- A VERY WTF GUITAR UNBOXING!!!!
I swear man, I just don't understand how some people's brains work(or don't work in this case). The level of laziness, irresponsibility, and just sending the message of "I don't care" is astonishing to me. You guys will see in the video why I was so mad when this guitar showed up. I was just stunned. Things ended up working out ok, but they could've been a total disaster! Never, EVER, EVERRRRRR send someone a guitar or item like this to someone!!!! I'm still shocked that it made it to my house unharmed. Aside from that, I hope you guys enjoy this video and if so: LIKE, COMMENT, SUBSCRIBE, and SHARE it!!! Help a brother out :) Thanks so much for watching and supporting, you guys are awesome!!!! - Видеоклипы
Hope everybody had a great weekend! If any of you received a new guitar, I really hope that the seller didn't ship it to you like this!!!
My acoustic guitar is coming in Thursday...They better sent it in Good shape....
Same to you. Love your vids Kevin. Hey what’s the name of the black/red hanging behind you?
Moser
That’s one of my biggest fears of buying a guitar online and having it shipped. Also, I can relate man. I’m finally making really good money and can afford guitars and gear that I always wanted. Great vid man, can’t wait to hear that guitar with better pickups in it🤟🏻
Couldn't agree more with you Sir. If you are gonna ship a guitar it must be packaged correctly.
Trogly's Channel has a couple great videos covering the correct/proper way to package a guitar for shipment.
I have a theory that this man actually can’t play and the guitars are playing themselves outa plain fear
Omg this is great
Lmao
yea lol
Hahahaha
💀💀
“beneath life? the case should have been beneath a shit ton of bubble wrap with a case” lmaooo
Box?
Kevin is like the big humble giant. He’s not a guy you would mess with on the streets randomly but if you know him he’s just a friendly giant. Lol.
He’s big and humble seeming sure, but a giant? Bro, he’s clearly a steady 5’5”. Abysmally large and vascular biceps doesn’t make someone a giant.
@@Bravo-Too-Much I love this channel but Kevin's juiced up to his eyebrows. Those cycles will catch up to him past middle age, makes your arms look like bags of gravel. Also he's cruising at about 5'9, his proportions make him look shorter sitting down.
@Sam Grant and pissing feel like your trying to do it face down, in gravel..
Juice head turkey
@@BiggyBigBoy hes natty search it up
As a ups employee I can verify the mistreatment of packages. The hasty demand for speed when moving things through the warehouse causes chaos. Employees trying to be gentle and careful are punished and harrassed. Also jams on the conveyers can cause alot of damage. As a musician I personally treated instruments and music gear with great respect but as for everyone else....
I worked at ups fir 11 years and I was the damage overgoods clerk. No way in hell that center didn't have boxes to form a box for that. I woukd have never let a guitar or any instrument go through like that as a guitar player/ musician myself. If the center had proper people working this could have been easily avoided.
Agreed... I work in the shipping industry and yea, I’m surprised anything makes in one piece!!!
I packed trucks for ups, (back in the 90’s). their managers were total dicks, it doesn’t sound like they’ve changed much.
I can confirm this. I worked in a ups warehouse for a few months and I used to watch the people who load trucks throw boxes. They get treated like slaves and get yelled at about everything. Super short breaks with supervisors counting down their breaks by the minute
Yup. Worked for FedEx for a while. We threw shit and laughed about it lol
I like how you mentioned no matter what "instrument", ship it properly
Thomann shipped me a $150 guitar in 3 boxes...no excuse for that shit!
@@ericvernon1182 Fuck it, as long as its in good condition. Whether its a 150 or 2500, its still valid to play and have fun.
@@bmorestance i meant "no excuse" for shipping a (probably) expensive guitar in a bare case with a piece of cardboard taped to it...the other was an example of how to properly ship something...
@@ericvernon1182 It's just dumb as hell to do that, because when it breaks (and it will break eventually) it's coming right back, and ebay or reverb or whatever will side with the customer and you're shit out of luck.
