the sound of the guitar doesn't matter with distortion, I'm surprised you didn't know that

Basically distortion distorts a guitar to much that the actual sound of the guitar/pickups doesn't actually come through the amp because it's so distorted it can't come through.

[@dankhill6851]

Distortion makes it so the sound of the guitar/pickups has a no effect on the tone, because distortion distorts the actual signal so much it masks the pickups/guitar

[@bodi.mp3]

@@dankhill6851 distortion def tends to hide imperfections, but pickup def makes a difference. Height, amount of wax, design/purpose, how high the output is, if it’s active or passive, how it’s wired into the guitar, and smaller things that probably make a small difference depending on situation and what you’re trying to achieve. Yeah, distortion will cover up the sound, if you want GOOD tone (at least a way I often achieve it) turn down the gain to the point that the guitar still shimmers, and at that point, pickups for sure have their own distinct sound. Branding is the biggest price increase, but there’s a reason why a Seymour Duncan is better then a china bucker for 14 bucks (tho still good situationally). Mainly, I use gain to bring out the tone of the guitar and the pickups, not hide it to make everything sound the same, I recommend you mess around a bit Source: I work at a guitar store, have build my own guitars, and switched out pickups on stuff

[@dankhill6851]

@@bodi.mp3 Glenn Fricker tested this idea out, pickups didn't effect the overall tone on a distorted signal.

[@bodi.mp3]

@@dankhill6851 I’ll check out his research, but I’m saying it depends. Realistically, not all players are going to turn their distortion gain to 100%, so lower gain will still allow individual pickup characteristics to show. A firsthand example is a homemade Strat I have, we used a cheapie Amazon humbucker originally, but recently I changed it to match what was in my Guild Bluesbird, and it has so much more bite. You can probably dial in the tone knobs and vol to get within the same range, but if we’re talking about straight signal, pickups are different. If we really want to say that tone and vol knobs matter then why don’t we apply that to amp logic and say that amps don’t matter? (Check out Jim Lill’s videos, I’m kinda referencing his amp one, but he compares pickups briefly too in his tone wood video, I gotta watch more of his stuff tho). Idk, I’m not trying to be argumentative at all, but from experience I can just say I’ve noticed differences, maybe they can be smoothed out to be the same, but with a dry signal, they are definitely different. In the end it doesn’t really matter, I just need it to pickup the string vibrations, they all do the same thing regardless so the changes that I do feel like I notice are not that important compared to other things. Anyway I’m the yapper of the century, imma stfu now, sorry for rambling. Like I said, I’m not writing this because I’m angry or arguing, I’m just kinda a geek and get carried away typing lol. I’ll try to find Glenn’s stuff in a lil bit, I love tests like that. Tone debates are goofy lol, I’m a victim myself, but that’s a good excuse to keep learning ig (Edit: holy fuck that is a huge ass wall of text, feel free to disregard lmao)

The guitar may be "unbranded," but that QC says to me that the axe is a Glarry. I bought a guitar and a bass guitar from them a couple of years ago. I don't play that bass, but I don't blame it since I've never set it up. The guitar I accidentally destroyed, which was also my fault. That said, both those axes needed work and were useless to beginners. I've acquired some setup tools and some experience, and I needed both for these axes. That's okay for me, but anyone who DOESN'T have guitar tech skills should only get one of these to start learning on. The low cost will console you if you frag one like I did.

I've met plenty of "experienced" guitarist that have played poorly setup instruments because they never knew it could be done better. On these cheap imports the number one thing that is almost guaranteed to be wrong is High nut action. even if they figure out how to intonate the instrument, every note fretted on the first for frets will be pulled sharp, and anytime they play cowboy chords they guitar will sound horribly out of tune. If a new player is fighting the instruments the whole time they are trying to learn they are more likely to stop playing. and all this is assuming the guitar has good fret work. Some of these no name guitars are good, but some are terrible. Even most experienced players don't know how to dress sharp fret ends or deal with spotty fret leveling. You can get a Squire, Ibanez Gio, Epiphone, ect.. for not much more money. With the name brands you'll get a warranty and generally speaking a guaranteed return/exchange policy. Depending on where you buy the instrument it may come with and instore inspection/setup. like what sweet water does. All of these are better options for beginners.

The reason is because a lot of companies essentially just hire the same factory to build their guitars when in the same price ranges, so you will see the same exact guitar sold under multiple names because it’s an easy way for a factory to get rid of stock and easy for the seller to get their stock faster. You can see this with Harley Benton and IYV and a few other companies.

