20:00 C'mon Ola... Haven't you heard about the Abraham Joshua alien and his chinese boothbabes bent on taking over the world? Well, actually, he's an american luthier... en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Abraham_Wechter
I used to talk to Perry Ormsby on a guitar forum before he started his guitar brand. That was about 15 years ago. I remember when he became a full luthier and started the Ormsby brand. It is amazing how far he has come.
I love ormsby and I love ola, this wholesome bromance was a good way to start the day. That new natural finish and the single cut with the flame top are just gorgeous guitars.
Honestly, Solar Guitars are some of the best playing guitars in the price range. I mean, Fender/Jackson Guitars is also making some very good guitars as well, but the humbucker and split coil tones that I get out of my Solar Explorers lend themselves to being extremely versatile giving you a pleasurable ear fuck. Very good work, Ola.
Thanks for signing my new Solar guitar,Ola, got it home and spent some time learning about the Evertune and after figuring it out I’m convinced it’s amazing!
Sharing a booth with perry would have been AWESOME!!!!!!!!!!!! meet the bloke a few times here in melbourne australia and he always had ideas about the lefty guitars id like to buy/make. Hopefully ill get to meet you one day ola......i missed you in melb this year but im hoping maybe one day in the future...
Brilliant Ola!! 👍 the booth looked awesome! It’s easy to see that Solar Guitars just continues to grow and grow , can’t wait for the day you start bringing out your own custom shop guitars . Thumbs up buddy and all the best for the future 🤘
i really like how you smaller guitar brand guys are basically a big family and treat each other with respect, imagine a gibson exec hanging out with a fender exec all week
wow,,thanks for this,,it is awesome to see just how free and happy people are in a country i have so many perhaps missunderstood preconceptions about,,fantastic ,,i'm going to share this
Those Ormsby guitars are nice but looks like a weak head stock, little bump on stage and it would snap! Biggest smile I have ever seen you have @ 6:22 =)
Good luck breaking the headstock halfway up it. Almost all breaks occur at the beginning of the headstock. The Ormsbys are maple, scarf-jointed and have volutes.
Vixen Vendetta thanks for your concern but I can assure your that the headstocks are stronger than most out there (perry’s explained the math online in the past) and of the thousands we’ve shipped worldwide, none of them have broken or received damage due to construction. ✌️hope you get to try ours out!
Feverishly awaiting your new lineup of V1's. My checkbook is awaiting. For some reason the 6 string Evertunes disappeared. Hopefully they come back.hmmm? Hmmmm?
I was in the same mall with that karaoke booth. Shanghai is great, really love the cities. To bad with the censoring and google not being a thing, but beside that i loved it. The food, the candy, all stuff tea related and how clean it all is and open towards everyone. Even thought its funny they call us eastern people "long nose", lol.
Damnit, had I known Ola was there... Me and my buddy got there on the last 2 days and he made a bee line to the guitars and I made a bee line to the wind instruments. There were absolutely ZERO hot girls in the saxophone hall, in china jazz= zero hot girls. Playing for a Chinese audiences was like playing for trees, they are dead silent and just stare, take a million phone pics and then clap. Respectful, but so quiet. Those crabs are a huge thing in China, fall is their big small crab season. They really dig the orange crab eggs when you pop the shell off. A rare find, chinese person with a western sense of humor. The white "sperm" LOL, was actually crab blood. Chinese have the weirdest conceptualization of western names. I met 2 guys at the gym named Porsche and Mercedes, they chose those western hooker names because those are fast cars that attract women.
The old lady looking at you was spectacular. I love the way Asians look at strangers. They look at strangers the way I look at people who wear toilets on their head and it's hilarious.
the day i see a solar v black with more classic round shaped spikes, 48mm nut width, 6 string beadgb string set, seymour duncans or emg´s and a floyd rose 1500...aaand hrmhmhhm a dean style headstock....i´ll buy it in a second ;P. but anyway nice video and nice guitars
My next guitar I'm going to buy is 1 of your Solars love the look and sound! Not sure which model I want yet I have to decide but that's always hard! As of right now I play all Shecter and I'm in the middle of a custom build im doing myself. I'm going for a mix between the Hellraiser and Apocalypse! (My own design) Its turned out great so far I'm almost finished the shaping it. Oh and its a neck through monster made from cherry, pine and oak.