Even when I ship guitar bodies I load it with more bubble wrap than fits in the box lol
“The emo cut your wrist cause I can’t stop crying” yeah I lost it 😂😂😂
🤣
the way he said it, he made me feel so ashamed for liking emo holy hell😂😂😂
@@nightmxreinc.5888 ikr, damn, to be fair that was the scene a while ago, think sit's a bit different now but brutal XDD
Yeah never felt more personally attacked
@Destination Exile edgy
This is why I like your channel, Kevin. It's just honest and no bullshit. You're not trying to put on some massively and overly exaggerated persona to compensate for the lack of good content. Just a dude who appreciates playing some decent music. As real as it gets. Keep it up, my man!!
I liked this until I finished reading it. "Lack of good content"? What a backhand!
@@ricksanchezito8972 Backhand? I'm praising the man for his efforts for bringing us all the content he does. Would never throw shade at Kevin. As far as I'm concerned, the man's got nothing but respect coming from my way
@@RacingwithMax *until*
@Rick Sanchezito needs to take a class in basic reading skills.
Early 90's MIJ guitars are really just something else. Be it Jackson, Ibanez, Fender, whoever. Amazing guitars for great prices.
Even back into the 80s, I had an early 80s (i want to say 83 or 84) Fender HM Strat back in the early 2010s/late 2000s that my ex pawned on me. That thing was the only strat I have ever absolutely loved and I haven't found another like it.
Recently picked up a 1982 MIJ Washburn Force 3. It’s beat to hell but I had a lot of fun restoring it and I love it to death. It’s got the soft V-taper neck style that Dimebag was a fan of. It’s a sick little super strat.
@@Shuffit Hell yeah! Buying old MIJ guitars and restoring them is one of my favorite hobbies. They are always structurally sound IME, just need some TLC and maybe some new hardware and it's back to shredding! Never played a MIJ washburn, I bet it's sick!
@@higler. I like it too and yes, all my older MIJ guitars are very well made. My other favorites are an 89 Yamaha Pacifica and an Ibanez Roadstar II fret less bass. The Washburn is cool, they designed the bolt-on necks with an extended heel design that inserts into the body giving it a deep cut design with really good upper fret access. The Pacifica I have has a similar design but the extended heel is made from steel, which blew my mind when I took it apart. They made some cool stuff in the 80’s.
@@Shuffit super cool stuff, thanks for sharing!
I'm SO relieved this guitar was not destroyed! This is music history and Jackson history. It needs to stay preserved and played. FUCK YES
Just seeing his love for his guitars and how he breaks it down man that’s pure joy, god bless you man def reliving your nostalgia
I love how no matter what the video is about, you’re thankful for the viewers, halarious, and straight up amazing to watch man! (Also, the muscles add so much power to your videos) love your channel man! Keep shredding🤘🏼🤘🏼🤘🏼
C# standard Suffocation and Black Sabbath!!🤘🏼🤘🏼
Kev, you're most welcome.
Thank you for your consistency, and for being straight talking and honest to your viewers.
Stay well dude
Imagine being the dude that sent this guitar terribly wrapped and seeing this guy open it man I’d have a 24/7 sweat until the grave
Been watching you for years.. hell yes!!! Keep on keepin on
That 'packaging' was painful to look at, glad it turned out alright though. Wholesome as always ✨
I've been building guitars and basses for about 25 years, almost all with someone else's name on the headstock, and most of them go to a company facility where it is repacked into their specific packaging, with their correct case candy. I always packed them in multiple layers of secure protection. Now that the instrument we'll have the company name of the business which my wife and I started recently oh, I will be packaging the guitars and basses even more securely now. Given that our instruments cost anywhere between $2,500 and $8,000 on average with some warranting a price as high as $15,000 to $18,000 even $20,000, and I am meticulous about everything it's a no brainer to over-package them
Had to laugh at the Beneath some effin bubble wrap dig. That was great.
