When I was growin' up there was no such thing as inexpensive and good quality guitars. Either they were the top brands or they sucked. Kids just starting out today, have great choices. It's a great thing.

[@eddiejr540]

Dude, I’m right there with ya…when you went into a store years ago, it was a wall with your dream guitars or the wall with the cheap shit…these kids today just don’t know!!!

[@deanevangelista6359]

Yup! The cheap guitars had necks that could never be adjusted right, rough frets, "untuners," scratchy pots, and microphonic pickups. Oddly, they all seamed to have a zero fret, which is a nice feature.

[@caiusmadison2996]

Danelectro, Hagstrom, Silvertone. National as well, with resoglass guitars where also cheap then. Plenty of EKO models, and FugiGekkikan guitars where on that market. Superstitions and country allegiances, has sustained that lie for ages

[@hoffy1003]

@@caiusmadison2996 In the 1960's those guitars were NOT very good. Yes, today they're well sought after and Yes, today people know how to make them playable and get a lot of good playing out of them. But in 1964 Hagstrom was, maybe decent. Silvertone sucked. Harmony archtop type guitars were crap but we loved em'. I had a Zim Gar. That thing went out of tune the moment I strummed it. The whammy bar would break a string. Then I had a Conrad. THAT was a bit better but sounded like garbage and made my fingers bleed. Yes, people love these old guitars from our past but mainly because their nostalgic. Not because they were good. There was always the exception, but mostly you went on to a better guitar after owning a Silvertone from Sears Roebuck. All that said, those guitars did the job of allowing us to learn. There weren't what we really wanted. As an 11 year old, country allegiance, nor superstition had anything to do with it. Those were NOT well made guitars.

[@Terrysoddy]

Yea I know exactly what you mean

[@burresseffects]

Damn. This is the first Eart to really grab my attention. I’m a Tele with humbuckers fiend and I love metallic green!

[@caiusmadison2996]

I been trying to find a Tele with a strat 2 point that isn't ridiculous for price. This is the first to rig true as candidate #1

[@danserdutz6700]

Got this guitar a month ago. Ive had dozens and am old timer. This one ... I did NO set up, just tuned and wow. The frets and neck are superb. If you are on a Tele kick, this one, for the money, is a fantastic value. I am also old school and recall the budget crap guitars from the 60s and 70s (Yes there were great ones but cost big bucks back then). I wanted the gold version but was out but also lusted for this green one. Its so good I play it much of the time ignoring my much more expensive axes. The electronics are fine but it is the action and playibility that makes this one a splendid guitar for most any genre.

[@leokimvideo]

If Pixxy is giving it the thumbs up it's a BUY

[@lesjuly]

Ok, U sold me. I just bought one (Blue) and I used the link. Thanks Steve !

[@Barbarapape]

A Tele style guitar with curves and cutouts in all the right places. Eart are making some great guitars if you keep way from the entry level models. I have an E-3s in purple fade, and it looks and plays like an expensive model from the well know brands. One for you to enjoy playing Steve.

[@duanewilliams7676]

I love how Steve really loves and appreciates guitars!!

[@MatthewFant]

I just literally bought the same one. Be here in a couple days. Love it. 🤘🤘❤️

[@craig.encinitas]

How’s it play? 🤘🏻 🎸

[@BoogyWoogyCreep]

wearing headphones, I nearly went deaf when you were opening that package! Holy SHIT!

[@JLindebergful]

Those SS frets come that way now (pre-cut-to-length/pre-rounded) and ready to just tap/press into the slots. They're certainly not taking the time to do that level of fretwork at this price point.

[@kennethm.3296]

I have the lower end eart strat model, love the neck on it

[@theshadowoftruth7561]

I have the Pink version. The neck is to die for. But I think it would have been even more beautiful with all black Hardware.

[@caiusmadison2996]

Sounds glamorous, like 80's glam style!!! Love it, exactly what I want right now.

[@fordhammie]

I do believe they're called ERRRT; Charvel esK foSHO! 😁

[@edgeofeternity101]

I bought the low level strat and I have no complaints. It plays as good as any upper grade guitars I have, but the sound is "limited". I even changed the stock pickups on my US strat, so I am picky. It's cool and I have no complaints.

