We're talking about sound. Not playability. The strings would ring better, like a fine tuned bell . Did you play an acoustic guitar 50 years ago? No, I'm sure you did not. The strings had much better tone. Listen to any acoustic song from the 60s or 70s. The guitar strings sounded better. They were better. I actually think crappy strings have made me a better player, Just to make up for the lack of string quality. If you want to complain to somebody about something or just demean or negatively criticize someone, take it down the street. I'm stating facts here , you're just barking .

@@briankeenan4901 wait...so you're either going by how they sounded when they were originally recorded in a studio on a warm sounding analog reel to reel OR from a personal memory from over a half century ago (because we all know how infallible and accurate our memories remain across 5 decades)?? I'm sorry that I didn't agree with your wildly obscure premise (that no one else shares) and you got defensive, but where was a SINGLE FACT ever mention in your video? It was all an assertion based opinion lacking any actual specifics to back up your claims. (Go rewatch your own video and point out A SINGLE VERIFIABLE FACT stated that wasn't just you relentlessly insisting that "it's the strings Maaaannn...trust me bro") I'll wait. Did you ever even consider the possibility that-JUST maybe-your hearing has naturally degraded over the past 50 years due to both older age and from playing live music for so long??

​@@mymusicaljesus Hey, were you th😮ere? WERE YOU THERE? No, Obviously you were not. The Quality of anything containing metal has slid down to trash. We used to have coins in the USA that were made of Silver. Then they started using copper in the middle. Things have moderately declined in quality. I predicted that people would not agree, especially people that were not there. I also predicted they would bring up recording equipment, etc. Wrong. It's the strings. They make them with cheaper and lower quality components. They suck. Yes, They suck. It was a pleasure to buy a nice set of strings in those days and the pick would bounce off of them with a certain vibe that you cannot experience anymore. And don't blame peoples hearing and other crap. If ( and I expect you do) you think a RUclips video has great sound, with a mp3 or MP4 encoding, it doesn't. It's missing a whole spectrum of sound that we used to hear through nice speakers and a decent stereo system off of vinyl. Yes, Your strings are Crap. The wire used is of inferior quality and it's impossible to get wire of the quality used 50 years ago. Things have not improved in 50 years. The quality of things is quite inferior. And don't blame me, Thank your government for sending our jobs to other countries and lying to you about quality. Suck it up and realize that we are stuck with junk. That's right, Junk. And you can buy all the vintage high quality guitars you want and they will never sound as good as they did in the 70s. Strings used to break. Yes, they would break quite often , for no reason. Not anymore. We have traded sound quality for durability. Coated strings so they last longer? Longer than what? The millennium? The strings are Crap.And That Is A Fact. PERIOD .

@@briankeenan4901 Dude, you're fucking hilarious with the amount of excuses and coping you're doing. Holy shit, dying on the dumbest hill with an opinion that people straight up don't agree with or share is wild. I asked you to do ONE THING, point out A SINGLE VERIFIABLE FACT in your video because you kept saying that you were only saying facts, AND YOU STILL couldn't even do the bare minimum and point to where you stated any. Instead, I was bombarded with an unhinged, longest single paragraph, boomer manifesto where you addressed nothing relevant while also swinging by to dip your toes in the conspiracy pool real quick. You made up so many assumptions about me that you then proceeded to get mad about over (a boomer favorite). You even tried to argue that hearing and memories don't degrade over 50 years, which I was trying to be generous and leave you an out, but even that set you off onto some other tangent while still dodging the main point which was to SHOW ME THE "FACTS" you supposedly had in your video - which you still can't do.

@@MAVIEGUITARS I'll try them. You're not going to believe this but I picked up a set of First act acoustic strings that sounded pretty good.

@@richardsowerby4219 Hey, A comment from the guy that spent his entire life savings on a guitar that he thinks sounds good. But sadly, it doesn't. And it never will.

because it is

@@JulioLeonFandinho Hey, Look....Another Genius!!! Go get your Shoe Shine Box .

Don't be sorry, I know I'm not. It's not a Starcaster anymore. It's a great guitar. I know it's an older one because I've owned 2 others and they were miles away from this quality. I am not recommending buying a 110 dollar Starcaster, I'm merely showing my favorite modded guitar. I spent upgrade money on it because it has a super great playing neck. It feels great to play and I won't part with it. Thanks for watching and subscribe.

@@frankieavalos24 Thank You. Subscribe and I will demonstrate it. It sounds fantastic. But I can't record it with the phone, the mic sucks. I have to record with a handheld digital camera with stereo microphones. It will sound great.

Thank you so much 😀

Cool, thanks!

Um, Thank you. I always wondered about that. But without hearing the pronunciation correctly, we will still mess it up.

Correction: I used Lexan, Not Plexiglass for pick guard. Lexan is thicker and more durable than Plexiglass

Yeah, Don't we all .

@@smilevrsac If you deal with non- fender equipment, you're gambling on finding a pick guard that will fit. I am sure a pick guard for this guitar would exceed the original price paid for the guitar.

Glad you enjoyed it
