@@molly-bd2lo I wish someone had told me the first time. I broke my high e string for the first time S had to buy a new pack of strings and decided to replace all the strings at the same time. I then broke my high e and didn't have another :(

Yes indeed although the extra e string isn't in case it breaks while putting it on (as said in the video) it's because the high e string is always the one that breaks. Mid solo 🤘
Stay in tunes(sit) are the best strings on the market. And you get an extra high e and b string, and if you get .011 and up you get a wound or unwound g string and they last forever.
why the thumbs downs theres always a few misery guts out there - this is really well presented great gift ideas for guitar players - perfect PMT top job
oooo my first amp ever was the Spider V 30, i dont care what anyone says, its a great little amp, and makes starting out on electric guitar so much fun! after playing a cheap acoustic for 4 years, i finally got enough money for a fender strat, and an amp. never been happier!
Thicker strings definitely give a "bigger" sound, particularly on an acoustic. I just put some 13s on my acoustic because it doesn't have enough neck relief and I'm trying to bow it a little - and holy crap, these strings seem twice as loud as the 10s or 11s I had on it before.
My top 10 no particular order 1. Picks 2. Pedals 3. Strings 4. A Telecaster 5. A slide 6. An amp 7. Whammy bar 8. Tuner 9. A Stratocaster 10. A Gibson SSG
Those are not very good because those depend highly on the guitarist’s tastes and preferences. We all have picks, strings, guitars and amps that we love and wish we had... and picks, strings, guitars, and amps that I wouldn’t touch with a ten-foot pole...
Forget cables, strings and tuners, we will already have those. We love stuff.. sometimes we love stupid stuff too, especially as presents. My girlfriend bought me a Fender branded Telecaster kitchen chopping board. It's the best pressie ever. I refuse to use lesser squire, epiphone or Yamaha chopping boards. The tone is just amazing... cutting salads? Sorted.. Steaks? ... brilliant. Bread...... meh... not so much, the denser woods of the Gibson is still better for sliced bread. This advert is bought to you by the man who thought that the Gibson Firebird would look better as a coffee table.
thats funny! i have a gibson sg double neck coffee table! im still using my old first act cutting board though. it really doesnt work very well, alot of buzz.
Couldn't agree with #5 more. Any time I buy a guitar, I get straplocks while I'm there at the store. Thankfully my cheapo Epiphone Les Paul I used to carry around in high school BEFORE I discovered straplocks is built like a fucking tank, that thing got dropped on the headstock (on concrete no less) more times than I can count and it's still in great shape.
What is the difference between a chorus and a phase? I am starting a pedal board right now. I already have a tuner, boss distortion and a analog delay. I just need a overdrive, chorus/phase/flange etc., and a wah pedal. Do you have any idea which pedals I need to buy?
No plectrums? That's is easiest and cheapest gift! Just find out the preference.....mine is Dunlop Vortex .88 mm greens! This June of this year (2023), I have been playing guitar for 42 years....whew! 😂 And after lots of gigs, rehearsals, practice, whatever....I rarely break strings. And that's because D'addario XL's are simply the best!
Word of caution with the bandlab analog link. It's not good with Android at all. It was developed for iOS and then they tagged Android on to the device. Androids will always have latency issues and cannot take advantage of the cool things the AP does. Also if your phone doesn't have a headphone jack your gonna have to use the dongle adapter with your phone.
I just about vomited when you said a starter pack came with a Spider V. Line 6 has done fucked up with that combo amp line. Also, I would personally suggest Focusrite's 2i2 for a first audio interface. I use it, and love it.
20 Years ago I got a Yamaha ERG121 starter pack as my 1st electric. Still have the amp. Sadly an ex has the guitar. Can't find a ERG121 for love nor money now. If anyone has one give me a shout!. If not the pacifica maybe the way to go.
There's a special place in heaven for those who include extra E strings in their product
indeed
That's the absolute best thing I've ever seen in my entire life!
god bless the guy at the guitar store who recommended them to me for my first time changing strings

Ibrahim Rakietă 😂
The only thing I’d be missing then is a 12 string
I'd be happy with a pack of picks..
whaaaaat abooouuut....... a guitar?
Packs with en extra high e string? My prayers have been heard!
Yes indeed although the extra e string isn't in case it breaks while putting it on (as said in the video) it's because the high e string is always the one that breaks. Mid solo 🤘
Why not invest in mechanics that wont break your strings?
Pretty good strings, and here it's cheaper than the Ernie ball, daddario, elixir etc... Strings
Does anyone know why my high e breaks when I tune to d standard?
@@cesarbeltran6583 is it breaking at the middle of the string? (12th fret) , ot somewhere else?
buy me a pack of 500 picks, they'll last AT LEAST a week.
I put all my picks in a box and now the box is gone.... great...
@@kevinli5479 lmao
Joe I somehow have managed to keep a pick for a month now. Don’t ask me where the thousands of others have went.
gemstones pick is also another interesting option
Joe The Mysterious disappearing picks.
Just for clarification for non-musicians buying for guitarist. Do NOT order your loved one a “strap-on”
👀
Or just do it they'll probably get use for it 🤷♀️
Codpieces however, are appreciated.
you can if you want though i can use one
or do, bigot

