If IKEA made a guitar... BLUE LAVA ORIGINAL Guitar Review

[@davidpineda6570]

Thanks for the comparison i like how natural the blue lava original sounds

[@DontBeSoRambo]

I have lava 2 - I love this guitar, I think it doesn't sounds as good as a big wooden guitar, but I prefer to play Lava anyway.

[@danielbura3549]

Same guitar, same prefers

[@leeg75]

The effects come across more on the carbon fibre but the laminate sounds more natural acoustic, I have the lava me 2 and love it, had it for about 4months , play it an hour at least a day and have only charged it 3 times

[@GuitarZero2Hero]

Yup love the battery life on the L2 system!

[@asapsongy3203]

I actually like the reverb on the Blue Lava more suprisingly.

[@larsfrosznielsen3536]

Thanks for a great revue, all my questions were perfectly answered

[@puebloruizrecords8255]

you play so nice, i saw a few videos of yours, every note, chord is in the right place at right time. very inspiring. May God bless you!

[@johne.1011]

Wow...first guitar review from the beach! I think these guitars are great for people who are outdoor a lot or those who travel much . On board efforts certainly make them stand apart from other brands. I'd give them a thumbs up! Mahalo Dave...

[@GuitarZero2Hero]

Thanks John! Hope you're well!

[@scottbecker3485]

Totally leaning towards the smaller model you featured so beautifully. Thanks for clarifying the pros and cons! Do you think the Blue Lava Original will still sound good when tuned down to C# standard tuning, perhaps with thicker-gauge strings to compensate for „looseness“?

[@waltergandra]

I got a Lava Blue touch... I am a newbie... But felt the action really high... It has adjustments that you can do, adjusting the truss rod, but still, too high to me... I am considering taking it to a luthier... Would that be too much? Thanks!

[@Caicorre]

Recently got mine and am thinking the same thing, the action on this is just way too high, I’ve tried tuning the truss rod but I don’t think that was enough and I’m just afraid of breaking it. Did you end up taking it to a luthier? Was it fixable?

[@lynhbn]

@@Caicorreyou need to rub and file the bridge and the saddle. Adjusting the truss rod does not help much. Every guitar store can help you on this

[@carlosmingeli]

When are they gonna come up with nylon strings ?

[@OkinawanPride13]

5:48 You made me laugh 😂 amazing guitar teacher and hidden comedian😂

[@somedude8604]

I'm not sure that was supposed to be much of a joke. You could say it was a PowerPoint pun but I don't believe it was.

[@OkinawanPride13]

Hey! I’m thinking of buying the Lava Me 2, but my issue is the truss rod being non existent! Would it be a better option to purchase this Blue Lava Original bc of the truss rod? I also prefer to not have a touch screen so that’s why I am deciding between these two! Any info helps!

[@GuitarZero2Hero]

Hey Owen, Personally I like the tone of the Blue Lava original better. The LAVA ME 2 is setup with a plek machine so the setup is pretty spot on and being carbon fibre it won't move much, but you're right there's no way to adjust if you want to down the line. The LAVA ME 2 has slightly better ergonomics, feels good on the lap with countoured body. But other than that, I prefer the blue lava original because of the earthier tone. Cheers

[@OkinawanPride13]

@@GuitarZero2Hero thank you for your response! Final question. How long does it last? The free boost system??

[@GuitarZero2Hero]

@@OkinawanPride13 The battery is pretty good on it. I can't put an exact number on it but I reckon I only had to charge it every couple of weeks if I was playing once a day. Just uses micro-USB to charge

[@alexbalhar7016]

hi, what is the name of the song at 7:41 please? :). By the way, I just wanted to say that you make great videos.

[@ledlogas4757]

the lava original really sounds warmer

[@paolocilia2163]

I have done a test with Classical Strings (folk d'Addario) on my Lava Me 2 and sounds good. Incredible playbility. Do You think on Blue Lava could be more near to a Classical Guitar? Thanks.

[@JenandJohn]

Dave it's Ian. I'm thinking of changing down to 11 rotosound custom light phosphor bronze strings mainly as I feel the stock strings sound flat at high e & B area plus for more comfort. What's your thoughts.

[@ericfletcher8065]

Hello would the lava guitar and a spark amp be the perfect travel combo?? And what would you buy

[@chrisjanwust]

Are the sound demo's plugged in or not? They sound amazing, but I'm wondering if you just have a really good mic. The ME 4 sounds very processed by comparison.

[@GuitarZero2Hero]

Hey Chris, all demo's are miced with a rode NT1 :) Not plugged in

[@panzaicito]

How is the space between frets in comparison with an acoustic? I tried the nova go and it's too small.

[@amit1732]

I'm really stuck choosing between a PRS SE A60E and Lava Blue Touch .

HI,I'm interested in how it feels like to play, is the neck comfortable as in other brands like Martin etc.

most people think martin’s necks are to thick btw

Ooh, everybody needs some time on their own Ooh, don't you know you need some time all alone

[@gibbbo63]

I have a problem; my blue lava touch guitar will not connect to any of my Bluetooth devices. I contacted blue lava and they told me that they have not developed that technology yet???? Well, what the Heck, they have ripped us off. On their website it doses state WiFi & Bluetooth. Man, these guys are false advertising this product lying to customers via saying it has WiFi & Bluetooth on their website. Don't buy this if you really need to connect to your Bluetooth speakers because it does not have that capability. Ripp Off's

[@cristitoantonionicomedes9003]

Can u make a tutorial of hotel california pls i love that song

[@deaconroehl8461]

have you ever plugged that guitar into an amp and recorded with it

[@marcusnahring4127]

is it possible to connect the guitar to a seperat amplifier ?

[@GuitarZero2Hero]

Yup you can connect it to an amp

[@joahsprenger]

Will it also sport the reverb and chorus through through the amp signal?

[@GuitarZero2Hero]

@@joahsprenger yes it does

[@JenandJohn]

Is there a separate lead jack on the wooden lava like a standard acoustic so you can plug it into a separate acoustic amp

[@veteranos5984]

Do you think the acoustic version can compete with guitars worth €400/$380?

[@WalshWins]

Buyer beware 🛑! I bought this guitar 4 months ago and the freeboost pre amp no longer works after only casual and delicate use. The only tech support with this company is through email. You will at most get one response per day usually during overnight hours from a person overseas giving you one troubleshooting step to follow at a time. I got a troubleshooting video that wasn't in English. Guitar is under "warranty" for one year ,but to fix their defective product, I have to pay to ship it back to them for repair. I loved the sound of the freeboost when the guitar worked, but this is not a quality product from a quality manufacturer.

[@steviebuoy320]

Can it be plugged in ?

[@GuitarZero2Hero]

Yes :)

[@matheusdiniz3743]

Amazing video man, I’m thinking about the blue original and the one with the touch screen.. I think I’m going with the original 🙌🏻 If you don’t mind me asking. How long the battery of the blue with touch screen lasts? And do you know what strings do the they come with? .12??

[@GuitarZero2Hero]

The blue lava with touch screen doesn’t last as long as the battery in the L2 system (makes sense as it’s powering a computer and touch screen!). I found it to give about 3-4 hours of play time before needing a recharge (Blue lava with touch screen) Comes with 12-53
