Entertaining and genuinely informative in one package, a Sped classic. I wish I'd had one of these when I spent 5 weeks away from home recently, it's the perfect travelling companion. Especially with the screw-off neck.
Just discovered there isn't a GTRS dealer in Australia. How could that happen?
Thank you Kit! Stoked you liked this one. There was a joke every 2 minutes and a bunch of playing. I gave myself 488% on Rotten Tomatoes. Yeah it really would be awesome as a travel guitar. Sling that pedal in the front as well and you're bulletproof.
Hmmmm, maybe they're working on expanding. If not I will move to Oz and become the dealer.
Great demo, and I enjoy the wit!
Hahaha so well filmed, demonstrated and edited mate. Love a nasty stratty tone
Thank you mate, appreciate that. You should get one of these… 💪🏻😏
An excellent demonstration my friend. One of the best I have seen. Bravo buddy.
Thanks so much Keith! Glad you liked it. 🤘🏻
@@SpedSpedding the pleasure was entirely mine dear fellow.
Take care.
Metal red looks beautiful! Once again a wonderful video. Love you sped!
It’s a very cool colour. Iron Man vibes; makes sense with the tech too! 💪🏻
1st time here Sped. That was a great review with a funny vibe, GJ, TY.
Haha awesome! Hope to see you again soon. 💪🏻
What a weapon Sped💯😎
As you say brilliant for practicing and travelling
Fantastic video. Perfect mix of humour and information .spot on👍
Stylish or what 👍💯😎
They’re really cool aren’t they. And this is just a quick look from me. 🤯🤯
Yeah they need to make a LP version. Killer review Sped.🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟
I’ll pass on feedback as several people have said this as well. Thank you! 🙌🏻
No, not an lp, but a 24.75 neck, light and good neck access.
some great tones❤
Great review, thanks Sped. The only trouble now is that I want one !
That’s no trouble at all! 😏😏😏
Great review, lots of fun. I agree the GTRS is on its own, it's not trying to be anything else, it doesn't need to, it's carved its own niche.
I'm very tempted, I was thinking of doing some Dave Murray type mods, plus new tuners and trem on one of my Japanese Strats (come to think of it I don't play a lot of Maiden, but I like his set up, I tend to play blues rock in the main). Pondered if the App on the GTRS would be a 5 minute wonder, or best thing since sliced bread - you've demoed just how versatile the App is. Selecting pick ups from the ages is awesome - okay I'm a bit mutton now, so I couldn't hear a great lot of difference - on a phone - with the bridge pick-up? But the neck etc was remarkable.
A guitar for all people the quality on this and P model looks to be very good straight from the box too.
Time to start saving and start selling 🤔🤔🤔
Yeah, got to agree about the black knob -would be good if there was a white one with the loot. The black one makes it jump out among the 100s of block-heeled Strat copies when shopping, but I imagine 99/100 users would swap for the white one within a day. For a factory limited to 1 paint colour, they lucked out with Shell Pink -it looks great.
I absolutely love the pink. I got to choose and I think I chose well, it was between that and the gold.
It would blend in more if you had them matching. And those who know would know.
Regardless, for the money it’s a bargain without all the tech. Very cool product. 🙌🏻
your humour is straight up my alley...cheers from your cousin country Canada!
Part time guitarist, full time comedian Mike! 🇨🇦
Hmm.. cool guitar... I can see myself owning one of those to use in my studio at night-time'ish 😛 -tnx for the video Sped.
This is the BEST GTRS review on you tube
Epic, thank you Kev! ❤️🙌🏻
Bro if that backing music is your original work it's dope as f
Awesome video. Even subscribed cause your really cool. Why isn't anyone going in depth about the usb recording features? Like latency in recording software or something. I'm sure the usb isn't just for charging and for otg
Yes you can use the USB for direct recording into a phone. I mentioned this and in the Prime P1 video as well. As I have an audio interface I can run a jack lead into the front I wouldn’t use the usb to record. I have multiple inputs to consider like shotgun mic as well etc.
I *can't wait* to get my hands on one of these guitars. *CAN'T WAIT!!*
🐘🐘🐘🐘🐘🐘🐘
You will love it, is it a GTRS Christmas?
@@SpedSpedding, I should be so lucky!!
👍👍 🤗🤗
Hahahahaha what a review. Loved every bit of it!
Thank you! Glad you had fun. 😂😂
Did you try the S801 (maple?)? I would like to know if sliding on the maple is easier than in the rosewood? I expirienced that with my Fender guitars.
I’ve only tried this one!
No,... You're not a knob. But Super, indeed.
Ive always loved Mooer gear, I own a few pieces. This this is a nice bit of gear. When the Smart LP style comes, Ill grab one.
Thanks Sped.
Cheers!
Hahaha, thank you Jon! Appreciate the clarification. Imagine that, we'd have to take that through it's paces for sure!