Very sweet guitar bro! Packaging sin aside, glad you are stoked. Keep on rocking 🤘🏼
I've watched several videos over the last year or so. In all honesty this genre of music here really doesn't do anything for me, but neither do half of my favorite guitar channels. I like watching this one because there a bit of cognitive dissonance between the big jacked out guy in the thumbnail and what you'd expect, and the humble and gracious man you find when you actually watch it.
I get the nostalgia hit myself whenever I play something that I loved as a teenager when I couldn't afford them. I'm probably in the same age range, I graduated highschool in 1994. That was an almost musically schizophrenic time to be a teenager. When I started highschool it was Skid Row, GnR (though they were still popular later too) and Queensryche. But senior year it was Nirvana (though I was never a huge fan), Pearl Jam, mudhoney and NIN.
I remember when I bought my first Floyd Rose equipped guitar with the Allen wrench mounted on the back of the headstock. I thought it was the coolest thing because I would see it on the guitars everyone were playing on MTV. Funny how insignificant things like that have an outweighed attraction.
All the best to you Kevin. You're such a humble human being :-)
Kevin you got a great thing goin and I told you before.....I played then quit as a teen for 20 years until I saw your video and the passion just flooded back into me. The video was the Solar 7 string V that Ola sent you....seeing your emotion was all it took.....i now own multiple guitars including a solar 1.6 and I thank you because if not for you I would have never started playing again 2 years ago. Thank you bro and I hope your health is still goin good. Stay metal brother!!
I was not expecting KF to play Slayer. Great unboxing video!
That guitar is like a mustang with a 6 cylinder in it. That pickup needs to go! Awesome videos man 🤘🤘🤘
I understand that some people are a little picky with their sound, but in My honest opinion, I actually think it sounds fucking brutal as fudge!!!! 🤘 🤘 🤘 🤘
Nah
@@thelombaxsystemtv7492 because of his amp
Definitely. I had a Squier Jagmaster with those Duncan Design pickups and they were garbage.
I put humbuck sized p90s in my Jackson =)
I have 2 Stealth Professionals, a 93 and a 94. Both hardtails with the triple humbuckers. Amazing quality and like you I bought the first one in early 00's and the other a few years ago. Definitely diamond in the rough. Secretly amazing guitars. Great vid, happy new guitar day.
I love your story and excitement when you opened Jackson Professional. Passion and playing can not beat that feeling. I recent got my three favorite guitars and what a feeling each is different action and tone.
Glad to see ya back on this. Amazing musician!
Really enjoy yer vids Kev. Probably the only guitar channel I'll sit through and watch the whole thing! Need some big brands sending you free shit so you can put it through the paces!!!
I have one of these, built in late 91 and bought new in early 92 in the UK. The UK release had Reflex post gain pick ups and a Schaller J52 trem.
Haven't played it in a few years.....now after watching this I want to dust it off and play it again! 🤘🏻
Nice buy!!..love those old Jacksons...I've had many but kept none..sadly...oh well...keep it rocking dude!!
BRO! Almost 140k subscribers! I remember finding your old Nile covers back in the day around 2008ish I want to say. Can’t believe it’s been that long and how quickly you’ve grown since becoming active on the channel again with music. Hope to see you shoot up more and hear a whole album soon!
Hey Kevin! Great video! With so many guitars now, from so many different companies, different woods, neck shape, pick ups, etc, would be fun for you to do a video of what is a Kevin Frasard guitar! I mean, what wood you prefer on a guitar, what neck profile, gloss or satin body / neck, go to pick ups, fretboard, neck wood etc etc etc and why? Thanks! Keep it up bro!
Bro, I actually think the guitar sounds fucking brutal!!!!!!
As a matter of fact, I actually see Your point with the pickups on guitar though... You see, as much as I love playing, but I'm not really that big of a sound technician!
I'm usually just the "Work with whatever equipment You've got right now, and dial in the best sound possible!" kind of guy! Haha.
But You, however, is a Pro!
Keep it up, big man! 😉👍🤘🤘
A fellow gym bro who also loves guitars and fishing? Yep. Instant sub. 🤘 I'm in my early 40's and remember this guitar well. Steve's in Toronto was my version of Guitar Center, first place I was able to actually hold and play one.
