cool dude

Does anyone know if the trem sucks? I see 6 point trem and it makes me worry . Vega trem would be sick on this but those are 200 bucks

I have a small scale about 12" of the Beatles msgical mystery bus that is very detailed, along with all the Beatles american release albums hanging on the wall, and about 20 more beatles items

Ask someone to explain to you the difference between Aquamarine and Ultramarine.

The left-hand close-up camera had a washed-out appearance that I interpret as lack of contrast.

I bought a used 1968 cherry sunburst Gibson B25 in 1970 when I was 19, I kept it until it got stolen in 2000. I recently was able to find and buy a 1971 cherry sunburst B25 Deluxe in mint condition. I'm selling my other six guitars and keeping the Gibson. I agree about there being something close to magical about them. Here's a young fellow playing a vintage B25 that has Santa Cruz low-tension strings on it, I put the same strings on my B25 and it sounds exactly like the one in this video. kzfaq.info/get/bejne/mpiDnLKTmNStYo0.html

I was in Japan last October and went to Ochanomizu (Guitar Street) and found a Ritchie Kotzen signature Strat and had to get it. It was less than $1000 including a Fender hard case but I ended up flying home without it and getting it mailed to me. Alas, $1300, including shipping. Still, it's a stunning guitar with translucent blonde finish, maple neck and DiMarzio pickups (my least favorite part), 3-ply pearloid pickguard and gold hardware.

I own a black Revstar Standard with P-90s. It’s amazing! I wish it came in a gold top!

I feel like I’m going to be broke if Baxter keeps showcasing these guitars 😂😂

I got the turquoise one. It's great!

I mean... that's NOT exactly "aquamarine"... but okay.

You look like you still feel a little uncomfortable with that guitar, whereas with a Strat, it feels at home. I feel the same way with PRS. Great guitars, but I'll always be a Strat/jag guy. 🤷‍♂️

Good video great playing

Where Crazy Train?

Is that an SE or S2

I feel like we don't have enough darker blue guitars. This is so beautiful!

Add to cart.

I've been upgrading MIM Player guitars lately. Sam Ash, upon closing, had a couple for sale. My conclusion is that they are basically the same as the lower American series (Pro I, Pro II), minus the setup. They produce a lot of these MIM guitars, making them a great platform to upgrade. Mine hits just as hard as my Ultra Deluxe (I named the Ultra Deluxe "The Lady" to show how much I love that thing so it's not a small statement to say it's comparable). Here are the upgrades I made: Upgraded the bridge (not a fan of vintage bridges). Added a graphite string tree or the Fender rolling string tree. Installed locking tuners. The pickguards are surprisingly great-big, solid parts, not the cheap ones you find in Squires, and they come with a proper capacitor. Upgraded the pickups? I'd say listen to them first; you might like them stock, so maybe upgrade. Necks were a challenge-sharp as can be. The issue wasn't the wood (pau ferro) but that it was totally untreated. It felt like a desert. I oiled mine with Danish oil (could have used tung oil), and after three days of treatment, the wood looked amazing and felt great. Problem solved. The gloss maple fretboards didn't have issues. Both necks needed major fret work: leveling, fixing fret sprout, crowning, and polishing. Overall cost: $1,100-$1,600. However, if you need to sell them for quick cash, don't expect to get much more than $600. It sucks that's the case, but the instrument will atleast rock. It won't be a custom shop guitar, but you might prefer it over your Ultra every once in a while. Where MIM guitars shine, in my opinion, is in the materials. The neck is worth fixing, the body is top-notch, and the pickguards and electronics are surprisingly good. I've compared them with higher-end Fenders, and they're pretty impressive. The tremolo block is beefy. It's not a case of skimping on parts. I think they keep the cost down by simply not setting them up. They take a good guitar, make sure it works, and then box it up. That's my theory because the parts are good.

