G & L pickups are some of the clearest, most open-sounding on the market. Great playing here! Long live George and Leo!
Thank you kindly Jim ✌️❤️
The G&L Comanche is an undiscovered gem. One of these days the public will wake up to how great these guitars are. They are extremely well made, and the tones you get out of them is fantastic.
✌️❤️
Jonathan, you make any guitar sound awesome. 👍
Thanks Steve 🤓✌️
This dude seems like a legitimately good guy. Great playing and great guitar, too!
Thank you ✌💚
Wow... You're a killer guitar player. Just excellent. And G&Ls are superb- great to see someone promoting them.
Oh...I have always been fascinated by them!! 🤓✌
Having owned a Comanche for several years back around 2000 I was glad to see your review. They're a perfect blend of single coil bright with humbucker fullness. Just my opinion. I hope you liked your trial run with it. They're very distinctive. and suit your playing style well!
Couldn't agree with you more lol✌️🤓
Amazing guitar, so many options and now comes the hard part...hitting 'buy'! Thanks Jonathan for the demo.
lol I know
@@JonIsJustTooLoud Well, just snagged a Comanche USA in Andromeda directly from the factory....no sense messing around!
sounds awesome! you do this guitar justice! thank you for your excellent review, Jonathan. Cheers!
Glad you enjoyed the video ✌️🤓
So smart, friendly and unbelievably talented. Your channel should have many more subscribers!!!
Thank you so much.. I’m grateful✌️❤️
This Z Pickups are great, the Sound of the Guitar is so good, i Love G&L Guitars. Super Video 🎸🎼🎸🎼👍🙂
Thank you✌️❤️
Hello my friend. Nice tone and touch as always. You just took me back to the Steely Dan vortex. I love it. 😊✌️✌️
Hahaha thanks Bill ✌️🤓
Great demo! 👏 IMHO the Comanche is the ultimate Strat-type guitar, Leo really got it right this time. I'll take the Comanche over ANY Fender Strat...at the moment I am happily playing my Tribute S-500, but I think I'll start saving for a Comanche like yours, Jon! And that Old School Tobacco finish is just to die for...
Go for it!
Excellent playing and review. Another beautiful G&L.
Oh yes.. This one is a keeper Graeme😁
Jonnathon, I love the fact that you demo without effects for the most part, so we can hear the guitar sing. Effects are effects and sing differently. So very nice!
I am a bass player and am looking to jump into a six string. My tone options are all G&L - S500 and Comanche. Because of how quiet it is, the Comanche will win.
The tones, without effects, are just fantastic! For Jazz, Blues, easy and powerful rock charts, and for country as well!
One axe for all potential gigs!
Best regards from Reno Nevada.....
cool!!
Jonathan, you are still my second favorite guitarist in the world! My brother is always going to take president but you are a total badass.
Lol....🤓✌️
What a gorgeous, smooth sound!!!!! Great Video Jonathan. Thanks for sharing.
🤓✌
I love how you smiled at the beginning like you’re absolutely thrilled to be reviewing the Comanche. Great guitar and great playing, friend!
Thank you I hope you have subbed! ✌️❤️
Jon, you make EVERY guitar sound great. Love your sound & groove. Regs from Bavaria
Hahaha thank you.. Have a great weekend!!
✌️🤓
Superb playing, Jonathan. Well executed on a very tasteful selection of music.
Thank you ✌️🤓
I'm looking into picking up a Comanche and every time I hear them I am blown away. While they are beefier sounding than a traditional Strat, I don't look at that as a negative - one of the main reasons I've never really been able to get into Fenders are the relatively anemic sounding bridge pups. George and Leo cracked the code with this thing. So versatile, especially with the high and low roll off controls. I'm an LP guy at heart, but have a feeling if I ending getting one of these, I'll be splitting time.
go for it ✌❤
@ph6376 that’s nice to hear!
Love your videos and g&l guitars, thanks a lot.
You're most welcome Jesse😄✌️
Wow just found your channel after purchasing a G&L Legacy. Great Sound!!
Welcome to the channel Gregory!! ✌️🤓
Jonathan my friend I could listen to your playing all day very relaxing, melodic and just simply great. Beautiful G&L BTW... I haven't played on in over 20 years... Maybe some where down Road I will get one...
Thank you so much!! :)
Of the 2 G&L guitars you have shown, I think I like the Comanche best...it's beautiful....wonderful playing Jonathan
Thank you Phil.. Have a great Sunday!!😄✌️
That bend you did at 2:26 gave me goosebumps. Awesome sound!