[@sweetnsourchick1761]

Hey, Steve! Don't forget about us "dudettes"! We watch you, too! 👩‍🎤 🎸 🤘

[@johnkammerer2198]

I have two eart guitars - the headless with the trem (that is hardtailed now) and the HSS strat - love them both - nice review mr boston

[@rubentrevino6288]

Nice and it doesn't stink ! !!

[@drummer4hire12]

Great video! I love my Eart SSS Virginia. I wish them great success.

[@gtr1952]

That's amazing! That looks good enough to gig with!! Out of the box even! My last new Gibson required a level/crown/polish before I could take it out! PLEK is useless if set up in the machine wrong! (That was a 2017 LesPaul Trad Cherry Burst). These Eart and Sire guitars have amazing fret work out of the box!! Even a pup/pot/wire change and they are still a fraction of the price of a Gibson. I'm not bashing on Gibson either, I just had 2 clunkers in a row!! Too bad 8( JMHO, Peace --gary

[@eddiejr540]

Yea man…my 2010 Traditional is a big giant piece of shite…the neck moves so much I leave the truss rod cover off so I can adjust the neck before I play it 😳

[@eddiejr540]

Oh Baby…..that shell pink…freakin love it…rock on Stevie!!!!!

[@J0nny61]

Great review Steve, that looks like a very good value guitar. I'm amazed by the hardware, but the sound is all your own making. If you had a cornflake box and some elastic bands, you could make it sound good.

[@jimmitchell9841]

Steve....loved the review of the EART T-380. So much so that I watched a couple of times. Apologies if I missed it, but can you please tell me how you are getting those tones! Especially around 8:30-45. What amp/effects were you using? I think you even liked the sound if I am reading your smile correctly! Anyway....I am a subscriber now, so keep up the good work....I've watched several reviews of this guitar, but yours put me over the top, so I don't have a problem ordering from your link......but would love to find out the secret to that tone.....Thank you sir

[@SFBGuitar]

Hi Jim, I use software called TH-U by a company called Overloud. I use that for almost all of my videos.

[@mailvilla]

04/26/2023: I bought one in white, and I love it. The only thing that I would have liked more would be rolled edges on neck wood. Also, the round end on fret wires actually hurt my first finger. But, I can fix that with a jeweler's file myself.

[@jayteesgear]

Irr Tee 😂. Love it bud! Great playing as always and cool fretwork. Is it balanced weight or a heavy guitar?

[@curtisc9350]

Thanks Steve ! 🥺 I was trying trying to keep my GAS under control . 😉 LOL 🤣 The Wife is going to kill Me if another EART shows up from Amazon ! 🤪 I'll have to convince her it's a lot cheaper than the Wolfgang Special I've been dreaming about . 🙄 Cheers ✌️ #stevefromboston #eartguitars #eartt380 #knowyourguitar

[@johnsiggers1682]

Don't forget those Harley Benton's lol

[@cdavidlake2]

Eart is incredible.

[@johngregory7329]

Love the color.

[@gerberbernstein7360]

Stands for Electroacoustic Art Guitars, for what it's worth. Other headstocks have it as E Art .

[@DennisAlvarezMusic]

This thing is really spec'd out for it's price point. What a cool time to be a guitar player.

[@5urg3x]

The roasted maple on the neck is finished. What you’re feeling is the finish, not the wood. Ibanez uses an oil finish on the AZ series, but other builders use urethane.

[@williamcooper6069]

I'm personally not a fan of green guitars but I must say I really dig that color looks really good

[@riniones]

looks that is made in the same factory as the Bacchus universe or the Mooers guitars... very interesting appointments and look but also sounding great... nice one

[@basshoh]

Probably ..and they also make the new Sire Larry Carltons also.....they have the same exact cut aways and contours!!

[@bigalb8935]

Sounds real nice looks badass ✌️

[@anthonymiller3970]

Love the contours on the body. What about calling them Electric Art

[@DoggBone-iw9fb]

Just call it ear art

[@dennisellis968]

Eart may be after my HEART ,here on EARTH, with this one . Nice Green . pick up arrangement , nice hardware. sounds good.

[@picksalot1]

Good to know. I was thinking the name might be based on a name like Cort Guitars (Cor-Tek Corporation). Eart looks to be making some really good guitars at an affordable price.

