TRYING A RANDOM $350 HEADLESS GUITAR FROM AMAZON...
The pickups sounded better than I expected for a budget Amazon guitar. They sounded fairly warm and clear. The split coil tone was decent too.
All pickups produced in the past 10 years sound fairly decent
You could plug a pogo stick into a Mesa and it would sound alright.
@@donbishop6994 Can confirm. I plugged my old Razor scooter into a Mesa and it sounded heavenly.
@@TylerJohnstonGuitar 😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣
@@donbishop6994 Don't steal my idea, man.
8:43 - 8:48 is my favorite transition of all time. I have no idea why but that chug-to-clean-chord switch absolutey wrecked me.
Ain't no way that's Super Shy by New Jeans in the intro
You basically compressed Gojiras whole Magma Album into a demo track, love it
Headless guitars, as divisive as they are, are some of my favorite to play. So glad other people are giving them a chance!
What exactly do you mean with that? They have certain specs that usually headless guitars have? How is the headless aspect relevant when you can have the same specs on any normal guitar?
@porkypile what normal guitar doesn't have the weight of a headstock and 0 neck dive?
I play both regular guitars and headless guitars, and for long sessions or more classical guitar style positions for shred headless guitars are amazing.
I know they are not everyone's thing, but I enjoy my strandberg alot.
I used to not be a fan of the headless look and I have been digging them more and more. I want a Vito Bratta signature Steinberger but I don’t have like $7k to get one. 😂
@@porkypile No headstock means better tuning stability, no neck dive, and low weight.
Also, have you noticed that jigsaw shape at the back? It allows you to play in the (more efficient) classical guitar position. People have claimed to have recovered from wrist injuries and arthritis thanks to switching to a Strandberg.
Abasi concept guitars and Klein guitars also do the Classical thing, but without being headless. Ergonomics matters as much as specs.
@@12askerr I don't believe Vito ever had a signature one. He played a GM style, which I believe Mike Rutherford from Genesis had a hand I'm designing.
Awesome demo. Judging by the creativity / inspiration you got this guitar is worth the price for sure !!
Or Polaris for that matter.
Is Agufish playing NEW JEANS? Bro. High five.
Times are hard
You should check out novander's cover/remix of New jeans. It's fuckin nuts
Don’t support K-pop man
Sounded pretty damn good. The tune you came up with sounded very Pertucci -ish. Good stuff Hunter.
I think he would make a killing with a riff writing and recording course
Hey Hunter. Very cool to hear you speak in a Chinese accent. Honor your roots. Great demo track.
never expect hunter to play a new jeans song
Hey Hunter. You keep saying you have little to no experience with headless guitars. Weren't you deeply involved in the development of the Harley Benton Dullahan? I would think that qualified you to critique a headless guitar more than most other people, no?
3.25 and it sounds a little like EVERY OTHER GUITAR YOU’VE HAD ON THE CHANNEL 🤣. Not to worry. I watch anyway 🤙
I thought the clean tones were actually really nice. The heavier chugs sounded a bit flat. On a side note, im definitely getting a Digitec Whammy
Man I did not need to see that these things are actually decent. I've been fighting the urge to buy a cheap headless guitar, but I might give in.
Thanks for describing you writing process.. that was pretty cool insight!
To be fair. I bought one of those NO headless models just for the heck of it for like £100 2nd hand and it became a daily guitar for me. Just sits by my desk at work plugged into my interface and play whenever I get a free minute. Lovely thing one it had frets done
Digging the tone of those pickups. I have a customer who is a Steinberger collector, and I've tried a couple of his. This thing is really tempting to me.
That shipping box though.
I've eyeballed the B& Z's for awhile. Heard a decent amount of good on them. Didn't realize this was multiscale! So subtle like you said. Kinda decided this would be my headless once I get around to it with money and not having my wife be upset with me buying another (which is fair). Glad to see another review on these!
Hearing you play Matchbox Twenty in the end threw me for a bit of a loop, haha.
Get a headless guitar. Play some Matchbox 20. LOL. love it.
