Custom Guitar Amp For A Very Sick Little Girl
Great video. One of these is for sale locally. Definitely have to check it out. It doesn't have the extender, though. But not fussed about that.
Do you know if Mr. Kahler misspoke when he said Fender was using the Steeler 10-15 years ago, or is there a line of guitars out there with this trem that was built in the 00s?
Can we get an update on the giveaway??
Is a $150 upgrade, not cheap, but do the job
Danelecto did it better. And first.
nobody said they didn't. So congratulations on being the 50th person to think they were dropping knowledge.
Using Kahler on a left handed Aira Pro II XL series since early 90s. I suspect it was choosen due to how easy it was to add the extra hole for the trem on the opposite side, in a left handed setup.
@@duncanandrews6727 all Kahler cam bridges can be upgraded to that ambidextrous cam if it isn’t there to begin with.
Awesome explanation that you provided, I'm new at how to learn the push pull guitar knobs 🎸😎.
@@ArturoGarcia-yq9ut you should check this out then and you’ll be way ahead of everyone else. Strandberg Boden Blasphemy! (With the help of Seymour Duncan and Freeway Switch) ua-cam.com/video/C1Zg7A8PgyQ/v-deo.html
Seen a few other comments suggesting blue tack but could you mount a cork board or similar to stick them? Honestly the magnetic paint and magnets idea is really cool too.
Sorry if this sounds like a dumb question, but are you guys marketing the Steeler as the most advanced tremolo ever made, or the most advanced “Strat style” bridge ever made? You guys got a lot of different bridges on the website and when I build my guitar I want the most advanced bridge, I’m not worried about the routing shape since I’m still picking the bridge I want to put in it. I DO know I want a Kahler but the options are a little tricky to grasp 😅
Get a Steeler Professional with the auto-latch option. You will tell everyone who doesn't play one they have the second best bridge. So yeah, it is the best 6 string fulcrum bridge made to date made 100% in the United States with the most cutting edge technology available.
Is the Stingray 5 bass equipped with a dual-action truss rod?
@@Kai-Riff no idea, never worked on one. That information should be available on their website. Dual action truss rods are cheap and plentiful though. If they don’t put one in there should be a very good reason for that.
U talked more than you showed the guitar and case 😑
You have no videos on your channel. How long have you lived in a glass house?
This is one of my favorite vintage bridges ever, so cool to see it's being reissued
The new ones are even better
evh
That is not one of the choices
with the early kahlers, i had to use R.P.S. slinky strings, otherwise the ball of the strings would always break off
@Rexlab Do you do the actual installation for clients?
Every single guitar sounded different to me, with the second parts caster and the Ibanez sounding clearly better to me.
@@ro307805 if you saw the entire thing you know at the end I said this test won’t change anyone’s opinion.
@@REXYLAB true, as clearly by listening most were different
Hello, could you tell me if the tension is adjusteble on A Wonderbar, I have one on an Hamer guitar who works soft and wonderful. And i have one on an EVH that is so hard, to hard. I can´t find anywear to adjust that.?
@@ConnyMartinsson-p5r you have Washburn wonderbars on those guitars? Those are odd combinations. Did you have them made like that?
I-been-had , my favorite brand!
@@rustyduke7254 doesn’t sound like it.
its old, what do you entitled people expect hahahahaha... and youre making it sound like glueing that pickup was a 500 dollar job. . the doood should have taken it apart to show it was plywood, but that dont mean anything to the sound or even quality. cause its not going to break. and les pauls have a sheet of plastic, aka glue holding the top on, therefore, if the wood did make a difference in sound, the glue would stop the vibrations. and youre using distortion to cover the sound anyway. good job wannabe mark gross Im glad you got ripped off.. biden loves you
Sweet! I own #7. Steve just re-signed it (a third time!) for me. lol. This time that signature isn’t going anywhere, my guitar repair guy put a clear covering over it. Congrats again on a great guitar.
“Like this one, that looks an awful lot like…NOTHING” 😂 bravo
lol when you need a semi to move your gear. You happily know your a guitar nerd.
@@bigmikeyz0071 I am the nerdiest if guitar nerds!
“It stings the nostrils “… “Sixty percent of the time it works every time “
@@profoundsinger truer words have never been spoken!
It looks stupid azphuk. Sorry. A billion guitars with this bridge are strung properly with no issues. The top wrap is like scalloping. Just a fad.
I've been playing guitar as a hobby for 50 years but I'm not a gear head and have no experience playing with tremolo bridges. You'll laugh at me, but back in the 1990s I bought a used guitar with a Kahler 2300 bridge on it, but it was missing the tremolo arm and I didn't realize that it WAS a tremolo bridge. I just always thought it was a really cool bridge with adjustments for setting the intonation, string height, and spacing etc. for each string individually. And I loved the little fine tuning knobs feature. Recently, one of the bridge's string hooks broke so I started Googling to see if I could find a replacement bridge. I was shocked to find out they cost more than what I had paid for the guitar itself! And that's when I finally discovered that it was a tremolo bridge. And I also started learning more about Kahler bridges, specifically. Long story short, after finding someone who could fix my broken bridge, and after getting a tremolo arm for it, I am now, after 50 years, finally starting to incorporate the use of a "whammy bar" in my guitar playing, and having fun with it. And now, after seeing this interview with Mr. Kahler, I am even more appreciative of his product. Well done, Sir!
Hey not weird but where are u located ?
@@iandarch92 Las Vegas
My dads first guitar was a 65 fender mustang and it came with a case with an amp built in from Sears back in the 60’s. Pretty sure it was a silvertone case
@@detroitdabber313 yep, that would be silvertone.
Wow a million dollars worth of Kahlers!
