Semi hollow body for $66 geez that is a good deal. I guess no more using termites to make my guitars a hollow body.
nice one 🤣🤣
😂😂😂😂
But using termites can be advertised as "organic sustainable relicing". Then you can sell it for a premium.
I recently started learning how to make pickups and got the green version of this guitar about a month ago to use to test the pickups as I made them. I've been having so much fun playing the guitar as-is that i still haven't set it up to test my pickups...
The first one I got had a split from the neck pocket all the way through both pickup cavities so I returned it and the replacement actually looks like a good mod platform. I will probably get a neck on clearance from GFS for it and take some .0000 steel wool to the top to satin it out., sand and paint the F-hole (yeah, I said it!), put in a guitar madness A5 P90 and a G&B humbucker, swap all electronics with a CTS volume pot and a Fender TBX tone control, an Oaks Grigsby switch and a mini toggle for split/series/parallel. I'll shield all the cavities and throw some Guyker tuners and a new bridge on it. I enjoy working on them.
I love mine! I got it at the same time, just missed the extra 10% coupon. I had the SAME problem with the saddles, and mine had a backbow in the neck. Both are an easy fix!
Great review man! I love your tasty playing for the sound test!
Yeah mine had the same issues with the saddles , so I changed them all because no matter what I did I couldn't get the ringing to stop. After that there's no issues. But I also installed locking tuners since the one's on it were garbage...
Very nice, comprehensive review. I'm sold. Thanks!
Killer deal even at $95
Rock on Richard 🤘
Thank you, Richard, great review. It really is amazing how cheap you can buy a decent learning or practice guitar these days.
I like it.💜 Excellent review.
Scar found unlevel frets. But others didn't mention anything, so it could be just random.
You probably got a deal because you brought before or have good estimated score to purchase at that price. They use regression techniques and statistics.
Amazon does say it's frequently returned item.
Frets are good on this one, but that always varies with these budget guitars.
Awesome deal fur sure, I was able to snag one 15 min b4 the deal ended. I'll be changing out the saddles and converting it to string through. Great vid & awesome playing as always!
Wow Richard this is another awesome guitar review I love it. Shred on dude.😃👍❤️🔥⚡️🎶🎸
That's a trippy guitar. The sound reminds me of a 1970s band!
I was actually considering one of these to mod. Put some flame maple veneer on the top and change the electrics
Good luck
Veneers are hot pressed with about a Ton of pressure as the wood is in a sheet form
Or even vacuum formed to a top
About 1000 lbs. Of pressure
Just play
@@matthewotremba9230 I've been a woodworker most my life
I love mine. I saw several videos on here saying it was pretty good months ago. It’s beautiful.
I really love good, cheap guitars. Nothing worse than spending like $1500 and get one that needs a big overhaul at some luthier.
I'm proud of your progress as a youtuber, i felt inicially reviews were negative and not shine the bright side, but... 75, semihollow H P90, 21 frets. Yeah. At that price you can do pretty much everything.
By the way: Record, release. It's obvious that the artistry in you is still alive, do not let it go to waste.
Thanks
Wow! I am super impressed with that deal.....gig bag, tuner, strap, picks, extra strings, allen wrenches, shoot, that stuff is worth the price you paid for the guitar! And then the guitar is nice on top of all of that?!!!! Wow!
Like I said, it is VERY worth the $66 that I paid.
Thanks for the honest review!
It seems like this would make a fine beginning guitar for just about anyone, and it would also be a suitable guitar for a project instrument for someone who wants something a little bit different. With hotter pickups it could potentially be modified into a shredder guitar, and the nice thing about the neck is that it too could be shaved down to suit just about anyone that wants a thinner neck, it’s always a lot easier to remove material than it is to add material.
There are some custom P-90 pickups that are actually humbuckers and some have coil splitting capabilities as well, just as the humbucker already has in this particular guitar, however, I am not sure that you tested that feature. A person can always replace the existing humbucker with a much hotter version with coil splitting capabilities and end up with a guitar that has a wider range of sound parameters.
Thanks again for the review!
Please have an excellent and awesome day! ☀️✨🎸
Nice review yes on special deals great savings... Nice Review.. Cheers 🍻 🥃🥃 🎸 🎵🎶🎶🎶🎶
I thought I was subscribed I wasn't I watch you all the time and I'm definitely stealing some licks from you tonight thanks brother that's actually sounds better than a squier to me it sounds fine
I got this guitar in black from my wife for Christmas and honestly don't understand why there's so many complaints , I did have ringing issues with a couple of the saddles. But after changing all of them and installing locking tuners I've had no issues. It's an incredible guitar for the price but I'm wondering why the price keeps dropping , when I got it the price was around $150 but has been going down steadily for some reason. The frets are perfect and I had no ding's or blemishes , it's a steal for that price and even for what my wife paid for it at the time 🤔✌️🤘
I also have no idea why it's a frequently returned item. Seems fine to me.
