Sean! I absolutely love that guitar! My favorite colors! I have always been in love with the ocean! I grew up down in Boca Raton by the ocean. Originally from San Diego. I’ve been in Ocala for 12 years.
Love Trey's sick vibrato technique. 👍
Between the factory neck shim and virtually flawless box it arrived in, that thing screams “RINGER”!! Any plans to spend the relatively few bucks on one to find out?
@@jamesthe-doctor8981 It was delivered by amazon, by a guy dressed in amazon gear, driving an amazon van, and there ain't no place on Amazon they can store cherry picked guitars to send out at will. I know this for a fact as I myself have guitars for sale on amazon
I have to admit, I bought a Leo Jaymz Les Paul copy and it was well worth the money ($179). Setup was spot on, neck was flat. The only thing I need to do is address two sharp fret ends.
People always say that about sharp fret ends never had that problem on any guitar I ever bought I don't even know what they mean by that anyway it's not a hassle to break out a nail file and take the fret down s hair...
Trey and Sean tearing’ it up! 🤘🏻🎸
I agree about the tone pot. You gonna put one in? Most players want it right in the guitar. It’s a very small group who don’t want it. A tone pot really does cut the high end from sounding too shrilly. A tone knob also makes adjusting on the fly easy because most players don’t sit right on their amp to play with those knobs - and if you’re using pedal/cab sim on a computer, you’re not usually sitting close to that either nor do you want to start fiddling around with apps while you’re just aiming to jam.
It’s much better for Leo to just install the knob. Whoever doesn’t want it can just remove it - most players won’t buy the guitar if they have to start installing one. I mean, people watching Scarred usually won’t mind trying to do it, but I’m talking the vast majority of players. Most modern shred guitars seem to have both a tone and volume.
Or better yet, Leo can offer two versions: one with the tone knob installed and the other without it. That would make everyone happy! 😊👍🏻🎸🤘🏻
Hey now you have got me thinking. A little cut off switch going back to the tone knob could do the same for people wanting that top end shrill, and then you can turn it back on and bring it down for your next tone you want. Now that sounds scarred lol thanks for getting my brain thinking 😂
Killer jam at the end with Trey!
I can see from your volume of patrons that you likely won't get back to me. I just joined your channel last month. My cousin is a well known guitar player. He was Ibanez first professional endorsement. I have been playing since the '70's. I have seen my cousin play live over 500 times in 50 years. 50 years and 2 days to be exact. I build also. I have absolute respect for you.
I have a Leo Jaymz Les Paul copy and it's pretty sweet. Was a sucker for the rainbow-colored one.
I want either a flame maple green one with gold hardware or a quilted maple green one with gold hardware and possibly a Floyd Rose trem.
@@patrickshannon4516 My buddy has a green flame, that's why I bought mine. I loved his. Just wanted to have a different color.
As a gigging guitarist of 13 years now for 3-5 gigs a week, I think you should have a tone knob. I don’t want to dial in my amp differently just to accommodate this guitar. Having said that this guitar was epic! I ordered one after we demoed it. Can’t wait!
If You ad a Tone to that AXE Dont set it on the Neck pick up . 13 years You know .
Ive got a Jaymz LP copy cherry burst and I like it ... Set up was a breeze. 🎸
That guitar has so many really useable sounds!! Thanks for doing the deep dive on the Leo Jaymze,!! Love it and you two jamming was great!!
That explains why the humbucker is SO bright on my FFST! It doesn't have a tone control, and just being there it takes out some of the bite? See, you can learn something, even when it's a different guitar. BUT... YEP, NOW I WANT THAT GUITAR! LOL. The coil split sounds GREAT too! Missed opportunity on a selling point Leo Jaymz. You should throw Sean a big bonus for pointing that out, fixing it, and demonstrating how GOOD it sounded!
Nice to see the holder-downer 5000 make a comeback. It's been a while. \m/
I cant thank you enough for the radius gages. Long story short, i bought was supposed to be 9.5" radius frets, and after installing them on the fretboard and leveling them with the 9.5" block, I was getting lots of fret buzzing starting at the 12th fret. After hours of more sanding block I remember how you use the radius gages. Turns out those 9.5" radius frets are in fact 16" radius. Got the 16" radius block out and almost all the buzz is now gone. More sanding later, way too frustrated now...LOL!!!🥰😍🤩😋💘😻💗💕💯💪👍🎸🎸✝☦
Glad to see you finally checked out a decent guitar! 😁
Yeah, it really is man good job! I was pleasantly surprised to say the least!
Best part is when they jammed out to your tune! 😂
Sean, you bang those 6 strings too! Great demo
Awesome! It shreds too, thanks Trey. Thanks Sean for another fine video, hopefully more people will not be so reluctant to tear into these budget priced guitars.
You guys killed it. Tell me when and where I can see you two play.
Liking that burl top with the colors. Sounds pretty nice too. Especially when Trey is shredding.
