I got my WLP based on your recommendation about a month ago because I thought with 60+ guitars that you have if you really keep going back to this guitar then it must be special. It's the first electric guitar that I own and I love it. I am a beginner so comfort and easy playability were really important to me and this guitar is very easy to play. Thank You, Max, it's because of you that now I have a beautiful and incredible guitar to start my guitar-playing journey.
My dark red burst WLP450 is my favorite guitar in my collection; purchased because of your recommendation, and I couldn't be happier! Thank you for all you do, and thanks to AIO/Wolf guitars!
Well I have the Wolf guitar that Max gave me for winning his shred contest. What can I say? Fantastic guitar. I was so blown away by the great setup they did with super low action and no fret buzz. Really great guitar.
@strangeuniverse1 I don't think closet shredder even applies!!! Imma Think Metal Dude is a SHREDDER!!!! Just wants to play metal, too!!! I'm just sayin'... (Just Curious...Have you hidden this one from Metal Dude!?!?!?!? I 'know' he raids your guitar collection!!)
I bought an AIO SC77 in natural just a little over a year ago. It's still the most beautiful best playing electric I own. When I get a little down in the dumps, I pull it out, and it makes me smile!! Hats off to Jin and the guys at All In One!!! Now, if I could just play like Max!!!
I got my Transparent Red WLP 750t in February thanks to you, Max. Absolutely love it. It was setup perfectly and frankly is hard to put down! Outstanding quality, at any price in my opinion.
I bought a red burst WLP in January and absolutely loved it. I raved about it so much, a buddy bought the TC-1 after struggling to justify the price for the tele he wanted. He ended up telling me it was the best playing guitar he had ever owned and should cost at least $1500 based on construction and setup alone. They just had more come in stock, so I just had a TC-1 delivered this week, and I agree, it's amazing. It feels better than my $1000 "shred" axes, so I've been giggling to myself each evening playing Morbid Angel and Steve Vai on a single coil tele style guitar, just because it feels so nice. An hour ago, I just purchased the blue PRS style with the ebony and tremolo. Can't wait for it to get here - going to be a long week. Huge THANK YOU to MAX for introducing me to these amazing guitars!
Hey Max... I've had my Wolf LP for 2 years. The set-up, finish (I got the green one and it has the wolf inlay on the headstock), and service from AIO is incredible. I don't hesitate to recommend these guitars. My Charvel and Epiphone literally have dust on them because I always grab the Wolf.
I have the aio custom tobacco burst. I was ready to drop 2k or more on a Gibson and tested some out and wasn’t in love so I bought a aio custom just for the hell of it. And they had amazing customer service there was a lot of communication via email and they basically set it up just how I wanted. It came in looking gorgeous feeling gorgeous and had the classic les Paul tone I was looking for. It’s just an amazing deal for when you want that les Paul sound. The only thing better would be an actual les Paul from the 60s
Maxx Maybe you should get a digital caliper and start measuring the necks and radius in your reviews. Would be interesting to see the differences in real neck dimensions.
@strangeuniverse1 yeah agreed, I only play headless guitars, the only time I tried out Gibson's was at guitar center, even on a Gibson-branded "guitar stool" lol, the neck dive was so severe I was like, "damn this guitar is a piece of #($& ". I dunno why anyone plays one, I wouldnt play a Les Paul if it were given to me for free, has no proper balance, no proper center of gravity, weighs enough to break a back. I'll stick to headless for sure, perfectly balance. It is more than just the raw weight, it is that center of gravity or balance so the neck doesnt dive. The fretting hand should not have to continually "re-adjust" the position of a guitar on the lap or the shoulder strap because a guitar keeps 'sliding down'.
I already own a 2020wlp in blue but god damn is this black one sexy. As far as the sound goes it’s on par with my gibson Les Paul. I can blind test it and I could barely hear a difference. Also when epiphones are on display sometimes they have sharp fret ends some buzzing notes. It’s nice that a smaller company individually sets up these guitars before going out to the player.
My kids bought me the AIO SC77 a couple years ago and I absolutely love it. I have a lot of guitars including a couple PRS guitars. My son is a great blues guitarist and he said he thinks it plays the best of all of my guitars. I go to it often.
I bought the red burst aio sc77 last year and it is a phenomenal instrument for the money. Easily as good as a guitar twice the price. The setup out of the box was as good as it gets. Absolutely the best fretwork I've seen. It is heavy as hell like a traditional les paul so it's not my main work horse, but I use it for rhythm and chording based songs and for anything with alternate tunings. Pairs great with the boss Katana 100w amp.
Blow my mind how incredible these guitars look. I love every single color finish they have on their site. The inlays look awesome too. I really wish I could play one to see how it feels
I have the same black burst wolf with emg retro 55. I traded a epiphone lp pro. My wolf blows the epi away. Max is right the neck is so comfy and plays super smooth and fast.
