This video does the best job of describing the resonance characteristics of this guitar. I have one with the FF pickups and the way I describe it to people is that the sustain comes from the string/body resonance instead of the pickups. It's very hard to describe but feel that this video perfectly nails the concept (and helps you understand why!).
Man, as a So Cal guy proud to see this level of craftsmanship and innovation coming out of my hometown. I hope to try one of these out. They seem priced fairly considering what your getting in terms of craftsmanship and custom features I do however have the creeping thought about how much do we need these sub $3000-$5000 and up guitars that these builders are producing. To be spending small fortunes for a pretty utilitarian musical instrument seems a bit icky. I mean they aren’t Violins. At the end of the day they are slabs of wood with metal wires strapped across it. Whatever, I still want one 😂
Pretty interesting concept, somewhat reminiscent of a Tom Anderson electric-acoustic Crowdster. I am pretty impressed by the great feedback this guitar is getting by highly reputable instructors/players such as Corey. Of course I could not expect less from a genius such as Andy. I think I am going to get myself one of these equipped with a pair of FF42's.....Great demo video!
To add to the urban legends of these guitars, I’m from San Diego and live in Japan. There is a vibrato bar version upstairs and a hardtail right next to me. I love them both. 🎸😎

Wonderful interview and great presentation for the guitars. Question: that studio performance in the first minutes - is there anywhere a full version of it? Thank you in advance
I thought I would want an arm carve on the non bound version… but then he explained that it IS “bent back” by the arm… the pups sound good! The explanation of the hollow body design was fascinating.
at 23:30 I believe it is way more than a 1% thing. I believe you hit the nail on the head by mentioning internal vibration and I'll add surface vibration of enire guitar but top specifically, add to what vibrations enter the magnetic field of the PUPs. The combo of bracing, internal open space, and ample vibration make up the wider warmer broader (bigger) sound. I am not a guitar builder, rather, a player. way more than one percent! Ask Kirlin what he thinks!
Hey Corey. Your videos are always so informative and entertaining! Your playing kicks ass and you truly have a gift for getting great, authentic tone. Regarding the pickups on these guitars, which do you prefer and why? As I understand it, it PF’s are brighter and have more bite. If this is correct, between the FF’s and PF’s, which do you find play well with the amps and pedals you are used to and know their characteristics? Thanks in advance for any insight you can offer. Cheers, Darin in Boston
At first I was like...."that looks like a pretty standard electric guitar to me." Then....him explaining what's going in inside the hollowbody is awesome. I've definitely not heard of someone doing that before. Definitely can see the Taylor roots in that design. That Trem looks closely modeled on a Duesenberg more than a Bigsby.
Construction sounds similar to a guitar I just built for my wife. Hers is a short scale as is she😅. But I carved the back of the body from old growth ash I harvested and then capped it with a black maple old growth that I carved. It’s light and really resonant and with PAFs on it, it sounds great. Andy sounds like someone I’d want to hang out with to learn from too.
Wow! I love the tone and look and I’m in search of a light guitar! These are professional people we are enjoying here, let me tell you, when the builder said “ if the guitar doesn’t feel good, right, make me want to play, doesn’t matter the sound” Man he had me because after years of playing and going through lots of guitars I made that statement few days ago to myself, the one that keeps me playing, practicing, and inspired is the one I pick up and play. No need to mention there names,this guitar here on the video he is playing and showing has the SOUND! and the LOOK! I look forward to holding one and playing. Hey, Light guitars are the Thing and they have become that slowly over past 20 years, and that mindset is growing, when I started playing 30 yrs ago didn’t really think about it, but the last ten years I’ve searched for them,there are not enough guitars that are light. That’s also kinda a deal breaker for beginners, if it’s heavy they lose interest because they distracted by the heaviness and it can’t get comfortable.
I'm a long long way from being a guitarist - (I keep quitting and coming back and I've never managed to stick to it long enough to really build that muscle memory) but I know I love the way that sounds. I prefer the Fender Bassman sound over the Marshall - but that's just my personal taste - that guitar has such a beautiful sustain - and I love the warmth.
great video. Andy sure did consider every aspect of an electric guitar when building this! WOW. Looking forward to getting one in my hands to test drive!
Corey, great video as always. I wish I would have seen these at NAMM last winter. I am trying to figure out which pickups are better for me as I haven't heard it in person because both the FF and the PF sound great. I play lead in a blues/classic rock band. Which do you recommend. (by the way I was the guy at the two rock booth with the circle of fifths tattoo that you liked)
Hey Jack. Thx for commenting! I think the PF would be the best choice. I’ve played both and the PF sound more traditional to me. The FF are more hi fi. Great sound but, not my everyday type of thing
Thanks for the share! I have been on the lookout for a unique guitar that was well designed and engineered. As an engineer I really appreciate his design expertise and attention to detail.
I just finished watching the rest of this interview. Everything he said about the why of how this guitar is designed and built makes perfect sense - and now I understand why I will never spend $4,000 on a Les Paul.
This was interesting and sounds like a very cool instrument. Other unique guitars I could think of would be the Strindberg and some Kiesel models. Enjoyed this video.
Bob Taylor talked about Powers Electric briefly a couple months ago on Taylor’s YT channel… he’d love to see the manufacturing process get refined, so it would be “cheaper” to make. I hope this is the case, and that the cost will come down a bit for the consumer. This feels like the spiritual successor to the Taylor SolidBody, but all from Andy’s brain.
