This is such a great video. It helped me decide on my new guitar. I have a telecaster and an SG but have never owned a Strat. I received Blackie a few days ago and I am so happy with it. The neck is fantastic. Thank you so much for this great review and for inspiring me to go for a Clapton sig guitar 😁
The Ernie Ball Musicman Petrucci guitars are also very overpriced.
Regarding when opened back cavity, the control pots at first are EVH/Bourn 500k Lo Friction, later tone pot changed to 250k Hi Friction, and for EVH Signature Tour the volume pot is High Performance Upgraded. And tremolo block is 37mm, and can be use 42mm as well.
Have one with lace Sensors from 1999 and one with the vintage noiseless Pu s , in my opinion the noiseless sound much better thant the lace
Nice great playing
Definitely the Ferrari of guitars 🎸
I don't think the price of the Pia is any different then fender selling the Eddie Vann Halen red stripped guitar, Or any other EVH guitar. Or Fender's Custom Shop Guitars! All bolt on necks are overpriced! They ( EVH & Fender) want a ton of money for that guitar! I don't think it's worth it! Eddie's guitar was $50.00 for the body and maybe a 50- 60 for the neck. I know because I went to the same places he got parts. But because of his name they want to charge a fortune! This is why people like fender Ibanez pay these people a lot of money for their Endorsement! So they can jack up the price! I have the Pia, and I love it! I think it's way better then any of the Eddie guitars! Way more options. And don't get me started on the special edition EVH Red Striped guitar! 25 Grand! And I'm a major Eddie fan! I would never pay that even if I could! I have Eddie's Peavey guitar, I have Gibson's Jimmy Page number 2 Les Paul. I paid over 8 Grand for that guitar!, Also, Jeff Becks cusom shop strats around 6-7 thousand etc. I have a ton of guitars. I wasn't an Ibanez fan until the Pia. You can't compare Gibson with Ibanez. They're just 2 different approaches. Gibson and Fender have been making the same guitar forever. Only Paul Reed Smith & Ibanez are trying to give players not the ordinary.. When you buy a EVH guitar or a Steve Vai guitar you know what to expect. If it wasn't for these special players you may have never purchased that kind of guitar. But when you saw you're hero's playing it you had to have it! I think My Pia is the most unique instrument I own! It sounds & plays great! We live in the golden age of gear we can nit pick all we want, but we are all lucky to have all the choices we have compared to player of the past.
Great video! Thank you.
That tone difference cannot be from the wood. There are some other tricks going on. I don't know what, but it's either a pickup, potentiometer or capacitors thing.
Seems there’s only one guy at fender answering for all products not at the actual factory. He states this is a production model and not made by custom shop team who can confirm?
That rose wood looks too lite
To me the Green one sounded the best clean Also the Honey.
Beautiful guitar - stunning, even when viewed on a screen and not in real life.
no guitar is worth 3000 in this market...its a buyers market for sure...ill put my evh usa against anything...all you have to do is set your hand on the board and the ghost of Evh POSESSES YOU...lol...I have a cheap modded tele and im about to get another decent tele...I wont pay 3000 for it tho...Even if i had it...nice axes brother...Im new...haha
Very cool! Love the imagery with the music.
No seymour duncans, no cigarette burn, no aging, no fret nibs. No thanks.
You got a little bit unfortunate with the lightness of the rosewood on this particular guitar. Mine was “medium dark”, but now looks almost black as ebony after a quick wipe over with a disposable Ernie Ball fretboard conditioner wipe that I found online.
How can Ibanez not have quality assurance?
If Allan’s name wasn’t attached to it this model would sell no more than 20
Yeah man I see your point.. I think only Allan is used to that guitar...
wow. i hated my peavey WG. MY EBMM is so more playable and btw, i don't get not being able to play fast on it. i'm stunned by your observation.
Beautiful guitar!!! However, I do have two very important questions......1) Are you in frame? 2) Is this being done in real time? I just need to know! LOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOL
haha, the headaches of home recording ;)
@@THEVATICANTS Haha I can certainly understand that!!! Great review and incredible guitar! Not sure how you can sell that one!
I've bought the cheaper version of YJM strat. It feels and plays great. But I'm sure the custom shop make them a lot better for the price! Do you notice if there's a big difference in the DiMarzio pickups compared to Seymore Duncan?
Yeah, there's huge differences in tones. But I think both were awesome!!!
These Music Man are no doubt great playing guitars. But I just never felt their mild-mannered appearance matched the super-charged spirit of EVH's music. But frankly, Eddie could probably throw some stings on a broomstick and make it sound great. Any guitar in Eddie's hands will always sound unreal. Did Eddie ever play a broomstick?....yeah, he did it live on Summer Nights right here: czcams.com/video/coDVcuVoINU/video.html
Proper, objective review. I agree with what you said. No amp is perfect, and 4000 for this is just crazy.
