Let's face it, Rich, every guitar you try sounds great because it's you playing it!

[@charleshuguley9323]

I love the economy of motion in Rich's hands. His left hand seems to float back and forth above the fretboard while the fingers hardly move individually.

[@PhillipJ]

Rich you are the definition of smooooth!!! You make anything sound good!!

[@adriennelee1520]

that guitar sounds soooooo good... very soft like.. gentle.. interesting like a fine wine.. hehe

[@deHelli]

Hi Rich, wonderful playing! I love it.

[@myfavorites9686]

Wow. Well played 👍 and a great sound of this beautiful guitar 👏👏👏👏👏

[@SecretSauce8]

I'm glad they talked a little and compared this to the Eastman guitar. I'm trying to decide whether to get this or an Eastman 503. can't decide....

[@GordonZoot]

That is a fabulous looking guitar, with a sound to match.

[@sgazzz]

Gorgeous guitar, would love to win it this weekend!! Looking forward to meeting everyone there as well!

[@marcaskew61]

Love the solo!

[@PhillipJ]

I’ve had mine e for a few years now, it’s a great box for the money. Build quality is fantastic although the pots are already getting scratchy even after constant cleaning….cant complain tho, not for 600 with HSC. Great review Rich!

[@To.Si.Ma.]

Great playing and nice instrument.

[@davemeshamsr6000]

Nice looking and sounding guitar…what’s the price range? And is there comparable sounding guitar for less money? With a floater?

[@stevef]

Really Great Video. I have an LH EXL-1 from 2018. I guess my biggest questions are around the differences and is it worth it for the changes. It sounds beautiful. I wish I could play like you Rich. Such an economy of movement you have on that fretboard.

[@craigclu]

Sweet technique on a rig that I can relate to and afford, too!

[@Plekteret04]

I really like Koreian guitars. Yes, like the Gibson Johnny Smith George Benson used.

[@salgioe1595]

i have a 2004 exl 1 dp, with all the abalone. great, great instrument. if you can, check out (all in one) guitars, the 335 is excellent.

[@Eged282]

I had the same guitar and returned it. Much happier with my Epi Broadway although it’s a different animal altogether(it has mounted pups)..

[@revzone3544]

Gotta love the plumbers sink wrench headstock or you can open your bud light bottles with it..a proud moment for D'Angelico.. Hey Bill bring your guitar over I need to tighten my faucet nuts..

[@JackTheSkunk]

Does Wes play? If so, can he play on camera one of these days?

[@jordiserra3779]

SO? WHICH ONE YOU PREFFER, EASTMAN OR THIS ONE?

[@derbyd10]

How does it sound unplugged?

[@JackTheSkunk]

Sounds great, but it would be uncomfortable for me (too big(. I am going with their EX-SS.

[@jeffbrown3051]

Rich Severson, the real oldie, more like Tal Farlow class.

[@jordiserra3779]

it sounds a lot like the peerless monarch I had

[@williammelton2037]

After getting this 775 i may be spoiled to other guitars!

[@patrickevelyn8028]

Compared to a Samick Lasalle...?

[@patrickevelyn8028]

You didn't answer the question, it's ok I guessed it.

[@Jwt583]

Any idea who is manufacturing these for Dangelico? Peerless maybe?

[@patrickevelyn8028]

Don't know....beautiful for sure, but to me not a very strong sound