✌️❤️
I'm amazed by the versatility of my Comanche every time I pick it up.
Cool✌️❤️
@@JonIsJustTooLoud and nice playing also
Beautiful guitar and perfect playing and real fantastic review as usual. Thank you very much to be so passionate and honest. Ciao from Italy!!!
Ciao!!!! Grazie!!! :)
@@JonIsJustTooLoud thanks to you my friend!!!!
Jonathan, well done review of the Comanche. I bought a translucent blue one on a whim 6 or 8 yrs ago. It was used at the time but still had the protective plastic on the pickguard and was in like new condition. I think it’s a very high quality guitar, much better than many of my other guitars. It has a plethora of tone possibilities as you demonstrated, which make it very versatile.
Thanks for your excellent playing and commentary. I’ve been a subscriber of your channel for a couple years now and find your videos to be both informative and inspiring. You are one of the good ones! All the best.
Thank you so much for the kind encouragement!! Stay safe✌️❤️
@@JonIsJustTooLoud and you as well!
Thanks a great demo! Loved your lead style as well!
Thank you :)
I just got a tribute Commanche and I'm blown away by how nice it is. I've had an American legacy and I can attest to the quality if the build. However the Indonesian tributes are still the best guitars at that price range.
Really dig your phrasing and gentle touch on guitar Jonathan.
Thank you Keith!! enjoy!!! ✌💙
Wow! I fell in love with this guitar 🎸
✌️❤️
I can’t watch it all right now, but I love the fat rich sounds! Warm and clear. Love it, and again your playing is better than the average bear!
Thank you Jason :)
You really have that dialed in, sounds terrific in any position but that neck pickup is perfect, I have an 80s American S500 and a Bluesboy Tribute that I love, but I will have to keep my eye out for one of these
I have both the S500 and Bluesboy...this Comanche is a very different breed! 🤓✌
Wow, beautiful playing!! Nice!!! I agree with your comments about the high quality of G&L instruments, they are super-nice instruments.
Yes they are!😀
Wonderful review! Beautiful playing! 👍
Glad you liked it!✌💜
Smooth playing as always! Ñisssssssssce 🎸
Thanks 🤓✌️
Great playing, great axe! Sounds so mellow for a maple board!
Thanks.. it is an awesome guitar!✌️❤️
Best guitars I’ve ever played, can’t go wrong with a G&L . Superior quality at an awesome price . Plus they are made in my hometown of Fullerton. Adding to my comment , you can find USA made G&L guitars used in great shape for around $700 to $800 dollars . I bought one from e bay for $800 that was a couple years old but almost unused . It’s become my favorite guitar over my Gibson’s , Fenders and Ibanez . I just can’t say enough about the quality and craftsmanship.
Couldn't agree more! Take care Rob! ✌❤
great playing and review. this color is amazing!
Yes it is!!
Your tone is superb. Very pleasant and true
Thank you kindly!✌💜
Great Vid Jon! The guitar looks and sounds Beautiful of course your playing is ALWAYS Great and YOU make that Guitar SING!! Please keep up the Good Work my Brother! Cheers!!
Thank you Rick.. This guitar was a immense joy to play ✌️😄
Great sounds, great video 👍
Thank you! :)
4:21 I've literally never heard this but I freakin' love your playing! Comanche guitars (Leo Fender's pet project after selling the Fender guitar company) sound amazing.
Thank you ✌️❤️
You play with such a nice "touch"! Great demo!
Thank you!!

All you have to do to get “traditional strat sound” is roll the bass knob to half or less. The bass control is a bass roll off the treble is a standard tone circuit.
Thanks for sharing!
A great guitar played by a great player.... Excellent review.
Thank you Scott!✌🤓
Beautiful guitar! Enjoy !
I will!!!✌️😊
Beautiful guitar and beautiful sound in between a stray and a les Paul maybe and then the best part your beautiful playing
Thank you Ron ✌️❤️
And you think we can set the amp and make it quackier?
Much appreciated for the link john, I threw a deposit down on one today as a Christmas present for myself, keep rocking and keep up the excellent reviews mate,
Enjoy it✌♥
@@JonIsJustTooLoud just one other question John, do you think locking tuners and a trem setter would be a good idea to stabalize trem flutter when doing high bends, or double stop bends
Yes they will help.. but a good nut setup is more important✌️❤️
Just wow. Your review concluded my G&L purchase over the expensive fender. Truly these guitars are Fender 2.0.
Yes✌️❤️
you always got good jams man, ROCK ON!
