He tuned this thing without even touching the spring's in the back…????
Unless that's a wig…sweet F-n hair brother.
Thumbs up!
At 239 and knowing they are making a profit there is NO WAY it is even an average guitar it would be a piece of junk.
He is presenting this as a no gimmick presentation but we need to see everything about the setup.We also need to know if this was a special design for a sponsored video.I noticed he marked out literally everything on the box tag/info so he seems to be hiding more than just his name/address.
I don't see why anyone would create a fraud version of a 240 dollar guitar lol.Further more what could they copy that is not already low quality if anything they likely make the guitar better.
Here is what I want to see….serial numbers so people can trace those to see what is going on.Wood construction pickups/serial numbers etrc etc I just do NOT trust cotnent creators becuase every last oen of them are in this for money nothing else.
Like I was watching another dude and he says ….this is not sponsored even though they sent me this guitar..lmao that is EXACTLY what a sponsor is hence we cannot trust ANY YouTuber.
Crackle
Barn wood look
I love it that's what I'm talking about ????????!!
The guitar looks amazing and sounds good. But as soon as I see one of these cool guitars reviewed, I go to the website and none are available. I am assuming very limited production.
Sweet background P-38! Marge?
This guitar kills it
The spike in the middle of the headstock is a snark holder
Just got mine delivered today! Bought it a few days after this video was released, but now, the website has removed the listing for the guitar.
I had it set up in 10 minutes. The quality, for the most part is pretty high, I'm really liking it, and its cool looking.
One major flaw, The string tensioner on the headstock (the bar between the tuning pegs and the locking nut that the strings go under) Has the screws in bad spots.
Two strings run against the screws that hold the tensioner on, and one string goes at a fairly sharp angle from the screw to the peg.
It would be a deal breaker, and I'd send it back if it had a solid bridge.
Having the Floyd, I figure when the nuts locked, it has zero effect on anything so I'm keeping it.
Even with warts, this thing was a steal. $266 for guitar, tax, and shipping.
How's the action out of the box, any adjustments made to lower it or is it nice, low and even.
I never seen one for sale on the website that was reviewed.
I like it, it's hot and it sounds hot like 8 & 16, smok'n hot and price hot gonna be long gone its so HOT…..????????
????
Wow a brave man just locking down the floyd without doing a few dozen serious dive bombs and minor 3rd rises is pretty optimistic! LOL I was waiting for the first few floyd rides to see the tuning fall apart. Even high end axes with floyds need good stretching before locking 'em down.
I just got mine and it’s a pile of crap :(. Both e strings have a big gap in between the other string to the point where it’s almost off the side of the fretboard.
"Distinguish " = avoid legal action by Dean / Armadillo Corp. ????
Nothing more embarrasing than a flacid tremolo arm ????????????????get a german one, you heard it ladies!
It's a cool guitar, I might get one as I already have a couple of Firefly guitars
the problem with firefly is that outside the US they are impossible to find, I'm in France it's impossible to get one, not to mention that all the cool unofficial replicas they made are no longer used! a copy of Ml yes their news ml no
Great video man. I also want to say it was a pleasure meeting you at the Enforcer show at the Whiskey. ????The bands kicked @$$!!!
I will never buy anything from China ever again everything is fake. I am proud to say all my guitars are made right here in the great USA.
what a fantastic review! i really appreciate the unfiltered honesty. however, I have to say that the Floyd Rose system isn't for everyone. personally, i find it a bit too complicated for everyday playing, and sometimes simplicity wins when it comes to enjoying music.
Wish it was a hrdtail, id b all over it
That is an awesome looking guitar!
Prefer the regular guitar reviews, but cool guitar.
What is that lavalier mic, and how do you feel about it? It sounds good from here, but then, your voice could sound even better in person for all I know.
That is a killer LP STANDARD by firefly the white one with chrome hardware ❤
Excellent review! Intriguing guitar! Already subbed!!!!
I hope they switch over to those wilkinson locking bridges. I bought one off aliexpress and it's basically a gotoh 1996t clone. I just wish they didn't crimp the fine-tuner threads that prevents them from being removed completely. Some people might like that though. Only other gripe is that these bridges have really dull knife edges that could use a sharpening with some sandpaper wrapped around a screwdriver, and then have the plate and pins given an overnight in liquid nitrogen. In fact ALL trem plates and pins could start doing this straight out of the factory. Applied Science has a good video on cryo treating steel.
I am SOO HAPPY Firefly threw this dagger at Rita! She is reaping every penny she can from her ex’s legacy. Lame
Those cheap Floyd Rose bridges can be greatly improved with a Floyd Rose upgrade kit which includes better FL "silent " springs and all of the stainless steel replacement parts that make the bridge more equivalent to, (and perform like) a higher quality Floyd Rose 1000. The kit runs about $60 bucks. Or you could just spend about $50 bucks more than that and swap the entire bridge altogether with a Gotoh 1996t, which is every bit as good as an Original Floyd Rose in quality, materials and playability. Personally I like the changes to the body of this particular Dime-style guitar because it gives it it's own originally, plus I'm not a huge fan of exact clones of products created by other companies. After seeing this video I've decided that I'm actually going to purchase one in the next few days.
Hey Max, I would love to see you do a review on the new red and white bullseye les paul style guitar. Very curious about the pickups on this one ,and the back of the neck looks really playable.
love the video. thanks
Sounds awful, obviously plays meh, and doesnt stay in tune. But you little girls like the shape and the hype. Like beanie baby guitars.
Haha these comments are absurd.
Such a scam.
Copy Trogly with Metal, kool!!!????????
Mate cut the tuning out of the vid. Make your point its out n cut n move on. New strings derrrr. I didn't enjoy that n am clocking off. Tuning strings lol