You’ll find that peoples principals end where their wallets start no matter how big they talk. (Inb4 people start @ me I will preface by saying I don’t know ola’s principals to really justify if it applies to him. my comment is more directed at hollywood,politicians and businesses etc)
Ola, next time in SH, hang out with us, your fans and people who lived here for a very long time and who'll take you to some nice SH places :-) those bottles are 0.6 L.
"You eat the sp*rm, you have MORE sp*rm!" - Old wise Chinese man EDIT: Made the comment and apparently it was deleted instantly for containing that word (without self-censorship). Great. We have now arrived at a point where words that COULD be used in a offensive way are censored by default. I guess that I will now have to find another platform to discuss my interest in sp*rm whales...
Ikr, I can't even curse without my comments being deleted on certain channels. What ever happened to freedom of speech? Did China put it in a labor camp?

Hey Ola, you should consider some serious food blogging some time eventually... Every time you shoot food in your VLOGs, I eventually stop viewing your vids and end up at the kitchen, haha. Ain’t that another talent you have?!! Cheers to THE Crab btw!
Check it out! New VLOG!
Hi Ola,
What's the intro song ? Feared ?
20:00 C'mon Ola... Haven't you heard about the Abraham Joshua alien and his chinese boothbabes bent on taking over the world?
Well, actually, he's an american luthier... en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Abraham_Wechter
Ola, very cool video man, hey how do I become a paying member... an get a chance at the giveaway you after you try out new gear. Thanx man
How did it feel to be the tallest man in China?
Ola Englund Kan ni inte göra Solar guitars med Floyd Rose på?
"It's Crab Sperm"
"Oh, perfect."
I've ate worse, like Burger King
I wonder how long until we see knockoff solar guitars on AliExpress.
Soulja Squier incoming
Perhaps called "Zolar" guitars :-)
saw one on ebay few days ago lol
😔 just cause some of us were thinking it.. doesn't mean it has to be said.
Happened to my uncle, they decided to stop manufacturing in China. = /
I used to talk to Perry Ormsby on a guitar forum before he started his guitar brand. That was about 15 years ago. I remember when he became a full luthier and started the Ormsby brand. It is amazing how far he has come.
Coffee with Keith Merrow maybe? Would love to see that.
OH DAMN YES !
I've been asking for this on every coffee with Ola episode!
Very cool to see Lisa-X there, she is amazing!
Incredible how big Ormsby guitars is getting I remember when they used to run build workshops in Perth.
Quetzalcoatl yes!!! I bought a bunch of book matched curly maple tops directly from Perry...
I love ormsby and I love ola, this wholesome bromance was a good way to start the day.
That new natural finish and the single cut with the flame top are just gorgeous guitars.
He’s in Texas
Then he’s over there
Then he’s over there
And then CHINA 🇨🇳
AND THEN HERE
Ola the new Slash!!!
He's everywhere!!!
South park reference!
Honestly, Solar Guitars are some of the best playing guitars in the price range. I mean, Fender/Jackson Guitars is also making some very good guitars as well, but the humbucker and split coil tones that I get out of my Solar Explorers lend themselves to being extremely versatile giving you a pleasurable ear fuck. Very good work, Ola.
“I don’t have any hands, I’m filming” then shakes another guy’s hand immediately after LOL 😇
The camaraderie between the brands is how businesses should be. Thanks Perry for helping out mah boi.
Thanks for signing my new Solar guitar,Ola, got it home and spent some time learning about the Evertune and after figuring it out I’m convinced it’s amazing!
Ormsby in the same booth. Have 3 Ormsbys, great guitars.
evilution 😍
Ola, you live quite a life man! You've worked hard for it, and I respect what you've accomplished. Love you work.
Hey Ola, I had the same reaction when she shredded through Scarified
Ola the famous one. Getting the recognition you deserve my man. Good looking booth bro. Take it easy brother. Cheers from Pakistan.
My man... the frozen Lego set though!!! My daughter would flip!!!
3:13 - What's up, young chinese Necrobutcher?