Bought one of the Red Burst 750T LP's last year and it is a fantastic guitar!! Just stunning looking and plays like a dream. The setup they do is top notch. I'm drooling over that Black Burst Max, that thing is nice!!
My purple one just came yesterday and its nearly flawless with minimal finish flaws. There is one small finish spot but other than that its a perfect guitar! I love how thick and chucky it is. The setup is perfect too with minimal fret buzz and the guitar was shipped with lots of care in a nice case. Thanks for recommending this guitar, I plan on buying more.
China, Indonesia, India and other countries are getting much better with their QC lately, and they're putting out some really nice guitars for the money. 🎸
@@cleopatra308 Thanks! The pickups are more modern/highs sounding. Also the guitar is about 9 pounds. The purple is also a tiny bit darker than what they show in their pictures but it looks great in bright places because the purple comes out more with more lit places. Make sure you buy it with a case because you are getting a super nice case thats worth like 140 dollars for only 50 dollars. Its a super tight fit though since the guitar is a full les paul custom thickness.
I just got my AIO gold top Les Paul style guitar with the gold hardware and it just sounds awesome. AIO set it up for me. Such great tone and sustain and a real quality guitar that can play and sound great for under $600.00, thanx Maxx for showing these on your channel, I'll be putting this axe to good use! Scott C.
Just got the 335 style AIO in blue. I was actually surprised how nice this guitar plays. Definitely worth the money. I’m sure I’ll get another one or two lol
I live in Los Angeles and after watching your videos on AIO Guitars a few months ago I took an old SG style guitar, equivalent to say a Squire, and had the guys set it up for me. It plays like a custom shop guitar now. Just last month I bought an AIO SH-335 Tobacco Sunburst, new shipment came in. I love it!
I got this exact guitar he is reviewing this past friday, thanks to the reviews from Max, they did take away the wolf scene inlay in the headstock, but is still amazing.
It was your channel Maxx that completed my order! I have the AIO ASG trans red model for about a year. And referenced you in my order. I love it! I've wanted an SG style because my Gibson LP is so heavy. These AIO humbuckers are amazing and yes, indeed, the set up is by far the best ever!
I own a WLP. Setup is good and playing is nice. Pickups are good enough. Finish is terrible though. Covered in blemishes and issues with about every part of the guitar. It started to bug me but they wouldn't take it back so I'm stuck with it. As long as I don't look at it I'm fine.
@@GuitarMAXMusic Lots of sloppiness everywhere: Pits in the clear, finish sprayed onto the binding, bubbles in the clear, sloppy/bad tape lines on headstock, lots of filler around inlays on fingerboard, headstock logo is really out of alignment and sloppy (why I think they changed it), crooked tuning keys, screwed up post drilling for the bridge... mistakes on every part pretty much, it was clearly rushed in manufacturing.
The headstock logo is beautiful and done very tastefully. The only thing I would suggest about it is that a "snake head" design with straight string pull through the nut would be better for improved tuning stability. It would also make a statement about a commitment to establishing their brand based on all aspects of quality, tone, and looks at an affordable price. Good job AIO. Even though I don't need another guitar, you're making me want to buy one. As far as colors, I don't have a green or blue guitar. Thanks
I've been wanting an AIO/Wolf since the first one you had on. The Tele with the wolf paw inlays? One day man, one day. This one!!!! Your playing is memorizing.
I’m about to turn 55 and I’m still rocking still love metal still love the classics like Zepplin Aerosmith but I also love and play Megadeth Metallica everything. I write both Christian and secular music. This thing is great for both. That of course depends on which I am Playing through., my fender concert or my Marshall depends on what type of music ,but the guitar guitar just holds its own no matter what I’m Playing. I was thinking of maybe swapping the pick ups out but I’m not so sure. Because it sounds so Great. Peace brother ,Thanks again for turning me on to This guitar.I also have a 1966 Fender Jaguar. it’s been modified with the An EMG 81 distortion pick up .I didn’t do that, that’s the way I bought it but it’s hard to choose between the two depends on Which amp I’m gonna Play Through.Doing a great service for people, much appreciated thanks Brother ,have a great day.
I own a Wolf red burst guitar that I think is simply beautiful. Sounds and plays great. I got a Wolf Tele with the neck through body. To me it feels like your playing a Strat but regardless I think only Fender makes a better one. I have an AIO SG and it really sounds great. Very comfortable to play as well. I recommend adding a hard shell case to your order because with price it’s still a great deal. Recently an old injury re emerged leaving me basically unable to play so I’m thinking of getting a AIO lefty Strat to see if I can make the switch to playing left handed. Time will tell but these brands are great. I don’t think you can get a bad one.