@@thebaldshredder From what I heard it's the saddle issue and a bowed neck , which a simple trust adjustment will fix. SMH!
@@mikeg6666 are you serious? Wow that's ridiculous. So easy to fix and takes just a few minutes.
@@thebaldshredder Yeah I know it's ridiculous , there's guitars out there with worse issues than that and you don't hear about them returning them. Who knows people are strange!
Love these new Cheap Amazon Guitars w/ rounded SS frets and Ash and Mahogony bodies.
Honestly, even checking back every day doesn't guarantee you won't miss a guitar deal. Not related to this guitar, but I've been waiting for Firefly's EVH style guitar to show up on their site, and it just did yesterday or maybe early today.
And it's sold out again.
Heartbreaking.
But yeah, if you miss a deal, you miss a deal. Sucks, but it's the truth. Glad to hear the guitar is good though. I've been looking at GearIT for a while now.
It's definitely worth it , I got the black one for Christmas from my wife , the price at that time was $150 , but it's been going down since 🤔 the neck is incredible and worth the price alone ✌️
The Headstock looks like the Bald Shredder Socks~!!
So it's awesome then?
@@thebaldshredder as long as it doesn't stink like the socks...lol
right time/right place deal woooo!!
ya i got the green model...still got a sweet deal tho..
the Coil split surprised me, Bonus. Sweet deal RJ
I'm 60 years old and the only deals they would ever do for me at Guitar Center were throw in a cable or maybe some strings. They would never make deals on guitars.
Great review as always. Mine is stil in the box lol.
I'll get to it. Eventually.
Probably right after that PRS review... in 2028.
@@thebaldshredder Those are some speedy expectations.
That was a great deal! Especially for a beginner or someone like me, who loves to make crap guitars into sweet players.
One way to close on a good deal is to browse it often, then after a while put in your cart and leave it there. In time the seller will start the process of dropping the price. Then one of two things will happen. The seller will make an offer. Or request you make a bid. Try it, I have had great success using The Les Devoe method. Enjoy.
I picked one up awhile back for the same price and other than the crappy bridge, it’s not bad I definitely have no complaints and very playable right out of the box
I saw the deal that made it close to the $65 price... I almost pulled the trigger, and not of course I can only get it down to about $83 before tax
Hi Richard! I love your videos. Will you ever show us an RR style guitar? 😁
Maybe one day!
60$ is what I got my very similar Donner for. This thing is 98$ now. The deal is gone. I’d buy it were it not
My favorite color! 😎🤘
Thanks for the video! I think if someone spent some time and fine tuned it then it would be an excellent guitar, ESP when getting it on a special buy. not sure if it would ever be a shredder at any price point. LOL
God I'd love to have that guitar for slide playing
At this moment, it's $98 minus 5% coupon.
4 star review total. Plenty of good reviews. Many 1 star, mostly for QC issues. Amazon Warning: ⚠️ FREQUENTLY RETURNED ITEM.
🤘
😂
I got one last week and its bones are pretty good....Definitely needs a new bridge It's The weakest part of it.The frets are also pretty tiny But pick ups actually sound pretty good
Yah dude where was your shredding, Ha ha ha, maybe I will have to call your Cousin the Medal dude to show you how, Mr Bald Shredder, Ha ha ha!
Just Kidding, keep Rocking[ In Your Wheel Chair ] I mean on your guitar, Bald Shredder Dude!
Great Video!
*Metal dude
I have watched a few of your vids _ Please please do a few lessons - You Are an excellent guitarist!!!
I have done a few lesson videos. Look back through my videos.
GearIT make primarily cables and connectors if I remember correctly.
Nice balanced evaluation. Would you make any modifications to it or are you planning to?
If I was planning to keep it.
It’s worth that much for the parts alone.
Thanks. I made it.
It seems to have a very "jangly" sound.
You should name it "Mrs. Gearit" and use it to play yhe theme from "The Facts of Life."
Sounds LIKE a $66 guitar lol!
Still a great modding platform!
You CAN'T buy a finished body & neck for that price!
Looks fine but I don't like the sound. But at that price you could mod a couple things and still have good value.
Everyone likes a heavy piece of ash
Red numbers always do it, great show
Can't get them in the UK ☹ Although I'm a total beginner it sounded great to me. I do smile when you see these reviews of guitars that cost thousands of $/£ and people rave how good it sounds, what after it has gone through RUclips compression ? 🤣
Now it’s just me, iv played for 48 years roughly now and it has been my experience that unless you are willing to spend a few more dollars in upgrades , it’s just better to go get one that you don’t have to upgrade but like I said that’s me
Red numbers putting pressure on you...I've seen this kind of psychological warfare on the Chinese sites too!
