My New Favorite Guitars!! | Balaguer Typhon

[@Horcruxxx-xn1ej]

That opening riff/mix had me crowd killing my computer lol so sick 🤘🏼🔥

[@IndyRockStar]

I agree. I've learned to put locking tuners on all the guitars I depend on especially if you plan to play on stage. Changing strings on the fly without them is next level frustrating.

[@stevenm78]

Wow!!! I have to say I’m very impressed with the brand. I really dig the white one you own with the reverse headstock. You also have some great chops to compliment the guitar. Great review. 🤘🏻

[@ivanbailon7161]

The silverburst model is awesome 👌🏻🔝 Balaguer built great guitars.

[@metalgear74]

The typhon with a floyd and maybe some kind of pointy head would be perfection IMO. Love the body shape and bevels on that one!

[@Werecatyouth13]

Love the explorer shape and looking to get one as my next guitar. The balaguer pickups sound killer too.

[@garrettboomerbender]

How does it compare to a gibson explorer in terms of weight, proportions, and size

[@andrewbrewer3050]

Definitely a brand on my bucket list!!

[@stephan2003]

Both amazing guitars but the forearm bezel on the white one makes me want one so bad. I wish more explorer shapes would do this. Solar is the only other one I know of that does.

[@massttrshrdrharmonicminor2002]

I have made several guitars on the website

[@sixstringdisciple777]

I've got the gas for another Balaguer, absolutely love my Vega's neck 💜

[@Turbo-D]

give me that guitars, the pickups are just too hot for you 🤣 you improved your soundquality in a great way! greetz from germany

[@tannertankersley4441]

Man was hoping for a demo of the cleans

[@sakidickerson]

I love explorers not very picky about when brands have their own little spin on the body shape I didn't like these at first but actually you know what I'm going to put a couple in the cart in the custom builder LOL

[@IndyRockStar]

i'm going to order a neck through custom version. I was trying to decide between the flat top and bevel cut, and after seeing yours I definitely know I want the flat top.

[@thedanksavatron7782]

Nissssssssssssssssssce 🍻 Explorers are my fav shape! Balaguer definitely on my radar!🤘🏻

[@denverrandy7143]

Thanks Kyle for the kickazz Riffs brotha!!!👍🤘

[@marcuslangford4679]

First time I saw you attempt a solo. I don't feel so bad about my rhythm playing now.

[@denverrandy7143]

Love Balaugher or however it's spelt,just to rich for my blood!!!👍🤘🔥

[@therisenatlas]

I'm trying to decide between one of these or a Gibson explorer. I'm not sure what to get!

[@iwannarockon2010]

Sounds top notch! 🤘

[@girthydoinks]

I love my Balaguer Diablo baritone 7, awesome guitars. Dogs > people aswell

[@bucketfeet6570]

How long does a custom order take?

[@troyfrink]

For those of us only semi-belligerent amateurs who play power chords but also play way up high on the tiny strings and go meedly meedly meeeeee, how's the upper fret access?

[@tobins6800]

Love that entire description. Me? I'm all down for the chug life.

[@bustertrocine9124]

What Guage strings do you use? I like your Channel.

[@JoelCSabo]

He told me on FB the other day that he uses 11-52s on 24.75" scale and 11-50 on 25.5" scale. Weirdly similar to my own stuff, so yay for me.

[@TrickyPickins]

@@JoelCSabo he must never bend, lmao. I used to use 11s in standard, as soon as I start doing anything with bends I switch to 9s and my fingers thanked me.

[@JoelCSabo]

@@TrickyPickins I am also in E standard most of the time and will freely admit 11-49s on a 25.5" scale take more willpower for bends at first. I can't speak for Kyle, and I'm not the bendiest of players, but it IS workable. Plus tighter strings give me better chugs. Chugs are the game for me. I use Metallica's "Fight Fire With Fire" verse riff as my tension/chug test.

[@TrickyPickins]

@@JoelCSabo I had my E flat guitar set up with 10s and they were really easy to bend/vibrato, so I tried 9s on my standard guitars and it turned out I liked it better. I tend to get Heavy low strings to compensate for the lack of chugs on light strings, but my preferred brand (Elixir) has been having stock issues, so I had to settle for normal string gauges for a while. I started out with 11s because the first set of strings I got when i started guitar were 11s, and just gradually moved to lighter guage strings.

[@TrickyPickins]

What fingerboard radius does Balaguer put on their guitars? The Custom builder on the website doesn't list it as an option.

[@sixstringdisciple777]

16"

[@JoelCSabo]

Comfy C or Thin D neck profile?

[@BackyardRonin]

Hey Kyle, just curious on what the scale length on these are and if you had a preference

[@ErikC9243]

Hi Kyle, I am ordering a Balaguer typhoon. I want it for 80’s type tone. I was going to order the Evergreen pickups. Just wanted your thoughts on the Balaguer pickups you like.

[@belligerentamateur]

Those would work great for that. Hot PAF with a scoop

[@richardmontgomery5701]

What is the neck thickness compare to? 60's slim for example? I hate a 50's. Weight? Thanks been looking for more info

[@belligerentamateur]

Depends which you get. The D feels thinner and more modern to me. Weight of every guitar will be different.

[@asizeablebear]

To be fair, dogs are pretty much the best.

[@zeekmx1970]

I despise them.

[@belligerentamateur]

Thanks for the shinfo

[@zeekmx1970]

@@belligerentamateur - I didn't feel that way about them before Alpha of Ghost acted like a jerk. Now I can't even stand to look at them.

[@metalsucksray8385]

That's reasonable. Bullshido code dude here isn't helping much either...

[@cast390]

Cats, not people... : p

[@FartCoffinStudios]

Man those are some beautiful axes. I'll always be a sucker for the explorer shape.

[@deadmaydie]

Nice riffing, beautiful guitars. ;-)
