Magic Scratch Paper Finish!! || Vola Blaze X FR EAM Demo/Review
Serious question, though. Infinity War. Actually good, or just another super hero movie?
Delete this, spoilers are coming
Batman killed thanos at the end
Drop everything and see it
Jesu it's good.
I'm going Sunday. I'll make sure not to let you know after I see it :P
Actually Darkseid kills every Marvel heroes in the end, that was a weird plot choice
sometimes when I'm feeling self-destructive, I like to restring my Floyd-bridged guitar.
Sounds unhealthy lol
heh that's weak shit. I restring my ever tune
n w you need a therapist.
They’re such a pain in the ass haha!
Who lives in a pineapple under the sea? SIMON'S PET FISH!
Yay! Another Agufish video!
Damn. That sounds goooood. The finish is an added bonus, and it makes an awesome guitar.
your tracks have come a long way since you started Agu!
So,headstock of Caparison,carved top like a PRS Cu 24 /ESP Horizon,thin finish over ash,so you can see the grain, like a Mayones or Kiesel,set-through neckjoint like some Schecters.
Made in Japan,which means quality will be on the highest level,sadly the price is also very high.The good old days,when you could buy an Ibanez Fujigen,Jackson MIJ or ESP ''Standard''-Series,for a good price are long gone.
P.S. For that price point,it should had stainless steel frets as standard.
Check out FGN Guitars.
Esp Standard is now E-II (I hate the name, but it's the same line as ESP Std.)
Buy an FGN.
www.fgnguitars.com/collection/eg/JFL-FT-ASH-DE664-M.php Hunter should like this one ;)
Naww man he'll like this. i.imgur.com/TWuZ4qQ.jpg
Mine. ;)
I’m not generally a fan of Mesa Rectifier tones, but you did a great job dialing it in for this video. Good stuff. Been curious about these guitars.
Sounds great and looks cool
looks amazing
Vola Handmade Ceramic, Hunter.
Wicked guitar. Legendary playing. Good work man.
Never heard of Vola but I like the look of it. I like the binding and the black top with natural body
So I was wrong, it was a Vola
Still, JFC that finish is godly
Thanks for this review Hunter. You covered enough of my questions about this brand to make it a real contender for my next guitar purchase. I agree with every positive you mentioned. Would like to have the binding to be either Carbon Fiber, Abalone or Ivory/Off White/Cream colored. The white is kind of stark and clinical in my opinion. Would stop me from buying it though. Thanks again for the great review.
It doesn't surprise me one bit that the quality of this Japanese made guitar is top notch. I've always admired how their culture emphasizes precision and quality. They seem to really take pride in what ever it is they create, whether it's electronics, food or even guitar making. Great video and thanks for introducing those of us who had never heard of Vola to this really cool guitar.
That is just a fire breathing monster and is simply stunning to behold.
My nearly 3 year old loved the song, he was having a big ole dance to it.
Oohh boiii
Where are those spicy kickass metal riffs like in you older videos? I miss them so much. :'(
What's your opinion on Gretsch guitars? Especially the new G5220 Electromatic Jet Single Cut and the Streamliner series? They are around £500 ($700) and from my previous experiences give huge bang for the buck. Any chance of seeing some of these on the channel in the future? Keep Rocking \m/
Damn that thing is pretty. If I owned one though I'd be too afraid of damaging it and would rarely play it. Love the channel though. Any chance of you doing a review on a peavey bandit or maybe a valveking. I'd love to hear those amps recorded properly and I'd love to hear your take on them.
nice wood grain finish......different spin on that type of finish....sounds pretty good too....
Hey man great stuff ! Any chance of a baritone guitar review ? Greatings from spain
That's a very good looking guitar and I've been impressed with the Vola stuff I've seen. My only reservation is, will it hold value like some of the other big names if you ever have to sell it? I never sell my guitars, so that won't matter to me much, but this might be a hard sell versus a used PRS with a really sharp flamey top for me. Love your riffage man and appreciate what you do and the nice surprise of the "high priced" Vola being mixed in with the other mid-priced stuff you usually review. Rock on Hunter!
The Gotoh Floyd is the best Floyd out there period. The rounded bridge saddles make it so comfortable.
0:31 Damn dood, that was good!
PLEEEEAAASE, do a review on the Lee Malia RD, I want one because Gibson rds aren’t as affordable. No one else has any truly unbiased reviews!!!!
That guitar is really, really, really ridiculously good looking.
that headstock looks like a weapon!
a n a x e
Jackson has been doing that since the 80s
It looks similar to Caparison's headstock.
/didn't read that as Caprisun/
haha
Hi man,. This is a great video. I have a question, how do you get filming the guitar on the floor? Stabilizer for camera? Thanks and keep the good work. Greeting from Spain
I love your videos, I wish you would do one one synster gates signature guitar
it sounds like you've been listening to steal panther lately lmao. love the review. great song! might i suggest an ESP or LTD tony perry sig
really loved this demo, I was jamming hard
Damn that headstock looks lethal
Awesome video! I would buy this guitar except the thick c neck is a no go for me.