Still suprised a kiesel hasn't ended up on the channel yet
I didn't think Boya & Ziqi was still around. Sweet!🤘
that Supershy lick at the beginning 👀 lol
It was driving me crazy that the intro tune sounded so familiar but I couldn't remember what it was and days later realized it's New Jeans' Super Shy ahaha
I bought a dirt cheap Eart headless on Amazon a couple of years ago out of curiosity and it's great.
Seems like it would be perfect to play some Protest the Hero riffs.
i love the intro riff being super shy by new jeans LMAO
dude opened with supershy HAHAHAHA
Guitar looks decent for the price. Brand name, I could do without lol.
it's incredible how no one in the comments got that super shy intro
the super shy intro 👌👌👌👌🤌🤌🤌🤌
Okay that whole harmonic section of the demo song was pretty sick!!!
Dude, the demo track was pretty sweet, very well done man.
🗣I'M SUPER SHY‼️
now wait a minute while i make you mine
I’m not much for modern metal but that track was killer! Next: get a Strandberg Boden 😊
I only know two places to leave this and this is one of them.
Dean is working with Eastwood on a Baritone.
Literally on the other end of the spectrum from what you showed in this video, I know...but...
Demo track's like Lamb of God meets Soilwork.
Holy shit, idk if that bass in the demo was recorded or programmed, but that tone is so sick
I bought one of the Eart ( GW2 I think, it's the one with the magnetic tuning handle. ) headless guitars and it's fantastic. Ridiculously comfortable to play no matter if I'm standing, sitting, or stretched out on the couch.
Is it just me or was that Super Shy and then some Matchbox20? You rule, kid.
And then some Stones! Keep on killing it, man.
Hello 👋🏻 Hunter , that was easily worth the 💵 money. That was a really great sounding track you put together! Everything fit together very well on that one. Almost like it’s cheapness Somehow made you want to throw down hard and get decent sounds out of it in spite of that fact! 😄🤟🏻actually a good sounding guitar for that kind of money 💰🎸🙂
That Track Was Filthy!
Your A Rockstar!
My cat loves Amazon and their silly over-sized boxes!
Bro that looks really good imo
I'd 100% buy a riff writing course from Hunter. Whatever process you use for riff writing is immense. I definitely wana learn to play riffs like you do.
It looks like they raised the price by $40 just like they did to KYG. How was it in Classical position? That is the whole point of that shape.
You should try headless NK Guitar. Check it out!
The demo sounds really good
That was a pretty killer jam.
Really neat. I got real curious on the affordable headless guitar earlier this year and got my hands on an EART GW2. Fretwork and playability is fantastic. My only gripe is if I wanted to change the bridge hardware for something different I’d probably need a tech or luthier lol
Playing I want to push you around? Did you just watch Barbie? LOL
Honestly didn't expect much but I was pretty impressed. Might make a good traveler guitar me vs lugging a pricier guitar around when I travel for work.
It's a pretty guitar! Especially for a headless.
I don't exactly get the "headless" thing. It's cool that those that do have more options these days, though. Good for them!
Now compare it to a Strandberg!
They put the jack in the right spot!!! That one might be worth looking at.
I would have bought one of these a while ago if I knew my Ormsby was going to take a year to get here.
Every headless guitar needs to have a ring in place of the headstock so it can be hung on a wall. Also, instead of or before replacing the pickups, try taking the covers off, then lowering the pickup significantly and compensating the height by significantly raising the pole pieces.
Are you going to be demoing the new schecter triple coil guitars?
I stayed cuz you said "periphery" ❤
Can you change the bridge to a bridge with trembar? Just asking cause i wanna put some upgrades on my guitar also.
Same price as an EART on Amazon in Canada. $519 useless CDN bucks for both. Sounds fine for the $. Playability, action are another thing but you seem fine playing it. Any POS can be tweaked into the sweet spot.
This is great. Honestly the first time I've seen you play as I always only ever see your shorts. New sub.
10:20 - “all you wanted” by Michelle Branch
Honestly for 400 bucks that's a pretty impressive sound
Dumb question and maybe I missed in video: regular strings can be used? I’ve seen “adapter” things for some headless guitars like Steinbergers over the years
"DigiTech Whammy. Trust me: Get one!" Sound advice, Hunter. I got my first one back in the 80s, as in BEFORE YOU WERE BORN!😎🥸
They put the output jack in the right spot! Seems like a win.