Needs more gain!!!!! Wow bro.. make that happen, wicked 😎🤘🏻
it’s a good thing that guitar stayed intact, it sucks how much people suck at packaging guitars, but you should try out the SD Invaders they would rip in that guitar 🔥
I had a friend who had a guitar shipped, and it wasn’t a cheap guitar either, that had a warped neck so bad that he immediately had to find a replacement for it. Thank goodness it was a bolt on because two of mine have set necks so they’re a whole lot more expensive to replace. It’s the main reason I don’t have guitars shipped to me anymore.
Neck was probably warped before the guitar shipped. Don't be afraid of buying a guitar online from an experienced guitar shipper 😊
this is amazing , a gym buff, passionate about guitars and music. I'm not to fond about a tough guy doing his thing, but then he involves music, I'm, all ears and attention, respect man. I'm inspired.
I really can’t comprehend his muscle memory. They must remember all possible arpeggios in the universe.
I had both the black and granite Dinky Reverse Professional models. Bought them together in 1994. Played the hell out of them and wore the frets flat on both. Amazing guitars with great pickups too. 2 of the best guitars I have ever owned. Congrats Kevin. Sick axe! Reminds me of Kirk Hammett.
I still have the granite reverse to this day I bought new in 94. It's about to get a full overhaul with new electronics and updated bridge.
@@smyhk2883 Bet that will sound awesome when your done.
Man, i get crazy anxiety when having guitars shipped to me. I lost a 1 off dream machine because the seller just tossed it in a loose fitting hardcase. The headstock snapped right off.
Sick axe my dude!
Must have been a scarf joint
@@ericwright6672 nah. it was a jackson style headstock that broke in the middle of the headstock. Good scarf joints are super strong.
@@ericwright6672 correctly cut and glued scarf joints are stronger than one piece necks because the angle of the wood grains pressure point is eliminated. Drop a Gibson the headstock is breaking, drop an Epiphone and at worst you'll be dealing with a chip. Proper wood glue is stronger than wood itself.
Agreed...the trip the guitar makes in transit to you is the absolute toughest miles the thing will ever see...I’m shocked at how many actually make it in perfect condition!!!!
I just wanted to stop by and tell you i love your guitar playing, and you are an excellent guitar player.
Hey Kevin. I remember seeing your Through The Eyes video back in 2010 and sending it to all my friends. Been glad to see you keep going. Its like working out. Rep after rep. Good on ya.
I've been using the same X2n as my main pickup for over a decade now (It's been in 3 or 4 different guitars at this point) Super high-output pickup, I have to dial back the gain significantly on most amps when I plug it in.
This dude is just awesome. At first sight I thought he was Satan himself... but after watching the video your just a normal dude and somebody I would love to jam with. You rock dude
You thought he was Satan because hes buff?
Beautiful guitar brother I owned a soloist from that era and it was a great guitar. I'm glad that it showed up in one piece , I literally had anxiety when you opened up the case.✌
Had a good laugh with the camera falling! You made my day!
Kevin, that a true authentic "thank you" at the intro... It's rare to see, ROCK ON BRO!
I'll say it all day long. MIJ guitars nowadays are better than almost everything made here in the US. Quality control, fit and finish is just incredible. BTW, keep it up dude. Your attitude and the way you approach your videos is just fantastic.
Yeah they are. I have an Ibanez Prestige Team J-Craft RG2228 and it's built so damn nicely and solid. It's one hell of a guitar.
The reason USA made is turning into shit is because the people themselves are shit now. Too worried about LGBT
Appreciate you man, enjoy the vids 🤘🏻
Oh man, the packaging does F*%k all to protect the Case and guitar. Gday from NZ hope youre keeping your spirits up bro!
I just ended up getting an early 90’s Jackson Kelly professional on trade. Dude wanted to trade for a made in China BC Rich Mockingbird I had. Getting ready to drop Jeff Loomis Blackouts and put a Floyd 1000 on it since it had one of the Jackson branded trems
They also had made in germany schallers with the Jackson logo that are really great, it is the same one as in this video, I have one in a 93 dinky pro. Your kelly pro didn’t come with one of those?
