Only $240... The PERFECT GUITAR For PRACTICING!

[@tony_n316]

My first thought was... "Why spend that much, just go buy a Kramer Barretta Special for 199.00" But then Max started to point out the brass appointments and the big brass block. With those appointments, you're actually getting a better deal to buy the Slick guitar, and the ash body with that finish is just killer.

[@ILLRICARDO]

The sand blasted finish is more appealing on the slick guitar, but I would go for a Jackson js22 for a 180 bucks brand new.

[@sevenpointsixtwo9707]

The Kramer is just so classic looking, though. Looks better, IMO. BUT: I’d be interested to feel the neck on both to see which on feels better.

I can't express this enough, check their clearance section for blemished guitars. Some have very unnoticeable issues. I got a LP style from them with a finish crack by the neck that I would have to point out for anyone to notice. Getting it on clearance with a 30% off event sale code I looked up online I got it for about $150. Took the money I saved an just got one of their cases for it, which are really nice too. TLDR: Check their Clearance, check online coupon codes.

[@pattonfreak1038]

Can confirm

[@rickcrotts6673]

I bought "clearance" covered humbuckers from them for 20 bucks. They were identical to a set I pulled from Gibson except there was no Gibson part number sticker. Visual inspection and checking with an ohm meter pretty much all but verified they were the same. So in my opinion, Gibson's ceramic magnet humbuckers may or may not be the same units🤷‍♂️

@@waynewilcox444 They return to pitch pretty well I use the wammy on mine all of the time. works really well if you deck the back of the trem to the body and have the 6 screws up off the body about 1/8 of an inch from the body and make sure to lubricate the nut. I use the 54t to play Van Halen all the time and dont have issues with tuning when dive bombing using 9 to 46 strings. If you use your trem a lot look into highline saddles they keep the strings from sliding around on the saddles when using the trem I think they would be the 10.5 mm size to fit the 54t.

[@klauswigsmith]

That is a *beautiful* guitar. I love its simplicity. I almost *never* use the neck pick ups in my SG and LP and I *always* have the tone dialed all the way up. I'm beginning to think all those extra controls are wasted on a guy like me, so a guitar like this might be perfect.

[@terryenglish7132]

I use a volume and tone in 1 knob. Heres how: . Just double the value of the pot and use a LINEAR pot. The center tab goes to hot. Ground one outer tab. The other has a capacitor going to ground. Use the cap value for the original pot value, or whatever you like.....Rotation wise, CENTER is full on for V and Tone. Rotating one way is like turning down the V , the other way the Tone....As a whole it sounds around the same as a normal V & T unless you're into having the tone full off and the V just barely on.

[@killacoiler1707]

This is for all intent of comparison, Mr. Slick's take on a Kramer Baretta. The funny thing is that even as affordable as these guitars are Slick actually uses regular production models of these for live shows. It is not like any of his road guitars are specially made; he uses the exact guitar that you and I can buy for 240 bucks. That says something when the artist whose name is on the headstock rocks the same guitar in the same format as that of retail consumers; just saying. Thanks Max for sharing another hidden gem.

[@GonzGunner]

Hi Max, great presentation on the Slick guitar! You covered all the bases very well as to pointing out how it's a lot of guitar for the money. I totally agree. Glad you explained the details of the pickup too. It reminds me of a comment Warren Haynes made several years ago, which I use as a guideline for evaluating and purchasing a pickup; "A good pickup is a good pickup. There is no such thing as a rock pickup, a country pickup, or a heavy metal pickup. And don't use a pickup that "bites your head off", its not going to make you a better player". As to "Air Wolf", my mind always goes back to Jan Michael Vincent, and his "what could have been" career. To me, he had the talent and skill to put him with the all time greats of Hollywood, but he basically hurt himself with his own scandalous behavior and substance abuse problems, which ultimately did him in.

[@ARK-MO-Metal-Detecting]

I have used only Slick guitars for over 10 years. The worn white versions electric and an electric bass. I love them.

[@BrandonKJohnson]

[@ModernGolfer]

I have the same SL54T, in black ash. Looks like someone pulled a half-burnt log out of a campfire and made a guitar out of it, LOL. Very well made. Solid, and the brass appointments are just a 'step above'. Even ordered the same case, LOL. And it's 'friggin' ORANGE!' inside, to be sure! The only thing I've changed was to install shorted saddle screws as I lowered the action enough that the original saddle screws were scraping the side of my hand.

[@ubatooba8467]

I found these on the site a few days ago......had to buy one! Wanted the Cream one but it was sold out. So I bought a black one like yours, and the Desert Storm HSC cause not many left to choose from and I loved the interior on that one. Still waiting for it to arrive.....I'm sure I'll be happy with it. Thinking about installing my vintage Gibson Tony Iommi PUP in it and a Bournes volume pot......but maybe I'll leave it stock?

[@tommceachern3540]

While I'm not the "target market" for this guitar, "Information is Knowledge" and Knowledge is Priceless in so many ways (and ways seems inadequate to express what I'm trying to communicate)! The foresight you mentioned with the construction design to make this guitar easy to upgrade is a major bonus! Then there's the brass block. I think everyone knows where I'm going here, so at this point, I'll cease and desist!! Thank you for another great, informative video, Max. Please keep them coming!!