Agreed on the tone knob. I really hate this new trend of not putting them on guitars, it's a necessity IMO.
Just like coil splits IMO
I like the string through and control layout.
Roy Buchanan played a burle top Tele now and again.
I'm no shredder but that guitar is eye catchin,nicely made and just plain tasty.
Great jam! More Trey!!
sic is the word ,, that I heard....nice one...w/ kool "bucket shred" included....thanx guys , rock onward
Cool jamin' at the end... Nice guitar !!!
Excellent quality guitar
Not bad👍 there's even enough room to add a tone pot
Dang so many guitars I still want a couple of yours but gotta wait for a bit. Nice video bro!
That guitar is nice. I agree on the tone knob
Matter of preference but I'd like a solid color paintjob better... but for the price that thing is badass!
Great video Shaun, that looks and sounds really good i agree with you needs a tone pot, great playing by you both, luved it Cheers from across the pond 👌👌👌👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
Now do LJ's single cut standard lp (newer ones with the so claimed Alnico v pups)
ok
Hey Sean can you make a video of adding that tone pot to one perhaps? that would be a nice mod and we could see how you would go about adding it, wiring it, measuring where it would go and why, etc.
I did buy a Monsoon back last year...I have the purple burst quilt top and the same pickups and neck. I also bought 2 Leo Jaymz flame maple necks and converted one to Floyd Rose and one is currently being used in my black parts caster with Musiclily alnico 5's and it ROCKS. The necks are not grade A+ by any means, but they are very very good.
I'm glad you explained about moving your hands. I'm old and naturally shaky🤠
Leo jaymes alright by me, I got a tele kit with humbuckers and tremelo off amazon for 80 bucks . No fancy top or nothin .but mahogany body and roasted maple neck.and she plays and sounds sweet, Thanks again bro,
It’s hep to see two different players playing the guitar. Sweet guitar!
I have the old Tempest with the smooth but speed bump fret ends and active pickups. Also have an LP style from the same era. Really like them both.
I have been interested in this guitar. Seeing a second opinion. Has me sold. Thanks man. I trust your reviews because you go deep. The things I wanted to know? You show it up close.
The duo was awesome, guys. That's nice for the price
Great guitar and great jam and you should do more of that jaming with Trey he can wail. Oh yea i own a green burl monsoon and love that thing.
Great video and jams.
I just ordered a Scar My Guitar cap. I’m saving up for a reaper!!
One thing I like about your channel brother you tell it like it is great job keep on doing what you do
Agreed needs tone and nice push push fix!
Who the hell is Trey? Never seen him before! That burly man can play! You would never know just looking at him that he could shred on guitar like that! He falls into category of humans that I call Sleeper Shredders! Gonna check his channel out, fo sho'! Damn nice guitar, BTW! Even if it were twice the price!
Very interesting, I didn't know that you could use a push pull coil splitter on a volume pot like that. I do agree with you about having a tone pot because it does give you options and you have the choice to use it or not use it.
Burled wood looks kinda nice but, I don't care for the colors they choose for the finish.
there's no hole in the neck pocket. lol
Ok Cathy, start playing the Bass. Strait to you. Just do it. Wind a mudbucker. Put in your own Bass.
Sounds great , but like you said it needs a tone knob
I have the purple one, great bang for the buck, only had to stabilize the bridge pickup which was a little wobbly...Came with a .010 set so put ,009's which is my preference for Strat scale guitars...Also have their single cut LP style & just had to raise the pickups a bit & put on new strings cause one broke...As good or better out of the box than the $400-$800 name brands available...
Thanks Sean...
Wow! $200-$300 really gets more than it used to🤯
Hey Sean, Hey Cathy!
I just got my new set of Scarred Strat Pickups in yesterday. They look great and Cathy did a wonderful beveling job on the pole pieces. Now I just need to figure out which strat I'm going to put them in. The Player series, or my FrankenSquier.... I'm thinking I may swap out the Fender Tex-Mex Pickups out of the FrankenSquier.
Thanks for the great pickups, and thanks for another great video!
Leo Jaymz, Bex Gears, FoJill, even some them TEMU build ems well I will say them top line manufactures should be taking notes, and sweating.
I NEED THAT HOLDER-DOWNER THINGY!!!
Love it! Sounds killer to me.
I'm always learning from , cool
Very nice! Sounds real good!
Wilkinson bridge I wish they put them on Gibson’s that two piece bridge of theirs for left-handed. Guitars is a pain in the ass.
SWEET GUITAR, SWEET JAM. GREAT REVIEW, THANKS FOR SHARING ...
My Charvel San Dimas has a no load tone pot. I think no tone pot is fine with a humbucker but single coils need it.
Killer jam too.
Most excellent, eh, John Winkler?
this one looks good. no dumpster juice! she's not bad man.
thanks as always for the videos
You've done it again, boss!
Neck looks tasty , wish these had a tremelo
Sounds right out! Did you change the strings?