[@ralphmunn1685]

That truss rod key is the shizz! I have their LP-style guitar, and I love it. Added a Les Trem II, roller bridge and locking tuners for a really nice rig that's still sub-$500!

[@I.M.Guitar-Nerd]

I was hoping it was going to be thier thinline with the wide range humbuckers.

[@chrislestermusic]

Nice demo. Fellow New Englander!

[@elevenAD]

Dude thats a friggin sweet guitar!

[@tomg3915]

07/25/2023: I have the telecaster body with tremolo or the EART T-380. I liked everything except, I did not like the recessed bullet fret ends. The actually are annoying and sometimes painful. So, I filed the fret ends down to be like all other guitar fret ends and it is great now.

[@paulvandijk2204]

I believe I checked the link to Amazon 2 days ago and the guitar was already unavailable hahaha....EART is doing good business I guess, but they deserve it...I have the headless guitar with stainless steel frets etc. and it is a great guitar! Also during the making of it I was in constant contact with the builder (China) for special wishes and/or information, it was very nice. Thumbs up for them!

[@Rainy78]

Thats one sharp guitar!

[@yetimatzenightcat8702]

Lololol, that was my first thought too, san dimas 😄👍

[@edigabrieli7864]

I own three Eart and they are fantastic. Eart is gradually increasing quality along prices I bet two years from now with their name established there will be custom models well above the $800 mark.

[@cflowers69]

Dig it, but would be awesome if they had a hard tail version. I would snap up two of these if they did.

[@joeblankenship377]

I might be settling for one of those instead of the Charvel tele I've had my eye on.

[@NelsonRodriguez_]

yeah man right at the very end you said eventually it's comes down to using a tall laundry basket to hold some off brand instrument or just five necks just chilling out waiting to be put back on a body yeah I need to get rid of something man it's pretty wild in my garage right now.

[@retropuffer2986]

That looks awesome.

[@sonsauvage]

Anyone whose owned one of these and is past the honeymoon period, answer me this: what is the hardness of the stainless steel they use for the frets? Is it comparable at all to jescar frets? How soft or hard are the knife edges on the bridge? The specs on these guitars are insane for the price. If they come from the factory with decent fretwork these are the deal of the century

[@rocinblues]

Great demo, is it me or are the pups microphonic?

[@lesterrodriguez2884]

Gorgeous guitar buddy

[@claudeimanuel]

can you do swells on the knob?

[@eoinjames4018]

I love that contour of were the neck heel meets the pocket only thickens at the last bit there is nothing worse than having about 3 inches of the heel exposed very uncomfortable

[@fcukeround]

I bought one after watching this video. But sadly mine was a lemon. Wouldn't stay in tune at all. I did like the feel of the neck. But my squier out played mine hands down. Sent it back. :(

[@dominicmangone9920]

Great review

[@wmfranz]

its cooler to unwrap, than unbox! either way, YOU RAWK!

[@gergemall]

Nice job. Wow amazing sound . Love Humbucker

[@Feverdream7777]

E - Art say the letter E then Art E art...like Electronic Art

[@eddiejr540]

Dude…give it up…nobody’s ever gonna say it correctly 😎

[@Feverdream7777]

@@eddiejr540 say it... say it for me... do it now. In your chair...say E Art...do it.

[@killacoiler1707]

Looks like a Wilkinson 2 post knockoff tremolo and Gotoh clone machines, but if they work good that is all that matters. EART is an affordable quality made base for a very nice playing custom. Their necks are amazingly comfortable and in my opinion much nicer than Squier stuff but not super shredder like a Wizard neck on an RG series Ibanez in this price point. Quite honestly they are on par with the 600ish priced Schecters as far as quality of craftsmanship. I believe you could do far worse for the same money going with a more commercially recognizable name brand. They definitely are light-years ahead of the guitars of yesteryear that were in this price range. I remember the days when a 350 to 400 dollar guitar meant more time tuning than playing, warped necks, scratchy potentiometers, and horrible sounding pickups. Those days are gone the quality of these housebrand and small guitar companies is all but ruining the market that was once dominated by Squier and Epiphone. It is great to have choices and quality at prices that aren't ridiculous for average players.