Russel Brand at it again!
I see Colin Farrell, no?
....does Russell Brand have bangs too? I thought when guys grew their hair long...they didnt do bangs?
@@Gr8Layks Colin Farrell....now there's a dude that would wear bangs.
Strap Locks! Mind, blown. Awesome vid as always dude!
Force User Strap Locks are the best invention (though my strap already had a locking system). Other than guitars of course.
Zip ties are where it’s at my man
NO NO NO DO NOT BUY ME STRINGS I AM VERY PARTICULAR.
- Very particular person
Anyone else planning to gift themselves?!!😆
Lol😂
Mm planning to gift myself dat omec teleporter
I gifted myself, ended up getting returned though :-/
Those universal stands are really universal. I use one for my hurdy gurdy, and my mum has one for her cello. They’re insane.
Always fun watching Dagan. Knows his stuff, too!
"Gear acquisition syndrome or GAS for short"
I'm stealing that LOL
Another pretty amazing mini practice amp is the Boss Katana Mini. Insane power behind it and it sounds really really good
You just listed 8 things i'm getting myself for christmas... Great vid as always!
Russell Brand got stranded on a desert island with Cap'n Jack Sparrow...
Lol nailed it
@@beefnacos6258 yeah they did
That accent change got me by surprise 6:17
Note to self* Play more guitar and stop watching RUclips only to ask one's self ' where has my day gone'?
Big facts
Stay in tunes(sit) are the best strings on the market. And you get an extra high e and b string, and if you get .011 and up you get a wound or unwound g string and they last forever.
The chooners, though, need to keep my guitar in chune.
Jon Stewart stop no stop just-
Bought my self a new amp and a new pedal for christmas, just because.
Did i realy need another amp, and another pedal!?
HELL YEAH!!!
Vintage pick box .. there are some beautiful old tin box’s that are absolutely perfect for storing and carrying picks .
I’ve had my favorite pick for years now. I don’t often lose picks
He's so excited about pedals, love the enthusiasm

AAAAAHHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
Dagan....I Love you man..!! 👌✌️❤️🎸
Why not just make it ten and just have it be the top ten ?
Well this one goes to 11
Legendary reference
Nice
Most guys gift lists go to 10, 10, 10, all the way across. What happens if you need that extra gift, where do you go? Dagans list goes to 11. Exactly.
They now go to twelve
You must do more with youtube (a canal with another subject) because you are so good at making videos!
Thanks Dagan! So informative as always!
Best gift -> picks
Change my mind
Konstantin Asenov Only if they know which ones you use. Sometimes they get you huge picks that just suck or picks that don't last.
I can afford picks myself.
A duesenberg starplayer on the other hand...
Another underrated gift is a guitarist food stand! It makes it a lot more comfortable to play sitting down, for me at least
Thanks for the useful info Dagan!
I could watch this channel all day!

When he said “electric guitars are where it’s at” I immediately looked over at my acoustic and went full defence mode.

Things I want as a guitarist:
Used good pickups
Better tuners
Strings
Paid amp simulators
Audio interface
Cashew Walnut What I want is -A better amp
-Someone to jam with lol
Especially the someone part.
rotosounds are my faborite too
One day I’m traveling all the way to Newcastle just to buy something off this dude 😂😂
I am an AC/DC guy too, and electric takes over acoustic by 1,000,000
I love you videos and your gear reviews. Always great content. But the way you say computer is driving me up the wall!!!
hes such a good salesman dang
Delicious gifts
I already have the stand , trust me it works great 👍
Thank you Lord Farquad

Dagan: "starter pack"
Wireless. XVive U2. See? Was that so hard?
No, because I finally got one haha. Best thing ever.
Thanks
Two items in and you've already got the popcorn maker I once got beat.

Anyone know what the archtop guitar at 3:50 on the left of him is?
Can anyone tell me what the song at 7:32 is called?
The Pacificas are entirely reasonable guitars eh? They’d give Squires a run for their money definitely
Nice stuff!
How about a lunch with Dagan as a gift?
is the black les paul behind him just at the end of the video a gibson or epiphone? could not see the price on the label..
Cables... you can never have enough
