The Most BEAUTIFUL Guitar I've Demoed?? || Jericho Edge 6 NT Demo/Review
Serious question, though: Haven't even finished Gears of War 3 yet. Is 5 any good/worth picking up??
No and neither is 4
Hey Hunter, have you tried any of the Dark Souls games? If so which and thoughts on them?
5 is pretty good. I would just do 1 month of game pass if you want to check it out. Love the vids man.
I mean for the price point of 4 now, probably. I try to reserve play if the gears series for Co op :)
And finish 3
The demo song didn’t need to slap hard, but Hunter did it for us. 10/10 every time.
No slap, no bueno
Hunter: “Do something cool with the intro”
Me: *puts on the Nintendo filter*
Deym I did not expect that Demo song intro
We always see you demoing single cuts but you really look good playing this guitar man.
I wasn’t expecting to like this guitar as much as I did tbh lol
Definately one of your more awesome songs
Thanks dude!
Awesome demo song, hats off to Luke as well 🤘🏻
Tim Stokkers Thanks man!
That was my favourite demo song you’ve made yet! I know you’re a gear channel but I’d love to watch a video of you making a demo song start to finish/how you setup your rig/program etc...
Adam Cogan I second this
@@Shreddinkevin93
Third
I don't usually stay for the intro jams but this one totally caught my attention.
I can't justify the reasoning behind having a huge spoon carve when the neck joint is that clunky
Thought the same thing.
Yep. Perhaps I’m spoiled because I started out with an Ibanez and had the all access heel joint, but I just can’t play strats. That godamn block heel joint kills my hand lol
Ah yes, now there's a super strat i can get behind... its not much but its honest work :)
As a certified lumber grader Ash is the poor mans Oak. Its cheap and there is a mass amount on the market for sale. I have cut millions of board Ft Ash and it is more of a soft textured wood to me like Birch or Cherry. So there is White Ash, Black Ash and whats called Green Ash which is a mix of both. Ash does not compare to Hard Maple as far as density. Ash is an appearance wood its very appealing to look at hence forth the top on this guitar looks to be White Ash, Black Ash or Swamp Ash is even softer than white. Thats my Ash report. Great video Hunter!!
Great insight! And that softness is probably why they use it. Might be easier to sand down and expose the grain and get colored filler in there on ash than in oak
@@agufish White Ash has what we call Cathedral grain which can be raised to give that desired look. Keep up the great work Hunter, love the videos !!
Sigh and yet companies like Mayones charge like $400 for an ash top on their Regius model :(
curt wehrmeyer hey it’s not every day you meet another lumber grader. I work mostly with walnut.
@@mobilemetal4554 Cool man Im from Northern Wi. Walnut has different FAS rules from what I know. I love it when the Canadians say its a Canadian Maple neck when I ship Maple to Canada all the time.
Really loved the into track this time!
Dude, you're just killing it with the tasty riffs these days!
Love it! My favorite guitar you have reviewed!
Holy fuck your playing is amazing Hunter! I'm really impressed!
Love the clear pick guard. Why cover an awesome finish! Great demo song to!
Sounds killer, great playing ;)
Dude, you are a demigod of a rhythm guitar! I'd totally buy anything that your band releases.
I LOVE and i mean LOVE double cutaways but every video I watch I fall more in love with the Les Paul body. What is this sorcery!!!!?
This demo track is dirty af. Well played!
Those pickups actually sound really good! In some positions it almost had a piezo like quality to the cleans.
Great intro riffage. Was making me think a little bit of buckethead. The Oz is a very nice looking guitar and the clear pickguard is fantastic. I will have to give one of these a look. Keep up the good work bro. God bless and rock on 🎸👍😎
Amen Brother , love the scotch brite .
Recently bought a Vola Vasti 7-string, and I can't say enough good things about it. It "only" has a regular maple neck, but it's already incredibly smooth and comfortable, I don't know how much difference baking it could possibly make 😁
it might be cool if below the orange box showing the pickup selection you had one that showed which amp it was going through and basic settings like "Lead channel, eq's at noon"
Dude all that chug!
That demo song made me solo mosh at work!!!!
fuck yeah \m/
I'd love to give one a go
Riff Life! 🤟
How are you not past 100k subs yet?
Sweet
Awesome as usual! Just curious, why do you usually prefer single cuts over super strats?
I think that was one of your best songs at the top of the video. Either you just super nailed it on the tone, or it's an example of how spending a bit more on a guitar can improve the sound significantly. Before I get flamed, yes, I understand that there is a limit in that regards... a $5k Gibson doesn't sound 10x better than a $500 Epiphone.
I feel like that jet city amp would be a good combo with that guitar. I can’t explain it but that’s what I keep thinking 🤷♂️.
Have you given any thought to reviewing the ESP LTD Black metal arrow? I think it looks great and want to try one.
Exemplary review as always!
please review a caparison someday. best guitar i ever played
Ash top is 2 piece, you can see the grain go 2 ways right above the strap pin at 3:48 😉
Any thoughts on the tone and playability differences between 24.75" scale length and the 25.5" the Vola has? Your demo on the latter was great given that you prefer LP-based designs.