@@Emily-le3xo 2.5 million
The first few sentences of this video I thought maybe I was in the red light district in San Francisco
@@janiterinadrum1627 you mean the Castro district? If you’re going for a sick burn the reference is everything.
Can also use it on the back of a forklift as a counterweight.
I had a Peavey T-15 and i opted for a real amp rather than the one in the case. It had the same humbuckers with the blade and mine had a fixed bridge. It was a good beginner guitar.
@@bobrush4217 this belongs to Kahler International. It was gotten to help develop the flyer.
Looks heavy 🤷
@@Aaron-cy7oo no heavier than a Floyd Rose.
Very cool, Eddie. You've said the Steeler is a drop in for Floyds. Does that include posts and the nut? Looks like the nut may have a different screw location. Thanks!
@@Scott__C the locking nut has the same screw pattern. The Steeler is a direct drop in for a Floyd Rose. The studs must be changed. You have to use Kahler bushing, but… if you have Ibanez or gotoh bushings we have special studs for those bushings because they are so huge.
@@REXYLAB Thanks, Eddie!
Bonjour ,je suis en France 😊 J ai une charvel model 4 1986 . Je n arrive pas à commander des pièces de rechange pour kahler 2300 . Pourriez-vous me donner une adresse ??? Whammy parts ,ne répond pas à mes emails et les pièces sont en rupture depuis très longtemps 🤔🤔🤔 Pourriez-vous m indiquer une adresse pour commander Merci 😊
You cant stop a peavey bro
90s and earlier peavy, current day peavey is a shadow of what it was.
Would you soak tuners in naptha combo? Got some Gotoh tuners on an old ibanez that still work great but are funky and rusty looking.
I wouldn't because any lubrication internally would be compromised. what color are your tuners? gold is a lost cause, black is iffy, chrome has possibilities.
@@REXYLAB These are black, so external naptha maybe?
I'm close behind at 114...!😁 🎸
How did you stumble on all of this gear
Who does all that gear belong to?
It belongs to me, Eddie Curnan.
Blue is superior
What are the original potentiometer specs? I know one of them works as a mid boost. I also found one that needs some TLC to be back to its former glory 😅
@@marziorojas here is the thing hidden from almost everyone, squirt it with some deoxit D5 and those electronics will come right back to life 99% of the time. Dioxit is really cheap and it works! Not using it is like getting new carpet instead of using a vacuum cleaner. I have unfrozen electronics by using it. Watch this. I Got This '86 Ibanez PL1770 Cheap... Because It Was Dirty! ua-cam.com/video/i-W_Xk9XOoE/v-deo.html
@@REXYLAB I did. Actually the luthier at my local guitar store did it right in front of my eyes. Once they returned the guitar to me and took it home it locked in again… this time I went ahead and did it myself… the pot won’t budge 😭
That's not a new idea. Silverstone (Sears) in the 60's had the same thing. Under $100 new (then). Found one in a pawn shop for over $300 recently. Wish I'd seen the vintage market coming.
@@MartyMorris-gq2nx nobody said silvertone didn’t do it first.
Man! That mistake with the saddles was NOTHING. You deserve a medal for having the courage to take that thing apart. Those bridge systems are amazing. I had two Ex-Factors. Almost never went out of tune. Probably the best bass ever made. And Philip Kubicki was such a nice guy. RIP. I wasn’t sure if I wanted a blue one because I didn’t know if the shade on the laptop was true to the shade in person, so Phil took a flake of paint from the control cavity and Fed-Exed it to me in the UK, completely of his own volition. Thanks for sharing. It was really interesting to see the workings.
This really is probably my favorite bass ever. I can’t believe how amazing it is in every level.
@@REXYLAB I wholeheartedly agree. Until you play one, you won’t understand.
But does ot cost less than a normal kahler?
No, it’s the same price.
I have been looking for a more detailed explanation of the bridge. I have 2 of the boden essentials and I love them to death however I think the bridge (although the design is well thought out), I don't think it is a great execution. I am thinking of getting a q52 because for the most part Ibanez does well with quality bridges. I will never understand why people need a sound demo, it will not sound that way when you get it home in your environment. Furthermore, if you don't like the style of the player than it might not inspire you to buy said product. Countless times gear has sounded great or bad in the store and was the opposite once I got it to where it would be used.
Yeah, sound demos are pretty useless. I agree with you completely. I actually think the Strandberg bridge (rails actually) are most likely more durable than what is on the Ibanez. I could be wrong but that is the impression I get.
@@REXYLAB I found a used but mint q52 in blue for $699. It will be arriving this week, curious to do my own shootout. But regardless thanks for the info.
i had 1 like 10 years ago.. it got stolen...
That sucks! I only had one instrument stolen and I got it back but it was a terrible experience and not near as cool as a LNG. When I was little my bike was stolen and even though I knew who did it and the police went there with us they lied and I never got my bike back. That’s the closest I can come to imagining what it must have felt like to have such an awesome guitar stolen.
That neck plate is even pristine!
Fuck yeah it is!
Somehow this bass reminds me of a Wal bass.. If you took off the pickguard and if it had a 2+2 headstock, you can almost see a Wal copy.. in terms of tone, maybe not like a Wal..?
Both are great and I have lots of experience with both so I can tell you with certainty they are nothing alike. But, they are both great!
If you wanted the center switch position to be the outer coils on each pickup would you just swap the two start wires for each pickup?
Great question, and like all great questions it isn’t that simple. You have to ground out the series link and that would be different for the outer coil so you would need to rework the entire wiring diagram. This is an interesting idea though. I’ll give it some thought and perhaps do it in the future.
That is the ugliest,cheapest,tacky looking thing ever.