Sounds absolutely incredible... but the headstock just isn't aesthetically pleasing to me. I know that's a petty gripe... but for the price I need to love all of it.
Very interesting video, an approach to guitars as something unique -IMO any guitar is unique- and where every part and detail work as a team. In this case it is a work art too. Congrats and thanks.
I really like Andy’s very intensional method of building. It seems that he’s broken some new ground, plus the guitar sounds and looks great! I understand there’s a leather gig bag, but haven’t actually seen it. I’m kind of surprised he didn’t go hard shell being the guitar is designed for players.
I was on the fence about showing the bag. Now I wish I would have. They’re gorgeous cases and I don’t miss the hard shell at all. I never use cases personally 🤷🏻♂️
@@coreycongilio hopefully I’ll be able to see the bag at some point. Great “in depth” segment. I appreciate your style of letting the guest get his message across. You’re a pretty good interviewer for a guitar player! lol
Colors won't be such a big deal to me. Interesting style pic's ... p-90/hums; gold foils??? Sounds excellent. Pickups proprietary or designed around others ... i.e. Australian JJ's??? Thanks again!!!
How long does he expect the neoprene to stay in functioning condition? What I mean is that all variations of products that are petroleum based like neoprene, synthetic rubbers etc. have a tendency to degrade in time with the contact of air and exposure to light and they are also moderately fragile. The idea is brilliant, the video showed it in all its glory but those were new guitars. Will it still be functional in say 5 or 10 or even more years, will it be serviceable? Hopefully you wont have to buy a brand new tailpiece just because the neoprene gave out.
Who’s the famous guitar player? Personally, I never said it was the best ever. Unique yes. I also used this guitar on my gig 2 weeks ago so, tested and approved!
I don't think the comment is aimed at Corey in particular at all. But I think it's fair to say we've all seen famous players or just prominent players extolling the virtues of some new fangled guitar but never using it after that. This however is just Corey describing and demo'ing the guitar for no other reason than the interest value to other players. Fair?
@@chillidogkev Sure, I get that and thanks for that accurate point of view. Like I said, I'm actively using these guitars in lessons and gigs monthly. My direction for this channel is, I only demo the gear that I would use or, I get requests from viewers to showcase. If I won't use the gear personally, I give it away. Hence my recent Epiphone video. I won't use that guitar but, there are plenty of folks that have asked for a demo via email. I was able to secure it from Sweetwater and now I'm giving it away. Payin it forward the best I can!
@@coreycongilio Great work Corey and as I've mentioned elsewhere, your demos are way better than almost all others I've seen. At the end I really feel I understand how the guitar sounds, not buried under effects, and how the guitar feels to play. Respect that you're true to yourself in the items you choose to showcase on the channel 👍
I'm always looking for great value shopping for a guitar. No guitar snob here. Some of the best instruments can be had for $1500 IMO. This is the first time I'm thinking I just may want to spend 4k for a guitar. Very cool. There has NOT been any real innovation to electric guitars in 70 years. This changes that.
All great data... But, I suffered "mind wipe" at the lick you tossed off at 41:15.... That's just a nasty display of some sick surrounding chromaticism... WELL done Suh!!
I’ve got a few guitars, from Gibson to Rickenbacker and a bunch in between. My favorite guitar by far is my Novo incredibly reliable, lightweight, well balanced, and has sound that does that thing. The rest of my guitars if they’re not a brand they are still Gucci. They don’t do that one percent that the Novo does. It could be that the wood is kiln dried. That said, I have a jazz master that has a Kiln dried body, and neck… it’s close, but there is a little bit of a bite. Had to pick up the jazz just doesn’t . I bought that Novo and not associated with them in with them in anyway. I don’t even particularly like the headstock to be honest with you, but it doesn’t really matter because the sound is just amazing. I guess you could legitimately call me a Novo fanboy, I do like the concept of this hollow body as well.
Sorry, but almost 4 thousand dollars for this, you're not even known other than working for Bob w/ acoustic guitars!! It just seems egregious to me!! 5 to 7 hun is one thing, This is just insanity ! Show me the adddd value, if I buy Gibson for 4 grand it only goes up, not these..
Surely *this* guitar is completely different than the literally hundreds of other models available! GAS GAS GAS fueled by getting short-lived dopamine hits from lusting after gear Just get a guitar you feel great playing guys and get realistic about what actually motivates you
Different for the sake of different doesn’t impress. It’s like “how many different design features and construction techniques can I cram into one guitar. “. Drives up cost of production without making an appreciable difference. To quote Mr. Powers, “It’s subtle”. Asymmetrical radius? Wonder what it’s going to be like to re-fret and re-radius new frets - a probable nightmare. Unnecessarily overly complicated just because.
The most unique guitars I’ve ever seen usually have two outcomes: 1. Butchered whatever’s that are one step away from firewood with strings. And then probably burned as firewood. 2. Guitars that were designed to be, umm… “unique” and which succeeded, and very few bought or kept these. The most unique guitars that probably exist today? Better start checking out pawn shops, yard sales, estate sales, and dusty basement corners. Maybe even the random ebay, FB marketplace search or reverb search.
I played one at NAMM this year at the hiwatt/seeker electrics booth and it was so resonant and “ring-y”. Gorgeous color too!
Someone said they color was “not nice”
@coreycongilio I'm digging that colour (and your playing).
Colour is such a subjective thing though isn't it?
Andy Powers is a very inspired individual! I love his enthusiasm and will try one of his guitars soon.

