@10:21 "I don't know how they're making such good guitars at an affordable price" Well my friend, it might have something to do with the fact the laborers who built your guitar were severely underpaid, overworked, and exploited.
Strandberg releasing the design to the public is the guitar equivalent of what Mutable Instruments did by releasing the codes of their popular Eurorack synths for everyone to modify/improve/copy. And, it is for the best of the whole community.
Ironically, Ola used to offer the regular rounded neck shape in his Made to Measure shop if I remember correctly. With that said, I picked up a Strandberg Standard refurbished for $1440 and upgrading it with Abasi 7 fishmans once they arrive in the mail. These Chinese copies are cool and it’s definitely on Ola for making these designs files public, but I believe he’s done a lot for the guitar community and deserves my cash. Also I would own one of these if not for the fact that I’ve completely fallen in love with the Endurneck.
I agree. I think ola has done the most for the guitar community in recent years! I’m happy you like them! Cuz I also love my Strandbergs! The endurneck is so good right?!?
Where do you get refurbished strandberg?
I just picked up a 2019 and I am absolutely blown away with the quality. Can’t find a single spec about it though. But I absolutely love it
nice!! what finish??? and is it a 6 or 7 string??
@@jimmyfranklin I got the trans black Venere, 3 way pickup selector, active pickups, slight fan on the frets, ebony fretboard with a flamed maple and rosewood necks crazy good quality for 400 bucks
@@jimmyfranklin I got the 6
Now I want one!
“FaKe GuItaR”. “cHineSe KnOckOff” It just different brand dude. The same companies that produce tele guitar shape from fender. Do you call it knock off too?
That playing at 6:30 , just wow!
thank you so much! that's an original song that I wrote that I am working on making a video for right now actually!.. was worried it didn't sound good but I guess I will put it out! haha!!
@@jimmyfranklin go for it!
@@jimmyfranklin Link please.
Yeah that was nuts!
Don't blame the guitar for the pinch harmonics, blame your thumb.
thanks for the review! been keeping an eye on them for a while, looks killer!
nice!! which one are you looking at??
Looks and sounds pretty darn good for a
Cheap copy.
Usually the original hardware does not fit copies but might not be case
Rock on 🤘 Jimmy
im hoping the hardware fits! I may get one if they do! thank you so much for your support since day one man!!
@@jimmyfranklin of course! Always enjoy your videos and you’re an amazing player.
Check out my new song “The Alaska Triangle” if you have a minute.
Thanks bro
@@jimmyfranklin so have you tried to install orogonal hardware on NK finally?
I have one of these and they're Excellent!, the 2019-2020 were the best NK models that have the hardware you're showing in your video, the previous ones had cheaper and less accurate hardware, also, NK stopped doing exact Strandberg replicas in their bodies and now all the newer models are more "pointy" and ugly looking, they also stopped doing the ones with tremolos... Mine has a rosewood neck and I put Seymour Duncan's, it plays better than most guitars
I've been modding a 2020 NK guitar over the last few months and it's become one of the best sounding, playing and fun guitars I've ever had! Subbing for sure! Love this
thank you so much!.. what pickups did you put in it??
@@jimmyfranklin I went with some BKP Juggernauts. Ordered with the 14 degree angle this guitar takes and was a perfect fit.
That being said, the stock pickups that came in it were actually REALLY good. Had a nice PAF vibe to them and pretty thicc still. AMAZING at pitch harmonics
What mods did you do to it ?
Looking forward to the direct comparison. Curious to see if the NK can possibility be modded with a true .strandberg* bridge and locking nut. If so, how close is it then to the real thing minus the endurneck. I know the neck is not for everyone but the ergonomic body is. Pickups, that's a personal preference/easy solution so no worries there. With a few mods, this could be the best of both worlds while also saving a few bucks.
that's what im saying... Im editing that video now... may have to rerecord it... what other things do you want to know in the comparison??
@@jimmyfranklin Just a few questions....with the NK as-is, is the overall feel and comfort of the body much different? I wouldn't think by much. Is the NK guitar not having the endurneck more "playable" or is it still just preference? Is the endurneck with the whole .strandberg* package justified by much higher price tag when compared to the NK? Is getting a used .stranberg* a consideration as the price, while still higher, may be more worth the money? I also like the color/finish options of the NK's along with their ergonomic design. I do the majority of my playing/practicing/writing sitting down so I've been considering this form factor. With a bit of work, I'm hoping it could be a great option while enjoying the comfort and a bit more cash in my wallet. And the thumbnail song, it gets me every time. Keep up the great work!