[@ernieb3626]

Thanks tons Steve. I have been waiting for this! a T with Humbuckers! Man I just dont know what color. I love the white if its not too white and I love the Gold too! Oh wait the burst.........lol ...............crap. anyway i will order it thru the link. Thanks again, you ROCK my friend

[@dericdomino]

no volume drop when you used the coil splitter cool

[@klopfer_im_baellebad]

Love my fender Tele, but this one has a lot of improvements

[@Ogscottyp]

Thru Amazon and Aliexpress.

[@mailvilla]

Just curious, what "make & model" is that red HH guitars on your wall?

[@Mr.Monster1313]

Old 1970s 80s stereo knobs ..lol Yes !!!!

[@Sloozer45]

Hmm, his sound is such that there's no discernible difference between the single-coils and the humbuckers. What is that about? Beyond that, i love Steve's channel, his vibe and his playing.

[@blkjckgtr3075]

Sounds Delisious Steve!the Kermit Tele!Very Cool!

[@studiotyson2963]

I’m already a big EART Fan - and I’ve bought many from the factory in China. Quality is typically very good. They’ve cloned all the big-name models over the years. Les Pauls, Strats, Telecasters, etc. The pronunciation is EART - like EARTH - without the T at the end. Yes, it stands for Electro Acoustic Art.

[@flathead7922]

Maybe the "H"?

[@brianpark492]

The eglp 680 sounds much better but this guitar feels really good.

[@brianpark492]

610 sorry

[@jrockofages5413]

What is your rig set up? Amp, etc

[@lawrencedavis5459]

i have the white version, its amazing

[@finoroverato7640]

Whats the weight of the guitar. Are the frets tall like 6105?

[@IanFrancisco-CAPianoman]

Not sure why people start with high gain tones. You can tell a lot more about a pickup by listening to clean tones. You can tweak any high gain sound to sound exactly the same regardless of guitar.

[@damienlancer]

Thats what we call a Jim Dandy. Top O the Morning too Ya Steve.

[@brianpark492]

This guitar is pretty good. Feels great sounds ok. I'm changing the bridge pickup. Not as good sounding as the eglp 610.

[@brianpark492]

Amazon is selling the LP for cheaper than this now. I recommend that you buy it.

[@blkjckgtr3075]

Steve I like the comfort cut on top!how much Canadian??lol!

[@Terry3Gs]

That looks & sounds nice !!

[@edlicari3909]

Wow that is a sweet guitar right there. I have a question….better overall quality on average, Eart or Harley Benton??

[@2nmingo]

im so close to getting one i really want it but im torn between the green and the honey burst

[@royyazzie6028]

Love it the way she makes sound TONES is what she have and your gonna have fun her 🎸😎🤟🤘👍😜keep on rocking HEAVYLY there sir guitarist

[@davidgerlach1132]

Nice video Steve. For 80s rock n roll, I'm looking for a good 3rd guitar, and I was really liking the Kramer Barretta Special (white), but I always wanted a Tele (gold), but don't have the money for it, at this time. How would you rat this Tele EART to the reissue Kramer Barretta Special?

[@Plisken65]

This or Jackson JS22?

[@davidwoods358]

Actually a really nice looking guitar ... with all the right options. I don't even like green, but it looks good on this.

[@Mr.Monster1313]

I like it..now they need to make the same guitar in a sparkle blue finish..and black hardware :)

[@robertwatkins8220]

Is this green metallic? Looks good but I can’t see the sparkle.

[@SFBGuitar]

It is metallic. It's not a large flake metallic, but it's definitely metallic, like Fender's candy apple red or lake placid blue.

[@kasnitch]

$499 in Can. at Amazon . I might have a go at a headless one in the fall .

[@trollmunchkinzm4364]

Lets hope they keep punching upwards for their price point and dont pull a gibson on the consumer!!

[@scottstanley380]

I bought one of these as well as the DMX-10 model and I have very little to gripe about.

[@Zsigmund]

Nice lookin guitar. nice knobs!

[@shckltnebay]

Usually ships within 1 to 2 months.

Where is it made? Indonesia or Korea?

Nice. May be worth mentioning Jackson and Ibanez make guitars under US $400 that are very good, IMO, speaking from experience.
