Could the soundboard output be directly put in the mic input of the laptop (with a cable that would have a mini-jack on the other end) in order to avoid the analog/digital audio interface? Or is it a bad idea?

Totally agree. I have a 2021 American Professional ii, a 2022 Fender Player and a 2021 Squire 50s Classic Vibe. The Classic Vibe holds it's own. Great sounding guitar, plays fantastic, just bit bit heavier than the other 2 but just as darn good. For some people it's hard to get passed the Squire logo but man, if you can, you have a guitar that is 90% equal to it's counterparts. Totally love my Squire.

Thank you for explaining this so aptly. My question is about onscreen words of a song. Usually for normal every day meetings online I can do "share screen' then go into presentation mode on canva or PowerPoint. But I do not understand know how to do it foe the setup in a church so thw people sitting in the live audience see the words of the song on the monitors. I vet ita simple but I just haven't wrap my head around it. Help. Thank you

I have 2 Player Plus and a Player LTD - I love them all and did not have any issues. They are just as good as my US strats.

I have a question if someone can help me. Will the audio be in sync with the video? Or would I have to make some tweeks somewhere to line them up?

Thank you for your review, Eric. I saw this video a few days ago and today I was finally able to try the guitar in my local guitar shop today. It is the most versatile guitar I've ever played in terms of tones. I am definitely getting one of these next.

Thanks for the video. That was really helpful. Just a question. How do you connect those monitors on the floor? Are they also connected to the board?

Thank you. Do you have also a recommendation for editing and mixing software?

Absolutely brilliant ! Just the thing. Very well presented thank you

Nice review. Been strongly considering one of these for a few months now

Nice piece 👏🏾...can someone do ear monitoring from this sound interface or the computer?

Hello , I m between this one and gibson LP standard ...pretty different guitars ,tell me what is your opinion about this dilemma ,thanks 🤘🤘

Cymbal sound to loud and bright Should get a darker sound cymbal . Sabian HH. To blend with music well.

Buy a good used one , sorted,,!!

Great video. I do have one question. The ¼ in cables coming out of the Focusrite, where are they going? I know that usb goes to the laptop and the cables in come from the board, but where are the out cables going?

I had a Charger years ago that simply wouldn’t stay in tune…but I loved the neck. I’m ordering this HH model because if it stays in tune along with the coil splitter they added…it will take the place of my ESP Horizon (which I love) as my got to guitar. It’s just that damn neck is unlike anything I’ve ever played. It feels nicer than my Strat. I actually have a Schecter that has a great neck but it has active EMG pickups. Anyway maybe I’ll come back and tell you guys if it stays in tune because I’m sure everyone reading this is curious…more likely I just bored people to death with my mini novel. Sorry it’s late and I’m excited to get a new guitar!!!! Charvel baby!!!

AMAZING! PHENOMENAL VIDEO! So helpful for what I needed to get started with my live stream! Thank you so much sir! 🌻🦋🌷

Glad I waited. The player series are being discontinued and we are getting new upgraded ones soon.

There's 1 player series that I think is worth it right now (to me), and its the current Player Limited Edition in black with the gold pickguard, roasted maple neck, and the custom shop fat 50's pickups that is currently on sale on the Fender site for $787, which I think is a pretty good deal. I actually returned an AmPro ii due to QC issues right out of the box, and I think its just something that comes with the territory no matter where the guitar is made these days.

I use this setup with my phone. kzfaq.info/get/bejne/nrKHhJicm6erZGQ.htmlsi=UqTJIgGiYlORgjCD

Good review - have the SP. agree the Keeley was more articulate. But the noise floor! Didn’t read all the reviews but the noise is bugging me with the SP. and the Kelley wasn’t quiet either. Sigh. Compressors can do that, and amplify any signal / guitar noise. But I’m not sure the compression is worth it with that buzz! I could even hear it when you were playing - as I do when I’m using the SP. 😩

The magic scarlet is the key

I hate to tell you that no neck plate is not a modern thing. It's been done a very long time. I had a guitar using just bolts back in 1991. It was not as common, but its not modern.

Can you explain to us the specific settings for the microphone with the mixer you have? Because I have a mixer from Bia company and it is not in harmony with the microphone as the 48 light is radiating in red. Please help me and thank you.

Output Jack! Sound doesn’t go into the guitar so how is it an input Jack? It’s input on the front end of amps!!!

I'm no shredder, hell I'm barely a guitar player, but I have a Charvel with Fishman Fluence pickups and when playing lead, it's on of my favorites. I have Gibson, Fender, PRS, and I love them all but playing lead on the Charvel just adds something to it.

FYI there have been returned guitars where people swap parts. It’s hard enough dealing with the quality from the OEM now contending with peoples evil dishonest actions.

Lightweight, ebony and Lamborghini Green at $650 is a keeper.

Super helpful, thank you!

In the states im more than happy to support my "local" North American economy and support our friends to the south in Mexico. Personally I find pride in MIM Fenders. Everyone's situation is different and if you can afford it, I'd do it again

we know the song!

I just ordered a brand new one 630$ after tax. Hopefully it doesnt have issues but i can return it if it does.

Sounded far better without the dbx

Sounds like it has some high frets. All guitars at this price point need fret work. Best thing I ever did as a guitarist and guitar collector was invest in a set of fret files from StewMac and learned how to do fretwork. The difference in the quality of your guitars will be drastically enhanced with properly leveled, crowned, and dressed frets.

Great man, I like your idea, I will make one for me like yours

Were you able to fit the box in your car??

Amazing video! I might get a Yamaha Stage Custom drum set in the future if I save enough money in my school bank account. It’s my goal to earn money. That’s why this summer, I am working at a hotel during my summer program at my school and I’m making some money, and also, during my final year of my college program, I will be working at my school’s kitchen, which means I’m making a lot of money and by the end of next year, I will be graduating from my boarding school with all of the money that I have earned, which is such a big deal,

I just bought a player series neck for an old fender strat and the nut is too low and the frets are not level. From quick research this sounds way too common

This vs Schecter MV6.

Just picked up a 2023 fender player series strat for 450 out the door. "Used" but was in damn near perfect condition. Still has the "player series" sticker on it. Could not pass it up.

I'm still waiting on the release of the audio version.

I looked at some Squire P basses and they are very nice.

I just bought a used Player Plus Top HSS. It still had the plastic film on everything but the frets, strings, and saddles were very corroded. It was like it had never been setup but played and never cleaned. The fret ends were bad. I did a complete fret job and am still in the process of setting up. Too much relief and a stuck truss rod. It finally loosened up but still difficult to tighten. I put weight on it and have made a few more adjustments and just waiting, now. Otherwise, it's beautiful and the electrics all work normally but with all of the corrosion I didn't play it much yet. 2018 build.

Hopefully I will get a charvel as my next guitar after the Ibanez prestige and AZ!

Wow ... Proud of this man i been wanting to know how its done

Sweet, sharp and simple. Awesome!

Bro, for the webcam and life video, what video mixer you use?

Hello Eric. I am looking at buying a new guitar. I am decided between this exact guitar OR a Nick Johnston traditional Strat. The Nick Johnston model seems to have more extras.... here in Australia the Player series is around $1299 However the Nick Johnston is currently on special for the same price, and its normally $1500 + ....... I dont know if your familiar with the Jonhston Schecter but it seems to have more up market features, locking tuners etc.. Its not the USA model but its still nice................ is there any reason at all for me to buy the fender Player?

Not a fair comparison without adjusting the dip switches in the SP