Max ...great review as usual. I have a slick SL57 and love it. I don't think there is a better value out there for a Strat style guitar. The only down side with these guitars ...is the waiting period for one to become available. They are in demand and you gotta get in line ...but well worth the wait. The available hard shell cases are a good value too. They sent my guitar in the case I purchased with the guitar ...all for around $350

I got a tele style Slick from gfs many many years ago now. In fact it was from the very first run of Slick branded stuff. I still have it although it’s been heavily modded and I rarely play it. But the swamp ash body, open pore super thin finish was really really cool and is why I decided to order one back then. Mine is quite heavy for swamp ash and needed a neck shim to achieve proper action due to the design of the wraparound bridge being sunk into the body. But It’s a cool guitar. Everything about it is fully modern other than body shape.

[@georgemcculler1453]

I bought a SL57 Strat style about a year ago and I LOVE the guitar!!! Love the open pore finish, brass saddles, brass sustain block and brass tuners!!! Paid under 200$ at the time prices have gone up(thanks Biden)! Havent' done anything to the guitar just added dark brass pickup covers and dark brass volume/tone knobs!!! I'm just going to do cosmetic things to the guitar like replacing the relic screws add some string trees and black out as much of the hardware as possible, I never liked the relic look. The SL57 sounds amazing through my Bugera head and Bugera cab!!!!!!!!!!! The 2nd position sounds awesome for rhythm and I actually like the neck pickup for leads so warm and clear sounding!!!!!!! Always wanted a Strat style guitar that wasn't an actual Strat and I think I found it!

I bought an SG style guitar from them about 11 years ago for $180.00 and it is pretty awesome considering the price!

Well you, Darrell Braun and Phillip McKnight giving Slick the Seal of Approval goes a long way. About this model in particular it sounds amazing and it has the looks but I think this is the ONE model we need a Floyd version of. Guitar Fetish makes a clone of the famous Gotoh 1996T - arguably one of the best Licensed Floyds - that they could "age" and a Slick Lead Pickup which is high gain. They could sell it for 30$+ and have a very decent axe for budget conscious EVH fans. Amazing review man, 10/10.

[@Droops24]

What perfect timing for this vid! I bought the same exact model in Crimson Ash a couple weeks ago and absolutely love it!; it has become my current go-to axe. Thank you Max for featuring Earl Slicks line of guitars, otherwise I never would have known of them. This guitar is killer!; especially for what you're paying. The body looks and feels incredible; love the deep texture/sanded stain work- and no worry about fingerprints! I am super impressed with the fit/finish of the neck and fingerboard (please not: the rosewood on my SL54's fingerboard is lighter than Max's). Frets are good; crowned and rounded nicely, however they certainly can be further polished. Neck is satin-smooth and fast; neck relief arrived spot-on, and has been stable thus far. I was able to get the action down to 3/64 without any dead notes/buzzing. I love the pickup; this vintage style aged humbucker can still be aggressive and very harmonic-rich for my playstyle. Also, you can achieve a nice range of tonal qualities with the volume knob alone . All the brass hardware feels solid and weighty: tuners are smooth, volume pot is smooth, brass vintage saddles are way cool, and the brass block in the tremolo is the cherry on top. For the downsides: The largest weak-point for me is the nut. The edges are very sharp and you certainly will feel it while on the first fret. Also the string slots need refinement; the slot spacing is fine, but excess material needs to be filed out (fortunately the guitar holds tune well and no broken strings thus far). I'll certainly remedy these when the time comes to change strings. Secondly, the screw-in tremolo arm has that cheap clunky slop like most other budget strats; so heavy trem users may want to consider a bridge swap or some alternate modifications. (The guitar still sustaines really well, however) Lastly: My guitar did come with a minor ding in the back-center of the neck. Fortunately, the neck is so smooth and the dent is in a spot where my palm never feels it; so it's only a minor nit-pick. It seems like it may have happened prior to shipping because my box was undamaged upon arrival (was packaged very well) Overall I'm super stoked over this axe. If you don't want to fork you the cash for the equivalent Charvel (which, according to Earl, released 2 years after his original single hum superstrat), or a high-end Kramer Baretta, this is a no-brainer. Plus the Slick lineup of guitars have so much character, all while playing/sounding great. Highly recommend!!!🤘🎸

[@christophert7251]

How does the neck feel on it? Is there any fret buzz on any of the frets? Are any of the frets dented. The reason why I asked these questions is I bought a fretlight guitar and it had those issues with it. I returned it and they sent me a second one with the same exact issues.

[@Droops24]

@@christophert7251 The neck feels great to me. I would say it's a thin C profile. Smooth satin back. It's certainly impresses me for a Chinese made neck. Fretboard is very nice, no issues with poor inlays/side markers (all sanded flush). No visible glue squeeze-out. None of frets on mine are dented, however I did do a fret rocker test and there are spots that have high frets (although very slight) The guitar shipped with fairly low action (5/64-4/64). As I mentioned, I have the action set a bit lower to to my preferred height of 3/64 and I have only one remaining buzz (D string, 11th fret), which I can only hear unplugged. Overall, super happy with it. Sorry to hear about your Fretlight's. I never played one, but them sending you another lemon has deterred me. As for budget guitars, I certainly love my new Slick Sl54T and my Harley Benton Cst-24; best budget guitar's I own.

I also have a SL57 (s-style) in surf green and a SL60 in yellow (like an LP Special with two P90s--now those are hot pups!). I had a SL51 (t-style) in butterscotch (IRL, orange) that I gave away. The SL60 with those great P90s is my favorite. GFS also sells Xaviere guitars, somewhat more traditional than the Slicks. I would really like to see Max demo a couple of those. If you subscribe to GFS, they will regularly send coupons for guitars, cases, parts, etc., ranging from 10-25% off some items. I got 15% off each of my Slicks, bringing the price down to about $219 each at that time.
