Omfg at the start of the video there's a flying V bc rich skullpile in the back 😂 I had one of those when I was 10 and thought it was the coolest thing ever 😅 Oh man wish I kept it, never sell your first no matter how cringe it is.

At least you what you are getting with a Epiphone !

Did you tell the owner that he is selling a fake Gibson or report it to the police?

You can also have one signal go to your amp while the other goes to a USB interface for recording or streaming. That way you won't need to wear headphones the whole time playing. Might consider getting this

I have used this method and I am not convinced that it is any better than one turn on top and two turns below, and it is almost impossible to get the string off if it breaks, without side cutters or pliers. I have also never had string slippage leading to an out of tune situation using other methods. I see that it is most probably more appropriate on non metallic stringed instruments such as the ukulele. I would value some comments and constructive criticism here.

"There's history behind Gibson, they've been around for so long" so you will pay 3000$ for something that has worse QC than any guitar on the planet? Gibson, as a company, is dead.

It's actually pretty easy. If the headstock is still attached, you've got a fake. If it's broken off, congrats, you are playing authentic!

Called a Luthiers knot

The Chinese version is better. Just change the pickups

👍👍👍

Good video but...... If you want your hardware to still look good in 20 years - Don't ever use power tools to tighten screws, and it's a good idea to put a little string tension on the neck (with screws cinched, but not tight) so the neck "seats" in the pocket.

tuners were dead giveaway instantly

lots of guys with no money defending their squiers

I've seen a tube shoved in 180° incorrect. It was in a grain dryer, done by the farmer, but still...

I have a MIM Players Stratocaster and I can pick it up, play it, hear it and it says "Fender" on the head stock so my opinion is "yes it's real". The entire guitar has all the parts that a guitar needs and everything works perfectly, if it was a guitar shaped cake with decorative icing to give it the appearance of a guitar then I would say it's "fake".

Exactly same problem with a cheap fender dreadnaught someone gave me. It happened during hot weather. Two years later time to fix it. This is exactly what I wanted. Thanks.

Being a fake is being a liar. Just saying.

😅😂 i have a fake...lol, I bought a batch of guitars from a friend who bought them from a pawn shop..lol, it says FENDER squire ,stratacaster. I planned on modifying it anyway, with several upgrades, I'm old retired and it's fun to do. But I have a fake..lol..

2 the real Gibson

Asking what size tremolo!! I’m trying to replay my bridge

Wihen buying Shure products it is highly advisable to purchase from an authorized Shure dealer not random Amazon or Ebay sellers. Some of the popular Shure mics like the SM57, SM58, and SM7b are frequently counterfeited.

I have a HH Thinline Tele, Semi Hollow Body. And it's got that Les Paul like sound overall. I'd rather get a LP, or possibly a SG just because I want to lighten the weight a bit... As for your comparison here, there were only a few points where I could tell a difference. So Good Job Ken! 🙂

спасибо большое!

I dont want to be a computer boffin. Its tube amp plus pedal board for me jn a live situation.. I really dont need the brain ache

Super helpful

A top of the line Telecaster used to sell for $200 way back in the day. Today you can get a cheap Squier for under $200, do some modifications to it and it will play just as good as a Fender pro shop $4000 guitar. Your choice and your money, but I'm sticking with Squier.

Must be very nice to have friends like you. Not everyone could do that,,even if they would. That thing is awesome. And beautiful. I'd like to hear it

And a fender precision bass fretless without stripes and a design on the the board instead of stripes

I bet if you did a blind test where they couldn't look at it they just had to play them a lot of these people wouldn't be able to tell which one was the good one anyone can say this one sounds better when they know it's the real one but a blind test would be a real test

Buy specific use copper tape with conductive glue.... When you screw this all back together, drop it a few times, and have it bounce around for hundredas of miles, you won't be second guessing whether all your connections are good....

Don't forget to plug in the input & output cables. For some reason they need to be plugged in for the pedal to operate. 🤷‍♀️

Bless you kind sir. I would NEVER have thought of this. I was going to try taking the bottom off.

Best singlecut I've ever played is a PRS SE Zach Myers.. I also own a Gibson Les Paul Standard.. .there you go

............ quit buying Gibsons long ago, too many other great guitars out there ...... made by indy builders and others

I feel like there is now more reverse snobbery with people looking down on people who play expensive guitars

Very interesting. Got an old Starcaster Strat, the one with arrowhead headstock. I've read that those guitars were made with some left over parts laying in Fender warehouse. (Neck especially )Obviously the electronics and hardware are the same as Squiers. The interesting part is the neck, maple and rosewood, Wich actually is a 12 degree radius, kinda rare and kinda nice. Just check the trust rod hole and quite surprised that it is not a plastic insert, it seems to be walnut or Rosewood. Apparently The arrowhead headstock comes from the Fender Swinger which I really start to believe

At 2:55, picture of the first Strat headstock, why does this not have slotted tuning pegs? Also, the machine-head knobs don't look right.

as an avid fan of Roland gear from synths to grooveboxes its typical of them to take what you want and spread it over many product lines,, very frustrating,, for example they put crumby sample time on their fx board's but yet they do awesome samplers!

Just shut your eyes and listen enough said.

Squier is a cheap brand owned by fender. Cheap guitars for budget. Cannot compare the electronics, tunning machines, fret work, total quality from China to Mex or especially American Fender's. Squier is not fender, Duh.

The more I listen to this idiot ramble on, the more I feel like throwing up 🤢🤮😒

Thanks for the review. Can this work connected directly to a pedalboard and then headphones without a mixer in between?

Thank you so much. This review was very helpful.

The serial number is my first check, but the quality of these Chinese guitars is arguably getting significantly better.

Its only a matter of time that the fakes will be better than the real thing, 😅lol why because very few people will be able to afford to buy a real one and 2 the Fed printing 1 trillion dollars every 100 days, just to keep the USA going and inflation will get far worse, So Gibson better start making there own fakes of the real thing soon if they want to stay alive.😂

Curious why is a saddlexadjustment not comparable to a shimmed neck pocket (cavity) either direction

Thank You!!!

I just use white mineral oil. Wipe strings with rubbing alcohol, make sure strings stay clean, it dries quick. Then just rub it down with regular white mineral oil strings and all. Strings last a long time, nice and buttery, and the fretboard stays hydrated and slick. A little goes a long way. A jug lasts years.