Max I already have 3 guitars from AIO/WOLF using your videos as a guide and im so happy with all 3 of them, these 2021 models are just killer and so many options, I'm almost certain I'm getting a fourth, excellent review! great work brother, thanks for sharing with us these great guitars.\../
Good review Maxx, it's always interesting when you show how the gear holds up over time and use. Very important to know. Keep blazing up the finger board like we all wish we could do. And keep living the dream for those of us whom you inspire. God bless.
This is exactly what matters to me. I've been playing the electric guitar for 27 years. The first 7 years of playing, I couldn't find the right guitar for me in terms of my left hand on the neck. Gibson necks were always too fat for me. Ibanez were always too wide for me, so a 6 string guitar felt closer to a 7 string guitar. ESP and Jackson were about as good as it got for me. In 2004 I walked into GC and seen Schecter for the first time. A Schecter C-1 Classic. Obviously I was blown away by the craftsman and the aesthetics of the guitar. But when I picked it up and tested it without plugging it in, I immediately knew this this brand was made for my hands. I've owned nothing but Schecter since for that reason. If it doesn't feel right griping the neck with my left hand, the brand means nothing to me. So when you mention how the neck is, that right there is a huge selling point for me. Now, I'm debating whether I want to buy a Schecter Solo II Custom or buy a AIO WLP. My only complaint, or rather, what saddens me is that they got rid of the old emblem on the headstock. I thought it was cool that it hand the Wolf inlay and the words WOLF on the headstock. I'm in search of looking for someone who will sell an older version with those inlay instead.
A really nice tone. I bought a Vintage brand Les Paul guitar it was a piece of garbage however I did upgrade the parts put in some DiMarzio PAF Master PU chucked out the cheap wiring put in an ABR-1 bridge leveled and re-crowned several frets for lower action and now it's a monster.
Thank you for this Great Video Max!!! I found my next LP thanks to this Video!!! The Wolf / AIO guitars had dropped off our radar. (The only problem is...When one of our Grand-Daughters sees, not to mention plays, the Purple Burst!?!?!? She's gonna wanna take it home with her!!! Purple is her favorite color. Not that that's a bad thing!!) You're the BEST!!! Keep on Keepin' On...
I jus got the black burst for my bday !! Jus ordered it thanks man I almost got the red burst the this black burst is crazy beautiful ..as my stage name is the wolf I thought these where cool plus I really only play Lzp guitars so this is perfect for me it's crazy on point..thank u max for showing us wolf
I've had my Wolf for about 9 months now and it plays and sounds great, stays in tune nicely also. I have developed a problem though, with the B string, second fret. It's a dead string, only on that fret even with the rest of the guitar still in tune and playable. I've never experienced that before and don't know how to fix it. Nothing is loose on the bridge or the nut or the tuner, so I am just not sure what to do. I haven't emailed AIO yet about it, but I plan to very soon... Otherwise, it's a great guitar, looks awesome and other than me dinging it like a dumbass, the finish was flawless when I received it. Also, the case is definitely worth the extra $50 bucks for those of you thinking of buying one. Spend that $50, you'll be glad that you did.
I was thinking about that Harley Benton LP with the locking tuners and EMG PAF's but its off the website so back to the quest for a used Wolf LP love that old logo
Yes, Guitar Max, you are right, but with your insane skills, you can make a pawn shop guitar sound amazing, and you can blaze, some of us for whatever reason no matter how we try can't get that shredding thing down: swept arpeggios, etc.
Proud owner of a Wolf LP-750T in Blue Burst with the Old Wolf Howling @ the Moon Logo, kinda upset they Changed the Logo on the newer models. Also, I swapped out the stock Grover tuners for Gold Sperzel Locking Tuners ( I use Locking Tuners all of the time it just saves me valuable time when I have to Restring 5-6 Guitars at a time ). I Will be buying a Newer AIO LP soon in the Cherry Burst.
First off your channel is the best the information you supply is outstanding. My experience with the Wolf brand was not so grand. I purchased a WLP trans red and it was a very beautiful guitar but on close inspection it was basically hollow. I removed the back panels because one off the tone pots had been smashed in shipping and it had cracked the knob. Inspection of the pot it was still working. They were dime size pots and it wasn't a routed out cavity it was a big hollow cavity almost like a hollow body. It had one piece of mahogany down the center and the rest was hollow on both sides I wonder if anybody else has noticed this. Maybe I just got the lemon. It did look really good but that's where it stopped.
Yes it was. Since then I have viewed several videos and I have seen it built both ways like the one I had with two gigantic hollow cavities. And the normal way of having a solid wood body and routed cavities for the tone and volume pots and the other for the pickup selector. I wish now I had taken pics of the assembly of that guitar. And like I said it was a very attractive piece.
@@greglytle1868 I own a Harley Benton L550 Paradise with the exact same "hollow" construction you're describing. Discovered it the same way you did, when I looked inside the control cavity. It's not necessarily bad, as it's sorta like my Gibson Lucille in that it's got big hollow chambers with no F holes. However, if you're buying a guitar with the assumption that it's built like a traditional solid body Les Paul, then it is somewhat misleading.