@@jimsup5086 HAHAHA ok. I hope the video covers all of these... like I said.. I may have to refill it or do a two part series haha...and long live the THUMBNAIL SONG! LOL
Owned an NK for 4 years now. Love it. 1/5 the price of my Stranberg and I love it just as much. Yeah the hardware and electronics are not as good, but great for the price. Plays just as good though.
you can replace all the electronics and the pickups and its still 2/5 of the strandberg right?
@@choikkan7734 - yes my Stranberg is a better guitar, but for someone who can't afford $2000, I think the NK is a great substitute for 1/4 the price. With new electronics it is 1/2 the quality in my opinion. Better than 2/5
Where can i get one i cant find them
6:30 what you played is so beautiful. I could listen to it on repeat all day
thank you so much! that's a sneak at an original song I am working on!
@@jimmyfranklin Please release this if you haven't already. It is so beautiful :')
Your background music is a biiiit loud. Otherwise, good info!
Edit: I love the jump cuts between talking and playing. It has an ADHD feel that a lot of people are doing nowadays and I like it a lot.
I just think that way lol... some say I am hyperactive...
Love the guitar. Where can I read more on the specs & possible purchase? Can you include a link above?
I am looking forward to watching the comparison review with Strandberg.
i messed up the filming of the comparison of them!... i have to remake it... so i gotta get the guitar from my student again
get ahold of a new NK ,i've got a '23, they changed the hardware and the scale length is 25.5-26.5" on their 6s and 7s.. and the neck is asymmetrical, so similar to the endur neck in that it changes shape to allow your thumb to follow as you move down the neck
Was watching on my xbox, had to open the phone to tell you your playing and little tapping riffs are really sweet man, beautiful guitar i ordered one on amazon similar for 400$, cant wait to give it a try.
that's awesome!! let me know what you think when you get it! and thank you so much!
Sir are you still using that headless guitar? Can I have it please. I'm from the Philippines though. Working minimum wage so its kinda hard hope I'll win this in like a raffle. Haha. I can only imagine.😅
Fake means it isn’t real not that it’s low quality like a cardboard guitar or a plastic toy guitars are fake. Every high end Strat like guitar is a knockoff by definition if they $5K and above. Just because a boutique builder builds a Strat it does not make it not a Strat.
Why’d you call it a “knockoff” instead of just calling it a “Chinese brand”?
I just got a couple of these for less than the cost of one Strandberg. I’m putting better, but not brand-name electronics in them and then they will sound great.
maybe not QUITE as good as the seymour duncans but VERY and i mean VERY f ing close
It is not an Ender neck it is an Endure neck. Also it can't be a knock off guitar as the inventer allows the design to be freely used.
Excellent video, thanks! Great tapping technique!
do you have a link where to buy that guitar?
Ah so beach boy Jimmy. Whose nutty bone is it? Sum ting wong. :-() LOL
Thank you very much for the review) I have exact same model) Great guitar for it's price , i think)
i honestly was blown away... and as youll see in todays video, i am not the type to like chinese fakes!
@@jimmyfranklin
I am also far from enthusiastic about the Chinese copies) I bought this guitar after watching the market for a long time, I decided to take a chance) As a result, the guitar turned out to be much better than I expected. I have been using this guitar for about two years now. Of the shortcomings, I can single out a not entirely correct bridge, there are no additional holes for the saddle mounting bolts on the saddle heels, because of this, the course of the scale adjustment is very limited. I bought this guitar as the first headless, in the end it stayed with me forever) Several of my friends have bought new, seven-string models from this company, the guys are extremely happy) In the meantime, I decided to switch my attention to Goc Guitars, now I'm waiting for a guitar from them) Sorry for bad English, take care)
where can i buy this strandberg knockoff lol cant seem to find it anywhere
Thinking of trading a boss katana 50 watt amp for one of these
wow don't do coke before making a video!!
HAHA! i dont... this is just me... i get this comment a lot though!