Ever think of.doing soundtrack stuff like for video games ? I could totally see this song in a pre boss fight scene
Dope super strat (play more Firebirds)
Seems like a cool guitar :). I think I paid almost as much for my E-II DB Red Sparkle Eclipse.
Wow, a Vola.
First! :) Amazing guitar, but the heel joint? That really throws me off... Have you ever reviewed (I'm pretty sure this is a no) one of the Ibanez J Custom models? If not you should at some point, they are truly amazing.
Hahaha nope I have not... I have been talking to the Ibby guys about more videos of their stuff but that model hasn’t come up yet. The AZ stuff, though... :)
Ive never heard of Vola. How do they compare with Kiesel which seems like a similar brand?
How does the neck thickness compare to your HB sig?
VOLA vs E-II, Which is better under your experience Agufish?
Anyone else get serious Lamb of God vibes from the demo song, great demo btw
Also, I really wish more manufacturers would use the Gotoh Floyd Rose. I hate Floyd Roses but it seems like manufacturers aren't going ot back down and they're still making a bunch of models that only come with a Floyd Rose. So if they're going to insist on using Floyd Roses, at least make it a Gotoh. They're so much more comfortable to use than an Original Floyd Rose.
Jackson USA soloist review?
This guitar is
_Brilliant_
Please forgive me
I don't know why... But an HH version with DiMarzio Sonic Ecstacy's with the milled covers would look too sexy to pass up.
Where can i get the demo song, sounds badass
Become a Patreon member I think.
especially with the lower horn contoured, why not go all the way and shave the heel down ?
Would be awesome if you do some solo, the riff are usually good but solo is always missing.
Anyone else love bolt on necks?
Hello
I like superstrats
Thank u
Ñisssssssssce 🎸
The one weird thing that bothers me is, They printed a f'n QR code on the back of the head stock???? That's something you would see on Japanese anime toys, not expensive axes. Just say'n 🎶🎸
Dude! We need tabs for your demo riffs!
They're up on Patreon exclusively as like a thank you to Patrons who directly support the channel :) There are suggested tiers, but Patrons can set limits (down to like a dollar a month) so it's kind of like a "pay want you want" tipping system haha
@@agufish awesome! I'll be shopping on my lunch break hahaha
If they offered this in a natural satin finish roasted Swamp Ash body with a Hipshot Hardtail, I'd be paying them for it right now... (Hate tremolos) Love ash as a tone wood... Move over Fender...
I used to think the intro was done with whatever guitar was for that video😂
I am constantly amused by all obsession with neck thickness and how the neck fits to the pocket. For 2 reasons . Unless you have small hands or short fingers then it primarily irrelevant to how fast you can get around the neck once you have played a guitar for only a few weeks.I have 13 guitars with 24 to 25 1/2 ' scales. Two have super shred paper thin necks ...others are easily 50's style necks. my Harmony H88 has a neck nic named 'The Lo' I can even shred on it. Yes triplets at 150bpm and no slop either!!!
What about SAITO GUITARSSSSSSS
hi
Sup
so do you get this guitar free for making this video?
No
The only things I can say I dislike about this guitar/model are the black headstock (wish it were natural to match the neck and fingerboard or matching ash like the body, it's really out of place on the swirl color) and the bulky square bolt on joint. In this day and age it's kind of unacceptable as there are so many ergonomic af bolt on designs out there.
Lol even Fender has a better neck joint now
One of the first here 😎
Hahaha your username is great 👍
@@agufish 😂
I dont know, but it gives me a major Meh... Great vid/revieuw hunter! Greetings from the Nederlands
I'm with you.
Personally I kinda hate that the pickguard exists on this model. Nothing is mounted to it, and it's clear, so it is doing nothing functionally and nearly nothing aesthetically. You could take it off without even removing the knobs or pickups, but then you'd have the holes left from the screws. But from your still shots it looks like they offer one that's a slightly different shape but with no pickguard and a contoured heel on a set neck--what Ibanez calls a "set-thru" neck joint. I'm sure there are tons of people who think just the bit of glossy the pickguard offers is a subtle and cool thing, but for me it's awfully not quite perfect for that price point.
See? Told you somebody would like it. Just not me. lol. In my experience scratches aren't a major issue with matte guitars. It is also my experience that replacing a pickguard that isn't a standard les paul, strat, or tele design is a pain in the ass, so if you are a rough enough player to scratch it, you'll just have a scratch on a much glossier surface where it'll be extra visible. And if you are the kind of guitarist to spend that much money on a guitar to gig with, I'll be that ash top will look really cool once it gets a bit road worn.
Vola is like ibanez but they actually have good taste.
I honestly don’t see this brand lasting too long if they don’t broaden to an import line or more affordable/accessible guitars.
I spent like 20 minutes looking into the Kadinja signature models, found 0 info anywhere in regards to ordering and when I dug through Kadinja’s IG, I found it to be $4000.
They’re a brand new company, with 0 incentive for you to check them out, AND super pricey for what they are? Yeah, pass.
Close but no cigar. I don't like the pickguard. Spoils the whole thing and also it's so thin sounding those pickups seem like junk
Interesting guitar! But $2000 ($2400 Canadian?) Pass.
I do not know why but it looks too heavy.
That neck joint isn't acceptable at all.
please review a caparison someday. best guitar i ever played