I love my WLP750T blue burst. Phenomenal guitar and the setup is perfect. Now I wanna get the new W400 TRE in blue burst they recently posted on their site!
I've seen all 3 of your AIO LP vids - my fave is the red burst. These guitars look and sound awesome. What a shame they aren't available here in the UK.
I got a w400 because of one of your reviews the only issue was that the pickups needed wax potting and more recently the nut needed replacing but after that it’s been my go to guitar
Hello from Ireland Max, liked (as always) and subbed, I just want to say that I would have liked if you had turned down the drums a bit at the start, it drowned out your great playing a bit. Cheers mo chara x
Have two Wolfs, the LP in Honeyburst and the neck-through multi-wood Tele style, and they are just GREAT! You don't get a better guitar for the bucks than a Wolf/AIO.
For LP style guitars, I have: Epiphone Standard in Cherry Sunburst (flame top). No mods. SX Calisto in Cherry Sunburst (flat/matte finish). No mods. Agile 12 string in Tobacco Sunburst. No mods. Dillion DL-625 in White. No mods. Dillion DLP-650 in Green (quilt top). DiMarzio Tone Zone (bridge), DiMarzio Air Zone (neck), coil split, gold hardware.
Definitely love the transparent black , always wanted one of the Cobra burst..lol But as I have watched many of your videos but I keep being told that of course these guitars are made with sticker Inlays etc etc etc. But I think I'm definitely going with the natural antique white with a nickel hardware... Thanks for your videos and if they are stickers please let me know..lol
Bought My Wolf guitar based on what you showed me Brother) and I am so happy with this damn guitar. It’s the most beautiful piece of machinery and wood that I’ve ever seen in my life. I got the same exact guitar that you have featured on your profile for your channel and I’ll tell you what ...if it wasn’t for coming across your channel I Know if I will ever seen These guitars.It looks great please great sounds great there’s nothing that’s not great about this guitar and I got the hard shell case gator case with it.
OK so I emailed All In One Guitar and the mystery is finally solved. The AIO/Wolf Guitars are in fact made in Vietnam. They used to do business with KHL, a Korean company they were using as the "middle man", that claimed the guitars were being made in Korea but were not. They say for that and other reasons they are no longer doing business with them and are dealing directly the factories. They say they researched various factories and found some in Vietnam that really work to meet the standards of the design/quality control guys at All In One in LA. And of course they inspect and do a full thorough set up on all the guitars before sending them to customers. Finally, they tell me that all new models are coming out under the AIO brand, but those existing now that still carry the Wolf brand will continue to be branded as AIO/Wolf with the W logo on the headstock. Apparently they are not phasing out the Wolf brand anytime soon. Like Comment Share
I want one of these in Purple Burst.. I have to get some more gigs to afford it! I owe you a debt of thanks for reviewing Harley Benton...I bought a beautiful SG and a Strat by HB and they're fabulous. And I got them before the Covid price increase. 2 guitars and a double gig bag for $350. One of these AIO LPs is next.
Hey Max. I've been interested in these since I saw your first review of them. I checked the web site and found they were out of stock on most of them!! So I checked Reverb, no luck, then ebay. One for sale in West Virginia for $400 so I pulled the trigger......OMG! It has to be the best guitar I've ever played. Smooth sound, great action and I like the weight as well. But the best part? Tobacco Burst!! Just gorgeous! Thanks soooo much for these and all of your reviews. And please tell me you have a Blues record in you someday.........
Max' I now have three all in one guitar's. # one was my tiger striped amber top with gold hardware amazing guitar so creamy A.I.O. # 2 was my root beer flavored S.G best looking one of all' ...# 3 I just got the ripper the S1 natural with the mahogany stripes. Awesome guitar's. !!! GO and get you 1or 3 . Thanks Max and Jinn !!!
Max, I would think everyone's go-to for playing 2 guitars at once would be Stanley Jordan. Stanley a jazz musician, but his playing technique is in part informed by so much of what is between the lines when a shredder plays. Presently, I am not in the market for another LP style guitar. If I were and it had to be one of these 2, I think I would choose the black burst, strictly for the novelty of owning a black guitar in this style.
I was one of the first to get the new blue burst with chrome hardware tremolo version with the ebony fretboard absolutely gorgeous I already have the Amber hardtail version with the stop tail beautiful guitar also that one has Gold hardware both just as nice as the other push pull pot is Handy it's the same as my PRS guitar both of my wolfs are w-400s
Great vid, stellar shredding! Well, since on this vid you answered my question about how the AIO compares to Epi, I was wondering if I can ask a question about another vid you recently did, about a Schecter with sustainiac, and it was in the $1300 range. A few months before that you did one on a Schecter, also with sustainiac. It’s the blue w/black pickguard, and it’s on one of your thumbnails. It’s about $800-850. I wanted to know how you’d compare the two, & if the more expensive one is worth the extra $400. (Sorry for asking on this comment section, but I know it’s hard to keep up on questions asked on older videos.) Thx much :-)
Hey Carl. It's hard to answer the "is it worth it?" questions because that depends so much on the person who will be playing it. The big differences in those guitars are the bridge, and then the neck construction. One is bolt on (the blue guitar) and the other is a neck through. They are both excellent quality.