I'd be interested to hear what you think of the J&D DX-100 guitar. It looks very solid for the money with some nice modern additions
that super shy tho
There is someone somewhere who doesn't understand why everyone is playing 3AM lately... and I hope they get better soon.
Thank god I’ve been looking at these contemplating
Overall, pretty sick I'd say.
I HAVE WATCHED U FOR 4 YEARS NOW U U DONT DISAPOINT
Anybody know what's going on with Randall Amplification?
A bad polish job makes no sense to me. No fret polishing makes sense since you're skipping the step altogether to cut costs, but a few minutes with a buffing wheel on a Dremel tool leaves you with a mirror finish. It's too easy to half ass.
super shy by newjeans at the start omd wasn't expecting that lol
First off, shorten that damn strap, that ain't no Les Paul.😂
Gotta say I dig it.
If they were really ss frets they shouldn't need polishing. I built a guitar with ss frets a while back and the frets have never needed polishing. Maybe there's grades of ss frets?
dude the intro is fucking SICK 🔥🔥
Not sure about that bridge? It looks identical to the one on the HB you designed, no?
I'd have one as a travel instrument for vacations or if I'm traveling for whatever reason as far as the multi scale thing the low strings don't always have to be above 25.5 inches for example you can make a guitar with the 25.5 on the bass side and 24 and 3 quarters like a Gibson on the treble strings it's so you get a good tension between all the strings
This one is 25.5 on the bass side and 25" on the treble side. They did everything they could to make a strandberg clone without the endure neck.
@@zanzabar4ky7 in my opinion why bother? You might as well get a 25.5 guitar at that point considering the difference in tension on the guitar wouldn't noticeable
@@naruto199797 They are cloning a strandberg, and strandberg does it is why. I am not sure it makes sense without the endure neck to shift your hand that way. On the bright side with fanned frets you need a zero fret so the action/intonation in the cowboy region should be great without having to do the nut yourself. You also do not have to deal with a rough slot. I have one of the older swamp ash Plini Strandberg with the same fan/scale and love it. I rarely notice the fan
What happened to all the Dullahans at Thomann? I was getting ready to get one and all of the variations are gone and they only have the black one left.
Allegedly they're refreshing all the lines in the next few weeks. New colours, a few spec changes etc. It could be they've just run down the old stock and don't want to reorder with the new schemes starting soon.
Your song writing is getting pretty awesome.
Lots of Kenergy at 8:48
Kinda cool..ya wanna sell that thing?
The stainless steel they use on those cheap guitars is a very soft grade of stainless steel. They're actually softer than standard nickel silver fret wire. Stainless steel comes in many different grades from soft to very hard. Funny, the Chinese trick players in thinking they're getting the much sought after hard stainless while really getting really soft stainless steel. Try filing or sanding the frets, you'll see what I mean.
Killer riffs, this song is a banger! Tabs?
Hello Hunter
Actually is a great looking guitar and great sounding from what I hear.
The real 350$ question I think everyone should ask - What is the issue what a youtuber get a guitar from an unknown brand? They can send him a 1 off perfect guitar that pass QC. Who is to say the this will be the product a customer gets?
This is my biggest issue with all these amazing and cheap guitars, if the price is too good to be true, there has so be a compromise that we don't know about.
What does it weigh?
You made an erra song
Not in to the guitar but that demo track goes so fuggin hard 🤘
How do you attach the strings at the "headstock"? Do you need "double-ball" strings or can you use regular strings?
This type of hardware catches the ball at the bridge and secures the string with one or two grub screws at the 'headstock'.
@@jcugnoni So it's like having the Locking Nut of a Floyd Rose at the headstock, but no tuners. The screws just lock the string in place, right?
@@davelanciani-dimaensionx yes exactly.
It looks double locking from the pics in user reviews. You run the ball end on the top, lock in the bridge, pull it tight, lock the nut end, and trim the ball off
The only thing I'd modify on it for me is give it a head i like guitars with head
One of the Amazon reviews says, "But there's no truss rod to adjust, just a steel reinforcement and the neck is set basically flat." That's confusing me.
I Love headless guitars. Never going to buy a headstock-ed guitar again.
Kinda sounds like TooL
