A huge thanks to Vola for sending this out for review! Just to let you know Vola is letting me keep this guitar but I have not been paid in addition to this. All the thoughts and critiques are my own.

Best channel on RUclips by a country mile
@@jaydepetercaramalis3882 🙏Thanks a lot for the kind words! I am not so sure it's the best, but I do my thing! :-)
Congratulations on 140K - couldn't happen to a better guy - so deserved!!! Congrats Shane I am very happy for you and all the incredibly hard work you have done to make one of the classiest channels on RUclips. Big thumbs up on the channel reaching that 140K mark 👍👍👍👍👍
Thanks, Peter! I have you to thank/blame for upping my production over the years. Thanks again and I'll see you on the next live stream all being well I've had a few busy days in a row.
I grew up watching Japan get better and better. My first guitar in 1967 was a domino Californian. In the eighties all my guitars were made in Japan. Basically because of the price. But it turns out they were actually better guitars. They just keep getting better their attention to detail is outstanding. Japan has pride in the products that leave their country to me that makes all the difference.
That's a Classy Modern Classic Hybrid Strat! Looks and Sounds very solid.
I'm fine with the Headstock Shape but I would have to get a slightly thinner Neck for me... That's by no way a criticism just a personal preference. SWEET TONES and a GREAT REVIEW Shane... I think you need to hang on to this one.
That is a great looking and sounding guitar mate
Great tone Shane. Congrats on 140K subs
I can't wait for the guitar duel where he reveals that he's not really left-handed.
I just saw on Reverb the 2020 model has a roasted neck and fingerboard!
You should buy that one, so they drive the standard un-roasted maple price down for me.
@@9unslin9er I just did. Glad I could help!
Awesome tones! It not only sounds good, but your playing is inspired too.
First of all, congratulations for hitting 140k subscribers!!👏🏽👏🏽 Your content keeps getting better each video! As for the Vola, I do find it a great sounding guitar with a unique/familiar vibe to it. My only complaint is the price. Me being one the most obscene Fender/Gibson fanboy, I need a guitar to hit impossibly high standards to steer me to another brand. If I feel a company can make a similar guitar with the same or superior quality, the price has to be lower than my favorite brand. That’s my silly hang up 🤪🤨🤨🤓 It’s a cool guitar and I believe anyone would be happy owning a Vola. Looking forward to more demos with this guitar Shane!! Cheers 🎸🎸🎸👍🏾🤙🏾👍🏾
You are missing out on a lot of great guitars and confining yourself to a lot of very average ones pledging allegiance to the Fender and Gibson lifestyle brands. Why pay $20k or more for a 2020 Fender Masterbuilt Custom Shop guitar when the Novo or Schecter Custom Shops can build you something even better for under $10k ?
tdunster2011 Perhaps you’re right however I pretty much have most of guitars I want now and they happen to be Fender and Gibson. If it’s a unique shape like some of the Little Crow guitars or any other brand except Schecter (I have an unhealthy hate for that brand 🤪🤪) I’m open to trying them.
@@jamalabdul2009 When did you have the issue with Schecter ?The dude [Will] who ran the workshop for Schecter USA now runs Gretsch Pro Series production for Fender. So there might be an issue post 2017. I was looking to get Schecter to build me another Super Strat - but if there's issues I'll hold off.
tdunster2011 I just don’t like that brand. I’m left handed and for years Schecter and Fender were mainly the only guitars available in major music stores. Most of the guitars Schecter make really don’t appeal to what I like. I’m sure they are great guitars just not what I want.
tdunster2011 As far as a custom shop, I own a Fender 69 Stratocaster (righty that’s I play lefty) and it is by far my favorite guitar. It was $3k which for how it plays, is a bargain. I don’t have a problem with owning guitars outside of Fender/Gibson when the guitar is not modeled after a Strat/Les Paul.
Hi Shane. Greetings from Barnsley in the Republic of South Yorkshire, U.K. Thanks for bringing all these guitar brands to our attention. You are really spreading the word for the "newbies" to the known market (and especially when you need a left-handed version!). Have you heard of/looked at Ormsby? I think they are based in Perth. You might struggle to get a leftie and the guitars I have seen are fan-fretted, but they may be keen. Thanks again and stay well.
