I really have a soft spot for cheap and sometimes crappy instruments because you can make music with almost anything, no matter how low the bar. Play with it, record it, edit it and sometimes you don't even have to do much. Each instrument comes with its own charme. Yes, even the REALLY bad ones. All it takes is... accepting it for what it is and make the most out of it. Be creative. And you'll be surprised what you can pull off with very little :)

I built my own S-type kit from Ammoon, even though it would have been slightly cheaper to buy one fully assembled. Then I upgraded the pickups, the tuners, the nut, and the pickguard/pickup carrier. And it still came out to less than $200, even counting the cost of polyurethane and stains and guitar-specific tools like a fret file and an action gauge. This is the guitar that I sampled for my (free) virtual instrument, Blue Jeans and Moonbeams. The only thing wrong with it is that I need to replace the 14th fret because I mistakenly did all my fret leveling with it not quite hammered all the way in, and now it's too low on one end.

Those "mics" for 6$ are really great for acoustic instruments. I've been using one of those for my classical guitar even in live setups and it's OK. The trick is that it's just a piezo element, not a real mic, so it's not that expensive to produce. Many electroacoustics use the similar elements, just in different shape.

Loved the video! Just to offer some constructive criticism, although I really liked the song at the end (it gave me chills), it was mixed in such a way that the sound of the DIY guitar kind of overpowered everything else, so even while intently listening with headphones I struggled to pick out the other instruments. While in a musical sense it probably sounds better the way you did it, I feel that it could have been more satisfying as a finale to the video if the mixing had put the instruments on more equal footing.

Funniest thing is that the same items are sold by Thomann under the Harley Benton brand. BUT: I’ve used this equipment for around five years now at home, in studio and live situations and it never failed me. My other guitarist in the band likes to make fun of my „Chinese crap“ while pointing out proudly on his 2,000 € Line 6 Helix which he pays over two years and can’t operate properly.

“One of these things is not like the other.” When I was a high school freshman (in Houston, TX), Einstürzende Neubauten came to town. My often overprotective-but strangely open-minded-mother would only let me go to the all ages show if she could check out the venue (Phideaux’s if I’m remembering right) beforehand. On the afternoon of the show, I went down there with her for the approval process. We arrived during soundcheck. The guitarist was on stage using some sort of handheld device to get this crazy electronic buzzing/whirring/grinding sound through his amp. Intrigued, I approached him and asked how he was creating this incredible noise. He revealed to me a piece of “gear” that I was wholly unfamiliar with. My mother walked up just in time for him to say, “It is ‘wibrator.’” I was ultimately denied attendance. To this day, I believe it was the “toy” that broke the camel’s back.

I'm not sure the strings have ever fully stabilized on the lyre, but I probably haven't spent enough time with it.

That melodica is cool, I used to have a very similar one that we actually used on stage quite often. I also had a glock I paid $35 for at a Cracker Barrel restaurant that did an entire tour with us. We would just mic it up as if it was a standard set of bells.

The worst part is I know that that first kit is like $120 and he got scammed. Granted, it might be showing Canadian, but still. Also, that little effects box is actually well reviewed and sounds pretty decent. But also, that contact Mike is very cheap to home make because it's just a piezo disc connected straight to a jack with a bit of double-sided tape on it

I don't know if he got scammed, but you can buy a Harley Benton kit on Thomann for less than half the price he shows here. I'm not sure what the fee for the delivery to Canada would be, though. Here, in Bulgaria, it would be about 10-20 euros.

I bought a guitar on Ali Express from a brand called NK. I think I had seen the brand on KZbin being reviewed. For a $250-ish strandberg knockoff, it was actually pretty nice. I've sold it since then (super light headless guitars are not my jam it turns out) but it proved to me that there is functional--even nice--gear out there for pretty low prices.

@@adamnovak7602 On wish they call it "TTONE KLON CENTAUR GOLD HORSIE"... It's a larger form factor pedal than the mosky and it resembles a shrunken real klon. There are some that look similar from various sellers that have treble knobs that cut instead of boost, so YMMV. It's cheaply made, but it is metal and sounds pretty good.

Seconding this, definitely have to go up 2+ sizes. Also, I saw on the listing at 1:51, it says 90cm as the size. That's only around 36" around, which if that describes the shirt and not the person's body size, is a US small.
