@j-man9457 OH, no you don't. I gave ya a compliment and I meant it. One of the first comments I ever made in your channel addressed how well you do on the stage. And I wasn't talking about your tuba playing. Yeah, you do alright. That's a fact.
@@wasteddude9387 thanks buddy you're to kind. Here's my secret... I chicken pick because my fretting hand and picking hand are super uncoordinated! I can't pick fast without getting tangled up hahaha! Using pick and 3rd and 4th finger allows me to move from string to string faster! So for that reason, I've never been proficient at metal stuff!🤘
I have one as well and I love it! It's like they took all of the top-notch guitar parts that's made in China and installed them in one guitar. It's like a Schecter and a Gibson had a baby. The pickups are the best generic pickups I've heard. Well worth the money IMO.
@@leedee4968 not for everybody for sure, but don't blame the crappy playing on the guitar! Honestly the most comfortable telecaster I own sitting or standing, and I have 9!
Hey, greetings from the sunshine city, Orillia Ontario. Great to see a fellow Canadian playing with such style. Not much of a guitarist myself but like to try. I think Musi better give you that Fusion for doing such a great job demoing it. I'm sure they've sold a few after this video. Even better I think they should call it the J-MAN signature model. You seem to have taken to it pretty quickly. Musi's look to be good quality at half the price they should be. Anyway my friend enjoyed the video. Play on.
@@dougbird9139 hey Thanks man! Yeah they let me keep it and I still play it hahaha! They are fantastic guitars! They have more features than fenders at 1500$ it's crazy!
Hi Sir!:really impressed about the sound of this fusion guitar.Since a couple of months Id'me planning to buy a Telecom style but with two humbuckers.My main concern in this one is the lack of strings retainers in the headstock.Please Id want to have your feedback about it.Thank you so much.
Hey thanks for watching and reaching out! I have 2 of these. 1 needed a string tree over the E and B strings in order to get more break angle over the nut, but the other one did not. Just depends how the nut is cut. You will not need a string tree over the G&D strings. The staggered tuners add enough break angle. No problems at all. Fantastic guitars!😀
@J-MAN - That was some whipped up playing along with a nice demo of the guitar's features! The headstock design seems to pay subtle homage to the Parker Fly. Did the frets need any work such as leveling or end polishing?
Hey Thanks! No the frets were are perfect on this one. No high frets and smooth as glass! Love them! The head stock is actually very similar to Suhr! But yes the painted part sort of looks Parker-ish 😀
@@j-man9457 Glad you checked my sanity on the Parker bit... I'm comparing this with my Firefly FFTL which is all I got comparably speaking. Stainless steel frets are a key feature IMO, (on both) and the M Musis have the additional advantages of staggered locking tuners, and NO fretwork needed (FFTL had some overhanging frets to be filed, with some small areas of defects on the treble fingerboard sides where it looked like final QC might have been trying to fix those... in a rush). Also, dealing with Amazon for the Musi is a big plus compared with the vagueries of the same with Firefly. Is the Musi's Split Combo pickup position noise-canceling? That's another key detail that Firefly appears to have neglected...
@@TechnoRiff No fret sprout on the Musis at all! Not sure about the noise cancelling because both my Classic and my Fusion are dead quiet in all positions of the switch unless I'm running high gain.... Jason
I did once I knew for sure I could keep it. The difference the plastic makes when you remove it is not Audible to the human ear. Out of the box, with or without plastic, these guitars make most Fenders look bad lol! Thanks for watching!
Jason, I found your channel yesterday by coincidence, and I have watched so many videos in the last 24 hours that it ain’t funny. I love what you do man, and think it is hilarious, that you and I use much of the same pedals, and also, I’m a Quilter Labs fan and user. I have played a few times in PEI, and love it. I wanted to ask, how do you feel the quality is on this one, when the coils are split, compared to your other Musi? Like you, I like a good Country tone. God bless you Brother.