@@jimmyfranklin Haha I am just the same only not an epic player like you! Respect :) Cool post and playing, keep em coming! Dave...From South West France
thanks for not playing blues lawyer riffs!!
Thanks for the great review. Love all the clean ambient tones - would be great to hear how some of the heavier stuff sounds in a mix. Any update on the comparison video? I'm so close to hitting the button on one of these..
i have to get this one back... i messed up the filming of my comparison.. HAHA! but as soon as i get it back to borrow im going to do a head to head comparison for sure!
@@jimmyfranklin No worries! Look forward to it. I couldn't wait anyway lol. Just ordered this exact finish, but got them to fit it with the new 2020 updated bridge. Can't wait to get my hands on it!
@@revenski when you get it let me know if how that new bridge is!!
@@jimmyfranklin So, 2 months later, it finally arrived! Gotta say, it's an incredible guitar for the price. They updated the bridge to the new 2020 version as requested, and they also fitted it with a new 2020 3-piece neck with compound radius, which I wasn't expecting but feels and looks amazing! Also, the carves on the back are much improved, with way better access to the top frets, instead of that crescent-shaped carve around the bolt-on screws. (AND they sent it with tools :) - they obviously watched your video)
A few things aren't as I'd hoped - the string locks are now a single piece of metal, rather than the strandberg alternating style, which I would have preferred (though I guess it has the benefit of less parts to lose!) The toggle switch, which I was quite looking forward to, has been replaced with a 3-way blade. Also the vol/tone knobs have come in a shiny black metal, rather than the wood finish. But I'll definitely learn to live with (and love) it regardless.
Just thought I'd let you know the updates. It does seem though that they've completely dropped this style / shape from their store, and are only focusing on the newer 7-string style with sharper horns.
Does the guitar stay in tune?
yes! this one stays in tune equally as well as my real strandbergs!
Finally som1 has it unendured 🥂Shot his own foot 😆😆...Dem cleans sound pretty awesome tho..👍
I love the un endured version!! I strongly dislike the fishmans dirty sound... BUT DEM CLEANS
@@jimmyfranklin Jimmy, with around $ 300 to $ 400 worth of upgrades this guitar can become fantastic. That puts it at around $900 . Have you checked out Ukraine custom guitar manufacturer called i think Valravn guitar? On their Facebook page they list a full spec sheet of fully custom, gorgeous guitar with nothing you would have to upgrade later for $1000. Curious about your opinion on that vs this.
@@allboutthemojo I will look into the brand! ive had some bad luck with Russian guitars in the past!
@@jimmyfranklin facebook.com/valravnguitars/
No whammy no whammy no whammy! Sorry that's what came to mind when you said that.
No whammy bar is the one thing that I don't like.
How do I find one with active pickups???
how good the neck is for shredding?
Very good!! I think I’m this video I mentioned how it compares to the Ibanez AZ. I enjoy it. It’s not super thin but I like a slightly thicker neck for shredding.
@@jimmyfranklin I'm about to pull the trigger, i love everything about it and im willing to throw 200€ on upgrades
My first thought was that looks like a Kiesel, nope. Never thought much about headless guitars but I wouldn't mind adding that to the collection. Great video and jaw dropping licks as well, subscribed!
Thank you!! I love headless now. It’s almost all I play! I have all my classics and awesome guitars but I love my headless! Kiesel next I hope!
@@jimmyfranklin love that color. Unfortunately they don't make too many anymore
From where did you picked this one up?
When you hit the subscribe button because of the Kurt Cobain joke...well done sir, well done XD
Thanks for the vid! Been eyeing Eart for a while now, glad you made a video. Loved your Scott Lepage review and your strandberg reviews!
DUDE!!! thank you Kevin! Did you pull the trigger on one yet??
I own an eart explorer and they are incredible! If you haven't bought one already you should get it
Are you sure about the scale length? Should be like 25-27. Never seen a multiscale with only a .5 inch difference. I could be wrong. I am interested in buying a multiscale and a headless, but if thats the correct scale dementions, not so sure if the NK is what im after.
so... on the Strandberg and in this case the similarly built NK, the 6 string multi scale is not that extreme.. check out the Strandberg multiscale and you will see!