"I'm supposed to perform in 2 hours, so I'm at a coffee shop." Words of wisdom.
What a great timing to go to C H I N A. Land of the Free-ish.
Hell yeah, just placed an order for A2.6TBR.....looks so awesome, fell in love at the Instagram.
8:55 hangover shades ahhahs "oh I really don't drink" regards drunk Ola
Sharing a booth with perry would have been AWESOME!!!!!!!!!!!!
meet the bloke a few times here in melbourne australia and he always had ideas about the lefty guitars id like to buy/make.
Hopefully ill get to meet you one day ola......i missed you in melb this year but im hoping maybe one day in the future...
The Jackson Charvel booth looks sick!!
Brilliant Ola!! 👍 the booth looked awesome! It’s easy to see that Solar Guitars just continues to grow and grow , can’t wait for the day you start bringing out your own custom shop guitars . Thumbs up buddy and all the best for the future 🤘
15:14 Me every time I hear Ola play a juicy riff.
"Ola in China" or "I threw my kid's LEGO'S in the trash 'cause they didn't clean their fvcking rooms".
That Psycroptic t-shirt at 10:06 \m/. Hey Ola, is Vola a new Solar V model nickname hahaha.
An Ormsby and Solar booth is a dream come true. A multiscale E series would be a dream come true
Working hard,,,playing hard,,,,,,,all good OLA!!!fun vid to watch!!!!all quality booths,wow.😯peace,land o' lakes,wi.usa.
I'm really stoked by how nice your booth space was there in Shanghai!
i really like how you smaller guitar brand guys are basically a big family and treat each other with respect, imagine a gibson exec hanging out with a fender exec all week
have you seen new south park episodes?)
They've been to china too)))))
Ola the multi-culture-er! That Gieger artwork on that hesu cab, pretty sweet!
The contrast in noise at the jumpcut at 11:15 really made me realize how exhausting conventions can be
Wow dinner with Alex. He's a killer player.
One thing I don’t like about China is that in Chi-[*CENSORED*]
It not China, it them damn Mongorians
wow,,thanks for this,,it is awesome to see just how free and happy people are in a country i have so many perhaps missunderstood preconceptions about,,fantastic ,,i'm going to share this
Felt the exhaustion. Nicely timed out. Thanks for sharing.
"Chug is Life!!" I see you!!!
It’s 1:33 a.m. here in Mexico and I just saw your notification, I’m not sleeping till I watch the whole video, love you Ola!
Love your travel vlogs. Thanks again for taking us along.
You *do* have perfect skin, Ola. That's why we want see your morning routine _and_ a GRWM video.
In America we call those kind of shows Expos! and they are exhausting.. looks like you were well takin care of!
Some of those guitars would make nice toilet seats.
Those Ormsby guitars are nice but looks like a weak head stock, little bump on stage and it would snap! Biggest smile I have ever seen you have @ 6:22 =)
Good luck breaking the headstock halfway up it. Almost all breaks occur at the beginning of the headstock. The Ormsbys are maple, scarf-jointed and have volutes.
I do not know anything about them. headstock looks pretty thin. Thanks!
Yeah, that's a non-issue.
Vixen Vendetta thanks for your concern but I can assure your that the headstocks are stronger than most out there (perry’s explained the math online in the past) and of the thousands we’ve shipped worldwide, none of them have broken or received damage due to construction. ✌️hope you get to try ours out!
Thank you, I am looking forward too it =)
Feverishly awaiting your new lineup of V1's. My checkbook is awaiting. For some reason the 6 string Evertunes disappeared. Hopefully they come back.hmmm? Hmmmm?
I was in the same mall with that karaoke booth. Shanghai is great, really love the cities. To bad with the censoring and google not being a thing, but beside that i loved it.

Welcome back !! Thanks for the video
That Charvel display was wicked!
5:37 Best advertising right there !!
Damnit, had I known Ola was there... Me and my buddy got there on the last 2 days and he made a bee line to the guitars and I made a bee line to the wind instruments.