This guitar is amazing, really charming, maybe with a change of pickups it makes it even better!!
That thing looks immaculate for an almost 30yr old guitar. I have a Fusion Pro I snagged from someone back in 2012 for a bit over 300 bucks and I still consider that the steal of the century for me. You're right when you say the craftsmanship is top notch. The guy also had a white Rhoads Pro but he wasn't willing to part with that... def a bucket list guitar for me too. Congratulations on the guitar!
What a beauty! Looking forward to hearing it after your setup 👍
The DiMarzio X2N is an absolute fire breathing monster. It's intense, and screams like a banshee, and has amazing sustain and coil split tones. Schuldiner used one in his Stealth.
Strongly agree, it’s my favourite 6-string bridge pickup for metal for the reasons you described. So fucking thicc, beefy, and molten hot. Michael Romeo of Symphony X also uses it, and it’s on his signature Caparison iirc
I grew up lusting after that exact guitar. I was 15 or 1 6 when that came out
*THANK GOD* it was ok, love the videos dude!
I got to see ad about Hedgehogs, kind of fitting!
Cheers dude!
Some guitars I recommend The ESP Jeff Hanneman 600 24 fret, Dean Kerry King Flying V, a late 1980's Jackson Randy Rhoads #1, and EMG's 81 & 85 active pick ups!
He prolly never heard of any of this
The EMG 81-85 is still my favorite combo, doesn’t matter which is in the bridge/neck. I’ve got the first gen splittable ones and the 81 in split mode is the best PUP for death metal that I’ve found.
The hardshell case is going to protect it almost 100% during shipping. A box and bubble wrap provides redundancy though.That said, still shitty of the sender to make zero effort in the handling department.
Yeah but the case will be scratched up
That Jackson looks like the Randy Rhoads you used to play in your old videos from 2006.
That Perverse Suffering cover is amazing!
I just subbed just cuz I remember all of your Through The Eyes of the Dead covers back in the day
LOL, he says "these pickups are shit, they're so weak."
I'm thinking "Jesus those things are WAY too hot for me." As I'm doing a setup on a 335 that I just replaced the Classic 57s with underwound PAFs. I think the neck was reading 7.2K before installing, and now is at....... 6.74K.
Playing these metal guitars, you'd probably swear they were out of phase or something.
I would love to get my hands on an older Jackson or Charvel with a maple fretboard, the pickings are thin though.
The last 100 watt tube amp I bought recently was shipped across the country by somebody who had no idea how to pack and ship it! I received a damage and it cost $300 to repair that fortunately the seller paid for. UPS will not pay out with their insurance if it's packed this poorly. Some people are complete morons.
I've owned a couple of professional series Jackson's. The Japanese craftsmanship is fantastic unfortunately these models are becoming hard to find and quite expensive.
Hey bro, have u been working out !!!!
Lmao. Thanks for the vids. Enjoy your time and effort
Such a cool guy. Thanks for all the great content. 🤟🏼
This guy looks like he could downpick fight fire with fire
Just be aware that one reason for the changeover from mother of pearl to pearloid inlays is due to the CITES treaty and its restrictions that make it illegal for a product containing shell inlays to be exported or imported in most countries. That guitar would be seized in customs in many countries and eventually destroyed. So....in part the decision to change the inlay material was made so that musicians would be able to take their guitars to other countries and not have them confiscated and destroyed.
That also applies to some wood types, too.
Stupid? Hell yes! Sad but true.
Not true at all MOP is not on the CITES list and can be imported and exported without issue. Large commercial quantities still have to be declared and may have to go to a specific port. Please visit the gov fish and wildlife page.
Pretty sure some clause freeing guitars came into CITIES a couple years back anyway (at least braindead stuff like buying USED guitars with rosewood or taking your own guitars abroad with you etc.), yeah it was shitty for a while
Congratulations man. What a Beautiful 90’s Jackson Flying V
What an awesome guitar Kevin! They sure don't make them like this anymore. Love these old made in Japan Jackson's. Glad you found one!