I understand that may be Strandberg multiscale length, however all the specs i have seen on Eart, NK, Grote, ZLG, and even Ormsby, all state that the 6 string is around 24.5-26.75 or 25 -27. As the placement of the bridge sets the length. Wasnt sure if this applied to headless or not.
Have you seen the Musoo 8-string fanned-fret electric guitar? I hope you could review and compare it to strandberg and nk. Thanks. Nice playing! Love the two-hand tapping. Very melodic!
thank you so much! someone else mentioned those. where do you buy them??
@@jimmyfranklin Musoo 8-string fanned-fret electric guitar m.aliexpress.com/item/4000296978864.html. With a price tag of just a fifth of a .strandberg* guitar, surely .schinberg* guitars will be the talk of the town.
AND the Chinese even have a left handed version..
鲁产 (this account for about 90% of Chinese knockoffs
I love the knockoffs!! 🤘🏽🤘🏽
Looks good for a copy.
You say you don't know how they can make the guitar so inexpensive...???
No way you are that naive.
I am not trying to insult you ...just saying that child labor and human slavery are very serious issues.
ok... wait..first of all, where in the video did i say that?? i just have to check my context... second of all, these are made by one guy.. you can contact him directly for custom orders..
@@jimmyfranklin
I was paraphrasing, but it's at around 10:20.
If they are truly made by one guy then ...my bad.
But at the price and quantities these are being sold, I do not believe that for a minute.
I have (through work) had to deal with World and Cort factories in S.K. and the conditions aren't great.
But let's be honest this is the world we live in today. I like inexpensive stuff too, and am in no way saying I don't buy Chinese stuff. That would be literally impossible to even do. I guess I am upset that the current admin is going to jump right back into bed with China, ignoring all the things we now know are true.
I apologize if I came off as an ass, it's just a touchy issue with me.
Rant over.
And I subbed...
Weight compare to The classic strandberg?
pretty much the same!
Do you have a spotify channel?
Can’t wait to see a lesson on that incredible piece of music at 6:30 good damn job
HAHAHA!! thats crazy that so many people are asking for this!
thank you so much!!
Dude this is a mind blowing technique, that’s why we’re all asking a tutorial 😋
@@Frenchmelodymaker thank you man! i may have to bite the bullet and just finish recording the song and show how i do it!
What a nice idea, it’s so beautiful that it deserves to be finished
Lol they're not even Chinese lmao
What I want in a guitar:
- Does it stay in tune? [NO] (Tuning Mechanisms)
- Will the strings last? [NO] (Tuning Mechanism, smooth frets, etc.)
- Do I like the design? [YES] (IBANEZ JEM... ahem)
I'll only buy it if all 3 parameters are there. Everything else is a matter of skill.
A qué vendedor se la compraste y por qué medio?? Saludos
esto se compró en Reverb.com pero están disponibles en Ebay. (solía google translate)
check this out iv just got one today and its a beast the pickups are as good as my seymour duncans!!! im staggered! u better believe it its a fucking beauty. im blown away i expected a right knock off job, and iv just bought a cheap 7 string 500 quid ibanez the nk absolutely blows it out the water in every single way. its got me the playing buzz fully, im in love with it; buy them if your thinkin about it especially now the pickups dont need changing, these are just as my seymour duncans il prove it with a video
the clean tapping riff at 6:33 is from an actual song or its just a improv that u did?
that is actually from a song i wrote! still working on it! haha
@@jimmyfranklin that's cool, how it's called? And can I find it here on your channel, and does it have tabs?
Any of these (almost any) can be used as a good base for a killer mod guitar. Usually the woodwork is good enough that it's worth just for the work. YYMV ofc.
if its from REVERB maybe the other owner did some work?
Tempted to get an 8 string model, 8 strings always seem to be too cheap or too expensive... I usually always sell gear on and there's obviously not gonna be any resale value on these unless modded kinda. But I guess if you're gonna pay as little as you are for one of these you'll just keep it. Anyhow, great demo mate. They certainty look cool:)
Not many people can buy stranberg. I have 5 guitars which costed all together less than stranberg :D
Do you figure one of these would be decent to learn to play on? Cheap but good enough to get into the basics?
I think so. What kind of music are you into?? Have you ever played???
@@jimmyfranklin All kinds. My playlist has Stevie Nicks next to Dave Mustaine and Yokko Kanno lol. :D As to playing, no. Never have, though I've wanted to try, and with the restrictions, I figured hey, UA-cam's got about a billion tutorials...
