Sabre - feel like you’d have a lot of fun with its electronics…plus, you can always get another SG anywhere
The Sabre is an active guitar - if you use the controls the way you would on a passive guitar, it sounds awfull. First tip: NEVER turn the volume, bass and treble pots to 10 - never. The switches are a bright switch and a phase switch.
Absolutely
Exact sabre IS more versatile guitare.
And pure tone
That tuck n roll kustom amp in the background is gorgeous.
I know a guy who's selling a Kustom bass stack for $900. Has a three speaker cab. That thing is 6'+ tall.
sabre I and sabre, refers tho the neck radius, no the order of production. The Music Man Sabre was an electric guitar manufactured by Music Man from 1978[2] until 1980.[3] It came in two versions, the I and the II, that were identical other than the necks. The neck on the I had a 12” fretboard radius and standard size frets, while the II had a 7.5” fretboard radius and smaller, vintage style frets. the you are correct, the red switch is phased, not series/parallel . it is the first guitar than leo and george made, after their agreement with CBS was up. -JC from Fullerton/ proud owner of the sabre II i bought in fullerton. great show . thanks
The SG sounds great, but also sounds like just another 1 million guitars out there. The MM... if you just stop fidling with the knobs... what amazing distinctive tones it can provide.
3:50-3:57 🤣
I love everything about that SG! its got the binding and trapezoids plus a Kahler for extra metal factor! not to mention that oddball violin burst. definitely an SG no one else has, and with a case that seems like a great price. Also that MusicMan is very reminiscent of the G&L F100! love the weird onboard preamp stuff, just enough to make a superstrat a little weirder
Consistently about the best guitar reviews I've ever seen ... 😍

😂 I couldn’t stay with you after you could not get the Sabre 1, well until you did. Leo still has most everyone stumped with the Sabre. I have 3!
I've been looking at that SG on the Moze website for months. Interesting to finally hear it.
I'm a simple girl. Ryan says Wiggle stik and I SMASH that like button!
You have to turn down the tone to get a normal sounding guitar on vintage Music Mans. otherwise they turn kinda weird. Once you get used to it they are a good funk machines.
That SG is pretty sweet. I tried a Sabre that my buddy had from the same era and it didn’t really click with me either. It felt kind of like a 70’s strat with humbuckers but didn’t have the visual coolness that I like about 70’s CBS strats
G&L recently reissued the Sabre, right...along with a Sterling version? Also, the two tone knobs on G&Ls are usually passive treble and bass rolloffs, similar to Reverend guitars.
G&L doesn't make the Sabre, Ernie Ball/Music Man does.
@@djay6651 I just looked into it, G&L does make a Sabre, and Leo helped create Ernie Ball as we know it today anyway
@@djay6651 Right! I guess I was thinking Ernie Ball and Sterling, but wrote G&L.
Yea music man has its own neck shape for sure. I’m not the biggest fan but the are playable for me.
Had one of those musicman sabre’s. Wish I hadn’t sold it. Great guitar and the active electronics are super useful
The SG has a locking nut. You have to tune it with the fine tuners on the tailpiece, not the tuning gears.
Only Ryan picks up an SG and immediately tests for drippy surf sounds lol. On another note, what guitars are those hanging in the background?
The High Spirits? Yeah man. I think that pink one was the one Ryan gave a love tap to. Pretty great vid
@@shkibby1 Thanks! How did I miss that vid? I really like the look of some of those.
I'd choose the Sabre over a humbucker SG any day (although the humbuckers on that particular one did sound better than average). Also, I think we are long overdue for a "rule" (like the "no Stairway to Heaven" rule that's been around for decades) about "No AC/DC just because you picked up a frigging SG!", lol. Also "No Beatles or Tom Petty just because you picked up a Rickenbacker!", haha
Next, I’m going to compare a steering wheel to a bag of sausages!
That SG sounded really nice.