Great video Sean! The guitar sounds great, especially after you did the push-pull mod! I'm like you though...I just can't do burl tops. The flame one that you linked to, seems to be the same guitar, just with flame top instead. Am I right?
yep same
Put a resistor thing in it to act as a tone change
Color reminds me of a large mouth bass I caught.
Definitely a pretty badass guitar and the price is right!🤘
The Bald Shredder strikes again! He had a video where he mentioned he went to Namm and spoke to the man. Returned the next day with measurements and the works. And here it is, kicking ass and taking names. Love your mod- would a capacitor into the volume work to cut the shrill?
Pretty darn good guitar. Don't understand why they put in a push-pull pot, but didn't wire it that way?
Agree about the tone knob.
stop skipping around in the video...it had a regular start pot to start with ;)
You may just think you need the tone knob because you're using the same settings in your amp sim as usual! If all of the pickup settings are too bright, then you can just roll off the highs on the amp (or amp sim).
But seeing how that coil split on the bridge is SUPER bright, here's one thing you could do instead: add a resistor (or internal trim pot) before dumping the middle leads entirely to ground, so that pushing the knob gets you a mix halfway between the humbucker and the single coil. Look up the "spin a split" wiring for inspiration!
Burl is actually my favorite top. I knew this was going to be a good guitar, they have been working on it for awhile now. It does need a tone. I don't know why people omit those on shredder guitars. If I didn't already have too many guitars I would pick this up in a heartbeat.
Thats a beautiful guitar. Not crazy about that scarf joint
Yeah, I love my Monsoon and I haven't even replaced the strings on it. Weirdly, I can't intonate the a-string (no matter how much I move the saddle, it's always flat), but it's not off by much so oh well.
Also, push-push pots are the way to go, especially with those standard hat shaped knobs.
Bro, I bet if you change the strings the A string will intonate. lol Seriously!
Replace the nut with a compensated
That thing looks like an overhead view of a sandbar and reef off of a tropical beach...
Awesome !!!
Nice sounding guitar.
I would buy one of these if it had a tone know and a tremolo bridge.
I dig it, pickups seem better than the tempest (poo splatter) one you reviewed a while ago. That one was very microphonic and just weird pups. The Burl looks ok but an all flame top would look much better to me.
A lot of people have no idea that Gibson didn’t start wax potting pickups until the late 70s. The PAFs everyone loves were microphonic. The ones you mention here do sound bad, but I suspect that’s due to lousy wiring, magnets, and/or polepieces. The more you know…
@@jamesthe-doctor8981 maybe that's why I think PAFs sound weird and crappy, yup I love learning new things, can't know it all.
@@chadbyford2680I hear ya, everyone likes what they like, and nobody knows everything.
Nice finish,looks like a hi rez photo of the sea bed❤it
Really nice guitar!
That red sticker on the box is a tote sticker.
the reason there isn’t a tone control is because if you’re a true shred player you don’t use it at all,i know i don’t touch the tone control on any of my electric guitars 🎸having said that if they made a left handed version of that guitar i’d probably get it
Tell that to Eric Johnson, Allan Holdsworth, Jeff Beck... All constant Tone control users.
It's an easy, on stage, EQ right there at your finger tips. :)
Cool thanks
What's your opinion on a scarf joint neck??
You should have put an EQ pedal on your Guitar Rig to adjust the tone, just so we could hear it a little less bright
Hey "scar my guitar"Sean if I buy one of those guitars will you put a Floyd Rose on it for me? It's okay if its a Floyd Rose special i don't mind that. I will pay you the money for your time and labor? I trust your work I saw you do some stuff you are amazing at what you do. Looks like a really nice guitar.
The red tag is an Amazon inventory tag. This guitar was sent to you from Amazon's warehouse most likely. Which the cool thing is, that means its far less likely they "cherry picked" a really well setup one for you to review...
Do you use the stewmac saw blade for fret slotting?
Aren't push pulls supposed to be the tone knob?. That is why it's bright
They pack good guitars good.
Sounds good, needs a TONE pot!
True
Hey bud,
I was just wondering how come you press so hard down when checking fret levels??
Nice
I'll pay a hundred dollars extra for one with a Floyd Rose on it doesn't matter if it's a Floyd Rose special...
But Floyd Rose wouldn't agree to this, haha.
@@LeoJaymzadministrator sure he would he doesn't mind what will make him more money he gives the right to any producers of guitars., it's only going to make him more money so why not that's why Floyd Rose are almost on any kind of guitar you can buy. That man isn't in the business of turning down money and customers trust me he will take whatever he can get. I'm interested in it if it's possible. And anything is possible so I'm told. I'm thinking about doing it myself to a cheap guitar that way if I mess it up no big deal. Talking about like a hundred dollar guitar though that way I'm not out a whole lot if it fails
@leojaymz You don't need Floyd's approval lol
@@LeoJaymzadministratorlicense it!
I'm thinking the red tag guitars only go to UA-camrs. But you should put a tone pot in it, Sean!
Good shredder.
