And an even cheaper line ($400) that are also supposed to be spectacular for the money (but I don't own one, so I don't know). So picking on them is bullshit.

I think Solar guitars is one of those brands that just really understands who they are, who their clients are, and what makes a guitar great. These cheaper models are so sensible and they don't really compromise on anything that might be prohibitive to buy. I like that Ola said "it has to be great at all prices, but it doesn't have to be the highest price" without actually having to say it and decided to prove it instead. There's a lot of shame and shade going to the rest of the industry just by proving that you don't have to spend $$$$ to get something worth having.

Hey Glenn,really like the progress you are getting with your playing. One advice I can give for your vibrato. I notice you do the push pull with one finger. If you want a smoother vibrato, keep your middle and index finger on the string to help support the ring finger in pushing the string. You'll find yourself using less force and will have better control on the string... Keep up the good work. Always a pleasure to watch your honest content.

@@luzid_2154 if you like flying v guitars I totally think it's a good buy. I like it enough to consider buying a second one. I also have a Solar V and I like that one a lot too. There are a few differences in the S By Solar and the Solar guitar, but for me they are not big enough to notice while I'm playing. I'm also a pretty basic person. All I really need is a single volume knob and a bridge pickup to be happy. Overall, for me it sounds good, the input jack is in a good spot, and it was delivered really fast after I paid for it and it arrived in great condition. This is also just my experience with the brand.

Hey Glenn! I know this is off topic as it regards to this video, but i can't describe how grateful i am that i found your channel. I was under the assumption that good guitar tone came from good hardware, but oh how glad i am to be so wrong. I don't really play metal but after playing around with some of the plugin recommendations you gave (especially the free amp sims!) I discovered a tone could only dream of. Between you and Stevie T ill be sweep picking in no time. It also opens up my mind to exploring other types of amp sims that are more on the cleaner side for some of my other projects :) Also, quad tracking rhythm sections for greater presence has to the best bit of mixing advice ive ever gotten. great videos and awesome information

As someone who plays guitar I'm listening to your advice and doing the most important thing which is to practice and improve day by day. Recently I've spent 3 Gs on a custom made overload guitar knowing that it will have little to no sound difference than my previous harley benton and ibanez, but I still think it is a good thing to own nice things if that is what makes people happy. Although unlike some I am not one to cope, and other tone snobs could learn to live outside of a delusion.

That being said, for studio recording and just having access to ‘tones’ I’ve always gone for squire, epiphone, and the cheap Jackson’s. They play nice, sound good, and are CHEAP. I had an EP Sheraton that played just as good (if not better) than my Les Paul Traditional. But I would never take a Sheraton on stage (sorry Gallagher)

I'd say the tuning issues are probably more related to the nut - there's quite a few good tutorials on the interwebs for filing a nut. Even a plastic one should be fine ("vintij" Gibsons used plastic nuts, as much as tone snobs might like to forget that corian is a type of acrylic plastic) so long as it's filed right. I use a cheap welding torch tip cleaning kit I got from the hardware store.

The difference between expensive and inexpensive guitars is not in the sound. It is in the built/joint quality, attention to detail, feel, playability and most importantly overall vibe and inspiration. Some of these things you can only see some of them you can feel. Those are the things that make difference. Sometimes even the differnece in vibe , the constant inspiration resulting from that feel is worth alone to pay more. It does not mean that an inexpensive guitar cant have vibe. Sometimes an inexpensive guitar can be inspiring too, just it is much more rare. Just comparing the sound is meaningless, sound comes mostly from pickups and the amp.

Took your advice Glen on the Harley Benton 2X12 with v30. With shipping, $365ish, ordered it on a sunday, it was at my house in Lubbock Texas at 2:00pm on thursday, four days!! It is a great cab and im very happy with it. Thank you for saving me some $$$$$$

I recently received the 7 string S by Solar. I am very pleased with mine too, but would like to replace the tuners with locking tuners. What locking tuners would you recommend? Thank you, Glen.

You guys are a metal powerhouse. We need more crazy mtf bringing joy and heavy metal, even bassists. Love ya \m/

GLENN, I have a question. Please note, I am not smart(bassist), but what exactly involved in setting up a bass and guitar for studio quality? Like I finally bought new strings, intonated it but what else should I do, what could come up that I may not be thinking about.
