    I like the cut of Guild's jib. Great value, tries to plough its own furrow, looks good, sounds even better. Hope it does well for them.

    Had me at the bridge pickup. Between this and the M-20, I’m quickly becoming a Guild guy.

    Good video Chris! Just picked up the hss for $249 used. Couldn’t be happier!!

    Cooper could make a 1-string canjo sound great! 👍

    The sticker on my Surfliner says it was made in Indonesia. It seems to be adjusting well to life in Southern Arizona and I am very happy with it. I usually play it straight into a Squier Champ 15GR.

    That demo was cool. The guitar passed the test of what I like to listen to. Nice color too.

    The switches make sense, more precise. And 2 knobs instead of 3 or 4 (!). Dig the Alnico 2's with the longer string scale :-)

    I love your reviews. Alamo is becoming my go2 channel for gear stuff. Change nothing and keep up the good work!

    Great playing as always, Cooper. This guitar punches above its weight. Sounds much more expensive than it is.

    $269 on Reverb. How do you beat that? Sounds sooo good at that price point.

    I get that you guys are pushing product, but you also push information. And that's why I keep coming back. Thank you Cooper and Chris.

    It kind of has some baritone like tones, and I like it. I've been liking the stuff Guild has been putting out lately. I've been considering a X-175 Manhattan Special, but this is cool too.

    This looks like a great guitar for anyone looking for an affordable HH guitar with some Jazzmaster vibes. I see these are on sale now. Very tempting.

      @dannoall8427 4 місяці тому +1

      Yeah, I took the bait and bought one. Needed a set-up pretty badly, but once that was dialed in this thing kicks. I can't stop playing it. Surprisingly great tones from these pups.

    That does sound nice, and unique. Shame about the gargantuan body.

    • @ue4058
      @ue4058 11 місяців тому +1

      People seem to perceive them as such, but they're not big. The body is the same size as a Jazzmaster.

    This is a pretty cool looking guitar. Does it come in additional colors? I don’t know because that’s one thing you need to add to your videos. Also, you should definitely make sure that you cover the next shape. I watch the Alamo videos for the tone and play through but now Ive got to watch another video for color options and neck shapes.

    I liked the sound of that electric guild guitar. When they were talking about that guitar & it didnt say where it was made, i have a 52 year old Dana electric that also didnt say where it was made.

    Just got one new for $255. Liking it but the pickups don't sound nearly as good as in this video. Stock strings. Playing through a Boss Katana MKII.

    • @jacobmerritt4921
      @jacobmerritt4921 4 місяці тому

      Playing through a Katana may be the reason for the sound not being as good.
