Dude you are so lucky to have all this rad gear. It shows that hard work pays off and it couldn't happen to a nicer dude.

[@SonicDriveStudio]

@shredenvain7 thank you so much for saying that. I really appreciate it! It's hard work but it's the best job I could have wished for! Cheers, Jon

Joe started this company as a dream, being an amazing guitarist himself. Its so cool to see what hes been able to do. The semi-custom option is AMAZING for higher level players who dont want to commit 6-8k for a major brand custom build. Top notch stuff!

[@dylanbroadbent4517]

I have the exact same Balaguer on the way, and I'm so stoked! Great video Jon, hope you love it!

[@SonicDriveStudio]

That's awesome!

[@amateurguitarnerd]

Love that roasted neck with black inlays. It really stands out! Awesome guitar! 🤘😎

[@HighImpaktAudio]

Jon! I'm so glad to see Balaguer make it onto your channel. I love them as I've probably told you a million times by now haha. Glad you are like the Espada so far! 😄

[@the_red_channel]

Balaguer is a super guitar company. Great building quality and obviously, the full customization is awesome! I own 2 (an Espada and a Thicket) and love them!

[@reQuiem249]

Balaguer is so awesome! I have two semi costum builts, one Espada and one Thicket. Can't wait for you to demo this beauty!

[@LonelyRocker]

And the collection groweth!!!!

[@SonicDriveStudio]

It doeseth!!

[@KaiDown]

You already know I'm all about that 🔥

[@jakeusurungus]

🤘❤️🤘

[@lattjeful]

Balaguer makes great stuff! I have a semi-custom Diablo from them that I ordered a few years ago. It's my favorite guitar.

[@Demonik44]

that edward is amazing !

[@Demonik44]

Nice guitar !! And Happy Hollidays !

[@SuddenSoundStudios]

Sweet guitars! I hope you're feeling better soon! Happy New Year!

[@SonicDriveStudio]

Thanks and best wishes to you too!

[@Fret-knot]

Nice couple of axes! Happy New Year!

[@BarryNardoneAnimator]

That Edwards is beautiful! I would love to see you do a video on that one, doing a deep dive on it and talk about how it compares to the Gibson LPC that you sold.

[@E0lan]

I'm lucky enough to have a '20 Espada from their Euro-exported run, in rustic black with an ebony board. Since I switched its pickups for a pair of BKP Nailbomb/Cold Sweat, it rips. One of my favorite guitars so far. Enjoy it, John 🤘

[@SonicDriveStudio]

Wonderful, thanks!

[@rangerdoc1029]

I've been sick with this not-flu for 3 weeks. It's like the gift that keeps on giving

[@SonicDriveStudio]

It sucks. After 4 weeks I'm still coughing

[@ozgurovec]

Get well soon man, nice guitar!

[@SonicDriveStudio]

Thank you!

[@TheMelodyofChaos]

Edwards are cool, yours looks dope congrats, it would be cool if you check Navigator at some point. That Balaguer looks nice too, I heard wonderful things about Joe Balaguer and his company, looking to see what are your toughts on those two.

[@KreativeDevices]

🔥 Interesting looking guitar

[@johnfinlay4963]

You need some good Rum in that hot Tea. 👍👍🎄🎄

[@Sven.Jeschke]

Ha! I also just got an Edwards LP - a Standard in Cherry Burst. I put EMGs in it and it has very quickly become my favorite guitar. I‘m sure you will love your Custom, Jon. Enjoy!

[@SonicDriveStudio]

I changed the pickups but this thing is absolutely amazing!

[@sixstringdisciple777]

I support this

[@the_hippykiller22]

We want a review of the Edwards as well! I own one of these as well as other Edwards and ESPs and it's superb. Why did you sell your Gibsons?

[@jakeusurungus]

🤘❤️🤘

[@Sticky_Tea]

I sold my Edwards and I still miss it :(

[@SonicDriveStudio]

🥲

[@Openkasket-n1]

I'd like to see you plug into all those Amp heads at once ...😅and do a Micheal J fox...baaaaanch😅

[@seanwallace7517]

I’ve been interested in ordering a Balaguer but I’m worried that I’ll order one and not like it. I’m looking forward to seeing your review! Just out of curiosity, why did you sell your Gibson’s?

[@SonicDriveStudio]

Good question: I don't want to make a big deal out of it but I just would rather play more modern guitars from other brands

[@popskustom7382]

What happened to your Gibson LPC? I remember when you got it, you were so excited!

[@SonicDriveStudio]

I ended up selling it. This will take its place!

[@popskustom7382]

@ did I miss this? Have u discussed this on the channel?

[@SonicDriveStudio]

@@popskustom7382 I have not. Don't want to make a big deal out of it

[@popskustom7382]

@ right on

[@ocdanthony]

Why not? ​@@SonicDriveStudio
