Thats my shirt

I see you list postion 6 as all 3 on in series....its actually bridge & middle in series @6:27 sorry if you've said in the comments below i looked down a bit but didn't see any correction...just for the sake of others considering what this thing does! Otherwise all good! 👌

grazie

Hey man, can you please tell me whether epiphone slash les paul has 18 or 24 splines pots as per that I can change the knobs

Yup, shameless plug: On a Squier Deluxe (ua-cam.com/video/Z2qIvwa5pLI/v-deo.htmlsi=qp_g4C8HrDM8VNpT). I'm loving it, it's almost like two guitars in one after the install, so sonically versatile!

I had an original cherry '62(the Marriot model) for years..had to let her go a while back...just got this new model in ebony..I'm so glad folk don't like it (there will be less jokers with 'em)...I absolutely adore it...I'm using it with Atomic Rooster and it's BRUTAL through my Supro Black Magik X...nerd p.s. I kept the original knobs from my '62 in a small box ..now they're on this...not a fan of those cream things.. I hear what folk say re LP junior..but this Epi is Badass the minute you strap it on...the shape and balance makes you stand proud.....whereas the LPJ is..well...kinda like a child size guitar...no offence like

Used to play a Melodymaker Gibson Explorer, after I bought the Epi version I loved the sound of it and has now become my main guitar

Nice review but I find it weird that during your "build a patch from scratch" section you are going to pick an amp sound without an IR and say it sounds good. It seems these amp models are designed to be used with an IR either the internal or an external. I would turn on an IR when selecting an amp. Those overdrive amps sounded like crap without an IR as any modeler would. Oh by the way did you see if it will play thru a BT speaker? That might be the use of the BT capability.

Excellent review. Two incredible guitars that sound very similar (coil split/taps aside). Epiphone are making some fantastic guitars nowadays. Thanks for a great comparison.

For some, this little box will be used primarily for practice or quick recording, (just getting an idea down). Putting it on your board for gigging, the presets would give you broader varieties vs. your pedal bank. For $60-$70, you can't complain.

Thanks man! can you please provide me the exact dimensions (Like width, height, depth) of the Studio version? There's nothing reliable on the official website nor Amazon, some say 32" height some 35" :(

Comparing the same riff with several guitars and showing the tone/volume settings separates this review from the others. I would like to hear the same riff on each of the NF3 pickup switch options to really hear the differences. You got a new subscriber.

That neck woukd fill me with pride.

I like this model better than the rerelease in 2019. I feel like the red should be a bit darker, maybe even with a bit of a burgundy look or a bit of purple. Mainly the inlay looks too bright. Still like it better than a lot of other models I have seen.

I believe it is a Ceruse finish. The process you describe is correct. The difference between it and smooth finishes is, I believe there is no grain filler used in the Voodoo. Grain filler usually fills all the grain areas and is clear so that it makes all coats after it smooth. Putting water on wood, like mist the wood down, will make the grain rise. I can't say for sure how they did it, but you can achieve similar results with a Ceruse finish. Also, you can say it is a Cerused guitar. Sandblasted ash bodies have the same appearance. It could be sandblasting, I'm not sure.

One thing for sure, nice relic job on the Voodoo.

Bought mine in 1976 off a frat brother for $80. All stock except the tuners had been switched out with some off an acoustic guitar. The originals were easily bent, so not surprising. It had seen some playing time, the neck pickup's top edge is rounded off. I put some Schallers, a brass nut and a Leo Quah bridge on it. Plenty of tones thru my Vibro Champ with an Orange Squeezer. Anyone who I ever let play it offered to buy it. Still have it all these decades later, and still no checking.

Ben, I think your reviews are one of the best, if not the best, on UA-cam! You do a thorough deep dive mentioning and pointing out things that I would never even considered. Your SG review has educated me so much that I know exactly what to look for when I move up to a Gibson. Thank you, Chris

there is not out of phase there is coil split - tap

in real the sound has a great bright clean tone you have not here because you need a good amp - tube preamp pedal

My opinion, extra $500 hurts. The present economy it’s no purchase for me

Just pick up one of these used. Only one question my headstock just reads relish. Nothing about trinity any thoughts? All wood… bolt on neck

1:38 sounds fantastic 😍 , but for the nostalgic pick up fans, Gibson should really give you a spare set of false teeth to complement the lovely 🌹 case.😅.

I guess it just one of those things. You love it - or you hate it. I love it. 1 pickup. Yeah. I love it.

4x the price for a difference my ears cannot discern? I'll take the Epi, thanks.

This is the most geekery, crazy, nit picking deep dive of any guitar review I’ve ever seen. I loved it. And it made me appreciate my 2004 SG Special so much more. But I couldn’t make to the end. Had to watch in two parts.

