I'm sorry this video took so long to put out from when I did the unboxing, but I gotta say I'm damn proud of it, along with that new Shadowless song and mix! Hope you guys enjoy it too! Please don't forget to like the video if you did, as it really does help out this channel
GarrettJPeters thanks for pointing out the coil split thing I’ve been looking at these guitars but never read that anywhere! Awesome tool!
@@00Dusty Yea man, I was stoked when he told me that and figured others had to know :)
Love the song, love the guitar, love your hair. Not in that order.
Hahah thank you my dude!
Yes in that order
@@distructor5431 I'll take it :D
@@TIGERGUTS That's actually how we met! Garrett asked me to pass the soap, the rest is history.
3:00 dude that was freaking sweet!!! Your solo ideas are so killer!
Thanks man :D
I'm surprised Ola hasn't commented yet.
They had a fight
@@fatherlandchild2780 when and why?
I love how you mentioned that they are making the frets stainless steel, this is what solidified my decision to check out a guitar that is more powerful than the sun. Thank you Garrett Peters and Solar Guitars!
Hahah, no problem dude :D
Man that solo had a little bit of everything really good work
Thanks bud :D
Uhh you killed it with this review.
This is how guitar reviews should be made! 🤘
Ahh thanks man I really appreciate that :)
This song is awesome!!! It feels really original, especially with these cool accents/rythm changes. Waiting for the album!!!
Thing about these guitars that intrigues me is how affordable they are with stainless steel frets an evertune/floyd 1000 series AND with a nice maple top. Going to have to check them out at some point.
Just got the 1.6PP, loving it.
Duuuude that purple is soooooo nice! My student just got one and I'm jelly Aye eff
@@GarrettJPeters Indeed!
That’s what I wanted to see someone who could demo one of these well
I'm definitely interested in checking this brand out. There seems to be some really wise choices in designing these, and I'm quite impressed with what I've seen.
Killer axe and awesome playing man! 😉👍
Thanks Paul! I appreciate it :)
Great track and sweet guitar, the absence of any clutter on your desk made the track more menacing.
Hahah thanks man! It definitely looks nothing like that right now XD
You're a great player and gear reviewer Garrett. I'm always impressed with your work.
Ahh man, I appreciate that Erik! I love your playing as well!
Amazing guitar, awesome playing, beautiful hair! Great job, man, and congrats on the axe. I love that finish, and I have my eye on the s1-6pb-27 amongst other models. It´s very hard to chose one single Solar!! Keep on!
Thanks man! I have my eye on like 4 of them as well XD
Me: I can't make a good song
Garret: Hey, i'll make a fucking awesome song for a review
That solo was sweet. 👌
Thanks man :D
Your little preview got me Garrett😉 Beautiful axe and this song is absolutely stunning 💙
Love the depth of the sound. Cool.
Karen Meer thanks Karen 🙂🤘🏻
Excellent track and blue finish 💙 🤘🎸
Hey Garrett, great video!
You should check this video that Fluff did about cheap upgrades for your guitar - he also talks on this video about how you can fix the sticky neck problem.
Happy to see that you are making more videos again!
That was a pretty badass shred at the beginning nice Job!
Excellent playing man
Garrett I’m so so so glad you did another vid on that beauty!! Always deserves its moment in the limelight. That being said I’m still so friggin jelly at how blue yours is compared to my aquaish quilt makes me want to cry hahaha! What number of 50 is that one btw??
Thanks my dude! I definitely going to do more video with this one! And it's number 28 :)
Awesome as always bro, love the demo song here 🤘🤘🤘!!!
I've watch Ola video when he came to the Solar guitar factory in my country, weird things is...so far I never found this Solar guitar in any musical store near my town.
L Y not sure if they are sold in stores
Grateful to find this video. I found every spec in this guitar perfect but I was wondering about the neck thickness because I own an Ibanez RG but even when I like to shred (or try to lol) I don't like the really thin necks. I prefer my Rhoad's neck which is quite thicker but not as much as a Gibson as you said. So I think the S1.6 will be my next guitar, no doubt it will be the perfect guitar for me :)
Thank you for the review!
Yeah, same here I have an Ibanez RG and these Solar guitars seem absolutely amazing... I need to check out what these things run price wise
That finish is gorgeous! So pity it's not available anymore. Got me A2. 6C instead and I'm more than satisfied.
Great demo anyway!
Awesome! And yea man, all the models and finishes look so good !
Very clear and informative review, thank you very much!
Also, the track is awesome
Thank you so much Ali, I'm glad you liked it :)
Great tune, great playing and great demo and review!
Good song, man. I'm buying a Solar tomorrow. Can't wait!
Great video-amazing guitar!
Great Playing, Great Tone, Great Mix. sounds Killer! and Excellent Chops!
Killer riffs bro! Thanks for the run down video I'm looking to get a new guitar soon and its between another schecter because that's been my go to axe for a while now. I've been looking at Legatoer guitars and or the Solar guitars. I'm not sure what modle but I'm limited because I'm a lefthanded guitarist! But yeah the Solars are sweet AF and I'm really digging what Ola is doing. I'm hoping more options will be available when I finally pull the trigger on my next guitar! Thanks again
Dude, for sure! :)
Awesome song dude!!!
Thanks my dude :D
Next: Abasi Concept guitar. Wanna hear your side of playing on it
Loved the song!
Thanks :)
Love your song you wrote I want to learn more of that style of playing my first time here just found your site great review thanks
wow dude, just found your channel, great playing and review! Subscribing for sure
I appreciate that bud!
Yo that demo sounded great. It reminded me of All That Remains
Some lovely old in flames sounding stuff in there
What is that string dampener?
