The Guitar Pit is a channel dedicated to 100% honest, detailed reviews on new and used guitars and gear. All opinions are my own, and all reviewed gear has been purchased by me -- not supplied by any company. If something sucks, I'm going to tell you. If you're looking for up-close detail on fit, finish, specs, and quality, with a little mediocre guitar playing thrown in there, you've come to the right place.
TRUEMAN CUSTOM 7T Guitar Review: Galaxy Brain Guitar
Checking out my good friend Hercules's guitar from Trueman Amplification and Guitars. They made me an absolutely mind-blowing Custom 7T model with a finish straight out of Ragnarok. And no, this isn't some import shill review -- I 100% believe in this brand and my opinions are not swayed by this lovely gift. This is absolutely top tier, and fully recommend them as an incredible custom shop and build experience. I do not accept payment for reviews, nor am I interested in reviewing cheap guitars I do not care about. You can see his shop on Reverb here: reverb.com/shop/irakliys-shop

Let's Buy A Guitar: Episode 51 [Sorry about the audio!]
Hello dear, thanks for the video with the detailed explanations of the guitar. I would like to know if the bridge is fixed? I noticed that when I changed the strings I couldn't move it and I don't want to use too much force so as not to damage the top. I don't know if the previous owner glued it or if it comes glued? Greetings and thank you very much if you can help me. Greetings from Buenos Aires, Argentina
Would be great if this channel came back some day.
Its either a Tung oil finish or a satin varnish.

I need the last one. Especially.
Did you sell it?
Hi, I have a question, which guitar is better to buy, because of built quality? I like 3 brands IBANEZ RG Series , Schecter and well the KIESEL too Ibanez and Schecter have cheap models, but I don't know about the Kiesel cheap models these guitars are expensive.
cool dude but why did guy like you get alexi signature?
What a clown.
1:35 Aaaaa WRONG
Off the top I believe I heard that neck joint improves resonance
Brazilian Rosewood tops cannot be taken out of the US without an approval permit. It is basically the only wood for finished instruments that CITES still bans. If you don’t intend to leave the US it’s a beautiful wood. I had to return mine due to shipping it to Japan. It is engraved on the back of the headstock to not be sold outside of the US. Although the odds of some custom official looking at one is slim, I wouldn’t chance having my $5k guitar confiscated. Just FYI. I ended up with a lovely Tiger Wood maple cut.
They sound AMAZING, play AMAZING, are AMAZING but they look SO BORING and un-sexy, at least for me 🤣🥲
Hi can you tell me please what size frets East coast guitars use?
Nice job!!!! I guess I didn't know Supro from Shinola
Tones not tested, so it seems most reviewers are strictly rockers, unfortunately not a comprehensive test
Good review. No mention of the nut though…Ken Parker is a master luthier and should and probably will be remembered as such. This is an amazing guitar!
Man I miss these video´s.. hope you come back soon :/
Maybe dont drop the guitar and it wont break 😮 İ would use it with care
These are very good.
Going to look at one today. It's a 2020 model for 500.00
This clown has no education and cannot play for shite.
man maybe you should stop worrying about buying guitars and start practicing.
You cant compare pick ups those pick ups are 20 plus old also a lot of the pickups in the e series are American also you should have compair to an American mid 80s fender OH no they hardly made any due to qualify of the workmanship
This guitar is same as Vintage V100 AFD Paradise minus Wilkinson hardware and head logo and shape...otherwise is the same to the bones....and woods.
Great and honest review - thanks
For that amount of cash, I would have bought an Ibanez RG 8570 J Custom. The grandaddy of all super strats
As many of said, it was a $10,000 guitar that the company was selling for $3000! Mine is exactly like yours! I also had a natural solid mahogany! That one actually played a bit better for whatever reason. Looking for a Supreme now!
But again You shouldn’t be comparing a guitar that is mass produced against a custom made
Great video! I just can not digest that tuning it defeats all melodic elements from music , Kiesel guitars are beautiful but the price not so much
spot on review! other reviewers of this guitar don't know what they're talking about.
I’ve seen so many Kiesels on Reverb that have sat forever because the colors are just too cartoonish. Props to Kiesel for building whatever you may want even if it’s a bad idea but yeah there some really ugly choices out there. What’s up with all the Pink guitars? I must have missed that fad.
love mine, got it with one tone knob and HSS setup
Love the Modest Mouse riff during the intro
Do you still own it?
I love these guitars and I think they are great.
Nah - get another Japanese brand strat - for example Fujigen, or Bacchus. WAAAAY better. (ive got 7). Just sold off my last Fender yesterday - NEVER again!
I have the exact universe, most badass guitar on earth
It's a Prestige. If in doubt, you can tell by what it comes in - Prestiges come in hardshell cases, Premiums come in gigbags.
Can we take it higher?
very cool! defiantly up there with the modern eagle v in terms of versatility . i have modern eagle v wood library on the way.a 2024 model with mahogany body, a crazy faded blue jean quilted maple top,a insanely flamed roasted satin finish maple neck and a zircote fretboard with abalone birds and a stunning brown/burgundy case. never thought i would be able to get a prs but here we are...can't wait!
move the strap button to the front side and it won't poke you in the chest.
Just sold a guitar on Reverb and what I learned is to take lots of pictures of the guitar and after it’s in shipping box. Also, Make a video of every function working just prior to boxing for shipment. Buy shipping insurance. The guy who got my guitar contacted me the day after receiving and said certain things didn’t work. I put in for a case with Reverb, but he wanted a partial refund. So I decided it wasn’t worth the hassle and sent him the partial refund. Then the next day the guy said he was wrong and wanted to refund to me the refund. Glad he was honest! But there is no way I know of for a buyer through Reverb to refund the seller a refund he gave the buyer. So he said he would send it through PayPal. Still haven’t received it yet, but that was just yesterday so? Anyways, from now on with me I am sticking to selling my guitars on Marketplace or Craigslist! I sold the guitar for $925, and am only getting $677 for it after all the fees, not to mention the hassle!
No offense but a valuable guitar will sell itself. Other wise your in for a long wait. Dealers have taken over reverb in resent years and they're all out to make a killing. Good Luck
I have owned a Suhr Mateus Asato signature "Strat" and just got an Ibanez AZ2204 Prestige. I prefer the Ibanez - more tonal variety (the neck does feel better on the Suhr).
I just go to my local store and ask for an empty box anytime I need one tbh
I totally agree, that bone nut on your Novo looks so cool!!!🤗😇😉
3:05 I have to disagree. The material a guitar is made out of makes no difference to the tone once it’s plugged in. It’s all pickups and hardware. Acoustic however is a different deal.
