The newly updated Fesley FDK-800 is making bold claims as a feature-packed guitar for a budget-friendly price. But does it truly live up to the hype? In this video, we take an in-depth look at everything this guitar offers; its overall build quality, sound versatility, and feature set.

Join me as I dive into all the details of the newly updated FDK-800s. I do an extensive tone test, and then I’l talk about the Pros and Cons.

I’ll also look at the Fesley Mini Portable Guitar Amp, sound test it and talk about what I like and don’t like about it.

  • By far the best review I’ve seen of this guitar. I had this very same model and I was pleasantly surprised on the quality of it. I’ve since bought a couple other Fesley guitars and I play those out live when I don’t feel like risking bringing out some of my far more expensive guitars. Great video man!????????

  • @CompanyGripGuitar I just discovered your channel (subscribed) and really like the way you do the sound tests with the split screen. I believe you try really hard to do a true unbiased comparison when doing A/B's…like in your Billie Joe Armstrong models video. I'd like to see you borrow both a Fender Strat and the Squier Strat that Amazon had on sale for $99 on Black Friday & "blind A/B" them to see if I can pick them out. Detail how much setup work you had to do to the $99 guitar to make it acceptable for someone just starting on guitar. Keep up the great work!

  • I thought it was hilarious you describing your reaction to dings on your guitars. Imagine having my US Fender Tele that was pristine (wish I could say that about my Gibson) and watching the beautiful Penny finish get little bliaters for no reason and then seeing the paint fall like snow. To reveal a silver and maple looking ash borer pattern underneath.

  • Looks and sounds pretty good for a $250 guitar. I wish they had things like this when I was first learning. Nice review.