If it can stay in tune it's enough for me to buy it. I play in church and my stratocaster after a hour feels so heavy in my shoulder. I'd love to get a headless guitar.
what do you mean about "compound radius neck" ? Is it more C or D profile? Thanks
the neck at the nut is a different radius than near the 12th fret... it changes to improve reach.. near the nut it is more of a D and it thins out further up!
@@jimmyfranklin Ok thanks, but it's strange because most people referred it to a C in this guitar. Thank U!
@@sand69 i definitely didnt feel it as a C as much as a thicker D
Your channel is absolutely excellent brother! Keep it coming...
thank you so much! sorry it took a few days to respond, lifes been insane but a new video is up now! enjoy! and thank you so much!
The music in the background is like a fever dream bro 😭 😍 😩
looking forward for the comparison video
It’ll be out soon. Gotta get the guitar from my student one more time hahah!
It seems to sounds alright. How does it play?
i subbed because the name lmao should check out the EART seem intresting alot of good reviews
i need to get my hands on one of them!! they do the kockoffs but they look different right???
@@jimmyfranklin look just like the strandberg bridge is different and neck profile slightly off as far as I could tell would love to see some reviews on it
I got an Eart GW2 pro and its awesome! I put duncan pickups in it. Now about to order an NK 7 string to see how it goes.
The playing that starts at 3:08 is so goddamn beautiful. I don’t want tabs, I want to know where to look to learn the theory behind the way you play.
I need quarantine to end so I can find a good teacher. If anyone in the comments gives or takes online lessons lemme know
first things first... thank you so much for the kind words! it means so much!
second thing: I actually teach online! I have been teaching online for 6 or 7 years... even pre covid! go to my instagram and contact me! I would love to help you out! @jimmyRFranklin
Learn the song "i love my parents" by buckethead and remember the shapes
How much it cost sir??
This one is around $300! some are a little bit more.. also it has some modifications
wtf your monitor
which monitor???
I'm tempted to get one of those but a big reason why I like the Strandberg is the neck carve.
same... I love the Strandberg neck... but after playing one for so long now ive realized I don't NEED it.. but if you havnt played the endurneck and you want to then you have to go with a real Strandberg
Do they make a fretless version?
So, where do you get one??
EBAY!!
@@jimmyfranklin Ahh I was looking on ebay UK. There's none listed on there! I'll shoot them an email. Cheers!!

@@worldsanoyster WOW!!! that's incredible! what kind of other restrictions!?!
link of guitar ??
I have an Eart GW1 and a Boden Metal 6 neck-thru. Minus the pickups and overall weight (8 vs 5 lbs), they're pretty comparable.
The pickups on the Eart are honestly pretty bad. But everything else is pretty good.
Where can I get one of those?
i cant seem to find them anywhere...
Great video man! I'm actually ordering the purple & blue 7 string 2020 model tomorrow, & if its good I'll be ordering the blue & green 6 string 2020 model. The 2020 models also have the asymmetric neck like Strandbergs. I can't wait to get them.
REALLY!? they have the fake endure neck?? or just asymmetric??
@@jimmyfranklin apparently it goes from a C shape on the lower frets then goes to a flatter, Wizard style shape. Not sure if that is what the endure necks on a Strandberg is though, as I have never seen one in person. The new necks are also 5 piece & come in fan fret. The builder is apparently very easy to work with, so you can get different necks on each body, usually for free. I'm going to ask for the half ebony/flamed maple fretboard he makes.
@@shannonm7981 WOOOOW! that's incredible... im gonna look into that... look up the endurneck its like a square neck
@@jimmyfranklin I've been looking them up the past half hour & they seem awesome. Hopefully I can try one out in the near future.
Get an Eart headless instead. I'm still pissing myself I was able to snag it off Amazon for $300. Absolutely immaculate.
really??? like.. a headless style???
@@jimmyfranklin Yes! Though, it's not fan fret. Stainless steel frets, pretty decent pickups, and better hardware than on any of my other guitars hands down. It's unreal.

Where do i buy one?
Hi,
Where did you buy this guitar?
Thanks.
Alex.