Thanks 🤓✌️
Man I love this one. I'm sad to see they're almost not available at all where I live. Hope I'll come by one soon. :)
Mind sharing your Helix patch btw?
With the internet, their availability is only a click away.
G&L makes some fantastic guitars.
Po1itica11yNcorrect yes they do indeed!✌️❤️
This guitar makes NO noise. Best guitar I own 🙂
You mean no hum? No noise at all would be bad for any guitar! hahah 😄✌

Will be my next guitar! Sounds amazing...
Cool✌️❤️
Awesome , love it
Thank you John ✌️
Great Jon , so now I need one more guitar , again . . .
Lol.. we all do ✌️❤️
That’s beauty axe, tight sound...
Thank you Jose✌️❤️
I find that backing the bass side of the pickups off with the Comanche makes all the Difference
Thanks for sharing✌️❤️
damn i fukin love this shit!!! jonathan!!!!!!! u absolut freak!!!!!!
If you haven't don't one yet, I would LOVE to see a comparison video between this Comanche and a similar Strat. Also, the Fullerton Bluesboy and a similar Telecaster. Hard to find good comparisons.
No comparison...very different pickups!! 🤓✌
@@JonIsJustTooLoud Understood.
Great demo / Love MFD pick-ups / I have SC-2 with the Jumbo MFDs, such great tones / Been looking at a Comanche for years (maybe next)
What Cha waiting for???🤣
Jonathan Koh just some do re mi... 🤷🏼♂️
Tom Dembinski hahaha
They now have split pickups on the Espada and I really wish someone would reverse the pickup directions (like an Italia Imola). It probably would be negligible, but I like the sound of the treble strings with the pickups closer to the neck and the bass strings closer to the bridge. If they messed around with the placement, I think it might have a nice compression maybe. I don't know. I've never played an Italia Imola.
✌️❤️
I had an american deluxe fender. But this is sound equally awesome and maybe better in certain aspect.
Man, I had a real nice Comanche about 8 years ago...got it used...I like them better than Stratocasters...they are like Leo taking the Strat and refining it in the way that he does...I really don't know why they didn't really take off...who knows though...maybe people will start taking a harder look at the Comanche and we'll start to see more of them being used on stage in the future...
Yea...thats true! 🤓✌
they didnt take off because of the strange pckup look and quite honestly ugly headstocks
@@sugarlife485 Those are two of the guitar's best features imho.
@@sugarlife485 I love the headstock, it rest on a hanger perfectly and the little swoop begins to look necessary after awhile. I still love my elite telecaster but if I had to choose one guitar for life the Fullerton asat classic s alnico would be the one. It will play Hendrix, Jazz, or Opeth with no issues.
Wow, G&L the best guitar 👏
yes they are really great guitars!!
Thanks again for a superb preview.... How do you like this in light of your S-500?
The S-500 sounded amazingly smooth I guess is the best way I could put it.
My saga continues with my S-500 that was legacyed.. before I got it, more later 😎🎸
I actually prefer this...The S500 is an amazing guitar but it's sounded like a really good strat which I already have..The Comanche is just a very different guitar which translates well both in recording and live situations
🤓✌
@@JonIsJustTooLoud - Thanks Jonathan I am thinking that same thing....I think Leo solved the equation.....huh
12:29-13:01 Yeah, that's what I'm talkin' about! I'm not a big fan of the Z coils, but that riff right there made me like them!
✌🤓
Its going to be difficult to swap the pickups out, so Im sure G&L have nailed these pups!
The pickups are pretty much the only reason you would buy a Comanche over a Legacy/Strat. You would instantly cut the used price in half if you removed them.
Great video Jon! Do you have a preference between Comanche, s-500 and ASAT Special? All three are incredible of course
The Bluesboy!!
@@JonIsJustTooLoud haha fair enough. Haven't tried a Bluesboy yet!
You could make any piece of wood sing 😎
Hahaha thanks ✌️🤓
Man really enjoy you’re playing and your sounds. Which amp model do you use on your cleans, and which verb. I use Helix native as well.
Thanks so much.
Thanks! Fender Deluxe, Twin reverb The new orange solo..I use plate reverb...✌💙
Hey buddy, beautiful guitar and I really enjoyed seeing you love your guitar so much. I recently got my first GandL, I absolutely love it and I don't think I'll ever trade or sell it. Mine is the Tribute S500
Nice!!❤✌
Awesome video dude as usual 😉 What's your model amp, Thanks 😊
Thank you! I was using the Line 6 Helix... Fender deluxe for the clean sound and a couple of amps (bi-amp) for the distortion.
