I just finished watching KSE live performance at Bloodstock 2023 and this video was the first thing I saw after going to the homepage. What a coincidence!
I love the pickup's tone, the whole design, and especially the looks of the finish, but I really wish they had a more "vintage" option for the neck shape and mainly the fretboard radius (a little smaller, and more round)
This guitar is such a classy work of art. The white especially is dream guitar territory for me. Killer video as always! Also I'll add. Normally I find the kse bridge pick up to be a bit thin in sound demos. But in this vid the tones are by far some of the best I've heard.
Love the look of the guitar for the most part. The headstock is weird and looks like an Aladdin's shoe. As to the sound, I couldn't help noticing the substantial difference in volume at different settings. That may be great for the studio, but doesn't seem functional for live situation, what do you think?
Looks alot like a Vola strat with a tele layout. The hipshot bridge and string through body are money. Fishmans are meh, but I'm sure it feels and plays like butter. Too much for my pocketbook.
I hate growing up, I technically have enough money in the bank for this… but I “need” a “safety net” in case of emergencies and I need to “plan” for my “retirement”… MY HEART WANTS THE FANCY CHUG MACHINE!
The one thing that keeps bugging me is the soft horn points on the body and the sharp point on the headstock, mixed with a 70s paint job and fishmans. I feel like the guitar is having personality issues and can't recide on what it wants to be. I like the idea of a double cut tele shape though. For the money, I think I would pass on this.
As someone who grew up listening to metalcore I can’t possibly view the devils tail headstock as “ugly”. It’s one of the coolest headstocks I’ve ever seen from any manufacturer. Of course I’m biased.
@@l0rd_breeigo-sama954 lets see.. I own a Jackson pc1 an esp tiger stripe lynch a charvel model 6 crackle finish a Kramer nightswan version model 2 made only for Japan...among other guitars..I own 2 Paul's..I just don't dig satin drab greens browns etc.i like finish on my guitars..and I feel relic is bullshit too since you asked..
one of the best part of living and growing up in western Massachusetts. so many great band and Musicians hail the bay state
Worcester County!
Westfield, MA native here 🤘
GREAT quality guitars. I can vouch. I used them on the DOOM Eternal DLC soundtracks.
Oh shit, you did the Prodeus soundtrack too? That game is sick, great job on the tracks.
Joel is pretty much the reason I play guitar 🤷♂️ killswitch haven’t written ONE bad song in my opinion. Love them.
Same, and Adam D. They’re a dream team.
This mix on that demo track was NUTS
I love to listen to your full mix example so much! Great Review!

I've always wanted an Caparison Horus M3 MF in Tiger Eye, They have the most killer headstock design of any guitar IMO but they're so pricey.
I have a Dellinger, Horus, and Angelus model and all three are fantastic guitars
Aussie black wood is some of the densest wood youll come across. I know because i have to split the stuff for the winter.
I bought a Caparison Dillinger Prominence a few years ago and it’s been great! They make killer guitars.

I wasn’t as crazy about the past white or black model but MAN this V2 is stunning.
Loved the Mix on this one, Fluff . Beautiful guitar
they need a new angelus model, the hipa one is badass, the finish is awesome trans white flame but bring back a hardtail!!!
Great demo riffs! Would love to hear more original music!
Check out Caustic Echoes, The Passing of Moonlight album. KSE vibes
Sounds RAD! I want one!
I like how that basically is a Squier Paranormal Custom Nashville Stratocaster.
Bruh... That thing is sick af... 5 out of 5 Beards!!! 😂😂
Sounds great Fluff! Wasn’t Caparison started by the guys that ran the Japanese Jackson factory back in the day?
When I first saw the title, I thought it was a typo and you were doing a comparison video
Yooo this axe looks savage
That is an INTERESTING looking Telecaster
Is it a Strat? A tele? A Jackson? The Mish mash of styles is wild!

The lack of power of the SSA between the kse signature is huge !
Is the level of the mic in the body too low ?
I’m just disappointed the KSE guitars don’t have killswitches on them
😂😂😂😂😂
It's a really nice guitar...
Sick
Nice 😊
That’s definitely a look. lol. Sounds great though! Assuming it probably plays well.

holy shit the mix sounds H U G E on this demo
sick , good to see EMG's getting some love.
nice advert bro
That price hurts, it do be nice though. They don't even make a non signature series tele :(
damn that is a beaut!
Why doesn't it have a killswitch
Is everything still all radioactive in japan?
Yes it actually increases speep. Making you like a modern day x-man.
This looks like an Ibanez RG ate a Telecaster and now the Tele is trying to escape
Not a bad looking guitar.
3899.00 though.... 💰💰

This is an emergency, you need the chugs stat
I'd go bankrupt breathing the same air as this guitar.
Nothing compares to esp ❤❤❤imo.
Great guitars but they cost an arm and a leg.
Nice guitar, but way too overpriced.
lol $3,899.00
Oof, that AxeFX tone is nasty (and not in a good way). Nice guitar though.
God that does NOT work for me, that pickguard is atrocious on a super strat shape, caparison make nice guitars but that’s a no from me

I like when things don’t conform. I dig those features
That headstock is ugly no matter what body you put it in 🤣

@@snapascrew It looks like a failed cousin of the esp teardrop headstock 🤣
This thing is ugly, but I’m sure it plays really well.
Damn, cost to much.
And today we check out a $4000 guitar that isn’t any more special than a $600 guitar.
Jokes on you, it’s more comparable to a $2000 guitar
Joke is on both of you, that’s shit poor people say.
Well buy your 600$ guitar. 😂
Hahahahahahahahahahahahahah that thing is a eye sore
Literally all of your comments are you shitting on guitars. Do you only like gibson and nothing Else?

The caparison headstock takes the most ugly headstock cake easily.