Alternatives to get the stuck string out: 1. Put it in a vice and use a small hammer and nail to knock it out. 2. Loop the string around through the same holes and give it a good tug from the other side. 3. Use a pair of needlenose pliers to crush the ball and pull it out. The second method is what I do when changing strings if the ball part didn't fall out, since I don't want to bother opening the cavity. I slip it through and it normally falls out or at least gets close enough for tweezers or a magnet to finish the job.

Not a mark on it,so the reason was to hone my skills at neck work,levelling,crowning and polishing,and general set up. The fun bit,plays like a dream,lovely action and clear clean notes and although a chunky neck feels good even against my strat which is quite slim compared to the glarry. My point being,someone could have soent hours learning how to work on a guitar without the fear if dumping a few hundred on something playable only to get it wrong and bugger it up. I enjoyed my time working on the cheapy,and the time spent was worth it cos i got a Dean guitar with a 10mm action and a truss rod wound so tight i had to put pressure on the neck to ease it loose so it didnt strip(thanks stewmac!)and that guitar after a lot of work is also playing fine although does require a fret level and dress but ive held off for a few minths due to the severity of the neck,so its getting played and settling nicely and in a month or so I'll remove the neck for final finishing. Most if the work would have been far more stressful without the glarry to practice on!

That was a killer broom solo in the back after the smashing

[@dathioz]

I have a similar guitar ... which cost me 45 dollar... and it does what should do and I pick it up more than my Ibanez Gio

[@michaelb.42112]

Those desks are NICE, but that guitar worth every penny of $159.99. What a deal. That is affordable to basically every working teenagrer in America.

[@SirSmighty]

reminds me of a washburn, awesome amps you have man love all your videos!

[@TaylorDanley]

@@SirSmighty thanks! 💪

The best gigbag I own actually came from a $99 monoprice guitar I got on amazon (it's usually more expensive but I got it on a sale). Pretty solid padding and comfortable straps. And the guitar was pretty good as well (as a modding base, it's perfect)

[@sjnix7044]

I bought the 5 string bass version of this from Amazon. It’s was $59 + $20 shipping so $79. It’s everything you said about this, but actually playable. I bought the bass as something to noodle on while I waited for my custom signature bass from Black Smoker (Japan). It holds tuning great and the intonation was damn close to dead on. Action was fine out of the box. The negatives were it was LIGHT and headstock heavy. 16th fret was high and buzzed at 17. Other than that, it’s the perfect trash bass for DGAF sessions or just because. I actually reviewed in my unboxing video for my signature bass.

[@jesterjigs9914]

It's the neck find the spot where the strings are inline with the neck then glue the neck .. I do it all the time to guitars where the neck pocket isn't tight

[@belzebu811]

what pedal are you using??? imma beginner

[@jharvey433]

I saw the twist in the neck from your shot on a smartphone lol

[@ronaldreagan2170]

Recently found your channel love your content

[@ChurchOfTheHolyMho]

You should've picked up the infamous Wish Klon clone while you were at it... lol. From other reviews, it would appear ordering that pedal from the same wish storefront will not guarantee that you get the good one - yet apparently some people have actually gotten a really really good klon clone from wish - sometimes.

[@angryroostercreations5194]

the difference in price between something like an Ibanez gio, or say a squire sonic or affinity is 100% worth it. Those may be more expensive, but they are usually ready to go out of the box, and if they aren't you get a warranty/replacement plan. Unless you're someone wanting to pick up a project or practice guitar-tech work, Unbranded guitars are generally something that should be avoided.

[@megatodd707]

It’s a cool video! At first i thought it was the latest from BC RICH 😁 I’m amazed that the frets weren’t sharp and impressed that it stayed in tune. Wow Love your channel! Just wished you had been wearing eye protection❤. Care about you, man! 🥺

[@TaylorDanley]

I know, I messed up. I really should have!

[@Demiglitch]

That's how you know it wasn't a BC Rich, the QC was too high.

[@starteryeet4174]

I'm trying to save up for a 300 dollar guitar. Is it a good idea or should I look for cheaper options

[@mah1ro267]

When I was in a band back in higschool, our lead guitarist had a 99€ no-name guitar from the junk-sales box of the local super market. And it sounded REALLY nice. Even nicer than my 700€ fender guitar 😂 Guess sometimes you can be just really lucky.

[@Food-chan666]

where can I get a copy of your grimoire?

[@AustinStill-d3i]

I use the Dava picks. I really like the size, shape, and thickness. The Dunlop Ultex are also really good but I prefer the 1.0. those are my 2 favorites from what I've tried.