A P90 in the neck is always good, I got a Tele copy last year with one and it sounds great. And getting a gig-bag and accessories included is a really nice touch.
You rock
That humbucker especially is terrible.. but otherwise hard to beat for 66
It's kinda getting to the point it's annoying use to be 3 times the price for something that almost wasn't even playable
Great I was debating to get one thank you 🙏 😊 review
I never pass up on a heavy piece of ASH...
The Gear IT sounds rythymically very vintage sweet ..but have to to say clicked every link to see the guitars and not 1 guitar will ship to me in canada.
GearIt is no longer selling guitar per an e-mail from them.
The bald shredder never forces the shred.
Never
I’d spend the $300-ish dollars I saved not buying a cheap Jackson or squire and upgrade the pickups.
I'm not really a fan of telecaster but semi hollow with a humbucker and an actually intonation capable bridge for $66. Hmmmmm maybe
Lol I didn't even notice it's a p90. Yeah maybe I should just buy one
After the way Amazon treated me as an employee I would never buy anything from them and I would ask conscientious persons to unite with me in the effort to boycott Amazon.
But being left-handed this wouldn't work out for me anyway😊
Neck P90 and bridge Humbucker? Under 100$? SOLD!!!!
Yup
I love your channel.
💯😎👌
But, can you look into
Or find US" Lefty's" some " decent/ student guitars: for Lefty's 👍
Besides GLARRY 👎👎👎😞🙄
Damnit worst you put a killer neck on it .p90 are microphonic like I like em for my punk rock ❤️
I have this exact same guitar. The hardware on mine was terrible, but after dropping in a new Wilkinson bridge and Wilkinson tuners... it's like a whole new machine. Excellent sounding and playing instrument!
Talk to Alvin Lee about making a Tele shred.. check him out..
I can shred on some Teles, just not this one.
@@thebaldshredder that would be something that I would play Funk on .
If you own a jigsaw and a sander you can fix that headstock
Spoiler... he's not going to give it away. Hehaheha
Ugly headstocks is why I’ve passed on several guitars over the years.
I have the strat style GearIT GST200 which is pretty good and it too has some weight to it. Rolled fret ends on mine which is nice. Only bad thing was, my high E string would catch under the fret ends on the bottom of the frets. Super glue fixed all that. I really enjoy playing it and like the bridge pickup. With a little work, these guitars are nice.
Welp! its 97 bucks at Amazon now lol!
Well it looks very attractive , sounds a bit weak - but in tune. But how could anyone complain? It offers daft value for silly money!
Yeah the pickups are a bit weak but for the price that's an easy fix. I have this guitar and might change them down the line to some Wilkinson one's I have lying around. The neck is the star with a roasted maple fretboard and ballend frets it's a no-brainer IMO!
Man I really hate telecasters! They sound cool, and I know it's a very nice tool to have for studios, it's a very nice way to add texture and a solid layer, but man I always prefer to get another dinky! 🤣🤣😂😂 where is the metal dude? I thought he was going to record the demo for this guitar!
Metal Dude will be doing the demo for the orange sparkle super strat. Not this one.
$66 out the door it was probably made out a old hollow door
Actually it was made out of a toilet seat.
Go busking for a day or two with that guitar and get your $66 back and maybe more. 😆🎸🤘🏼👍🏻
Heavy assh!
Face it. A CNC machine in China is the same as one in California.
Reign in the zane
Before I liked this vid. there was 66 likes! Sweet deal!
"The pickups on a thinline didn't do shred..."
Lots of 7 year old chinese Tiktokers are going to be sad.
Frequently returned item! Beware!!!
Shoulda' bought 4 LOL :)
Or 10

I don’t buy cheap PERIOD. My money at 61 yrs of age is buying name brand American made. WHY? Because I bought cheap crap all my life and I’m SICK of certain frets being so off frequency that they’re horrible to listen to even with my deaf ears! Especially the first fret from the nut played open. Horrible first fret to nut intonation! Even after a proper setup and that even happens with some expensive guitars. At least the good ones will fix it. Good luck getting that addressed with a Chibson

you should take it apart so we can see its guts
There are free returns in these guitars so why not buy one and see if it's junk or not ? But contrary to Mr. Bald shredder, the reviews that are not blatantly paid reviews, they are awful...
These RUclipsrs pushing these cheap guitars are not being honest with you. There are inexpensive guitars that have been in the hands of beginner guitar players for 50+ years... Do you really think a GearIt guitar will stand the test of time ?

@@user-oj9rh8zk7s That's what I said.