Great tones and man your playing just gets better and better! Keep on keeping on!
Thanks for the kind words! :)
@@intheblues Its true man, Ive watched you become a better player over the last few years big time!
Lovely sounding guitar, your playing rocks mate!
Sweet sounds dude. Nice playing.
Easily the best sounds I've heard on your channel. Really impressive
One of the best tones I’ve heard - even the middle is very useful - killer sounds!!
Like the 50's looks including the cream volume and tone knobs. Overall it sounds more modern and snappy (I think that might round off "a little" with playing in). The bridge hum bucker is very well voiced: wide range and rounded without any dullness, especially jumping from single coil to hum bucker it is well balanced so that makes it very useful.
Ok, the tone is great. The burst looks great and love that tinted maple neck. Two things that bother me about this guitar that would bug me if it were mine are #1 that headstock still looks a bottle opener or a birds beak to me. #2 the humbucker being chrome covered while the single coils are plastic triggers my ocd or something. Id either remove the chrome cover or get two silver pickup covers for the single coils. That being said, it sounds great.
Man, I love the chrome humbucker haha :)
@@intheblues I just have to have things match. 😆 In my tele I took out the neck pickup and put a regular strat one in simply because the strat one matched the bridge pickup better.
Nice man
Hey Shane, how about a review of a Gretsch G5222 duo jet?
Congrats mate ! Well deserved milestone and a cool axe too !😎👍
Shane, I think you need to hold on to that guitar for awhile.
Great guitar Shane. Love the sunburst color. Are you planning on gigging with the Vola? A review of playing live with this guitar would be cool. Awesome channel !
Wow that neck pickup and a little change of playing style no bad thing ... sweet
Damn that looks and sounds great!
Thanks man, I love this thing! It's the best guitar I've seen in a long time :)
The sustain is almost in the territory of my Burny sustainer - I got on of the lite ones - if anyone has one I made a YT vid on how to convert it to also have harmonic sustain - insane £10 mod.
Love the neck - likes the SX. As I got older the thicker necks just feel better.
The body shape with the thinner, longer horns looks like a Peavy Raptor Plus Exp. And the S S H pickups with two knobs also looks like a Raptor.
I could tell it was inspiring you to play. Always a sign of a great instrument
That's a beast! It's nice to see Vola doesn't just do shredder pointy guitars. Any chance a FGN guitar (Fugijen) can end up on the channel?
Sweet sounds! The so much loved it!
Guitars a beauty Shane. Great playing! Enjoy.
Very cool. As a fellow lefty player (and a lover of Japanese quality) I went and looked at their website - couldn't find the "Strat" model you're playing in lefty, only a lefty "Tele" style. Do you have a link for the one you're playing in lefty online somewhere? Thanks!
I think I'm in love.
Sounds great. Sick playing Shane! But the headstock :O kill it before it breeds!
Vola does a very nice job as do you! Thanks.
Great review Shane. It's a great looking and sounding guitar. I have a Suhr Classic, love it. does this guitar split the bridge for position 2 so you get traditional out of phase sound?
Great guitar! I’d love to play one.
Beautiful guitar, inside and out. But that err....what do you call it....like a slight curve at the back strap pin really bugs me. It's like the luthier bit the chunk out of that back before installing the pin......
I really think it's something unique rather than just making it like every other strat-type guitar. :) It's definitely not for everyone but after about 10 minutes I got used to it :)
@@intheblues that's....a good point. I guess it's also one way for them to avoid getting sued by other guitar companies for copyright or something....😂
Yep MIJ guitars quality are pretty damn good . Nice tones and playing Shane. You should have a look at super elite guitars from Japan called Sugi Guitars !
Sounds Sweet!
I almost expected hear Layla at that opening rift lol
haha thanks, Peter! I love that song hehe :-)
Shane doesn't want a copyright strike lol.
Hmmm.... Has Shane finally found his S type keeper guitar ???
I really love it. Even if I get the 50s Strat, I am keeping this, its different enough to warrant both :)
That tone its making my wallet cry 😢
Sounds like a blues song!
@@intheblues LOL!
Why string tree though? Sire S7FM is more beautiful, and doesn't have this additional friction point. More stable tuning.