Man I had a PS4 with the hum single hum and the jackson branded floyd when I was like 14. Never should have sold it. Wasn't as nice as this rhoads but it was a nice guitar. I'd rather have the guitar than the $120 I got for it! Lol
Performer Series. Still see a lot of those around 20-25 years later.
@@JacksonAxe yeah man they were really well built.
My friend down the road from me had a gorgeous red one. Loved that guitar such a beauty!! Congrats man!!
"Play some slayer riffs if you guys don't mind, I DON"T MIND!"
You're too good for us, man. Hahahahaha
Great vid man! Brought me back to the old days when guitar center didn't suck and I learned a lot about Jackson guitars!
Thanks for the video on the on the MIJ Jackson makes me want it finally finish the one I got as a husk and been collecting parts for. I’m on it!
Love your straight death metal channel metal onward Kevin🤘🏼
Dude your a literal beast you got me into playing guitar and now I'm loving evey second of it.
You're awesome man keep up the great work I love watching your videos I get a lot of them I'm pretty much in the same guitar as you are so keep up the great work man love your videos take care and have a great day
Love watching you jam man, looks like you have a good time. Videos are sick! Thanks for doing them for people to see. Have a good day and if you ever write anything I can use it in a bike video and ride to it and tell more people about you. I’m not popular or famous but I have a small group of people that I’ve told and all love the jams. Have a good day bo and stay up 🤙
Beautiful piece there congrats!
Ayye good to see Jackson professional love! I love my Stealth, never have a felt a better neck!
Nice score! That's a beauty👍
oh my, with this physique I would never suspect you are guitarist. Time to pump iron and time to rock n roll. Impressive :)
I didn’t know there was other guitar players that liked body building out there until today.. subscribes instantly!
Something special about those Jackson necks !!!!! They just feels so right.....
Just literally found you. Love the guitar collection! Subscribed!! 🤘🏼
I've owned a few of these jackson professionals over the years. Awesome instruments. Congrats bud.
Talk about a wicked axe man I just stumbled on your channel gave it a like as well as a sub!
Damn.. the guy is HUGE! F.. well done dude! Healthy life style is the way to go man!
Great guitar player too.Good job man)
Awesome video, mate. Thanks.
Great idea Kevin to put that beast in b standard, can't wait to hear you play on it.✌️✌️
Ooooh sweet Jackson! 🤘
I just came across your channel and I’m a first time viewer of your content. I really enjoyed your video and what initially drew me in and made me watch this was that Jackson, I immediately knew what it was as I was scrolling and I have to say that the rhoads signature Jackson’s are/is my dream guitar… I have been playing for 20 plus years and never owned a Jackson only played them either at guitar center like you stated in the video or either someone else’s and just love the way that the neck of the guitar is flatter and they don’t have the ‘C’ shape like fenders and most other brands, basically everything you said is what I love about Jackson’s also the reverse headstock orientation. I used to own about 7 guitars at the height of my collection and sadly had to get rid of them at one time or another either to pay bills or when I became homeless back in 2009, and one of them happened to be a B. C. Rich Kerry king signature Flying V with the white tribal graphics which I believe I saw one on your wall. But, I just wanted to say that it seems like we have the same taste in guitars and I’m envious of your collection from what I saw in this video, and You/ your axes sound great and hopefully I will be there one day, I haven’t owned a guitar for almost a year now and with the pandemic and my shit job and on the verge of being in the streets again, currently, one can only hope to be where you are one day. Keep it up brother!!! I look forward to watching future videos of yours like this!
Dude, I’m station over here in Kuwait, and I love your videos!
Awesome guitar brother!
Congrats. I love my Japanese made Jacksons. Top quality!!!!!! Always looking for Japanese made ones
i love your channel man, have a great day
I've really grown to love this channel Kevin!!! 🤙🇺🇸🙏