I've gotten the intelligent pedal, maybe I need the guitar now...hm whats next an intelligent amp? Intelligent strings? Intelligent pick?
Great video Sped as always! 🤘
Hahaha! "These strings change themselves!" would love that tbh.
Amazing kit for under 500 quid, when you say 10 hours, is that with each charge? and can't help wondering what happens if you get a technical glitch, nevertheless it's an amazing axe, regarding the black knob I would paint it.
10 hours per charge yeah. When you say technical glitch? You mean like with the app?
@@SpedSpedding Yeah with the app.
J'ai regardé la vidéo en traduction instantanée, c'est la plus complète que j'ai vu,je suis chanteur et mauvais guitariste, j'espère vraiment que cette guitare va me faire progresser ?
Tu m'as définitivement convaincus, l'instrument est commandé.
Merci pour tout 😊
You’re so welcome and I’m glad the translation worked for you. UA-cam is clever. ❤️
❤The People of Mooer seem to really look after you. What a fantASTIC GUITAR TOO. I was looking at a midi guitar made in Eire by Rob O Reilly-£3K.
So Mooer s again seems excellent value.
Do you think these guitars and mod fx will impact on the 2nd hand market much?
Ive recently acquired a line6 pod X3 live, As Im sure you know you do need a bit of tech savvya patience to fully utilise.
Im impressed at how 1uickly and thoroughly you seem to manage, but I suppose thats the Sped !+!😮way
Yeah they’re brilliant to work with and we have a good thing going!
I’m good with technology I’ll admit but the set up process and usability of the products has been effortless. A few taps and a QR code scan and you’re away. The little pedal is a treat as well.
Yes it does seem that accessibility has vastly evolved the clues in the name .
Honestly how did you rate the tone comparison and playability with your LPs. Re would you record with it?
Check out Paul Davids review on another midi guitar made by O Reilly
@10:53 what's the name of that song? It's like an 80s hair band right? So familiar. If you would have kept playing it does down a note next right?
Hahaha that’s me ripping off The Hellion by Judas Priest 😂😂😂
@@SpedSpedding more like!
IRON MAIDEN two minutes to midnight! Sped Razor!!
Do you know if is possible to play in real pickups sound mode (like a normal guitar) when battery definitely dies ( and not buying another) ? A very good review... Thank you
Yeah it does work, because it worked in the video before I turned it on! 🙌🏻
@@SpedSpedding Than you,
That super knob line😂 😂
😂😂😂😂 glad you liked it Jay.
To be fair@@SpedSpedding I like all your content, please NEVER stop, you’re one hell of a guitarist and entertainer too 👏
As a touring musician, I see some of the cons of using this as only thing on a stage:
1. It looks like that adjusting parameters on stage between songs or just as you feel it is quite difficult, need to bring an Ipad or use your phone which is not very handful. Also the Bluetooth conection itself is not so stable.
2. Sound engineers love XRL conections to go straight to the house so you need proper length cable or DI box which is another bother.
3. For my ears, digital effects on this is not as high quality as for exaple Helix, also amps and cabs are mediocre, no IR slots, and limited eq possibilities.
4. If that cheap looking footswich goes down, you can only go bank up with the knob.
Seems like a fully operational micro recording studio in a guitar with two peripherals. I think the only case candy missing is a phone holder you can attach to a mic stand like what folks use in their cars. I suppose I could buy one for $10. But think how much smarter this guitar would be if one were included............
Hahaha, you didn't get a full glimpse in the front pocket did you? It's like Mary Poppins' bag in there; what if there are phone holders for everyone? (There isn't.) But it's a good shout and literally one of the only ways this guitar could get smarter.
Of course the more I ponder what Ive learned at your insistence....the idea that I...a non-gigging musician... Could have a world of amps at the touch of a finger whilst performing at a 100K seat arena of my mind...is incomprehensible. Able to swap out and flip settings trying something new on the fly....all on a screen the size of a $1 bill....I mean after all...arnt we all doing more with our wireless devices....being able to play 127 different setups all micro adjustable to sound like 1000 different guitars without having to take the one guitar off my body....Im nearly sold.
@@nascargas It’s absolutely insane isn’t it! 😂 I think back to my childhood thinking that technology was peaking whilst staring at my Nokia 3310. Cut to this video…
Shutting down the screw-in trem factory - Love it! I hate those things, Fender...
🤣once and for all!
Is there a subscription charge to access the Mooer s interface website?
I don't think there's any subscription charge. I haven't been asked for anything like that.
I visited Manchester years ago when they were knocking the Hulme crescents down.I was seeing a girl from Rochdale (not Lisa Stansfield).
It was a pretty wild night the council orchestrated a massive show and the people of Hulme certainly knew how to party. Believe me that was one of the wildest nights Ive ever experienced. The actual organised show i volved cars being hurled off the top of the building blocks. The after party was akin to a riot, cars driven into massive fires etc.
