I subbed to Andertons years ago, mostly because of captain my captain. But unsubbed from Rob Chapman and Chapman guitars for 2 huge reasons. first of all, I love rob, subbed years ago also, listened to all his stuff on youtube. Now? No more...Why? 1st his Chapman line of guitars is a disgrace to all guitars. Out of box issues with thousands of models. Reddit etc full of poor fellows who cant do shit about it. Guitars of low quality and moving factories to save money + getting expensive while doing so. Crazy Rob. 2nd his bully attitude towards KDH to a point of death threads. Really disappointed in rob. Im done.

I don't often comment here, but I gotta show some love for the great Dane. Lee goes mega-impressed when Chappers guesses guitars by their pickups and neck profiles, etc... here's Pete guessing bloody acoustics right and no love, just a "get on with it" look. Pete, I was super impressed with your picking every bloody guitar right, and knowing your stuff with the range. That's impressive as hell, bro.

Having bought a Sire R3 (the cutaway version with the mag pickups) from you on the strength of the original video, it's nice to see that it still holds its own in this company. And indeed, i have been recording with it, and, (in the hands of a better player than I!) it records beautifully, and sounds way better than it should do at the price. My best buy of 2018. Thanks again, to Andertons!

i really liked the guy on the left he fulfilled the show more than all the presented guitars ..it's amazing how his play is that smart , smooth and rich yet smoother than his thin fingers...this is a subtle rich guitar player not that much boring shred ..just the right technique into the right emotion...wonderful. he remind me guys like Mark Knopfler and jeff beck where feeling contains the technique and not the opposite...like those so called virtuoso who shred until they don't know what they're saying!! lol. music is to say something with an instrument. anyway...good times in here as usual...thanks Captain.

Glad to see the Danish Pete being challenged! Ariel is not just darn good on the guitar. He's quite eloquent too. Guitar #2 Sire (a dreadnought) and the last guitar - the Sigma (also dreadnought-sized) sounded best - and that's on PC speakers over KZbin! It must sound amazing in the Anderton's studio. Pete used to be a demo guy for Taylor - no surprise then he spotted it immediately (see the earliest Anderton's videos with Pete and Lee). Merry Christmas everyone!!! =)

Not a $500 acoustic, but I’m impressed with the PRS Angelus. I picked one up for $525, and at roughly 5 years old, it is alive. Amazingly consistent. It sounded way better than my Breedlove, which in the same timeframe seemed to have lost some of its harmonic ability.