BTW the logo on their headstock is their old one.. It's there to highlight their 50th anniversary in the guitar manufacturing business.. I also like their new one better but for me their old logo doesn't make it look cheap especially when I look at the pickups and over all fit and finish but gives it a 70's type of vibe.. I have the progression Strat type which is a version earlier and this new Session T, which definitely looks and sounds as good if not better..

Is the maple roasted? I tried one recently and some of the frets look like there was a coat of lacquer on them. I’d also think over time the tinted laquor would wear off from your hands. Maybe rosewood version would be better?

This body makes me think they tried to make a les paul and then decided to make a telecaster. Finished and just cut the top part off to make a better belly cut. The part above the horn is a little weird looking.

On bass I kind of set a basic price range as being up to $150 is cheap range and squire makes one at this price range. Next level goes to about $400- $500 these are the entry level. Some come with ebony fretboards and reinforced necks. Then $500- $1000 is mid level in which most basses are of good quality and materials. Then $1000-$2000 is high level imports. You can get American Fenders in this range, but that is about it. At $1000 you can start seeing stainless steel frets and EMGs. Guitars seem to follow a similar cost structure, although guitar seems to be cheaper it might run like up to $150 basic, $150-$400 entry level, $400-$800 mid level, $800- $1200 high level, and $1200- $2000 top of the line imports and American made.

Purpose it could serve is you could swap pickups for each gig, like a 50's rock night you use whichever sounds best, then swap for country night, then swap for metal night. Not that it is common just seems the most applicable way to use the guitar. If you are able to set up more pickups to be used so you could set up some humbuckers, P90s, and single coils then swap each out and compare the sound. Overall, it is a cool looking cheap guitar. If you are able to set up your own pickups to use it will be a cool way to test out pickups.

Dude, I am about 3:20 into this video and it sounds like this guitar was made with cheap parts. Cheap parts = needing repair or replacement often.

I was looking to get studio and I was thinking to get older model but after watching your video, Im more into 2024 model. Lets see what I get.

I'll stick with my "budget" Les Paul jr. 😉 Nice sound/tone though. Got that Gibson sustain. Is that a Gibson P90 or Epiphone?

Hi there, Can I use this cv out entrance with my zoom A1X Four acoustic FX Pedal, to increase sound effects? Thanks in advance and great video!

Great video. I'll save a lot of time setting it up

I’ve been an SG guy since I was a kid and saved up my snow shoveling moneys back around 79’ or 1980. I took a ride on the NYC subway to what was then called ‘Music Row’ and walked into Manny’s Music and purchased a beautiful white SG ( it had the small guard like yours and the input jack was on the side of it. ) Sadly I sold it in the mid 80’s to purchase a car. Currently I own 3 SG’s and I love all three of them, none are Custom Shop… maybe one day I will but the cost difference has stopped me from doing it already, obviously lol. The Standard USA models I own play phenomenally with very low action and it’s just tough to justify the up charge on over to a CS, not that I’m saying it’s not a good choice, the deep red finish on the CS models are beautiful, I believe it’s the aniline red which makes the obvious difference. Great video man, I just subbed your channel, thanks for sharing this in depth breakdown 🤙

This guitar sounds so awful. But the orange one looks so good. I gotta have one. But I gotta figure out how to get single coils in it.

22 nF not 22uF. Sorry OCD works at full speed.

It’s a really cool guitar and it sounds fantastic. Would I buy one? Hmmmm. I’d say I’d get a LPJ instead. The Chin-Epi version looks like a toy!

As someone who’s loved vintage Epiphones since they were new guitars, I love the idea of doing USA made Epiphone vintage reissues. That said, this one struck me as an odd choice. Not the Coronet per se, but the late 50s Coronet predates the key changes that made the model a lot cooler for most of us. I would have far rather they’d reissued a 60s version with the asymmetrical body and batwing headstock. I think, even at this price, that version would sell way better. I’d love to buy one to replace the one stolen back in the early 70s. The late 50s models may be historically significant, but the 60s models are the more attractive evolution of the design.

Bluetooth would allow you to have a song from your phone playing on the speaker and you can play along with it.

I want to like Godin but everyone I've played felt stiff, sterile and cheap.

Nice in depth review (and, as you say, there’s currently very little out there on this model). I bought this model a month or two ago…so light, comfortable, good looking and great sounding…I play it ALL the time. Extremely fun guitar to just grab and play, and available at an attractive price.

Not mini humbuckers. Gibson Firebird pickups. Rail pickups.

Great quality video man! Thank you 👍🏻

Worth it!

Your demo videos are great. However, if you decide to try and change it up you could do a deep dive and then a sound demo and then link them. They say the magic length is 10 mins. As far as explanation and everything your channel is one of the best.

My guess as to what "made the Fender way" means, I think it means made using same kind of magnet and number of winds to try and replicate the pickup as close as possible.

The Kanyon burst looks really good if it had a dark fretboard. Still the body looks cool as ice.
