Minsine (Bullstar) Tele Copy Unboxing and Review

[@jazzydog]

Beautiful tele!! Like the color!

[@OblivionAviator]

Must have had better luck than I did! I bought one of the black/blue ones off Amazon last week for $109 & am in the process of returning it. Bridge was improperly installed (sides not even); just far enough off that any attempt to repair/replace it would have been futile since the new screw holes would have been too close to the existing ones. That said, it was far enough off that the high E string was off the fretboard & the low E string was setting over 1/8th inch inside the fretboard. The tone knob was loose & falling off. The bottom strap button was loose. The neck had blemishes & knots in 4 different places. The action out of the box was water tower height. I wasn't expecting much for $109, I really just wanted the body & was going to mod everything else. I'm super disappointed that I couldn't even salvage that gorgeous body off of it. I'm exchanging for another one, but I'm all but certain the replacement will be the same way since I assume they all came from the same production line. Will see. 🤬🤬🤬

Good morning Guys, That's a good looking and sounding Tele-ish guitar and the price is unreal! A few new pick ups, an adjustment here and there, some good strings and you've got a pretty decent guitar for around a couple of hundred dollars. I kinda liked today's spacy backing track too. Thanks to all you Guys for another great unboxing/demo. Special thanks to Mike for the fun banter and honest feedback... and I can't wait for the video with him and Dan-O to drop! See you in a couple!!!

Thx again for that loud ringing E❣️and again a guitar at a unbelievable pricepoint - I have to pay more than 100€ for that pure wood and colors! Ok the pickup are not great but easy to swap. That take of the famous blackplate Tele is worth to be upgraded I guess. Thanks for this chaotic entertaining review 😎 and yes, i am in Germany and the Lamb lives on that little island called England/Great Britain in Wales 😂 and his original Fender Tele looks a lot like that Minsine 🤔

[@leodanryan966]

Thanks very much for watching and for clarification about whether or not you are in Germany or from Germany or both, and for collaboration with me that "The Lamb " is in or from Wales or both. 😉👍!

brill review as usual...well played Dan, Mike seems a really nice guy and can't wait to see the next vid with the fretless bass 😁 Leo: "take an extra stitch" creased me up 🤣 as seeing my daughter being born 34 yrs ago , i said that to the doctor who came in the check her , but said put another couple of stitches in please 😊 Always loving your channel 😄 edit: forgot to mention, that is a beautiful looking tele copy guitar 👍 cant get that brand in the UK

Thanks very much for watching as always David, and I'm glad I was able to bring a smile to someone else 😎👍!

[@birdman316]

Let's not have a wise crack spoil the show. Wink! Fun demo and that lipstick pickup is still a pig!

[@2dazetake]

Try to avoid the G string when holding that notty knot Dan, you already stated that, the case was impregnated, , planned guitar hood may be able to help,I believe that Tele handles those man boobs,very well, the action is definitely high,a couple of twist above that knot in the old truss hole , can relieve that stiffness.LMAO 🤣👍🎸

[@leodanryan966]

Uh oh, I have unleashed something 😉👍!

[@ArizonaMMJ]

The audio on this video seems really poor compared to your other ones. You might want to consider upping the audio with a little mic that can plug into the iphone or whatever you're recording

[@leodanryan966]

Thanks very much for watching, and I have been using lavalier mics including this video, but unfortunately Dan and Mike are both unaware of the noise it makes when they bounce their guitars off of them constantly and I have no visual feedback to make me aware of this either 😎👍!

[@raymondtuckerjr1886]

I'd call that color, butterscotch,if asked.This video is sooo upsetting. I thought I'd made up my mind to buy a different string thru Tele-copy, a Monoprice Indio-Retro in blonde, and now I'm BACK on the horns of a dilemma... I planned to buy this coming Wednesday, NOW what?

[@jagr9228]

How much does the guitar weigh? Its advertised as Paulownia I would have thought it would be light ! Thanks for the review

[@leodanryan966]

The guitar weighs about as much as a Squier Strat.

[@Vicos]

It appears that "Bullstar" is the brand formerly known as "Bullfighter." Maybe they should focus group their brand names with a US audience first.😄

[@leodanryan966]

Thanks very much for watching, I'm not sure that is true 😎👍!

[@Vicos]

@@leodanryan966 Take a look at B0CSFM1864 and you see the same strats you reviewed a few months ago. New name on listing, but pic shows bullfighter name on picks.

@@leodanryan966 I posted a response, but YT zapped it again because they recognized the AMZ code I typed. Check you your "spam" comments.

[@leodanryan966]

Thanks very much for watching. I did get a Minsine guitar with bullfighter tuners on it, but it was different from the bullfighter guitar we reviewed 😎👍!

Decent looking for the price, a little too soda drinker urine colored for me though , pickups almost sound like the tone knob on the guitar is all the way down ...i know yall play with the tone cranked up, but tele pickups and hardware arent so outrageously priced. Love peace ✌️ and chicken 🐔 grease.