Yeah max, i have an a i o 2020 natural a d a 2019 wolf ,they are 2 of the best , that includes my 93 gibson and am standard strats ,the a io products are a great guitar ,I havent played any better,stay in tune too ,i can play 2 hrs 20 or 30 songs ,and never tune ,i check it and its on the money!
@@GuitarMAXMusic Thanks man. Been enjoying it for about a year now. Cadillac of a guitar for the price. Keep bringing these reviews for good affordable guitars. Turned alot of my friends on to your channel.
I just order and received the same guitar in black burst. I order with the guitar wi the low action number 3. All I can say is if I would have had this guitar when I was like 10 years old instead of the piece of crap I got, I would probably be the reincarnation of Eddie Van Halen by now 😂. Guitar is so easy to play and so amazing.
Max in the back hallway is a picture and I saw the reflection of either a guy in baseball cap looking around or it was a huge pet raven. Is it a raven? Please say you have a giant pet raven!

I got this exact guitar he is reviewing this past friday, thanks to the reviews from Max, they did take away the wolf scene inlay in the headstock, but is still amazing.
Heck i even bought the Blackstar core id amp based on Max playing it in some of his reviews, great amp also.
I also enjoyed your black cat making a cameo as well :)
It was your channel Maxx that completed my order! I have the AIO ASG trans red model for about a year. And referenced you in my order. I love it! I've wanted an SG style because my Gibson LP is so heavy. These AIO humbuckers are amazing and yes, indeed, the set up is by far the best ever!
I really like Les Paul shape guitars. I bought Vintage V6 strat and totally happy with it. Now it's time for a Wolf.
i got a 335 style guitar from Aio and the setup was top notch.
Again thank u for this I have been keeping my eye on these for 2 yrs on your channel..I cant wait for mine to get here
I own a WLP. Setup is good and playing is nice. Pickups are good enough. Finish is terrible though. Covered in blemishes and issues with about every part of the guitar. It started to bug me but they wouldn't take it back so I'm stuck with it. As long as I don't look at it I'm fine.
Really, oh my ⟵(o_O)
Interesting, what sort of blemishes?
I’ve had a similar experience. Terrible customer service.
@@kma6881 ¯\_ಠ_ಠ_/¯ no shit brah ❓
@@GuitarMAXMusic Lots of sloppiness everywhere: Pits in the clear, finish sprayed onto the binding, bubbles in the clear, sloppy/bad tape lines on headstock, lots of filler around inlays on fingerboard, headstock logo is really out of alignment and sloppy (why I think they changed it), crooked tuning keys, screwed up post drilling for the bridge... mistakes on every part pretty much, it was clearly rushed in manufacturing.
The headstock logo is beautiful and done very tastefully. The only thing I would suggest about it is that a "snake head" design with straight string pull through the nut would be better for improved tuning stability. It would also make a statement about a commitment to establishing their brand based on all aspects of quality, tone, and looks at an affordable price. Good job AIO. Even though I don't need another guitar, you're making me want to buy one. As far as colors, I don't have a green or blue guitar. Thanks
Wolf makes some of the prettiest, best quality guitars out there. I mean, they’re just stunning. I always love seeing the Wolf/AIO reviews on GM.
I've been wanting an AIO/Wolf since the first one you had on. The Tele with the wolf paw inlays? One day man, one day. This one!!!! Your playing is memorizing.
I’m about to turn 55 and I’m still rocking still love metal still love the classics like Zepplin Aerosmith but I also love and play Megadeth Metallica everything. I write both Christian and secular music. This thing is great for both. That of course depends on which I am Playing through., my fender concert or my Marshall depends on what type of music ,but the guitar guitar just holds its own no matter what I’m Playing. I was thinking of maybe swapping the pick ups out but I’m not so sure. Because it sounds so Great. Peace brother ,Thanks again for turning me on to This guitar.I also have a 1966 Fender Jaguar. it’s been modified with the An EMG 81 distortion pick up .I didn’t do that, that’s the way I bought it but it’s hard to choose between the two depends on Which amp I’m gonna Play Through.Doing a great service for people, much appreciated thanks Brother ,have a great day.
I bought a red burst WLP and I absolutely love it! Thanks for letting me know about this brand
How did you order the AIO black guitar???
