    Haunted nights for halcyon days Can't sleep to the scraping of his voice Nature's way struck grief in me And I became a ghost in sickness Willingly guided into heresy Beneath the surface, stark emptiness And you'd pity my conviction Whereas I thought of myself as a leader You'd cling to your pleasant hope It is twisted fascination While I'd ruin the obstacles into despair And I'm praising death Lost love of the heart In a holocaust scene memory Decrepit body wearing transparent skin Inside the smoke of failure Wept for solace and submit to faith In his shadow I'm choking Yet flourishing Master A delusion made me stronger Yet I'm draped in pale withering flesh I sacrificed more than I had And left my woes beneath the mire

    • @geirisk8
      @geirisk8 Před 8 dny

      Yeah dude honestly, I love them. The wasn't anything inherently wrong with the stock pickups but these are just a little fresher to me with the nice addition of being able to split the coils. I think it was an amazing improvement!

  • @Joseph-R
    @Joseph-R Před 10 dny

    I love every album ETiD has put out, but Gutter has some of the funnest riffs. Kill the Music, Gloom and How it gets that way, The New Black, Tusk and Temper.

    • @geirisk8
      @geirisk8 Před 8 dny

      I totally agree! Gutter Phenomenon may have the technically worst production in terms of mix and sound quality but it is it's own thing. I loved it when it came out and I still do. I'm not even sure I would like it any more if they re-recorded it with more of a modern tone (with the likes of the last two records that sound AMAZING). But I agree, the riffs are so fun to play!

  • @BearBluesBand
    @BearBluesBand Před 11 dny

    Top tip: if you grind down the saddle to lower the action and go a little too far, you can put a little "shim" under the saddle when you replace it. I recommend the very thin hard wood strips used by model ship builders as planks on model sailing ships. Quick, cheap and easy repair. Also, they're so thin you can stack them if necessary to reach perfect action height. Make sure they cover the whole length of the bone or plastic saddle. No glue needed.

    • @geirisk8
      @geirisk8 Před 8 dny

      That's actually a really good tip, I didn't think about that but good to know in case I do this in the future with another guitar.

  • @reinbald
    @reinbald Před 13 dny

    I have the very same baritone (and the 40th anniversary Jazzmaster btw) and it are no P90 pups, they are specially designed single coils (rather JM-like) Did you notice that the string to string balance is a bit off? All in all: a very nice addition to the tonal palette! Nice playing!

    • @geirisk8
      @geirisk8 Před 8 dny

      Interesting, I didn't really read into any specs but I didn't notice anything in particular with the string balance. I think it sounds pretty cool!

  • @5uperhands
    @5uperhands Před 16 dny

    I have a Hartswood semiacoustic 335 copy. I found that the ceramic pickups were very weak and Muddy and didn’t cut through at all when playing live. I bought a set of Alnico magnetic pickups and it transformed the guitar. The only downside is that it now sounds a bit more single coil but it suits me perfectly and cuts through beautifully when playing live. Also, if you take the tuners off you will notice that they rattle horrendously. At the same time, I purchased some new tuners that Were Identical but without the rattle! Now at tunes and sounds beautiful.

    • @geirisk8
      @geirisk8 Před 8 dny

      I think that's quite often the downside to affordable guitars: pickups and tuners. They're often made beautifully with very minor flaws that can be easily remedied. I usually feel the need to change pickups and better tuners definitely improve the guitars!

    Nice review man. Love the Jazzmaster shape, but its too big in my opinion. Ibanez made a Jazzmaster copy at a time with a much smaller body, if you havent checked one of those out yet you definitely must. My one friend owns a Ibanez ORM1, its 22 frets, 24" scale, single bridge pickup and its awesome for me personally compared to the larger Fender shape.

    Thank you for your video!I just got my HB guitar today. I also find the saddle a little bit too high. Maybe i will sand it down about 1mm some day. I guess it is a business strategy to leave the saddle a little bit high rather than manufacture it too low or causing buzzing. That costs time and that would be a deal breaker for buyers. But over all i really like the guitar. It look great, sounds great. I cannot believe it a 300 euro guitar.
