11:50 Unfortunately, these Relish pickups look like they are using a proprietary baseplate for the pickups (no side mounting tabs). That said, any pickup modifications would limit the Player to only Relish brand pickups. 😐

@edo.164815 сағат бұрын
They sold the quick pickup tech to at least one other guitar company. You can get guitars with the same pickup swap tech from "Cream T" in the UK. Their guitars are excellent too (own one of the older offset models without the pickup swap and it's awesome).
@MashaT229 сағат бұрын
I think Samurai Guitarist or another big KZbinr recently made a video about Relish - like in the last couple of months, as I recall. Sounds like they’re aiming to relaunch Relish for business again. But you are correct that Relish was not in business producing any guitars for several years.
@ericbgordon157513 сағат бұрын
That Hendrixian chord is a 7th with a #9. That Relish guitar kind of reminds me of the banana yellow BC Rich solid body model that I was sold in June 1997. It's in the offset aspects of this guitar's shape. The novelty of being able to swap out pickups does have its appeal. I would probably enjoy it a whole lot more than coil splitting.

@catmandoodoo79039 сағат бұрын
The main reason Relish went bust is because you have to trim the pickup wire so short that you can never use the pickup in anything else. Unless you want to get into splicing.
@mikeomatic99056 сағат бұрын
I think only licensed shops like Sweetwater could put in non-Relish pickups too, at least initially. (I know you could get third party harnesses, but that’s not a great business model.)
@catmandoodoo79036 сағат бұрын
@ yeah, that sounds familiar. There was one near me here in the U.K. Sold a package of pickups in the harnesses for about the same price as one of the Trinity guitars. Was a bit daft. I actually think Trogly got stung badly in this video.

@joermnyc17 сағат бұрын
Those push out pretty easy, maybe too easy? There are slightly better swap-out options out there from new European companies, where you twist a knob on the back of the pickup to unlock it and then pull out the pickup, so there’s no worries about playing too hard and “whoops”.
@StreetPreacherr5 сағат бұрын
That's a GREAT tip that I try giving to friends who've just started with guitar. Learn the 'regular' chords, then practice switching between them, and just try LIFTING different fingers and you'll usually end up making a legitimate different chord, which adds variation and makes you sound WAY better than you are! Like strum an Am, then lift your INDEX finger, and suddenly you're playing an Asus2. Or strum an E, lift your Ring Finger, and you're playing an E7! And you'll also be practicing 'pull-offs' & 'hammer-ons' without even realizing it!

anyone who's had a tablet with those magnetic connectors for a charging 'port' knows how long the don't last and how problematic they can be. But, this idea of hot swappable pups has been tried a number of times before and never caught on or gained many fans - it's just a gimmick and not a thing anyone really needs or wants. It's nice to see these oddball things though, and I'm sure it's probably made better than a modern gibson.

Don't really know you got a great pickup why change it. Just saying, easy work for you tonight. Those crazy Swiss they make good cocoa. Must have been a player, if it was worn that much. Weird if it ain't broke don't fix it. Thanx Trogly I guess. Well it doesn't sound half bad. Very clean.

U do what I use to do. Try making ur guitar strap shorter so the body of it centers a little higher. Pull the guitar over to the right as well. So it will sit a little bit higher and to the right. Will be much easier playing blackend. Sorry I wanted to tell ya that because I just picked up guitar again this summer and that’s what I discovered for myself. I started in 5th grade. Fell out of practice for a looong time right around 18 years old (37 now). Completely obsessed with guitar all over again. I have to play every single day or my whole week gets ruined 😅😩😭😂❤️
