Thank You for commenting.... I am glad you liked the review. I try very hard to do the best review I can and show very thing I find interesting. I hope you reach out to me for new product reviews when the time comes. Again, thank you for commenting it truly means a lot to me to hear from the company that made the guitar.
Sure wasn't expecting this review after that live stream :0) Amazed how you even get the somewhat poorly made guitars playing so well! Never really understood why some guitar necks are shimmed, or why and when they should be. Always learn something new watching your videos, Thanks again.
I was going to list this guitar for sale. I was just getting ready to post the listing...... But... If I send it back. Someone will get a good playing Latitude now that has been setup and is working as it should. I'm within the window of returns... it has only been here 2 weeks.... I'm sure anyone that would have received this guitar would have sent it back. Yes, this guitar does play well.... and it sounds good.... I just wanted to do a FULL REVIEW on the guitar and show what I received. If someone gets one like this one, I hope this video will help them fix it if they choose to keep it.
It does... The problem is the NC Routing programing... This guitar is poorly craved on a NC router. Their are so many problems with the tool path used that it shouldn't be fixed. A new program should be made ... but keep the design.
Excellent review. Mine has some of the problems you experienced. Especially routing. My sunburst finish is beautiful. Good out weights bad. If it was a different shape I would return it but it looks and plays great. As usual you are spot on everything as I see it. Love the pickups, especially clean. But this company does not back-up their products. They would never return my inquiries. I think they rushed this out to get as much profit as the time. It even has full size potentiometers. By the way I am a subscriber. UA-cam needs more honest people like you.
Thank You ... This channel is about the product and what to expect if your order one... So, your comments are here for other to review as well. AND Thank You for the kind words... I try very hard to be open and honest. As far as UA-cam ... Yes, I started this channel due to what I saw seeing when looking for reviews on guitars. I wanted to know more than what I was seeing and hearing. I have tried to add content to the reviews as people have asked for things, but I still forget and miss stuff... LOL In this video Weight and pickup output was missed... I just forgot all about it until it was uploaded already.
These are now 199 on amazon.Bought another and returned the other. the neck on mine looks roasted. The second one I got looks too light like yours. Finish on the sun burst is flawed but shiny. The neck is chunky but I like it! Mostly same flaws as yours. It's worth 199 if you don't mind the flaws.
Thank You for commenting and letting everyone know how yours came. Seems all these are about the same on QC / Fit and Finish. I did get mine to play very well . . . I did add a little more shim in the neck pocket vs the stock setup. And Yes if the routing around the pickups is no big deal to ya.... then this guitar is one to look at the 200.00 price point. Again, Thanks for joining in on the topic and sharing.
What's Weird is , your Bell is highlighted but the algorithm doesn't put you in my feeds now. But it did before. But now to view your videos I have to search your ID. UA-cam is strange
I have heard some channels have SUB's just GONE ! ! ! ! They have to re-Sub... and hit the bell again and again... You Tube likes short video's 15mins and under... UA-cam like the Shorts.... It really pushes me to do them... It wants to be a Twitter/UA-cam video Platform.... 24 hors is the window on my video's... I see it on my charts.. after 24 hours the views are cut 80% This is why so many are leaving the platform for the other platforms....
From what I heard the owner use to work at EART but promised more innovative designs and better quality. I give him credit for the former but not the latter.
Ya heard the same thing.... It takes funds to do a NEW GUITAR COMPANY. Maybe once they get going ... they will start fixing production problems they are having. Right now, they need to work on the CN programing... Get the core of the guitar up to speed....
Yes ... This was a miss . . Price vs what I received. Too many problems out of the box....There are other guitars that are a better value at this price point. I'm reviewing one right now that is just ! ! ! ! ! Well, I think it's the best sub 230.00 dollar guitar has reviewed to date...... I would say it is playing on a 600.00-dollar level ! ! ! Thanks, Bob, for commenting !
Very good review, thank you!

I was waiting for someone to actually review this. 🤘

HMMM.......
No Comment from the Channel Moderator ... About Squirrel Mode ...
That pic on a T-Shirt with the Music N Gear Logo ... LOL
@@DominionFretWorks Well, I have heard many, many times I'm not the most observant person in the world :0)
This guitar has a lot of potential.
It does...

Looks like they ripped off that one guys shape that came out not that long ago. Its cool looking but that headstock looks weird to me
MusicMan copy..... Ya the headstock is....different.
overall, it has a cool look and is easy to play.
$300 is a lot in today's time for guitar quality. You can get much higher quality than this guitar at even less money.