Hahaha.. you couldn't find the whammy bar during the unboxing video. I was gonna ask if you eventually found it. Well, looks like you found it, then lost it 😝
Sounds sweet... 😀
Sounds GREAT Shane! (Unlike the LEMON Casino I bought a few days ago!) :o(
It sure sounds great......
Interesting that it is similar weight to a Strat. The body looks thicker than a Fender Strat.
Sweet. 💕🙂
Visually, the guitar has an "Ibanez-ish" vibe to it. Sort of like something that Andy Timmons would play.
Actually looks like the Fernandes LE 2 as far as headstock shape is concerned.
Great guitar, except it's backwards, I think.
This second review that ive seen on this gtr and I just dont think the pickups sound good at all. Thin, sometimes just on the edge of ice pick in the head. Not at this price point.
So sad to say ..but ...a vast majority of guitar players during these times may only not be able to afford another guitar but will be forced to sell a few of their favorite guitars ...Sometimes reality sucks ☹️
How about the overall action hight?
And hence the thick neck profile not suitable for smaler hands?
Greetings from Holland 🇳🇱
Ibanez meets Fender. Nice But you know some Day you Will end up with a Vintage Strat.🙏👍🙈
But is it an Ibander or a Fenanez?
Imagine...Putting a chrome covered humbucker in your Classic Vibe.....Then, compare the tones and feel. Then the price. Heheheheh
That is a plan of mine. Unless Vola noticed my meager little channel and felt sorry for me lmmfao! Hahah Shane you are amazing man!
The more people that buy these the sooner Fender and Gibson will get the message that we are over their poor QC and overpriced guitars.
I think the companies for that message ... It's whether the consumer gets it that counts ? And even then - who influences the consumer ....marketing again.
? QC, price? Do we all just say what everyone else says? Did you notice the cost of this instrument? Professional quality instruments cost professional quality dollars that’s all. All three brands are expensive top shelf instruments.
@@stephenhookings1985 Absolutely. Ron Thorn makes a guitar using his own name and it sells for $10k. He makes the same guitar working at Fender and it sells for $50k or more. like you said - it's all marketing and Fender and Gibson do marketing better than anyone else.
@@tdunster2011 I don't doubt that many expensive guitars feel great. And I am super happy if someone buys one and can play it. But for me I get a kick out of spotting an underdog and making that okay well enough for me. If I factor in my time to fix them they are becoming more expensive than buying a decent guitar off the shelf. The odd thing - even decent guitars need some setup and now that flips my previous point. And if you are gonna learn guitar setup from Dave's World of Fun Stuff, Darrel Braun or Sam Deeks then better to start with a Harley Benton or SX or 2nd hand Squier cos you won't mind if you break them. Suddenly for modest tool investment, reasonable time investment you can setup guitars and if you been practising then you find out tone IS in your fingers - including the ones you used to setup a guitar. So at that point you are ready to buy that expensive guitar - except you don't need to at that point because you have it in front of you :-).
That's where I am on my bass/guitar journey. The marketing I listened to was Dave, Darrel, Sam and the playing I listened to was Shane and Darrel on a range of guitars.
Tone for sure is in the fingers - and a decent amp or good multi effects amp/cab sim with headphone... Decent setup, shielding, orientation from amp (to cut down single coil noise) and motivation to play and above all have fun. I don't need marketing to sell me that - I just got to want to achieve it for myself :-)
And the DEEPEST irony - that Dave Gilmour tone I seek ... One variant is front pickup of a strat, tone at 2 ... Turn that finger tone DOWN and you get that bell soulful mourning sound. Now crank up that valve amp and have some fun ... I mean it's not like your neighbors are in during the day to come banging on the door? :-) ok use the modelling pedal in headphone mode.
And I thank Gibson and Fender for brining guitars to the mass market. Squire, SX and Harley Benton for making them good enough for the mass market. And all the folks I mention for showing how to setup. Darrell and Shane for showing us how to play - even if one of them is upside down and mirror image :-)
Sounds great, not keen on the looks though👍
Done buying expensive guitars......what I mean by that..... anything over $800.00....just not worth to me.....if you can afford it great......I've had enough,
God, I really just can't get over pointy Strat shaped objects. Pass.
Luckily there are plenty of traditional Strats out there for you.