Hey Agufish, you should check out some of the Dean 79 series guitars.
You should do a review on balaguer guitars they are beautiful
Hey Agufish could you possibly review some more budget Epiphone guitars like the SG G-310, LP100 or the Les paul studio (standard version not the LT) alongside that awesome video man, the finish on the guitar is just beautiful and the price didnt really surprise me that much with how amazing it looks and sounds.
It would be epic if you got a Caparison for review!
Did you learn to do all these edits yourself? Stuff like the after effects. I'm really curious cuz they're really cool
Yep, UA-cam tutorials ftw! Although I do everything in Premiere. I really need to, but I haven't set aside the time to learn After Effects yet.
Reminds me of Mayones
Yes looks like a Setius with Duvell headstock
Killer review !!!! Can you please do the Glenn Tipton signature model from ESP ??? Please 🎸🎸🎸🎸🎸🎸🎸🎸
For the price t should have carbon reinforced neck and stainless frets. This is a $1500 axe at best. 🎵🎸
That's one thing these expensive boutique manufacturers haven't figured out: How to make the split-coil option not result in a massive drop in volume. Dean Zelinsky's got it nailed with his "Sidekick" pickups, but I haven't found any of the pricier brands figuring it out.
I gotta check them out! The only ones I’ve tried that don’t have the volume drop are the Fishman Fluence Single Widths. Killer pickups!
Agufish I recently purchased a La Voce, which is a pretty unique guitar. It has a Sidekick, a regular humbucker, a Ghost Pickup system, and plenty of options to blend the sounds. If you really want to try something different, opt for the Z-Glide neck. It's a thin guitar, single cut, chunky v-neck, and very, very different.
any plan on making tone tips video?
Vola like their cofefe too!!!
MAGA - Make Awesome Guitars Always!!
Great review, Hunter!
cool guitar! awesome looks, nice hardware and details but I'll get 2 of Schecter and eat some chicken than that.
You can never go wrong with MIJ guitars
Except Ibanez???? Lol actually the Ibanez stuff out of Japan is probably equally as good
Have you heard of a brand call Magneto ?
The quality is great
Saw one of these at Namm , looking baller, also, rip metallica735
Connor Gray gotta miss his memes
F
Quality wise, what are the key differences from Japanese ESP and Ibanez prestige model, except the neck
When's the Synyster Gates model coming?
Demo song sounds like the song "Voyager 9" by the band Cloudscape. Good band, check em out
That part at 2:23 reminds me of the intro for papercut by Linkin Park
Alright! Does any remember Stellar Mars?! They do single cuts that are >$300 and I can't find any good reviews on them
That "nebula burst" one looks like a Gloryhammer signature guitar lol
The hand made covfefe is strong with this one.
Please do eastman guitars. I have 2 and cannot put them down
The frets don't look rounded. I know they don't have to be to be good but it's seems odd for this price point. I could be wrong as there wasn't a real close up on them.
Just pointing that out as part of the problem with sharp frets isn't that they are made improperly it's that wood will shrink somewhat over time where metal bits like frets won't. This means even if a guitar has perfect frets when you first get it after a year or so they might start poking out and rounding them helps keep them from actually cutting you if this happens.
I actually like the super white binding. Also, if that neck is as fat as you're saying, I think I'm in love!
Dude, it's pretty thicc. Like that's the first thing that I heard people notice when they picked one up at NAMM, too!
Agufish
One of my favorite necks in my collection is an AllParts TMO-FAT. It's one whole inch thick from nut to heel. It's a baseball bat. I tend to err on the side of thicker for my necks. Ibanez Wizard necks make my handle cramp.
You should give them like a Doug score
Review the new charles caswell signature CC-7 berry burst legator guitar
lol I don't think they want to send me anything. they weren't happy with how I was honest about the couple sloppy parts on the Ninja (even though I told them the finish was a little rough in a few places before I made the video, and they didn't seem to mind)
How thick is that carved top?
Id buy this over a kiesel any day
you defenitely play like james hetfield while standing up
nice videos keep up
Can you try the epiphone zakk wylde les paul custom?
Looking at it, visually in the video, I guessed around $800-1000... I was wrong. Very wrong :)
Mick Thomson next????
Review the new black metal ltd eclipse it looks really amazing....
They're also really hard to find :(
I asked thomman and they told me the expect them to ship at 24/7....3 months...well, at least I have enough time to save...
The only thing that puts me off when it comes to guitars is the fret size, I can play on any radius, but fret size kills it for me I like to touch my fretboard ! Anything bigger than medium jumbo is a deal breaker for me. Like I've really tried to like esp guitars. Oh and I wish that guitar brands would give the fret size in the specs, too many brands omit this info like it isn't important...