Yes Ill never forget that night.
Very cool tech .. and very impressive taking into consideration the price!!.. but erm it’s a bit pink!!.. I mean imagine rocking up to the Pig and Pheasant boozer to play a gig of mostly LZ covers with your hard rocking hard drinking band mates.. pubs jam packed with biker types.. step on stage (well by stage I mean the sticky carpeted bit for bands) .. and you whip out a pink guitar.. 😳🤔
Are these they same biker types that paid good money back in the day to see one Mr Jimmy Page stand on stage in the infamous Pink Dragon Suit? If so then I imagine that they’d be more disappointed that you only had a pink guitar and not the matching outfit! 👚🌸💕
@@SpedSpedding I’ll mention that to them when they’re beating me up in the car park..
Need to know where location address of store near ensenAda please thank you for sheet musick
Soup or Knob? I'll take the soup!
Do you really want a knob in your soup though Dan?
The joke is a pro asks an old timer if he wants super sex...... I'll have the soup please.
Hi thank goodness we had the
@@SpedSpedding not when you put it like that Sped. Dig your channel
@@dmarlan haha thanks Dan!
Hello there, Sped . Im diggin your channel so far . I have three questions :
1.) Is your white Fender a professional II or an ultra ?
....or which model ?
2.) How does the action on the GTRS compare to your Fender ? Is it close at all ? I say no way 😁
3.) Would you have one of these in your personal collection of bad ass guitars ?
Hey!
It’s an elite with the n3 noiseless pickups.
The action was comparable. Most new guitars come with room to make it your own. You can file down but you can’t add on. Makes sense. I like a high action.
I would and I do own one. 😉 Gab has nicked it for practice at the moment.
Hi! Can you tell me the name of song at 14.46? I don't Remember...

Thank you sono much!
“Your challenge, Mr Phelps, if you wish to accept it, is to emulate Hank Marvin Apache.”
Go on, bust it for me.
Did your girlfriend help you with this vidio? Cause it was pretty good!😃lol thanks Sped😎🎸
She did not! It was all me. One man team. 🙌🏻
@@SpedSpedding lol must be all that high tech!! Thanks great job explaining how to use,,made it look like fun! Glad to see you must be feeling better, looking like your old self! You guys have a great week!!!gonna be crazy what they come out with in next ten years!😎🎸
The knob button on my guitar remains flashing the whole time while it's charging. 😢
Are you charging switched on or off?
@@SpedSpedding off. Anyway I used another power charger. Ty
Is this GTRS a twin-turbo?
I'd say its definitely a modern electric sports car with all the gadgets and gizmos.
Nice guitar… would like to see you play some Led Zeppelin on it
This guitar is so smart that it plays Led Zeppelin to me but also 12:20
Oh fcuk you are a seriously great guitarist
You’re so kind Charles, thank you! Was just jamming out here. I always get anxious when I have to play on the spot. Always enjoyed writing parts more. ❤️
@@SpedSpedding Brilliant Man I just wish I was young again and have a second bite at it, alas that's not possible but you have rejuvenated and inspired me. I might just leave you a guitar lol
Is a wonderful guitar, my Gtrs Red Metal sounds so nice, and better with the time...
The red is a beautiful finish. Iron Man vibes. Double so with the added tech.
That's funny,when I think "Super knob", I think "Biggus Dickus", is it just me ? Probably not !
Ha! What’s this from??
Monty Python’s Life of Brian.
@@SpedSpedding Yep, Monty Python's Life of Brian,Type Biggus Dickus into you tube search...!
Pink is the color of a man with a sensitive side
You made me laugh
Never tune up, never tune up, never tune up, never tune up!
😂😂😂 imagine if that became a meme standard.
Axefx3…no batteries….
As in?
You will buy me one please???
Has eart written all over it sped!!!
Actually the small print reads that you have to buy me another 3, then I buy you 1. In that order. Solid gold please!
@@SpedSpedding you always have the right answer. Genius? Or just guitar legend??? We want to know!!!
@@SpedSpedding it's not really made of gold.... that's ridiculous!!!
@@mikeball188 genius mate isn’t it!
:)
If it’s making you smile then I’ve done my job! ❤️
@@SpedSpedding yes you have. Take the night off and have a well deserved rest.....the solo to free bird tomorrow 😉
I had a horrible experience buying one of these and returning it. Big waste of my time. It only sounded good through the high gain distortion setting. Most of the guitar sounds were awful and the intonation was really bad. Customer service didn't know anything about guitars. Still waiting for my refund
Such a shame you didn’t get on well with it. I rate the fx and functionality of it for the price. Maybe the place you bought it from could take some responsibility in the preferred setup for you? Give it a standard once over before it ships. I’d always tweak myself or take to a tech when I get a guitar because I want it to fit me.
Great video but you left the plastic on the knobs I know it's your channel but I don't like it I kid
There’s no plastic left on anything.
