Thank you for this insight

Great review, Thanks for the infor. I purchased one of these a month ago and am still learning the guitar.

That many guitars and you is sick 😂

Great video man

Good to know see comment on Video1 in this Essential review... also strap SB charges 60$ for its version!

TY as mentioned by others YOUR review was the only useful discussion about the new Essential = affordable Stranberg. Would like to see an update in time re' sonic palette of the 5 way switch combinations and whether you were able to solve the volume (? any height adjustment of the bridge pickup possible?) and your demo of different playing styles after you've had a chance to discover them. I do finger-style acoustic mostly but am using a tele c SD humbuckers low action due to a hand injury. (Also a huge fan of Elixers...) so if you could mention action it would be great to learn. TYKenn Harris Desert Stories and other albums on YT 🍎 Spotify etc in case interested. Be Well Kenn🎸😎🎼

Do you know what is the fret size on this guitar?

haunting tone!

its an odd thing maybe, but i been interested in the Indian FTR and this Katana...and range is one of the things that i been trying to see, since i ride with some cruiser dudes who got baggers and can go a ways... and info is nice to know....this video...at one point speaker is going on about the size of the tank in liters, then right after he says MPG...G...gallon...and then don't convert the liters size to gallons...i know it isn't hard to do, but i watch these vids so i don't have to think. It was then i just skipped to the end to see the range and am now going on my way.

Thanks for uploading!

First review by a real user on KZbin ! I was waiting for this , thanks ! 🎸

When you run the string through the bridge you need to kink the end so you can get it. That is a fairly common need if you have a string retainer. That kink will also help with the nut. It also helps to work with the guitar flat on the table. That metal disk keeps the string from getting cut by the grub screw. It is not supposed to be glued down, and does need repleced eventually. On the hioshot equivalent nut it is very easy to cut your strings in the nut. Those disks are Teflon coated delryn. You want to loosen the strings then, unlock the nut. You want to put the string in without 1.5 turns on the tuner before it comes off. That will keep the ball end from sticking out. Everyone has the same issues you had with the 1st string change.

Thanks🎉

Thanks for making the review. Nice job!

I just got mine yesterday. I agree with everything you said and love the neck already. I only had 1 issue and that was intonation on high E string which I will try to fix later today. I really appreciate the heads up on changing strings. Excellent review!

Duder!

De-cat the exhaust, get a belly tank made for where the huge cat sits,more MPG and upwards of 175mile range, 2hrs safe cruising distance!

Yeah

Just got one myself

I was born 20 years ago

Hell yeah dude that’s rad

man, idk how this ended up in my recommended, but fuck yeah!

Keep it up brother!

❤very nice. Awesome

Hey, your microphone is really great, which one do you use ?

Great test, I am looking at the Katana for April 2024 ready for next season, I am getting one of three katana,gsxs1000F or the naked gsxs1000. Going for at least a 21 plate for quickshifters really, how are or did you get on with the bike after run in.

The Coolist hunk of Cheese ever! So stupid it's Genius!!

Moto tan potente y este hombre maneja despacio como un anciano y con esa voz que lo duerme a uno...PESIMA SU RESEÑA 😡😡😡😡

Dial Down The Neck Pickup By Lowering it ..

They are not all sold out. The original batch sold out but all retailers are taking pre orders and its not a limited Edtion its going to be a core model .anyone who buys one of these from someone flipping at an upcharge is wasting their money . Most retailers have shipments coming.

Hi great review btw i have a question When you are in the middle position and put all knobs to 10 do you notice a lesser volumen? Because i got mine today and when i put both volume on the same place it "activates" the out of phase, is the same on yours?

beautiful guitar! congragulations!

Can you play a jazzy tune? Lianne la Havas?

Would like a longer review when you had it awhile.

Nulissime !

Thanks for sharing Dude. Picked up a Standard recently “used” but not abused. 🤩 First heard of Metallica from “Metal Massacre” album 82’; knocked my teenage ass to the floor 🤣

if all you do is play it heavily distorted, compressed, with high gain, then you really could use any electric guitar with humbuckers to basically produce the exact same sound

The Japanese make the best guitars imo

why would you take this iconic guitar and play metal thrash to demo this??? Play blues!!!!

Great guitar man 👍is this the custom shop version?😊

They’re not sold out as they are not a Limited Number. They are part of the Core Lineup. I see lots for sale so I don’t see how anyone could be charging more for them. The store(s) you checked might be out of stock but they will be back in - not Limited Numbers

Floods has the best solo ever

doing the lord's work on this video. thank you!

"And, uh, yeah". I don't think you realize you add that to the middle of every 4th or 5th sentence lol

I'm about to sell my Monster and buy a Katana. I saw coincidentally you used to have a 796! Besides obvious power, how do you find the Katana in comparison for comfort, ergos, handling?

I get more than 210 miles out of my '06 750 katana, so the 12 litres in this is ridiculous for what I'm used. I love the looks and style but the range is just too bad. Suzuki should get it up to 18.

Hi there, where did you get the mirrors?

Thank you for the video... nice bike...