Why are so many guitarists “mamas’ boys “?😂

Well my Slash Goldtop is now at Casino , maybr if they have time you will get a treat and a chance to hear an Amazing Les Paul

Love my RSS02T, has become my #1. BTW, Both the Gibson Tributes and Studios are cheaper than the $3000 standards

I’d like to see the Revstar compared to the Reverend Sensei. Bodies are nearly exactly the same. Both Korean models made in the same plant too… Heritage just announced an import line. So that will be interesting too

I love my revstar standard black! Plays great sounds awesome & a great price $639.99 new! What a steal!!

I really dig that tailpiece

Guitar Center next. Will miss the Sam Ash store 😩

They are shop assistants, nothing more, nothing less

6:01 it's kind of like the G&L US vs import price differential thing. How is G&L even still in business?!

4:41 Gibson USA SG all the way!!!! I love my SG, I have one of the old Gothic ones from 2002. I don't play it as much as I should.

I have a Revstar standard, don’t play it very much.

I've always wanted to get a white Revstar and be Johnny Ramone in a Ramones tribute band even though I'm more like Joey with my height and hair length and overall weirdness. And yeah, I know Johnny played a Moserite so don't @ me, you accuracy sticklers.

What a great video. Good to see yall get onboard with the RevStar. Great guitars.

I had the Standard RSS02t which I bought when it was released. I like it so much I bought the entry level Element RSE20 for $500. I liked the $500 Element so much that I sold the $800 Standard and bought a Gator Transit gig bag. I love that Element. It is 7lbs 2 onces, well balanced, and the fretboard was rolled. It makes me smile every time I play it.

The ability for Indonesian factories to produce an end product that's competitive has never been the issue... The way they get there is the issue.... Indonesia is the #1 country in the world for ocean pollution... Minimum Wage in Indonesia also comes out to less than $1 an hour.... you can take a wild guess at $1 an hour what the healthcare and benefits are like along with OSHA standards. I think its high time we as an industry raised the bar.

I'm happy to see Yamaha get some love.

soooo much cooler than that crap PRS puts out these days.

Local currency for local currency the Revstar Standard is the best guitar you can buy. Which is why the Revstar Premium is such a hard sell. The only reason to get a Premium is if you want a Goldtop one.

good to see you back , I had bought one identical from Guitar center used at 450, overall the fit and finish was excellent but it had a few dead spots [frets] that I couldn't get rid of , I had tried myself and took it in for their luthier to fix but they never went away, beside that it was a fantastic guitar

I have a Epiphone Masterbilt dr500 from Indonesia. Bone nut,hide glue, solid woods and no scarf joint. It was Pleked as well. It's pretty nice dreadnought guitar with cutaway. The finish isn't a 100% (one tiny run) It's a quality instrument from a Asian country.

These guitars are so underrated they fly under everybody’s radar, but they’re absolutely amazing and for two grand you buy the $800 one then go on a Hunter Biden shopping spree, cocaine, hookers. And buy a whole wearing a diaper and take a bunch of selfies ! He’s my spirit animal.🎉

Revstars are groovy a.f.

lots of folks like the Yamaha es-335 clone.

Is Bax growing out the facial to auditfir a bit part on The Chosen?

I special ordered a black Gretch electromTic guitar from Sam Ash. I love it and will not sell it. I buy and sell my other guitars, but not this one. 😮

Gibson Les Paul Studio are in the same range as the Revstar Japan made.

1:25 Baxter, you’re holding the $849 guitar. Purely based off of the finish. Yours looks slightly more even.

Everyone who’s reviewed them has had great things to say about them. I don’t see why more folks aren’t playing them. I have the RSS20. It’s a great guitar.

I like Gibson, but they are too expensive!!!

I hope GC goes out of business just like SamAsh. Lousy customer service and rude assholes working there.

Model numbers sound like……..R-e-s-p-e-c-t….🎵

grown men still not understanding the basics of economics. The guitar prices never went up. It was the value of money that was almost cut in half as they doubled the worlds money supply under the guise of a certain flue. The prices will never go down again because the value of money will continue to exponentially fall.
