- Happy new guitar year 2020 :D! After being curious about Mayones Guitars for some years now I finally pulled the trigger and got my first Mayones Regius. The last few weeks I played allot with my new baby and also recorded a new song which you can hear in my Review / Comparison video here. I hope you enjoy watching my Review, where you will hear my honest opinion after the honeymoon phase, a comparison with my other guitars, like my PRS, ESP, Jackson, Siggi Braun guitars, and some distorted and clean sounds from the Regius.
Looking forward to hear your thoughts and experiences about Mayones guitars...

sick riffs man \m/
Thanks Jerry, happy you like it :)
I have mine and it’s the best I’ve ever played. Smashed esp, Jackson, Ibanez and gibson
Fully agree, Mayones makes absolutely killer axes.
I was playing Jackson, LTD, and Solar before getting my Regius with Evertune. I ended up selling my other guitars and ordered a duvell. I also just recently got an Aviator and it's fantastic too
Sweet, a nice Regius with Evertune is something I would love to have as well. Sounds like a dream guitar to me :)! HOw does the Aviator compares to your Mayones?
@@MassiveSoundProductions sorry I just saw this but the aviator is on par with Mayones but its a much thinner neck.
Beautiful guitar mate
Thanks Yash, it is indeed! It was the beginning of my Mayones virus...already got a second one which I will hopefully do a review here soon :D
@@MassiveSoundProductions That's great man
The top cap is actually nearly the thickness of the binding (there is a factory tour on youtube that shows it being put on).
Couldn't agree more on the quality. Honestly, after getting one myself, I could not help but only find flaws in all guitars I see in the guitar stores (which are non existent on the Regius).
Best guitar I ever owned.
Tschuss!!!
The build quality is definitely within the top 5 I have seen so far...very impressive! Keep enjoying your Mayones!
@@MassiveSoundProductions what are the other four ?:)
@@alexchernikov6276PRS, Music Man, Frank Hartung and ESP Custom Shop guitars I have played or owned are the same level or even tiny little bit better (e.g. PRS private stock guitars) in this respect.
@@MassiveSoundProductions PRS is below the Mayones Custom Shop or Masterbuilt. Thise are just perfect. I've seen some wood library with painting issues on the bridge (just a tiny dot, same with musicman)
Top Mayones have no flaws at all
@@MassiveSoundProductions yes true but ESP Custom Shop and PRS Private stock cost 2x what a custom Mayones cost! So they better be good for 12-15k you can buy a van for that cash and guitars and amp to put in it. Dang it, Europeans must be rich and make too much money compared to us poor Yanks on the other side of the pond.
Nice review and playing- subbed. I want to try the Mayones and Skervesen guitars out one day. Curious to see how they compare to the custom Jacksons and Ibanez I have played and to Framus and Vigier. European guitars are super rare and very EXPENSIVE here in the USA.
Thanks for you comment Renaissance Man! I played/owned most of your mentioned guitar brands and would say they all are great for what they are made for. In the end it's allot of personal preference which one fits best to you. Personally I would e.g. go for Mayones over Skerversen, but that is just me. A Framus is a completely different type of animal, but one which i also like allot. Very well build guitars. On the other side there are allot of USA guitar brands which I like allot and which cost so much more over here ;)
@@MassiveSoundProductions you're welcome and we have the opposite problem here in the USA. Like American made guitars and amps like Jackson and Gibson and Mesa Boogie amps cost way less than say what you'd pay in Europe. Unfortunately, at this point, I want European made amps and guitars and they cost a small fortune here due to weak USD/Euro and import/export taxes and duties. Like a custom Jackson USA is about 3k and Mesa Mark V amp about 2k. A similar Mayones or Framus is like 5-7k here and a Diezel amp like 4k! Ouch. If only I worked in Europe and made a very high euro wage.
@@MassiveSoundProductions hi! Why do you like mayones more than skervesen?
@@jesusgrind1442 I just like the Regius shape so much. In general they both build near perfect guitars which are surely under the best build modern guitars I know. Also check my custom guitar comparison where you can see how much I love my Skervesen :)
@@MassiveSoundProductions and what neck do you feel more comfortable? Regius or skervesen? Do you think its a good deal go with mayones than skervesen?
