[@andertons]

Maybe I should have made the marking clearer in this video. Jamie’s scores are based on how much he personally liked the guitars & which he’d be most likely to use/play. The scores don’t reflect build quality, and it’s just Jamie’s opinion. And don’t forget - all those “you’ve won something” comments that look like they’re from Andertons are ALL a scam. Cheers, Lee 🤘

its not a secret.. modern guitars are just waaaaaaaaaaaay better to play.. all the modern ergonomics plus practical specs that just makes sense.. traditional guitar makers just want to stay in the 50s.. i think the industry should really just move on and make modern guitars the standard..

​@@jojojojojojojojojojojojobIt's all about opinion and how a different person playing different genres enjoys the feel of a guitar. It's not as clear cut as you're pretending here.

[@275rambler]

@@bengribben569 The shorter scale length on the single cuts make them much more difficult to play than compared to an RG4 or Strat. The longer scale length of the double cuts require less string tension,making it easier to bend,slide,hammer on,pull off or vibrato.The term "suck" is comparitive.

[@bengribben569]

@@275rambler I have 9-42s on my longer scale length strats and 10-46s on my single cut ESP and they feel about the same, for me getting rid of the issue of string tension. Id argue your point on 'longer scale length requiring less string tension' is a bit backwards as with a longer scale length and tighter strings wouldn't most things become heavier and more difficult? I do see your point about the shorter scale length being more difficult to play tho, especially if you play closer to the bridge.

[@MaestroJericho]

I think ESP Eclipse/EC1000 in Vintage black is the ultimate modern metal single cut. I'd go Eclipse, PRS, Schecter Solo rules the market modern single cut market in mid-tier and high end guitars. Not to mention ESP/Schecters come with traditional models with PAF style pickups or the option for something more modern like Fluences or whatever. I do hope Jackson comes out with a USA Monarch line if their Soloists do better than the recent MJ Dinkys.

The pickups were killer too and really squeal well :) can't recommend it enough, and the flame veneer top looks incredible

[@stevendearden8030]

I've said it before & I'll say it again, Chapman Pro series look and sound awesome, but I can't bring myself to buy one until they start putting inlays on the fretboard. Despite playing for 35 years, I still prefer a guitar with inlays. Perhaps it was just a bad experience with a Jackson PC1 when I was younger, but the fretboard just looks naked to me. Pity, otherwise I would get one in a heartbeat.

[@liamh9814]

That purple is amazing. I had a cheap space motorbike toy in about 1974 that was that colour.

Can't believe you let this out the same day I went looking for a single cut "les paul custom" style guitar. LOL, I can't afford any guitar I like .

[@terryavery9918]

He NAILED IT, stating Ibanez, Jackson and ESP as the "metal" guitars. Those are also my top choices, so I am in agreement, considering the "Gibson" has been used for just about every genre, but the before mentioned exude the "metal" much better. If there is one other to mention is Schecter, to which also makes some kick-ass metal based guitars every bit as good or even better in some cases.

[@mdivo86]

Wow that Chapman looks sweet!

[@studiojace]

Nice!

[@MrShadowblue25]

Thar purple monarch looks fantastic

[@Bacontruffle]

Judging from his reactions, the Chapman had a big advantage of being a lot closer to his normally preferred guitars I do feel like this also proved that out of the more traditional modern LP-shaped guitars, ESP still absolutely kills it. I only recently was finally able to hunt down an Eclipse myself (and E-II, sadly very little shops in the Netherlands carry ESP guitars) and I can see why a lot of bands started playing ESP's. They are just very very refined guitars. Perhaps a bit too much, I personally like it, but I can see how some people feel like they're a bit too much the same. The binding on the one I got really shows the craftsmanship though, I have tried a good few Gibsons and there's always some scuffedness about the binding, or some toolmarks on the fretboard. None of that whatsoever on the ESP's, absolute perfection, despite having actual binding. (the binding on mine has already started going ever so slightly cream-colored)

[@nickbradley-sutton9960]

Gotta love some Jamie slays in an Andertons video

[@chrisggoodwin777]

I got a Kiesel CS6 to fill my LP-style guitar wants. it has the traditional look but more modern features I like, such as 24 frets, 25.5" scale, sculpted heel joint for high fret access, straight string pull through the nut, string-through body, tung oil neck finish, locking tuners, thinner neck profile, and thinner body to reduce weight (it's under 8lbs). if I were to pick one of these off the list, I'd probably go with the LTD or the Tremonti

[@SD0409]

I tryed an Epiphone Les Paul back to back with an Eclipse back when I was on the market for one or the other. I went with the LTD. The best decision ever. The best bang for the buck in my book. The thing costed a bit less than the LP I tryed out, but played better, stayed in tune better, just felt better overall. The only drawback, but you could say that for the both of them, was the weight. Both are quite heavy guitars...

[@Lord_Raptor]

I love Epis, but LTD blows them out of the water. Just as ESP does to Gibson.

[@Dave-nh8iv]

PRS Tremonti for me. The only guitar in my collection that was set up properly. PRS quality is consistently reliable.

[@jameslewis2635]

I can only imagine that Rob will be pleased that a fellow Metallica fan liked one of his companies design. Considering Jamie's fondness of Floyd's, I wonder if something like the EC1000-FR would be a good shout for someone like him or even the KH-3 Spider.

