There is absolutely nothing wrong with ceramic pickups. They sound warmer than alnico but if you turn amp treble up you can get the alnico sound. Great review.
I’m not a great guitarist, but I think it sounds nice, and will look great on the wall.
you are a great player. get well soon
These st style guitars sound amazing. The sound sells it for me.
Would a set of Fender replacement PUp's fit???
It doesn’t need a setup?
If you could fit a mexican fender strat or allparts neck on that body, it would be perfect. Hopefully someone who has this guitar can take some measurements of the neck pocket.
Hey brother, I want to thank you for all the effort you're putting into this I appreciate it pushing through how difficult it must be to produce content for all of us out here to watch. Thank you. Keep your eyes fixed upward through the storm. I just ordered my first kgd. I'm hoping that the quality runs equal across the board with their products. I ordered their single cut Les Paul style but I've not seen for sale anywhere other than one website. Excited to get it. It's a little more heavily relic than I would like it to be, but should be cool. Thanks!
I appreciate your review and the details that you give. I have actual vintage guitars both Fender and Gibson and think that for someone wanting to get into guitar that this is a super guitar and deal. Keep up the reviews!!! Thanks
Absolutely amazing sound! What amp are you using? I wish you a speedy recovery man.
I have the telecaster relic kdg and it’s amazing.
Great tone sir. That is a sweet guitar. How do you get your chrystal clear strat tone? What are you using?
Wish you good health and strong quick recover.
Love your content. Kinda curious about the new Aria Pro guitars. I have an old one from the 70s. Would like to see if they are any value. Keep up the great work.
I’m not a fan of relics but it looks ok, the non relic version is $&0 less.
I like a relic guitar because if u bump it on something it doesn't hurt a perfect paint job. Also who wants to wait for a guitar to relic naturally? Not me anyway but to each their own I guess.
I agree the relic looks good
man i love this guitar..im about to get it…and is that a mint green pickguard? woa!
Hey man, I really like your playing! This was a great review, and it makes me want to try one of these… Sometimes I get these types of relics and just disassemble them and refinish the body with something I like better than the "out of the box relic job." I like to experiment with different ideas on the relic theme, but not what is typically offered in these… sometimes I rewire them too… thanks for the video!
Really nice guitar
I heard your mention of the ‘spoke wheel’ truss rod, does it have a dual action?
Thanks for the great review, hoping your recovery continues to go well. ????????????
Does anybody know if it takes a full block trem?