Wonderful interview and great presentation for the guitars. Question: that studio performance in the first minutes - is there anywhere a full version of it? Thank you in advance
I second this. 👍
I really appreciated the deep-dive nerd talk in this video. Super interesting-thanks!
I love the ideas that go into this. It’s almost as if Paul Bigsby’s ideas were given 70 years to fully develop.
Very tasty solo on the intro Corey (As usual). I’d love to see a breakdown video of just that please!
Fascinating. Put Andy Powers and Paul Reed Smith in a room and see what comes out.
People might balk at the price but just look at a Les Paul or custom shop tele. Very cool instrument.
I thought I would want an arm carve on the non bound version… but then he explained that it IS “bent back” by the arm… the pups sound good! The explanation of the hollow body design was fascinating.

???? Can bracing direct vibration to a specific area in the inrnal space???
Just got one of these and love it. Now if I could just play it as good as Corey!
Haha nice! Thx!

Definitely unique. Not just a tele, strat, LP, 335 copy with different pickups and such. Like the ideas.
Man that intro was awesome
Very nice looking guitar. I dig this
Been waiting to hear a demo of this guitar sounding as good as it looks! ❤
I prefer the Sunburst model. I also prefer a hardtail bridge vs tremelo
Is it as light as a strandberg guitar? On another note, if Andy Summers owns 2 of these awesome A-Types then it has to be remarkable.
This was interesting and sounds like a very cool instrument. Other unique guitars I could think of would be the Strindberg and some Kiesel models. Enjoyed this video.
Strandberg
Oh good call!
It sounds great and is pretty rad looking. I like it.
Why rosewood fretboard? Why not ebony or urban ironbark?
Sounds like something Robben Ford would enjoy... Has that Blue Line sound.
It sounds like a cop?

Thanks¡¿~
I'm hoping for an SE model... 😅
Very nice. But you already know that I like the look.😁
Very interesting! And very cool!!
The best of design concepts. Most amazing, is a bass coming in the future.
Well, dang, that guitar sounds like Corey...must be why you got invited!
Looks and sounds great - unfortunately a bit outside my price range
The pickups almost look like rounded off Charlie Christians very cool design wish i could afford 😅 and play like Corey
And I thought Paul was crazy.
I've had GAS for one of these for about a month.
How much does it weigh?
Great question. I should have included that but, it totally slipped my mind. Stoptail=5.7lbs, Camtail=6.5lbs
