Dean ML "Dime-oflage" Chinese remake, sounds pretty damn good and it was fairly reasonable just under 850. Jackson js32 king V too, it's very low priced at about 300 to 350 but for a low end guitar it's pretty rad to start on.

As a former touring musician who refused to pay for a top end guitar since I sold all of mine lol. All of the Epiphone Les Paul's are tremendous value. Even for recording purposes you can get any sound you want out of them.

That's if they're set up correctly.

Epi LP custom (yeah yeah it’s not $700 but it was $710 when tax kicked in so ya

I'm a Gibson hater and yet I still believe Gibson Tribute Les Pauls are something else for the price. Just saying.

Me too

Same

Norsk eller?

Same here. Nobody has a better guitar channel. Darrell and Shane talk to the average guitarist. And it's really appreciated. This video is the perfect example of why Darrell's channel is so good. He, as does Shane, gets that most people don't have 2-3 thousand to spend on a guitar or an amp.

@@user-xm5fo3bo3t jauuuuu

I’m a completely beginner and I’m looking for a guitar so my questions is should I get a cheap guitar or a mid range guitar(1000-500) as a starter guitar I kinda want a mid range guitar since I don’t want to spend to much money on multiple guitar

Same with their acoustic guitars, Chris. I have an AC3R that is amazing.

Agreed, they pretty much sounded the same here, can't really hear the gits tone . But I too love ya'lls channel..

I couldn't tell one from the other in a blind test. That may be a good thing.

I won't pretend to know how or why it comes out this way in his videos, but it's like this in every video. Every guitar sounds basically exactly the same, evey single time. I still watch and like his videos though.

@@edwardtcrump5312 Maybe there's just not much in it - or perhaps compared to how you play it, what you're playing doesn't matter as much as you might think it does. I remember years ago I joined a band with this guy who sounded fantastic and he only played really modest instruments. That made me completely re-evaluate getting a super expensive Gibson and got me to value practising more instead.

@@Captain_Aardvark Many great guitarists would agree with you. Most guitar legends didn't care much for expensive guitars. Case in point, EVH, Brian May, and many more. It's often non-pros who are obsessed with expensive instruments. And the pros who do play high end instruments get them for free.😁

I have the Reaper 6 FR-S and it’s my first Floyd rose. Don’t like the Floyd rose at all. I wish I got the standard!

They are awesome. I have a black one with a trem. Really good guitar, and I'm hoping Charvel continues to listen to players on social media to make further variations.

To be honest man. Most the guitars priced at 700 to 1000 simply just aren't worth it. Lots actually kind of suck. I mean of course some of them are good but I've played so many $700 duds. Anyway if you want a $1,000 guitar just buy one used. With that 500 bucks

@@beefnacos6258 say something good about my guitar - Fender Player Stratocaster

@@beefnacos6258 What do you mean by duds? Is it about build quality? Is it playability? Sound? To me, it's kind of a snobbery saying that "lots of guitars" in the range of 700-1,000 USD aren't worth it. I find that hard to believe. You've got rather cheap Squiers and Epiphones, and others under 500 USD that sound, feel and play really well! Could it perhaps be that your personal preference is the problem? I've played lots of guitars in the 500-1,000 USD range, and many of them were really good! The PRS SE's are worth mentioning too. Gretsch have good ones also. I've played a 1,000+ USD Ibanez that I didn't like, but that's because that type of guitar didn't fit me. It's a great guitar, but it didn't feel good in my hands. I've played 2,000+ USD Les Pauls, and even though they're classics, I don't like the chunky neck, the heaviness, and the muddy bridge pickup that they tend to have sometimes. I've played a Gibson SG, but that one was too light, it almost felt flimsy. I've played the Yamaha Revstar RSP20CR, their top of the line Revstar, which I actually wanted to buy, but again, the neck was a bit too chunky for my taste, and it's also glossy, and I felt while trying it out that my hand didn't glide easily along the neck. As soon as my hand was a little moist, the neck felt a little, for lack of a better word, "sticky". It's a great guitar, and I still want it, but I'll wait to try to find one used, or get the cheaper ones 520 or 620, and see if I get used to the feel of the guitar. Yeah, so, I'm not saying that you're a snob who thinks only expensive guitars are good. It just might be that what you've been looking at guitars that don't fit you. "God knows" there are some pretty bad expensive guitars too, and yes, more expensive guitars do tend to have better build quality, but more expensive usually means made in the USA. And who's to say that American made is always better than Japanese, Korean or even Chinese made guitars, especially if they use the same type of machines in the manufacturing process? The Chinese Shijie guitars are actually handmade, and even though the Strat type of guitar they make is sub 1,000 USD, they can easily compete with the American made Fender Strats. Such specs don't come on Fenders that are twice as expensive. Although, it might be that you're after really polished frets with nicely rounded edges, and other such details that make the guitar feel expensive. But I'm protesting your opinion, that looks like you're being objective when you said that LOTS of 700-1,000 USD guitars suck, and SOME of them are good. That's simply just not true.

@@nedim_guitar I definitely agree that the statement he made about $700-1000 guitars not being worth the money isn’t really true. I would say that you can get guitars with close performance for slightly less but still that price range will have advantages

@@ethantorres4061 Look at a Suhr that goes for around 5,000 USD and an FGN or Ibanez that cost around 1,000 USD. Is the Suhr better? Very likely. Is it 4,000 USD better. Not a chance. That doesn't mean that expensive guitars aren't great, and guitars like Suhr are an important part of the market, not least because others can try to be as good for less money. But just saying that a lot of 700-1,000 USD guitars and that only some of them are good, it's just not true. Oftentimes we pay a lot for the brand too, and for the fact that the guitar is made in the USA, and there's nothing wrong with that, but like I said, money doesn't say everything about a guitar being good or bad. Guitars that cost 700-1,000 USD are not as good as guitars that cost 3,000-5,000 USD, but do they usually suck? Of course not! No one would buy them if they sucked. That sort of thinking can turn people away from really good guitars that are in their range, or make them wish for guitars they cannot afford, instead of actually playing the one they have and enjoying playing. If I had known all that I know today about guitars, quality, set-up and playability (including neck profile, and thickness, and string gauge), I would have been a much happier young man who's trying to find his way in this whole playing guitar schtick. Just that minor detail, string gauge, was a huge problem for me. I played in standard tuning with 12's. It was impossible to improve, because it was impossible to play, and no one cared to ask about strings or anything else, to help a newbie on his way. If I had had a Fender Strat custom shop with those strings, I would have hated that guitar too.

I said the exact same thing. And now, they have gone up even more. Yamaha by $159, the schecter by $300. Really no excuse for it

@@terryshrives8322 Supply and demand.

@@terryshrives8322 inflation. Money is worth a lot less then pre-covid.

611 and 612s price has gone down by $100, at least here in Canada This is prolly due to introduction of higher end pacificas

Isnt that more of a superstrat than a vintage sounding strat though?

The DC model is my dream now, I will buy one when I can afford. Guild are ..... What to say?