Hey Shawn! Great to hear from you! I think it sounds great full and split, but I'll do a comparison of the classic and the fusion split as other people are curious as well! Very impressed with this company so far! And quilter? Love their stuff! Thanks for checking in. Much appreciated! J
Good for you man!!! Good things happen for good people!!! I hope they watch my Vid and send me a free one!!!!!! I really love stainless steel frets now!
Once I took those coated strings off I had to have the trees.... I'm afraid of taking the nut off!!! did you look at it? That could be bad... thinking about my first brass nut or roller brass nut!!! which would cover a mishap up!!! I loosed up the neck and it came alive. I'll do a vid on it in a week...i wait 2 weeks to let it get steady!!!!
@@theguitarprofessionals8584 good idea. Wood always needs to settle and roasted wood is even more stubborn haha I think the nut on mine is fine. Not binding at all. Haven't looked closely at it for intent of removal!
I was hoping it was going to be the black speckled model. Great sounds. I agree about the string tree on hi strings. Poor break angle. You shd gig it next time out to see how it works in band situation.
You know what? I have a gig with kind of an 80s 90s rock band on the weekend so I'm definitely going to bring this thing and see what it can do bone stock original strings and all hahaha!
Man! How cool is that? They dealt with you like a serious, customer-focused company.... and then some! Took a very minor gripe... and dialed in on it. Sent you a free guitar!! And it's killer! I know.... too many ! explanation points in this comment ! I can't help it. I got excited. LOL Man... I love that guitar, and you just can't beat a free, killer guitar! I love it. Not a huge fan of the green... but I have actually been looking at this model. I think those pickups sound fantastic. Cool, cool guitar.... and looks to be quality.
As I mentionned in reply to another comment, if Fender, Ibanez etc... are considered quality instruments as per the "standard", then yes these Musi guitars meet the Standard for sure! Yeah they went above and beyond for me. I feel very humbled that they would consider me worthy at all... never thought this would happen! I would not have chosen tjat color either man hahaha!

Thanks so much Curtis! You are very kind! I'm just fair and don't know much about technique or music theory, but I live to play and love these Musis! 😎😍🤘🤘
Nice man! Ypu can't beat a nice set of P-90s. And really, the coil split is a nice idea, but with the reduction in volume being almost halved when split, I personally never use it! Enjoy the new axe bud! J
Hey Colonel, That's a tough question... although similar in design, these feel very diferent in the hands. I'm not sure (haven't measured yet) but I think the fusion's neck is slightly chunkier than the classic. Should be the opposite in my opinion. I kind of prefer the feel of the neck on the fusion and the heel joint is simply perfect. I prefer the hardtail bridge and single coil sounds of the classic and also prefer the roasted maple fretboard on the classic over the rosewood fret board on the fusion... if I could only have one, I'd probably go with the classic only because of the hard tail set up. However if I needed 1 guitar to cover a wide range of styles, the fusion would be my choice for sure with it's 8 different tone combinations!😁
this too, beautifull sounds! nice characteristics both humbucker and split mode, also wammy bar seems to work well, may be losing an calibrating springs its possible to work in the two way too, sharping and flatting, thanks for the demo
Woozers, both those guitars seem well worth the money!! So cool that they sent you the fusion, maybe they won’t want it back, or let you keep it for a crazy low price..seeing how it’s Pre Owned😆! Am I crazy or is it staying in tune really well?! I looked them up today on the Amazon here in the States and they were about $360, before shipping. What a deal!! Keep those videos coming!! Insane great playing 💥💥👍
Wow! 360? That is crazy! I'd get 2 if they were that low here! Great guitars for sure and yes very good tuning for an out of the box set up. Quality is mind boggling!🤪
1) I totally agree about the break angle of the high strings over the nut. No doubt they were probably hoping the staggered tuners would negate the need for string trees, but it didn’t quite work out. To be perfectly fair, it’s REALLY difficult to get a good break angle on those high strings with a 6-inline, non-angled headstock that way. The Music Man 4+2 design is the ONLY design I’ve seen to date that can simultaneously achieve both optimal break angles AND straight-line paths for all 6 strings without string trees on a non-angled headstock. Too bad Music Man’s trademark prevents others from using that design. 😔 2) This is another AWESOME guitar! I’ve been debating whether to get this one or the Classic model. Both seem good! The “Andromeda” humbuckers on this one, while not quite twangy like the Classic model, they really do come surprisingly close to Tele/Strat sounds on the bridge/neck when the coil split is engaged! The humbucker-neck and split-bridge combination sounds especially good!