[@steves12strings]

EC-1000 w/SDs and the Tremonti (with USA Tremonti pickups upgrade) are two I have and are my downtuned hard rock and metal guitar favorites.

I love single cuts for all types of music. I've owned, or played, a number of these and I'd rank them: LTD, Chapman, PRS, Jackson, Epiphone, HB. My absolute favorite single cut is an ESP E-II Eclipse but they're definitely in a higher price category.

This was great but I would love to see how a Epiphone Les Paul modern would have done I'm soooooo intrigued by that guitar and is it worth getting

[@ReprobateMind]

I had a Epi Muse for a while and my first guitar was their special II. The special was a great starter and the Muse blew me away. Looked amazing felt amazing sounded amazing and was very versatile, like the Modern. I hadn't had much experience back then and I can't say what it's like for playing metal as I hadn't trained my light hand enough to play metal back then. Great guitars the "new (2019 whenever it was) line" from Epiphone. The pickups distort nicely for rock tones but if you want some serious metal stuff they sound a bit muddy under a lot of gain, but I imagine you'd be after an EMG equipped guitar if that's what you wanted. Basically the closest thing you can get to Gibson Modern for a couple grand discount. The finish on them can feel a little "plasticy" and stick to your hand but Nitro Gibson has that issue, it's thicker and Poly on the Epiphones but unless you've played a few Gibson's or nitro guitars you wouldn't even notice it. Was after the Caribbean fade Modern for a while but went with the Muse, Had an amazing time with it but it was too pretty and too pristine to play like i wanted so it sat on a stand for a month or so til I sold it. So maybe buy one used with a ding or two so you don't have that issue, probably get a hundred or so quid off as well. There is always the save a bit longer and get a low end Gibson, with a satin finish (better in my opinion I play the low end ones more than the glossy one) but that really comes down to, do you like the feel of the Epiphone in your hands, when you play it and will you use all the fancy, in/out of phase/ coil split features the high end Epi's have? If not you might be better with the low end Gibson, Now is a good time to look as I've seen Les Paul Studios up for around 600 which could probably be talked down a bit. I didn't use the fancy features and when recording the layers of the Gibson tracks sit nicer in the mix and don't muddy it up like the Epiphone can sometimes do, so I went for the low end Gibson option, but that doesn't mean you can't get the Epiphone and buy some Gibson/ other brand pickups and get better results than i do. Just go and find a shop that has one, take a day trip out and play a couple high end Epiphones and see, if you really like it you know which one is for you! The muse might be an option as well if you don't might the bright metallic, vaguely feminine finishes. It's all a personal choice mate no one can tell you which guitar you'll like I can only say what I've liked but you might hate them, just have to see. but I'd rather waste a train ticket to a big city than a percent of the guitar when you have to resell it if you don't like it, as they don't hold like Gibsons would. I was lucky I had the box and maybe put 25 minutes of play time on it so I could say it was basically new and knocked 40 quid off.

PRICELESS!! oh, for playing Metal bahhh! so funny! and makes sense. it's a great guitar, for other styles Next! Jerry's guitar is more versatile. I say, active pickups to passive are, as to, solid state to tube amps. just sayin'. It's ALL good. It's simply the new way toward people playing multiple styles on less guitars and/or less amps.

[@taz4965]

Surprised the Tremonti didn't score better as Jamie gave it a more expansive play with lead and pinch harmonics that he didn't really do with the others. Other than that, I think I just might start saving for another Chapman!

Basically, you get what you pay for and dude was super honest.

My 2008 ESP Eclipse emg81/60 is still my favorite guitar of all time. Will never sell it

When he whipped out unholy confessions it made my day

Nothing like a guitar that doubles as a home defense weapon.

[@FenderMarko47]

come on man, if you're planning to use your instrument as a weapon then you need a tele, at least that way you can still finish the gig

[@DomMcsweeney-DoomPlugs]

Awesome, but where's the love for @Alex Skolnick of Testament and his signature ESP single cut?

[@RealGengarTV]

I got to say, if your all about playing slayer, the PRS had some killer pinch harmonics and also has a floating bridge.. i really liked that

[@JamieSlays]

Gengar is my favourite

[@RealGengarTV]

@@JamieSlays i gotta say that the Jackson definitely has a "Gengar vibe"

[@youssoufdauhoo6634]

the video i did not know i wanted to watch

[@glenseigers3917]

Let’s be real here that chapman looks so good .

[@robsthedon]

Ace plays a les Paul. Paul Stanley plays an iceman. Super fan!

[@JamieSlays]

Yeh we realised after the video I was wrong haha

[@AlexiGVS]

For a brief second thought this is Ola Englund :P

[@Aokitadamitsu]

the Captain and Sir Shill!! it was already tuned down.. LOL I loved the way he did the normal licks on the ML-2, reached up and then down tuned it and got ugly with it.. very nice.. Jamie: I am very pleased i have never really played a chapman. Lee: I will send you one. you want?

[@PolarBimbi]

nice to see Jaimee again here. they definitely needed a metalhead with a light approach on things

[@JamieSlays]

Aww thank you! I really enjoyed being a part of this!

[@DickPicks]

Whatever he scores that SE (I’m about to find out) it definitely sounds ace and the only one so far that inspired him to play something different

[@lehmusic2675]

I have the same Tremonti SE and it rocks!

[@romerosneck]

It's nice to see someone play the same thing so you can hear a clear difference in the tone. How are you going to test guitars by playing different things on each one