I love your melodies and leads, homie. Great playing. Also, the riff at 1:06 made me think of Darkest Hour and At the Gates, two incredibly sick bands. Is this song from a new album of yours?
So... it's not a solar powered guitar then?!. 😲
XD
Fantastic, original, love the phrasing!👍
That axe is so beautiful !!!
As always sick playing man ! Love this guitar, but I hope they would make a carved top with the same specks :)
Great track, dude. Really melodeathy. Loved it.
Thanks man! Melodeathy is what I go for :)
Ola Englund is love. Ola Englund is life.
tape both ends of your neck and use a red 3m scratch pad to buff down the finish. won't hurt the guitar but, will add 10 times the speed.
Great playing!
Wow, that solo between 3:00 and 3:30 was great. Is this a real song? I mean, that I can listen to on Spotify?
Hey thank you! And yes you can :) open.spotify.com/artist/3b8isMbfIWRaySkX6CokkW?si=h7dEGA1sQT6BoFQITAmjyg
Nice!
Are you a fan of Gojira? I just noticed some hints of them in some parts of your song. Also, Andy James shows how you can have Evertune, and still bend strings, with the magic of it always going back in tune.
I just started getting into Gojira, they're awesome!
@@GarrettJPeters Awesome dude. Keep up the good work, loved the song BTW!
New to the chanel..like what i see so far bro..🤘
I can't decide between the V2.6C or the E2.6C both are great guitars.
Badass song dude!
Tuning guitars can really kill the vibe sometimes too. I like having an idea, just picking it up and going. I'm beyond sold on evertune
after watching this, I want one now! NGD in the not too distant future?
That riff around 1:15 1:20 is very amon amarth sounding haha
I just want you to know, I'm stealing all those licks in the solos
Oisin McPhillips do it! 😛🤘🏻
Over a year waiting for this 😂🤟🏼
Lol sorry, Hope it was somewhat worth the wait :D
GarrettJPeters Always a pleasure bro! Keep it up!
The video in general is excellent, but I honestly think that if you want to show how an instrument sounds, you should try start with the clean and most natural sound of the instrument first, then increase the gain gradually to hear how it responds and so on..
If the original porpouse if this video was show the final sound this guitar can give, then it´s completely mindblowing!
Does a locking tuner with a floyd rose really matter? I know it makes string changes faster, but the floyd locks them in
I want a Solar so bad....
great review thank you.
Told you evertune was nice! I never want to go back. Screw the Floyd and if I can be in tune all the time, yeah I'll do it.
Lol, you were right :D
@Leg3nd Assass1n Wait.. seriously? that sounds amazing
What’s the title of the intro song
Jared, I’ll bring some of my guitars by sometime you can check them out 🤘🏻
Killer Tone!!!! KillerSolo!!!!
hi Garrett
can you talk about the engl steve morse amp? i think of buying one... and i love your videos this guitar solo was inspiring!!!
Thanks man! I do like the Steve Morse head a lot! Excellent cleans, and a bunch of mid control on channel 3 for getting great lead tones. Built in noise gate, 2 master volumes, midi.. Great amp! :)
Hi Garret! Great video and your playing always spot on! Im thinking about getting a Solar S1.6FRBLB or a ESP LTD SN-1000 FR or a Charvel Pro-Mod DK24 HSS, these are about the same price tag. Which one woul you choose and why? Thanks!
Nice riffs and axe!
YASS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
How do u compare the fret board to an Ibanez.
Man I want that color and finish, can't find used! lol..
I wish they were Lighter! Otw, they are great
So we got a song with a bunch of effects on it - how does the guitar sound?
This Guitar is specifically made for Metal, i think it sounds great. Do you think you'd see this at a country gig?
recently Solar Guitars have been on my youtube suggestions I don't know why, but because of this Demo, I would like to buy one. Any suggestions Model that is cheaper but feels like a 1000dollars price.? I hope to hear from you soon.
Demoing the guitar or yourself?
its a beauty
Okay where can I buy your music for 3x more expensive because you fucking deserve it!!! MDM instrumental is just an orgasm by its own...
Thanks man :) I think I'm gonna toss these instrumentals up on all the streaming spots. I have 2 songs for sale on my store, link in description
You and Gus Drax and Brandon Ellis have got to do a shred video together!!!...🤙😎🤘
Lol, those dudes would destroy me! XD
GarrettJPeters
Not a chance you’re every bit as good as either one of them are!!!....🤘🤘🤘
@@MachineHeadDissent Ahh you have too much faith in me.. and I love it :D
What tuning was this in?
Not digging the colors on the new model. Really wish I could get that quilted ocean blue.
With that kind of skill, it doesn’t even matter what guitar you play.
your song kinda reminded me of amon amarth
Good job bro but Bass guitar tone killed pressing ur guitar tone and Solar Awesome man
uhhh so wait, did you like the bass tone or no? I cant tell XD
@@GarrettJPeters My English badly i m said ur bass tone most heavy than rthym tone but ur choice maybe like it sound
I bet Ola about to look at this video like 👀
Ha! I like your ideas. Thumb up from me 👍
🤟👽TASTEFULL GUITARISTS OLA IM GUITARING 4 YOU 👽🤟
Aren’t these made in Korea?
They're made in Jakarta, Indonesia.
Narly
I'm debating trading my Ibanez guitars for Solar guitars
Ñisssssssssce 🐲
I'm sorry, but that ocean blue color you have is way more beautiful than the new colors. Sorry, just how I feel. You better not sell it if you're lucky enough to own one.
Gibsony !!!!??? WTF
Great video!! Horrible song!!!
Макаронины по струнам
Killer. I think I need some penicillin cause that Shadowless tune was so infectious I gotta clap.
Hahah XD
That color is F'ng awesome. Harmonies and the invisible orb grasp. So metal! Great job Dude!