I own a Wolf red burst guitar that I think is simply beautiful. Sounds and plays great. I got a Wolf Tele with the neck through body. To me it feels like your playing a Strat but regardless I think only Fender makes a better one. I have an AIO SG and it really sounds great. Very comfortable to play as well. I recommend adding a hard shell case to your order because with price it’s still a great deal. Recently an old injury re emerged leaving me basically unable to play so I’m thinking of getting a AIO lefty Strat to see if I can make the switch to playing left handed. Time will tell but these brands are great. I don’t think you can get a bad one.
Max I already have 3 guitars from AIO/WOLF using your videos as a guide and im so happy with all 3 of them, these 2021 models are just killer and so many options, I'm almost certain I'm getting a fourth, excellent review! great work brother, thanks for sharing with us these great guitars.\../
I love that finish! Hello to your kitty!
I love how "Magic Cat" manages to make appearances in Max's Videos!!!
Good review Maxx, it's always interesting when you show how the gear holds up over time and use. Very important to know. Keep blazing up the finger board like we all wish we could do. And keep living the dream for those of us whom you inspire. God bless.
Fantastic sound. Love these guitars. Cat keeps making appearances in the video I hope it has its SAG union card.
cool looking guitars. liked the cat at 13:01 and 13:14
(｡◕‿◕｡)➜ yeah, I saw dat too 🐾🐈
I haven't got one of theses but I think now I will get one..especially the red flame one..the inlays are absolutely beautiful
This is exactly what matters to me. I've been playing the electric guitar for 27 years. The first 7 years of playing, I couldn't find the right guitar for me in terms of my left hand on the neck. Gibson necks were always too fat for me. Ibanez were always too wide for me, so a 6 string guitar felt closer to a 7 string guitar. ESP and Jackson were about as good as it got for me. In 2004 I walked into GC and seen Schecter for the first time. A Schecter C-1 Classic. Obviously I was blown away by the craftsman and the aesthetics of the guitar. But when I picked it up and tested it without plugging it in, I immediately knew this this brand was made for my hands. I've owned nothing but Schecter since for that reason. If it doesn't feel right griping the neck with my left hand, the brand means nothing to me. So when you mention how the neck is, that right there is a huge selling point for me. Now, I'm debating whether I want to buy a Schecter Solo II Custom or buy a AIO WLP. My only complaint, or rather, what saddens me is that they got rid of the old emblem on the headstock. I thought it was cool that it hand the Wolf inlay and the words WOLF on the headstock. I'm in search of looking for someone who will sell an older version with those inlay instead.
Love the purple DBZ in the background
Kitty at 9:49 is like, "You playin that thing AGAIN?"
So I saw the DSL20HR in the back... are you making a video on that amp? that would be great!
Dang, really impressed with how versatile this guitar is.
A really nice tone. I bought a Vintage brand Les Paul guitar it was a piece of garbage however I did upgrade the parts put in some DiMarzio PAF Master PU chucked out the cheap wiring put in an ABR-1 bridge leveled and re-crowned several frets for lower action and now it's a monster.
Thank you for this Great Video Max!!! I found my next LP thanks to this Video!!! The Wolf / AIO guitars had dropped off our radar. (The only problem is...When one of our Grand-Daughters sees, not to mention plays, the Purple Burst!?!?!? She's gonna wanna take it home with her!!! Purple is her favorite color. Not that that's a bad thing!!) You're the BEST!!! Keep on Keepin' On...
I jus got the black burst for my bday !! Jus ordered it thanks man I almost got the red burst the this black burst is crazy beautiful ..as my stage name is the wolf I thought these where cool plus I really only play Lzp guitars so this is perfect for me it's crazy on point..thank u max for showing us wolf
9:48 METAL KITTEN!
I've had my Wolf for about 9 months now and it plays and sounds great, stays in tune nicely also. I have developed a problem though, with the B string, second fret. It's a dead string, only on that fret even with the rest of the guitar still in tune and playable. I've never experienced that before and don't know how to fix it. Nothing is loose on the bridge or the nut or the tuner, so I am just not sure what to do. I haven't emailed AIO yet about it, but I plan to very soon...
Otherwise, it's a great guitar, looks awesome and other than me dinging it like a dumbass, the finish was flawless when I received it. Also, the case is definitely worth the extra $50 bucks for those of you thinking of buying one. Spend that $50, you'll be glad that you did.
I was thinking about that Harley Benton LP with the locking tuners and EMG PAF's but its off the website so back to the quest for a used Wolf LP love that old logo
Yes, Guitar Max, you are right, but with your insane skills, you can make a pawn shop guitar sound amazing, and you can blaze, some of us for whatever reason no matter how we try can't get that shredding thing down: swept arpeggios, etc.
@9:49 Enter El Gato
Thank you Max my blue burst is killer
Excellent!