Hi! I had a Mayones before. It was a 2006 mayones signature model and I sold it as I knew my PRS custom 24 piezo was better in almost every aspect. I’m now looking to buy a 7 string and while there’s no PRS USA 7 string, I’m looking at a mayones regius again but my main contender is a ESP E-II M-II seven string. My question is: between your mayones and your esp e-II which one do you prefer and why? Is the quality difference that much? Thanks!
Hi Carlos! I would make my decision dependent on the money you want to spend. You cant go wrong with either the Mayones or the ESP, sound and quality wise. Currently I would personally lean a bit more in the direction of getting a Mayones, even better build quality, I love the shape and the resell value is higher but if you find a good deal on an ESP you cant do anything wrong as well.
Massive Sound Productions thank you! This answer helps a lot!
Would be cool to see you compare a Padulka Pluto and GNG Morgoth to the Mayones guitars :-)
Would love to get one of these in my hands one day :)
@@MassiveSoundProductions like because of Gojira T-Shirt
How do you like it compared to your Broderick? I have both but I notice the Regius is built more perfectly and I notice tool marks on the Jackson, the fretwork on the Mayones is just better. I prefer how the Jackson plays and sounds though except it's so heavy. I think you can't go wrong with Mayones though, to me Regius is a PRS + ESP if I have to describe it. I can't compare anything to Aristides though, it's just way different in a good way.
That's actually a tough question. In general I would say you cant go wrong with either. I have two Broderick, one 6- and one 7-string and both are top notch and without any flaws. I like their body shape allot and they both have the best quilted maple top of any guitar I have ever owned. But on the other side it would be hard for me to play them live as they are rediculous heavy. If it comes to a decision where I a could either keep the Mayones or the Broderick I would keep the Regius. After having played it for some more weeks now I enjoy it more and more and in addition I had a chance to get another one after selling one of my other guitars. There will be a comparison between this one and my new Regius Core in a few weeks. I think a comparison of Mayones being somewhat in-between a PRS and a ESP hits the nail on the head :)
@@MassiveSoundProductions playability and neck comfort/fretboard feel is most important factor to me. If I love my Jackson USA Soloist neck, how would I like the Mayones necks? I really like jumbo frets for bends and lead work.
@@GuitarsAndSynths I think you will like it! At least my Jackson Juggernaut is probably the closest to my Mayones in respect of playability. After playing mainly PRS for some years I got more and more used to the Mayones neck the last few weeks and like it even better now.
@@MassiveSoundProductions cool then I will save up for one! I like the Jackson USA Misha 7 string model that I played so Mayones would be great. What are your thoughts on Skervesen guitars like the Raptor?
@@GuitarsAndSynths Unfortunately never had the chance to try one. Next review video will most likely about the Solar guitars ;)
Hiya, how doe it compare sound-quality wise and in general to your EII Eclipse Evertune guitar?
Not an easy answer. They are both fantastic guitars, very well build and sound great. If you want a Evertune system, get one! The Mayones is even more beauty but also costs allot more. It sounds a bit brighter than the Eclipse, which isnt surprising due to the wood differences. I prefer the feel of the Mayones a bit over the Eclipse, but both play great. You cant go wrong with either the ESP or the Mayones. If you cant try them I would choose depending on your money you want to spend, if you want an Evertune system and which you like best lookwise.
@@MassiveSoundProductions how is the neck different than an Ibanez or Jackson?
@@MassiveSoundProductions Thanks. I have a Mayones Setius 7, but really want an Eclipse 7 (Evertune).
The most Ibanez necks are even more slim than the Mayones. I generally prefer thicker necks, but Mayones are still a good compromise between a fast shred neck and a thick neck with more meat in your hand and sound. Jackson depends. I own an older Kelly which is thinner to the Regius neck and an Juggernaut which is relatively similar (also from due to the same fretboard radius)
You cant go wrong with an Eclipse :)!
Price range of these guitars in 2023 please... 🙏
Hey man do you still with this mayones ?
Yes, still a proud owner of this beauty. It's also in my latest video about the Duncan comparison ;)
Hi dude, is this your UA-cam channel?
Hi Arygis, it is indeed...great having you here :)!
Test PRS MK15
It's definitely on my list :)
Mayonnaise has never looked so tasty.
Nazgul is terrible in these. I have a JB in mine.
Gimmicks.
Alter, arbeite bitte an deiner Aussprache. Das tut weh in den Ohren. Ansonsten geiles Video. 👌