Yeah 100% agree! I don't think you can go wrong with either one. This fusion, I feel has an even better build quality than the classic. Love how the neck meets the body. Very well done. Very similar to a music man!
@@j-man9457 I agree, the back of that sculpted neck heel on the Fusion model looks REALLY elegant, doesn’t it!?! I also totally get why they didn’t do this on the Classic though. The Classic is like a modern take on the traditional Telecaster, trying to bring some modern refinements like body cuts and a sculpted neck heel, while still keeping everything that makes a Telecaster truly a Telecaster. The Fusion model, by comparison, is obviously meant to be an all-out attempt to make something truly modern that can do both humbucker and single coil sounds, and that can appeal to both classic rock and country players, as well as heavier genres like metal, etc., and those that are hoping to play some of it all. My sense is that “Fusion” guitars like those being made by Musi and Harley Benton have a LOT of appeal for precisely this reason.
@@j-man9457 Also, I definitely wouldn’t change the pickups on this one! They sound REALLY good. Maybe not EXACTLY like a true vintage Tele or Strat, but they sound good in all modes, and they seem TOTALLY appropriate for the intended Fusion concept of this guitar.
@@alsantariga1085 I thought the same, but the way the edges are beveled, the guitar is very comfortable as is. I don't miss the forearm contour at all...😃
I'm interested in their stratocasters,they too are getting great reviews, for overall construction and set up, hopefully they come out with other models soon,a lot of us budget guitar buyers, are really tired of having to change hardware and pickups,if they can just make the pickups sound this good on all their guitars, they have won another fan.
@@j-man9457 BTW, true hardtail Strats are VERY hard to find, whether vintage or modern! Robert Cray is one of the very few players I know of offhand to have an official signature Strat model with a true hardtail bridge. I don’t think you’d be happy with the sound though, even if you liked the body shape.
Ohhh that is a tough one! They work so well together! If I jad a guitar but a crappy amp I'd get the superblock. However if I only had one guitar and it was just ok, I'd get the Musi!
Ya I have quite a few nice guitars and amps so it’s not about need….it’s more about which is the hotter bang for the buck!?! Lol …your vids are great !!
@@colonelranders747 I hear ya... well if you want a superblock eventually, get it now or get one used if you can find one because they have already gone up substantially in price since I got mine last year.... just bang for buck based on prices as of today, the Musi for sure. Out of the box, I would match the quality, playability and sound of the musi against any off the wall 1500 telecaster at my local music store! The quilter in my opinion is far superior to any other amp in it's price range, but not convinced it would hold up to a 1500-2000 amp of similar wattage... Hope that helps haha😄
Hmm this kinda helps…. I wouldn’t expect the Quilter Superblock to replace any of my tube amps but for the money it looks rather enticing. Likewise that MMusi seems to be on par with my American strats and teles. It’s rather amazing how music instruments quality over the years have gotten so good for cheaper and cheaper pricing.
Oh forgot to ask, is the Fusion a heavy guitar? I’m adverse to heavy guitars…under 8 pounds would be desirable. My MJT Tele is a hair under 7 pounds completely love that
What's not to like? Great guitar.
Hey Twowaymuir!
It's been a while! Hope all is good with you... yes these Fusions are Amazing! Incredible guitar for an unbeatable price!
