Bought 4 guitars this year. Sold 2 others. The best thing has got to be my new CV '50s Tele in butterscotch with a black guard. It's such a great guitar it has became my new favorite. From what I've seen first hand, the fit and finish of today's high end Squiers is as good or better than the Fender guitars coming out of Mexico. I've got no problem owning a guitar with a Squier trademark on the headstock. Agree that the RevStars are beyond good guitars. Have a red copper RevStar RS320 I got a few years ago that's a real player. Happy Holidays to all!
Great 2022 recap video Kyle! I'm with you about the Squire's (don't forget Epi's), such great value for the $$. Thank you for a great Year of reviews--can't wait to see what you'll be reviewing in 2023.
Thanks Rico! I just realized I didn’t pick up any Epis this year. Hopefully we’ll see some new releases soon and I can grab something. They make some of my favorite guitars for sure. Thanks for all the support and Merry Christmas!
Wow, you got a lot of gear this year I didn't realize just how much equipment you reviewed. What you spent just this year alone is probably more than every guitar, amps, pedals etc. that I own. It must feel good to have such spending privileges. 😄 Have a Merry Christmas and waiting to see what you have in store for us next year.
Haha it’s a balancing act my friend. Saving, planning, budgeting, and looking for deals. Gear cards help too lol. Gear prices are getting so high that it’s going to be tough to keep up the pace though. Hopefully we’ll see some new stuff soon to get excited about so I can purchase irresponsibly again haha. Merry Christmas man, hope you and your family have a great one!
I picked up a Squier Paranormal Thinline Telecaster for $229 during Black Friday. I think Pro Audio still has them for that price. I love the Jazzmaster Style Alnico Pickups. It is really light. It has a gloss maple neck and fingerboard....I also got a Mustang Squier Bullet that I really dig....for $149 bucks!
I tried one of those in the store and really liked it. I thought the pickups were a great combo for that body style. It sounded really snappy and clear. That’s a good deal too! I’ve never played a Mustang, I need to try one.
Great channel Kyle I caught a couple of your videos on RUclips , and know I’m a Subscriber it’s refreshing to see a normal Dude Demoing stuff that he bought that way there no outside influences, great channel.
Merry Christmas Kyle! Great to see reviews that are really honest a n d down to earth! Love your LP, I own one too and mine is a bit of a boat anchor too! Probably why I have played Strats almost exclusively for the last 20 years, lol! Rock on brother!
Hey Kyle...that Ibanez Artcore is nice...i missed that video ..ill watch it now...I knew the Yamaha Revstar would be amongst your favorites... Mine was the Harley Benton SC special in dirty mustard....I'm looking for a vintage Ibanez.... the MC series...MC400 or MC500 Should've bought one about 3 yrs ago...getting pricey now
I was stoked when I found the Ibanez, it’s a cool guitar! Yeah the prices are getting a bit high, I think back on some guitars I passed up a few years ago and wish I had bought them all haha. Is the Harley Benton a full LP style or a special? That color sounds cool, I’ll try to find a pic.
I have really enjoyed your channel, Kyle. It's probably my favorite of the smaller guitar channels. I hope your gear wishes for 2023 all come true. Merry Christmas!
Enjoyed the look back over the year Kyle, a lot of cool guitars! My newbies this year were Epi LP Studio, LP Special P90, and my second Special I HH. Also just recently, my second Squier Bullet Mustang (used pawn shop find, very good condition for only $14 on clearance, no kidding). Also got a Vox Pathfinder to have a simple, portable, reliable amp for practice at home and to carry out for jamming. Sounds real good with a delay/reverb pedal. Oh well, Merry Christmas to you and yours, and to your viewers. Rock on!
@@onemoreguitarchannel Oh they're fun and solidly built. You may have to fiddle with it a little, polish the frets, dress the ends. Maybe not. But they're worth spending a couple hours of TLC to get a great guitar. They're retailing at $179 at GC and probably SW so under $200 with tax, cheaper used and at the pawn shop. But probably not $14- ha! Best deal ever. Take it easy man, I appreciate ya.
I've been thinking about getting either a Revstar or Artcore. Revstars have been sold out everywhere here in Toronto until recently though. The artcore is one I keep meaning to buy, but everytime I've gone, I ended up getting something else entirely.
😂 that’s hilarious! I feel like that’s happened to me several times trying to buy a tele. I end up with something completely different and tell myself, next time I’m getting a tele for sure haha. The Revstar had a wait for several months but it was worth it, it’s a really fun guitar!
Merry Christmas David! I’m definitely digging the Revstar, do you still have yours? I wish they were in stock somewhere so I could try the P90 version. You had the Merlot one right? Great color. I just bought some locking tuners for the Jazzmaster. Plan to keep that one for sure!
@@onemoreguitarchannel The Revstar is definitely a keeper. I put the Hipshot locking tuners with the UMP plate on mine. I‘m still playing that one too. Have a great New Year, Kyle!
Great video Kyle! Thanks for all the cool info you've shared this year and Merry Xmas!
Thanks Mike! Have a great Christmas!

Wow that’s an awesome deal on the Mustang! I think I saw them for around $200 when I was looking recently. I want to try one. Merry Christmas!!

Merry Christmas, Kyle! If I ever buy a humbucker guitar, it will be that Green Yamaha Standard Revstar. Honorable Mention: Squire Affinity Jazzmaster.
