Damn you Cooper and your big beautiful braids!!
Yo me personally a gig bag isn’t a selling point. I buy a hard shell case regardless
Yamaha AC3R is in the conversation and can easily be purchased new for $900 or below. Sounds as good as any Taylor I’ve owned including my 814CE and 714CE.
One word- Yamaha……full stop.
Everyone who has ever owned a Seagull guitar is shaking their heads right now because you didn't even make a mention of them.
Why does the neck of the gs mini look so ugly?
What are your thoughts on the Martin D-10?
Fender Hellcat…. you missed Great Guitar for the Price
Epiphone 1957 sj 200,is it a good guitar for the money?
Great job????thanks????
kinda late to the party … but I need to know your views about Martin LX1e?
Thanks heaps for the info
Fueled by your hatred!! I love it, keep on keeping on Cooper!
Great video!
I appreciate the video man. i been trying to do some research and this helped me
How does the Yamaha CSF3M stack up with the GS Mini?
i got a fsx3 new from alamo the top was bowed and played a lot they wouldnt take it back do not buy from them
I want to be Cooper when I grow up. He is beyond groovy!
I personally would love a video on smaller guitars fit for someone who is aging and hasn’t the same grip strength anymore. A list of guitars that are easy players and easy to carry around.
Awesome selection! What are your thoughts on the Eastman guitars?
Nice review, but too many adds.
Thanks for putting this together. Very, very helpful for a beginner like myself.
Love your channel and your videos. Thanks for great knowledge.
Some sick minds just like to "throw shade" on others. l appreciate the explanations and descriptions of guitars from both Cooper and Chris. If you are guitar junkie like me, you have to follow these guys.
Thanks! Always useful information
Speaking as a bald headed guy, I would kill to have hair like yours.
Thank you.
I have a very unique situation. I lost my natural hearing. I have all middle ear prosthesis. I used to whale in the 80's but haven't played in over 20 years. Something is calling me back . I need an acoustic that I can feel, not hear some distinct difference from some type of wood to the next. Is there any such thing as a Bluetooth that can be tied into my hearing devices?
Excellent review Cooper. First time I've come across your channel. Very thorough, great work. So sorry that you are hearing BS about your appearance or speach, you deserve better. Don't let asshats get you down! Now that I've found your site, looking forward to more reviews! Thanks!
Just seeing this video. Excellent. A question about the Martin ooo10e. I'm a left handed player. Live in a rural area with few guitar shops around. Rarely any left handed, so playing before buying is not possible. I have an Eastman E1OM. How in the playability, build quality and sound of the Martin compared to my guitar? Thanks if you have the time to answer. Again nice video. Take care.
What about alvarez
Well i think you look great ❤️
i am glad you featured the academy 12. i have it with electronics. I like it more than any GS mini i have ever had. It sounds great, is so comfortable, and I find the fretboard easier than a GS mini. I am 74, my fingers are somewhat stiff, and i’m a small woman – only 5’0”. Not a beginner. By the way I love your videos .
A friend of mine just got a Zaar guitar and he can’t stop talking about it. Either one of you guys ever got your hands on one of those? If so what are your thoughts?
I'll never understand folks that push the thought/concept of "this is for somebody that's got something a little nicer, they want something to bring around to gigs, maybe let other people play it" when talking about budget guitars. Not only is this exceedingly lazy as far as finding an avenue to spark interest for sale but it's kind of insulting to folks that only have that price range in their budget. It's gross.
The explanation for the academy was so garbage.
I am fueled by your hatred that's my vibe homie ????
Enjoy your videos. Thanks for posting!
Martin 000RS1 vs 000 r10 Is it the same or diffrent?