Ola you're such a genuine and fun guy, thank you for being great!
the day i see a solar v black with more classic round shaped spikes, 48mm nut width, 6 string beadgb string set, seymour duncans or emg´s and a floyd rose 1500...aaand hrmhmhhm a dean style headstock....i´ll buy it in a second ;P. but anyway nice video and nice guitars
18:30 I knew she was going to be badass, but "Scarified" by Racer X was a pleasant surprise!
very happy for you ola,you looks like a honest working solid dude. cheers from spain.
Yet another great vlog from Ola and his travels afar. Bad ass dude.
Ola's vlogs are the highlight of my days sometimes
My next guitar I'm going to buy is 1 of your Solars love the look and sound! Not sure which model I want yet I have to decide but that's always hard! As of right now I play all Shecter and I'm in the middle of a custom build im doing myself. I'm going for a mix between the Hellraiser and Apocalypse! (My own design) Its turned out great so far I'm almost finished the shaping it. Oh and its a neck through monster made from cherry, pine and oak.
Its amazing how when it comes to getting paid nobody has a problem with tyrannical governments
You’ll find that peoples principals end where their wallets start no matter how big they talk.
(Inb4 people start @ me I will preface by saying I don’t know ola’s principals to really justify if it applies to him. my comment is more directed at hollywood,politicians and businesses etc)
Lebron sucks.
Never left a comment but I’ve been a fan forever bro. Six feet under is still my shit.
Hey Ola, I love your videos thanks so much for the inspiration. What are your thoughts or opinion on Jason Becker’s material old and new?
That white fanned fret V is sick!
Damn those are some really nice looking guitars
Great video Ola
Did you get to meet Winnie the Pooh?
He forgot to bring honey 😞
@@ChunkyPuke4me Oh bother.
"this video has been removed"
Steven Tyler was there?
It’s weird waiting for an airplane in Shanghai and looking out at the planes and then boats behind them.
Cool to see Perry...hes building me a hyper gtr..hello from Perth :-) and thanks 4 sharing Ola 😎😎
Cool! My guitar is the last one in the shot of that floor glass case, the olive green Charvel at 17:31.
Ola, next time in SH, hang out with us, your fans and people who lived here for a very long time and who'll take you to some nice SH places :-) those bottles are 0.6 L.
"You eat the sp*rm, you have MORE sp*rm!"

THE video I was waiting for!
Ola, you're the best "vlogger" in the YT game! ;)
U just told 30k people about a guitar brand I’ve never heard of . Mission accomplished
In China don`t exist some words like ``Sorry``, ``Excuse me``, ``You are welcome``, etc.. but is a great country
The guitars are beautiful, wish solar made a bass like that red v! 😭
Awesome Vlog man !! Good job !!
Ormsby, Schecter, and Solar my 3 favorite geetars dad
Mr Englund ;

That Jackson booth was impressive 🤯
9:57 That dude walking passed cracked me up ;)
Glade you made it back safe and thanks for sharing the trip
That Vai style guitar is pretty sick
I lived in China for several years, and especially at first, it's very tiring to be there. And yes, really loud in general.
That girl at 18:31 was awesome. Her playing reminds me of Protest the Hero. Oh, and Ola, you don't usually buy presents for your kids?
Looks like china’s version of NAMM
Dude that wall of solar guitars would look nicer if it had a left handed V 🤔 lol
China and japan are fucking beautiful places dude. Its sick i get to live my dream vicariously through you bro 🤘🤘
10:16 Ola visit his new animatronic sales convention demonstration unit to approve the booth-top install/display.
Another awesome vlog ola, keep it up :)
Guitar God up on the podium!!
It quite suits you, Ola
You nail the pronunciation of Shanghai correctly Ola.
It was an amazing Vlog man , Thanks for sharing 😉🤟
Bruh you need a coffee with alex hutchings, i was very surprised when he showed up
Damn, what a kickass booth !!!!
That green color you liked, would look awesome distressed on one of your Solar guitars with black hardware.
那天很开心见到你！
That Green and gold Guitar was sick!
Rooster 7six Balaguer Guitars man. So sick. Just pre-ordered one myself!
@@buildingskyscrapers Hell yeah! Congrats! Let me know how you like it! They have cool shapes. Been wanting to try one.
Thanks man! This will actually be my 4th Balaguer... 😬 they are incredible guitars, especially for the price.
Man...Ola is so fucking cool! What a good mate.