Proud owner of a Wolf LP-750T in Blue Burst with the Old Wolf Howling @ the Moon Logo, kinda upset they Changed the Logo on the newer models. Also, I swapped out the stock Grover tuners for Gold Sperzel Locking Tuners ( I use Locking Tuners all of the time it just saves me valuable time when I have to Restring 5-6 Guitars at a time ). I Will be buying a Newer AIO LP soon in the Cherry Burst.
yes , i love my wolf 750 LP
i got it in white burst
i take it out A LOT TO ROCK !!
First off your channel is the best the information you supply is outstanding. My experience with the Wolf brand was not so grand. I purchased a WLP trans red and it was a very beautiful guitar but on close inspection it was basically hollow. I removed the back panels because one off the tone pots had been smashed in shipping and it had cracked the knob. Inspection of the pot it was still working. They were dime size pots and it wasn't a routed out cavity it was a big hollow cavity almost like a hollow body. It had one piece of mahogany down the center and the rest was hollow on both sides I wonder if anybody else has noticed this. Maybe I just got the lemon. It did look really good but that's where it stopped.
Hi Greg, hollow on both side, like on the top half of the guitar? This is on their LP model?
Yes it was. Since then I have viewed several videos and I have seen it built both ways like the one I had with two gigantic hollow cavities. And the normal way of having a solid wood body and routed cavities for the tone and volume pots and the other for the pickup selector. I wish now I had taken pics of the assembly of that guitar. And like I said it was a very attractive piece.
@@greglytle1868 I own a Harley Benton L550 Paradise with the exact same "hollow" construction you're describing. Discovered it the same way you did, when I looked inside the control cavity. It's not necessarily bad, as it's sorta like my Gibson Lucille in that it's got big hollow chambers with no F holes. However, if you're buying a guitar with the assumption that it's built like a traditional solid body Les Paul, then it is somewhat misleading.
I love my WLP750T blue burst. Phenomenal guitar and the setup is perfect. Now I wanna get the new W400 TRE in blue burst they recently posted on their site!
I've seen all 3 of your AIO LP vids - my fave is the red burst. These guitars look and sound awesome. What a shame they aren't available here in the UK.
Fantastic playing on the intro Demo Max. Pretty sure you can make any guitar sound great!
Another great guitar from AIO. Beautiful and very impressed on the set up they do. Great video Max👍👍👍
I got a w400 because of one of your reviews the only issue was that the pickups needed wax potting and more recently the nut needed replacing but after that it’s been my go to guitar
Hello from Ireland Max, liked (as always) and subbed, I just want to say that I would have liked if you had turned down the drums a bit at the start, it drowned out your great playing a bit. Cheers mo chara x
The red one looks great with the gold, I think the headstock looks cool, and I did like the tones. Looks like a good time
I'm getting one in a couple weeks I can't wait
Nice! I bet you'll love it.
Have two Wolfs, the LP in Honeyburst and the neck-through multi-wood Tele style, and they are just GREAT! You don't get a better guitar for the bucks than a Wolf/AIO.
For LP style guitars, I have:
Epiphone Standard in Cherry Sunburst (flame top). No mods.
SX Calisto in Cherry Sunburst (flat/matte finish). No mods.
Agile 12 string in Tobacco Sunburst. No mods.
Dillion DL-625 in White. No mods.
Dillion DLP-650 in Green (quilt top). DiMarzio Tone Zone (bridge), DiMarzio Air Zone (neck), coil split, gold hardware.
Played one of these the other day and it was excellent.Great video.
That red one is outstanding, Max, I've been looking at the same one.
Definitely love the transparent black , always wanted one of the Cobra burst..lol
But as I have watched many of your videos but I keep being told that of course these guitars are made with sticker Inlays etc etc etc. But I think I'm definitely going with the natural antique white with a nickel hardware... Thanks for your videos and if they are stickers please let me know..lol
You Just got that guitar? You bought that guitar to review? . Awesome job Max. thanks for showing Great job I look forward to more vids.
I got a Wolf W400, and an AIO relic strat, love both of them.
W400 is what I want, they've been out of stock forever. Hopefully restock happens soon.
Thanks to all of your videos.
13:03 Your cat just teleported to another dimension i guess :D Nicely cut wouldn't have noticed unless the cat disappeared ;)
Magic cat.
@@GuitarMAXMusic There it is....
Bought My Wolf guitar based on what you showed me Brother) and I am so happy with this damn guitar. It’s the most beautiful piece of machinery and wood that I’ve ever seen in my life. I got the same exact guitar that you have featured on your profile for your channel and I’ll tell you what ...if it wasn’t for coming across your channel I Know if I will ever seen These guitars.It looks great please great sounds great there’s nothing that’s not great about this guitar and I got the hard shell case gator case with it.