8:45 sounds like Linkin Park - Papercut
For that price point, would rather just buy a custom guitar
My #1 issue with most guitars of this style (super strats), is the volume pot placement. I hate... HATE it that close to the bridge/pick up. Never bothered me for the longest time, but I changed the way I play about 10 years ago, and now it's always in my way. I see a beautiful (yet too pricey) guitar like that, and my first thought it, "Well, I've gotta pull that tone, and move the volume pot back." I blame moving from Strat style, to LP style, for my hatred of close positioned volume pot troubles. haha
Zed Chuva This isn't a superstrat
Yeah the volume knob placement is one of my biggest annoyances with so many guitars. The guitar can be godly, but if that volume knob is too close, it's an instant deal-breaker. This is actually perfect. It's not as close as you'd think, it didn't get in the way like the LTD H3 or Jim Root Tele for me!
I would say is heave "influenced" by a Mayones Regius Gothic
Please review the ibanez s521
You should check out halo guitars
Anyone else see a green pixel in the lower left center of this vid?
those divebombs were uhh..
what do you think of Boult guitars?
I think I need to Google them lol
www.boultguitars.co.uk
I agree with Simon. Way too expensive :-(
agufish is my favorite anime
simon is best girl. but hunter himself is also love :>
Hey! I Have a big muff tone wicker and am looking for a better distortion pedal, My overdrive is the new Fender Santa Ana, and im looking for something that can get dirty, T H I C C metal tones, and some rythym. Any suggestions? I was thinking the Metal Core, or the Metal Muff, thank you so much!!!
Griffin Lamon Go with the MXR EVH 5150 Overdrive pedal. It’s amazing! Has plenty of pedal settings so you can dial in the exact tone youve dreamed about, and it has a built-in noisegate. Its actually a distortion pedal, not an overdrive.
The Metal Core sounds great, but it’s kind of a pain in the ass to dial in the right tone. SUPER touchy on the settings.
If you’re choosing between the Metal Core or Metal Muff, go Metal Core for sure! The Metal Muff is not meant for the metalcore genre.
I own both the Metal Core and the 5150. The 5150 crushes the Metal Core, really. The Metal Core plus an overdrive gets it close, but the 5150 is like a distortion and overdrive in one. It will have you coring metal in NO time! 🙂
xXEmbrace the MetalXx thank you so much!!! Just ordered one!!
Griffin You’re welcome, my man! Youre going to LOVE it!
Keep in mind that when it comes to distortion, sometimes less is more. You may want to keep the gain setting at around 6.5 and 8. If youre in a band and playing to a crowd, this can make the difference between the crowd hearing everything youre throwing at them, and not hearing much but distorted fuzz.
Start at 12 oclock on each setting, and fine tune from there. Everyone’s settings are a bit different, as we all have our preferences and different gear. My 5150 overdrive settings are bass at 5, mid at 4, treble at 8, and gain at between 7.5 and 8.
Griffin Lamon Happy playing, guy!!! 🙂
Were you meant to say 'Wanking away on the wammy bar'?
I think you should play some slightly different types of sounds when trying out different guitars like a rock sound or heavy rock sound as a lot of the guitars start to sound the same with the same setup.
Sorry just a opinion.
It looks exactly like mayones satius
This is as beautiful as it is pricy.. :(
Wait until Harley Benton comes out with guitar that has that finish :D
I'll wait :)
But I don't think they'll make it. They don't even do "silverburst"... :(
I swear to god, this dude makes the dankest riffs.
Is it just me or would the track for this episode totally work in an episode of dragon ball z !?
So many guitar companies now, i wonder gibson goes bankrot these way
I see a floyd rose. Where are the dimebag squeals? It looks a shit of a lot like a mayones like I said on fb. and you say Mayo is more expensive? My setius custom order was 2170 euros, so that's not really more expensive if you're shopping for that money.
I was expecting a poor man's Caparison... NOT
Really nice, but I already have one floyd guitar. Does anyone want a floyd guitar?
I appreciate the drumpf joke, but I would assume the C in VHC stands for Ceramic?
lol yeah I asked them what it stood for and they just didn't respond, so I made something up on the spot. If I had to make a serious guess, I'd say Vola Hand-Wired Ceramic.
Agufish makes sense. Or Vola Humbucker Ceramic, if they do singles too
I was expecting maybe $1500 for something like that. $2450..... O_O
Metal Madness it's $2590! I expected around the $1500 mark too.
Apparently "a level above" $800-$1200 is more than double the price?
Looks like dunked Mayones Reguis
Thought Vola was made in italy lol.
I thought it was a Mayones at first...
Seems like a decent guitar, but the headstock looks like an elf shoe.
"It even has gotoh locking tuners" - shows huge picture of non-locking tuners
They are locking. They're the same Gotoh tuners as the one on my Eclipse. They just don't have the large thumb-screws on the back like other locking tuners
Agufish sooo, they are top-locking tuners? Because the strings are wound like 1.5-2 times around each tuner^^
Yeah, but they do that with Eclipses and stuff, too. it just looks better lol
kinda missing the face stubble hunter, your riffs are heavier with some man muff on your face like zakk wylde
It looks very Mayones-ish