[@combatsportsmedia5686]

These videos prove that the guitar itself isn’t nearly as important as the amplifier that you use when it comes to achieving quality professional sound.

[@darknessviking]

this guitar is awesome looking way cooler than alot of expensive guitar i dont get why so many diss it

[@90AmpGuitar]

First time watching the channel and I like what i see. You came off as a buddy who did a crazy experiment, just for the hell of it, and wanted to tell me all about it. Usually I’m the one doing the crazy guitar experiments so now I see it from the outside… Yeah, it’s weird… we’re weird… ah screw it! It’s fun! Subscribed!

[@PaulyDTheKiwi]

Is it a Gig Bag or a Dust Cover? Or maybe it’s a Shame Bag. So when you put it away, Deep Inside your wardrobe , it’s harder to find or see.

[@RandomizerUploader]

Bro what do i need to play metal sound like the first time you play? That was soo good to my ears 🤔 pedal? Effect? Or what? Or it was just the guitar and amp could be play like that? I've been asking on every vidoes for that question but no one explain or tell me what do i need to play metal like you play like the first you play after intro🤔 so please tell what do i need to play like that, make a list thing i need to play like that or does it could be play metal sound just only with guitar and amp, im buying the cheapest one, the one i could afford, it will come with guitar, amplifier, cable and picker🤔 the price might be the same as yours and ofc it come from china😅 give me detail what do i need or at least the list of the thing i needed to play metal😊 I've been repeating many times now😂😂😂 it was my habits, sorry😅

[@PavelPerez]

Should have played with it out of the box before any changes to hear what the factory sound was.

[@bleed_from_within_is_life9960]

I got the exact same guitar 6 years ago off Amazon and its the first electric guitar I ever bought I love mine It lasted me up until a few months ago when I let my 3yo step brother try to play it bc he plays acoustic a little I told him not to get off the couch but he didn't listen and busted the aux jack I took it to guitar center bc I don't have what I need to fix it and ended up getting a new guitar instead

[@devious6947]

Hey! As someone who's been playing for a while now but still don't have a "great" guitar what would you recommend for about 500$ maybe? I love playing heavy metal and metalcore

[@TaylorDanley]

Jackson line would be my go to. I'm just consistently impressed by the quality... but also, I LIKE that aesthetic so I'm biased.

[@nongovernment3606]

My first guitar was a $60 Harmony sears catalog special. It was the perfect starting guitar in the same way that most people back then when they got their first car was 99% of the time a real cheap piece of crap new or used and for a great reason you are going to seriously mess it up because you did not know what you were doing and you knew that it will be an experiment. But the love for that first car and first guitar would stay with you as you would upgrade parts for better parts and you would fix it up as you went along. At the end of a 2 decade span that cheap 80s Torino that you got with no bells or whistles below stock (and the old harmony guitar) soon went into the garage and began to be cleaned and new parts were fabricated and some old parts were bored out and new details were put on them and new paint and suddenly that old piece of crap was now one of the best sounding and handling even over the newer named brand cars/guitars.

[@luisalbertoalomarflores5161]

HIS PLAYING IS GOOD AND DECENT THE GUITAR WELL ITS WHAT TO EXPECT FOR THE PRICE. WHAT BRAND WAS IT?

[@burtosu86guitar]

Why do i friking forget to like the videos? Nice video and work 🤘🤘🤘

[@DestructorALU]

You could've donated it to someone who couldn't even afford one of these

[@2760ade]

Yes! Disrespectful to guitars as an instrument, and wasteful!!

[@volanterodas]

just silly and show off, lets call it childish.

[@jimmyt8047]

love your content brother !!!!

[@sir-mike-a-lot]

dude, i totally want that exact guitar. well, it needs a locking nut and a few other things.

[@TomYlander]

Thanks for trying Wish guitar, i was thinking of bying simular guitar for my brother for his 12 birthday but not anymore 🤘😊

[@TomYlander]

Half brother 😊

[@JOECHOU-l9k]

my first guitar cost about $80,the higher frets are out of tune, the neck tilted forward after 2 years, pickup switch is upside down, and it's basically unusable on bigger amps...feedback like crazy soon as I plugged it in.

[@chrissager2577]

I have a glarry burning fire, it was my first guitar

[@jms_rocker_8868]

If I bought this guitar, I would change out the bridge and the tuners and replace them with a Hipshot bridge/ wammy bar and Grover lock tuners.

[@Metaldad87]

"is this a gig bag?" Yeah barely by the looks of it 😂