I didn't get my hands on them, but I REALLY liked the sonic options of that Sabre....I also must confess my order of coil splitting guitar fell through with the "shortage" we are currently experiencing. I am in dire want of a guitar with a neat varied sonic palette. (Affordable - I am in a budget crunch).
Damn, an old SG with a Kahler? Time to put a leash on that puppy and do some DIVEBOMBS, Ryan.
I part of a minority that likes Kahler trems. They just feel different in a good way
I saw you picked two different categories . the MM is like advanced players gear . the SG is a 1 trick pony . it prolly does that trick better than any other guitar . I like both . cant afford either .
The black switch is a phase switch, the white is a bright switch. Active treble and bass tone controls. I would go for the SG, even with the Kahler.
That SG would rule. Burst, Kahler side output jack and switch placement.. I'd love that painted over white and mishandled..
With vintage gear, leaning toward the option with less stuff that can break, especially electronics wise, is probably wise.
OMG the switch click on the MM 7:20-ish.
WIGGLESTICK!
Well, only one of these models makes an appearance in Stop Making Sense, so I think the choice is clear.
the Gibson
a nice guitar but not too precious to mod if you need, the kahler is actually a pretty useable trem mainly because it doesn't affect the tuning with your hand palm muting, you can put a regular bridge and stoptail on it if you want they'll just be a hole under it. personally I dig the late 70s/80s SGs because they're a lil thicker with a slight bit more weight and different neck/body joint more solid. the music man is good guitar but might as well get a strat if you're looking for that style guitar plus it's just that wonky 70s look not uncool enough to be cool. plus out of these two even with all the tone options the SG just sounds so much better.
If I lived close by and had the cash I would be tempted to drive over and pick up that SG
Anyone knows what those 3 guitars behind Ryan might be? The pink and turquoise ones and that red beauty?
Those are High Spirit guitars, I have one on order.
@@60CycleHumcast thanks, they're gorgeous, can't wait for your review. Judging by the look of them, I think they'll fit your style like a T! OK, I just found your videos on those! I want one so bad!
Did that sg sell? I want it
hit up moze and ask.
No wiggle stick means extra wiggle room on the price
Interesting how you felt inspired to play different genres in what are effectively two humbucker guitars.
The SG has the vibe… the musicman sounds like a Tele !
SG for the win..
Sabre is a active guitare
Dont put the volume in 100%
Prefer the sabre
But sg is good
Both dope guitars but SGs are my thing!
Your playing is more tentative with the Sabre but it's the better sounding guitar to me.
G&L
I thought it was funny when you tried to tune the guitar that has a locking nut. You need to use the fine tuners can't use the regular ones
The SG! Get the SG!
Sabre , jack of all trades , master of none !
RYAN!!!!! Do a video of those high spirit guitars plugged into the Kustom Tuck and roll. Just don't drop them. >_>
The Sabre seems a bit of an oddball model, never seen one before. Right now I would say SG.
Thought Gibson went out of business.
Anyone who watches this channel, already knows the answer.🤫
Ryan ,I think your speaking personality topics are great..I don't want to be the nasty comment guy I like your channel but it make me cringe sometimes when you noodle ...I know you can play well I heard you ..just play some songs just change the chords or play it wrong key...so you get no copyright strikes.....please know I do dig your vids just not the same 1,4,an5 bluesy lick..lol..bring a looper pedal next time or play with a jam track....
Who makes those guitars over his left shoulder, anyone? They look nice. I see two more on his right.
High spirit
SABRE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
The SG sounded better to me. Sounded like the MM was muted or something.
might as well go for a soda.
I didn't like the MM Sabre at all. Too noisey in a bad way.
I prefer the SG like you.
Never mind, you said the nut was unlocked. My bad.
The music man has a lot of sounds, not much good though
The music man is made much better.
The MM looks like yet another dodgy strat copy with a slightly naff headstock. The SG, well it’s an SG..
Sg
>>> Rondo Music. . .
Unique Fade =(Nice way of saying) Looks like shit. 🤣

Unsubscribed.
my sister could play better than that lol and she 's crap at playing 🤣
I believe you.