I appreciate your honesty. First of all, everyone is free to have his or her own aesthetic taste and preferences when it comes to the physical design of a guitar, and so forth. You gave a very heartfelt reaction to this guitar. If I may, I would just like to respond to a couple of points you made. First, unlike all those other beautiful guitars you own, which are the famous ones music lovers have both seen and heard for decades now, the AH Kiesel, every detail of it, was designed for a singular purpose: to enable Allan to get the tones he wanted for the kind of music he played, plus the physical layout of the controls, the bridge, his preference for the headless neck, and the chambering of the body. For jazz/fusion players, this guitar is a great choice, and the last thing they care about is its looks. There are the guys who practice nine hours a day, getting lost in the sound and the never-ending struggle to apply the principles of music theory to the physical act of playing the instrument. Then they perform live late at night in tiny, darkened clubs where neither the audience nor the players care what their instruments look like, only the beauty of the tones they make. In summary, the AH Kiesel is a guitar for a very specific type of music and type of playing. For most other music and playing styles, I would certainly recommend one of the more famous guitar models. Finally, about an hour before seeing Allan perform for the last time, because he died not long thereafter, I met him and shook his hand in a restaurant near the club he performed at that night in NYC. I had known that he was a large man with big hands and very long fingers, allowing him to spread them across the fretboard in ways the rest of us wrestle with to the point of tears. But it was not until I shook his hand and got that up close and personal that I learned first hand how and why he approached the instrument the way he did: he was genetically designed to do so. Remember, this was a man who first fell in love with the great jazz saxophone players, as a child, like Charlie Parker and John Coltrane. He wanted to play a horn for that reason. So when his grandfather (Allan was raised by his grandparents) one day brought home for Allan a cheap second-hand acoustic guitar he had picked up at a pawn shop, Allan, not being interested in playing the guitar, immediately started trying to find ways of playing the guitar that made it sound like a wind instrument, a horn. Years later, we would all benefit from this. Anyway, cheers for the great review.
Everyone is entitled to their own likes and or dislikes, So "Fender John 5 Signature Ghost Telecaster , Really worth $3000?" And if this $3000.00 ? Telecaster; Blows your skirt up ? Then Good for you.. But for me Nope .. At twice the price of a custom HH tele. For a shiny pickguard and red binding and knobs? Not just Nope But He!! Nope ! But I an glad you are happy with it .. And in the end? That's all that matters. Have fun. Thanks for a very cool review/demo
Damn man! Ambassador of the John 5 Ghost, EVH and other brands; amazing player and awesome band member (just bought your entire cataloge)....you rock and rule simultaneously! hahaha All the best from Texas!! Spectacular guitar reviews! Thank you so much for putting the time to do the videos!!!! (still in line for my John 5 Ghost - if I ever get one and don't go above $3500)
Thnx man, rock on 👊👊👊👊
spectacular, amazing, superb review! WOW The official ambassador of the Fender Ghost!!!!! Every detail I woulded care to know you covered it!!! Thank you!!! In waiting list with Sweetwater!!!!
Very conflicting reviews on the neck. I have seen half the reviews saying it is chunkier than the 50s standard neck, your review says it is thinner, and also other reviews saying it is the same as a 50s standard. So which is which? Even gibson website just list the neck profile as 50s standard.
That's Gibson for you, very inconsistent. Same with their QC. I played several Jessicas now, some great, some sucked badly and should have never left the factory floor.
The lighter the guitar, the more expensive the wood.

Damn. I don't believe that I've ever heard more bourgeois BS about a guitar than what your spewing. You can keep your self righteous 'Berkeley Graduate' persona. What an a-hole!
is the maple top veneering top?
0:18 amp sims: am I a joke to you
I really dislike that they went for satin on this one. I was waiting for this for a long time. Tried it at the store, but the satin made it feel cheap for me
This video is what made me finally decide to choose the Jessica model. I got it a couple of days ago and honestly, it’s great! My new #1. Mine doesn’t have that same sort of contrast as your burst, it’s much more subtle like a “blonde burst”. Has nice wood grain though. Thanks for making such an honest review.
Swap the pups
It's a good thing Allan never played with any sustain. 🤣
Hey! great detailed video :) One Question: did you find you were able to get the action lower on the custom shop strat vs. the USA? I've struggled to get mine (even after a fret level) to 4/64ths in terms of height at the 12th fret. How is that in terms of difference vs the custom? Thanks!
Yeah I had same issues :)
@@THEVATICANTSglad I’m not the only one. I guess these guitars need the higher action to really breathe.
Marko. I actually was able to find a really good example of this guitar on reverb. It was pre owned by one person but it literally was brand new. Barely played. AND he took the extra step to change the pickups to real SD APH-2s. And I got the axe at a great price. I couldn’t be happier with it. Sounds and looks amazing.
Thanks! Eyeing one of these. Great video production at the end too!
My stripper clip pin was hanging on with everything it had, was not "a breeze".
This is amazing
thnx man!!
Nice axe.
✔👌 ' 👏👏👏 .
Great video. You should try Neutrik NDJ’s to those empty plug holes. They will prevent accidents 😁
Lacs?
you can see the white pearl finish good @11:06
A case means extra money - i have tons of cases and gig bags. I‘d rather see the extra money put into the quality of the guitar.
Agree. And in this "case", Fender did neither.