My student bought this on Reverb.com BUT I think it was originally purchased from Ebay
Give China another 5-10 years and they'll be cranking out guitars comparable, if not better than anything manufactured here or Japan; they learn quick (Huwai phones instantly come to mind).
you think so?? cuz china has always been the cheapest side... you think they could pump out that kind of product like this for a good price??
@@jimmyfranklin: A good price is subjective, at best, but yes, I do think think (given sufficient time and Western product feedback) that they will indeed improve their guitars/basses as they have with so many of their other products for export to Western countries, to say nothing of their own internal market of some 1.5 billion people. The 'cheap export' paradigm is changing to 'value added' products, even as we speak. Remember Japanese manufacturers Ibanez of the 70s-80s? They weren't always the leaders they are today.
Also, I think it's worth remembering that China has a (comparatively) thriving domestic music scene of it's own to consider in this regard, which is largely informed and inspired by the West (same is also true in Russia).
-Give them some time; I think we'll live to see some interesting developments coming from China despite the outdated, if often fair criticism concerning quality and innovation.
Thanx for reply.
No.
I saw an other video where the guy said that the tuners can’t go probably lower than drop c but the barrel were all the way in the back already ( I don’t know if my comment is understandable ?). What do you think about it ? I’m looking maybe for one and drop it ton drop A or tune it to play like Architects tuning. Thanks !
excelent question.. i havent tried it on this, BUT on my strandbergs its all about setting it up for drop c before you tune it... when you put a new string on, you should be able to set the barrel with enough slack to drop tune!
I liked the video because of the amazing playing.....
thank you so much!! anything specific you liked??
The beautiful tapped passages are very tasteful...
Compound radius has nothing to do with neck shape, it is the fretboard
oh contrair bon jour... it has everything to do with the neck... the neck gets thinner in RELATION to the fret board as you move up... its a compound radius neck... thinner at the top and thicker at the bottom would mean the neck on the back has some sort of change in it as well...
@@jimmyfranklin mon frer
This is great
thank you so much!! you have one??

Do you offer online lessons?

Awesome review!
Now you have me looking up their 7 strings online... :-)
OH SHIIIII!!! you going 7!?!?
thought about it; most of the stuff I listen to is usually drop tuned 🤘
Of course, practicing more would also help the cause! 😀
I was gonna get an NK but then i saw GOC and went with them. By far the best guitar ive ever played and ive owned 2 prs’s. For a little over a grand GOC is killing the headless multiscale game with their own design and phenomenal qc. There isnt one bad thing i cab say about it. Definitely worth the money and then some.
which model do you have?! I gotta get my hands on one!
I got the materia 7 in pink. Its badass dude. I swapped the stock pups with the fishman abasi set. Absolutely brutal. Worth every penny i cant say enough good things about GOC.
@@MrTrixzzzz I MUST TRY AND GET ONE THEN!
GOC needs to upgrade their stock pickups and paint job tho.
Love my GOC Satya 6 so much guitar for the $!
Great playing man!! Cool guitar! 🤘🤘
thank you so much!! you have one yet??
@@jimmyfranklin No, I don't have any kind of headless guitar, but it's on my list!
I can tell you right now, I havent played a guitar as experytly manufactured as the Boden 8 metal in a long time. FANTASTIC instrument.
You get what you pay for! Sounds like a tinty toy!
i dont think so .. if anything i dont like those pickups... also it was a room mic...
@@jimmyfranklin that's cool. So mids and lows are good? Any warmth?
@@darrylfranks6976 it is when its clean.. the distortion is just not great.. and im not sure why... these fish mans are great when they are clean
@@jimmyfranklin it's the wood and the finish. That's where money 💰 is saved and quality is lost.
Really Really been thinking about getting one of these. One Question though. How is the bridge and tuning? is it hard to tune? and does it stay in tune? and good point about the input jack being in the wrong place for some of these knock-offs. Great vid, very informative
well... what are your goals with it?? as far as studio and home playing goes, it would be great. it does stay in tune very well and is easy to tune. but I can imagine that you may get one that is not as good as this (since a lot of knockoffs tend to be inconsistent). I have only played this one and I could easily gig with it.
Got the 202 7 string version a few weeks ago. It's a beautiful guitar and the lume inlays are actually lumed! XD
2020*
HAHAHAHAH!!! LUMINOUS!! Congratulations!
