    the white fretboard fits the Dethklok universe so well, but I'm also surprised you never see any other companies making fun guitars (dethklok related or not) with a pure white fretboard because it looks super cool.

    Bought mine just over a year ago, love it and so glad I got it before the inevitable price bump these will get by being featured on Trogly’s! One weird thing with mine is the tailpiece was set really high - haven’t noticed any issues but might screw it down further next time I change strings.

    If Gibson puts it back into production, it should be done with a urethane clearcoat installed of nitro. That would keep it from ever yellowing. I don't believe I have ever seen a modern white car become yellow over time, so a guitar definitely wouldn't.

  • @clarkbabin9799
    @clarkbabin9799 Год назад +3

    That's a pretty awesome model but I think if I were to get one I'd have to go with the epiphone model. Austin you need to get you a loop station so you can really rock us putting your rythm on the track and jumping to your leads.

  • @tvviewer4500

  • @Warhearts
    @Warhearts Год назад +1

    I never pulled the trigger on the Gibson ver. when it first came out and thank god because i hate yellowing and would have had a heart attack if it came damaged. When the epiphone version came out, i asked Brendon Small on instagram if they would yellow as well and he said they fixed that issue for the epiphones(you might still see the comment where i ask him on Instagram) but i took too long to decide and they sold out. I would love to see a follow up video on the epiphone snow falcon to see how they actually aged.
    Also, it sucks they cancelled the snow horse but i didn't know you bought/reviewed the chibson version so ill have to check it out.

    • @Trog
      @Trog  Год назад

      Poly finishes tend to not age/yellow as badly as Nitro. If you leave them in the sun and smoke around them, they still will

    I've learned something new. I never heard of Brendon Smalls. My kids were small from mid 2000s until recently so I missed a lot while I was bulking up my SpongeBob Trivia knowledge. The fret board on the snow falcon makes it very striking. I thought that about the Bucket head Les Paul but I think the unconventional shape and proportions of the flying v make the white fret board look right at home.

    Vagina Guitars were producing guitars with that look of the Snow Falcon long before Gibson ever did & Gibson shut the company down.
    The best promotional thing ever done was the owner of Vagina Guitars paid to park his van right next to the NAMM Show & THOUSANDS of people (including celebrities) were taking pictures next to the van. Aside from seeming like a novelty name, the guitars were really awesome!