OK so I emailed All In One Guitar and the mystery is finally solved. The AIO/Wolf Guitars are in fact made in Vietnam. They used to do business with KHL, a Korean company they were using as the "middle man", that claimed the guitars were being made in Korea but were not. They say for that and other reasons they are no longer doing business with them and are dealing directly the factories. They say they researched various factories and found some in Vietnam that really work to meet the standards of the design/quality control guys at All In One in LA. And of course they inspect and do a full thorough set up on all the guitars before sending them to customers. Finally, they tell me that all new models are coming out under the AIO brand, but those existing now that still carry the Wolf brand will continue to be branded as AIO/Wolf with the W logo on the headstock. Apparently they are not phasing out the Wolf brand anytime soon.

I bought one of the purple bursts, it should be delivered on Tuesday. I let you know how it looks in person Max.
Another GREAT Informative Video!! Thanks Maxx.
I want one of these in Purple Burst.. I have to get some more gigs to afford it!
I owe you a debt of thanks for reviewing Harley Benton...I bought a beautiful SG and a Strat by HB and they're fabulous. And I got them before the Covid price increase. 2 guitars and a double gig bag for $350. One of these AIO LPs is next.
Great vid! Love seeing you coming back to AIO! Hope to get one someday!
I have an I-Y-V SEMI-hollow Jazz guitar which r made in the same factory nice axes as wolf guitars mine has C-N-C pick ups very warm
Hey Max. I've been interested in these since I saw your first review of them. I checked the web site and found they were out of stock on most of them!! So I checked Reverb, no luck, then ebay. One for sale in West Virginia for $400 so I pulled the trigger......OMG! It has to be the best guitar I've ever played. Smooth sound, great action and I like the weight as well. But the best part? Tobacco Burst!! Just gorgeous! Thanks soooo much for these and all of your reviews. And please tell me you have a Blues record in you someday.........
Can really tell you been practicing on fast picking ..it shows...because even when just noodling around your picking speed is right on time!!!
Max' I now have three all in one guitar's. # one was my tiger striped amber top with gold hardware amazing guitar so creamy A.I.O. # 2 was my root beer flavored S.G best looking one of all' ...# 3 I just got the ripper the S1 natural with the mahogany stripes. Awesome guitar's. !!! GO and get you 1or 3 . Thanks Max and Jinn !!!
I’m picking up a cherry sunburst red wolf guitar at a local pawnshop of mine
Max, I would think everyone's go-to for playing 2 guitars at once would be Stanley Jordan. Stanley a jazz musician, but his playing technique is in part informed by so much of what is between the lines when a shredder plays.
Presently, I am not in the market for another LP style guitar. If I were and it had to be one of these 2, I think I would choose the black burst, strictly for the novelty of owning a black guitar in this style.
Thank you!!!!! lefty here...........
I was one of the first to get the new blue burst with chrome hardware tremolo version with the ebony fretboard absolutely gorgeous I already have the Amber hardtail version with the stop tail beautiful guitar also that one has Gold hardware both just as nice as the other push pull pot is Handy it's the same as my PRS guitar both of my wolfs are w-400s
Great vid, stellar shredding! Well, since on this vid you answered my question about how the AIO compares to Epi, I was wondering if I can ask a question about another vid you recently did, about a Schecter with sustainiac, and it was in the $1300 range. A few months before that you did one on a Schecter, also with sustainiac. It’s the blue w/black pickguard, and it’s on one of your thumbnails. It’s about $800-850. I wanted to know how you’d compare the two, & if the more expensive one is worth the extra $400. (Sorry for asking on this comment section, but I know it’s hard to keep up on questions asked on older videos.) Thx much :-)
Hey Carl. It's hard to answer the "is it worth it?" questions because that depends so much on the person who will be playing it. The big differences in those guitars are the bridge, and then the neck construction. One is bolt on (the blue guitar) and the other is a neck through. They are both excellent quality.
@@GuitarMAXMusic Thanks. So the trem system in the more expensive one will be better?
Again, an awesome video man, thank you! I will definately be buying some AIO's in the future. Thanks again!!🤘🤘🤘🤘
Yeah max, i have an a i o 2020 natural a d a 2019 wolf ,they are 2 of the best , that includes my 93 gibson and am standard strats ,the a io products are a great guitar ,I havent played any better,stay in tune too ,i can play 2 hrs 20 or 30 songs ,and never tune ,i check it and its on the money!
Proud owner of the WLp450 mostly because of your review. Thanks Max.
Hope you enjoy it!
@@GuitarMAXMusic Thanks man. Been enjoying it for about a year now. Cadillac of a guitar for the price. Keep bringing these reviews for good affordable guitars. Turned alot of my friends on to your channel.
Max is straight up cool.
Great sounding guitar & playing, thanks Max!!
I just order and received the same guitar in black burst. I order with the guitar wi the low action number 3. All I can say is if I would have had this guitar when I was like 10 years old instead of the piece of crap I got, I would probably be the reincarnation of Eddie Van Halen by now 😂. Guitar is so easy to play and so amazing.
Max in the back hallway is a picture and I saw the reflection of either a guy in baseball cap looking around or it was a huge pet raven. Is it a raven? Please say you have a giant pet raven!