@@JonIsJustTooLoud Oh i believe that you use your laney amp behind you 😅
that guitaar looks funny with that shape of coils, but sounds awsome!! well it sounds awsome beacuse you are playing it!! :)
Trust me.. This guitar is really good ✌️🤓
I like the look of the Z-Coils
so tough to pick which one I want. The skyhawk has some amazing options and tones, but those z coils with that classic S style body is tough to beat. Add the Espada to the mix and the Asat Z 3 and just too many to choose from.
Well buy all of them!! Lol
If you need inspiration watch Jake from Umphreeys Mcgee tear it up with his commanche. The guy pulls Gilmour tones all the way to Robert Fripp. The guitar has zero hum, it's something else.
I really like your reviews and watching you play guitar is a joy! On the G&L website I see there is a custom option to replace the Dual Fulcrum bridge with a Saddle Lock bridge. Given your experience with both I am wondering if the Saddle Lock bridge is much better with regards to tuning stability vs the Dual Fulcrum. Thanks!
I have no problems with the dual fulcrum.. but if youre not a trem user, get the saddle lock bridge ✌️❤️
Hi Jonathan,
I am a newer subscriber. I am enjoying your channel quite a bit. In one of your recent videos you had changed your string gauge to 9.5. Does this G&L have 9.5's on it? How are you enjoying the
9.5's now that you have been playing them for a little while? .....Thanks
Hi Henry! Welcome to the channel! The truth is I stopped using 9.5s a month after making that video. I guess I'm so used to the 10s... So yes the G&L are in 10s✌️😄
I really like the sound of this guitar. But I think I should wait for a new model with locking tuners.
I don’t think they come with locking tuners unless it’s a custom ✌️❤️
Hi Jon, I am so torn between S500 & Comanche!!!
Lol get both!!✌️❤️
G&L since 1981, I own all the models Basses and guitars The real Fender Los Angeles
word! ✌🤓
What is the quality of this model? Do you have to 'tune' it when you get it especially string height, buzzing. Finally, how you compare this to a Fender Strat of the same price (Pro/Ultra)?
This model is great...I'll take this anytime compared to the models you mentioned✌♥
Jk....i know you use a line 6....but do you think you could get that same buttery smooth tone from an amp and pedals??....and if so, what would you recomend??
My favorite amp is a Fender DeVille... As for pedals.. There's just too many available in the market...✌️😄
Wow, this seems like one of the best guitars ever, do you still have it? I’m surprised I haven’t heard about it before. Where would this guitar rank out of all the guitars you own?
I’m kind of blown away by this guitar to be honest
Yes I still have it… this guitar is right up there with my favourites ✌️❤️
damn i want a comanche vintage tobacco burst
Lol
you are becoming one of my favorite players, your reviews are nice but your playing is FAR more interesting, guitars are not THAT different nowadays REALLY, players are different
but you remind me of the studio greats of the seventies, the reggie youngs,and larry carltons and such, you got a nice scramblings of those influences that dont get heard alot lately
Thank you brother.. I sure hope you’re subscribed to the channel! And if you did.. welcome to the channel!✌️❤️
The pickups are odd. They didnt sound like single coils and they did sound like humbuckers.
I was trying to determine if they sounded like P90's, but not so much...
They just sounded like fatter single coils...which is exactly how people describe P90's, but to me they dont sound like P90's either.
Really odd. I like the guitar and how it sounds. Thanks for the demo.
you know what? I'm loving the way it sounds...very different and very usable :)
#glguitars #comancheguitar #comanche 👍
Guitar has a beautiful tone - very glassy and shimmery! I've been thinking about one of these for a while. Clean it sounds great but under gain I'm not crazy about how the noiseless pickups break up (little bit of a "flubby" sound to me - not natural sounding).
It sounds fine to me!! ✌🤓
How do you like the comanche as opposed to the S-500?
if i have never owned a strat..The S500 would be a godsent! The comanche just sounds really nice and different..thats why I like it
Nice... Can i know the guitar specifications or link to buy thesame
Everything is in the video
@@JonIsJustTooLoud ok
G&L Comanche (Tribute Series) - Olympic White. How about this is there any demo from ur tube
Performance is ampli ..It digital simulator? ? Helix? Thanks. .👍
???
@@JonIsJustTooLoud non parlo inglese ..Hai usato l' ampli o simulazioni digitali? ? Congratulations is very good player guitar 👏👍👋.
Do you prefer the z coils or the mfd from g&l
Oh I need less 60 cycle hum, the Z coils ✌️❤️
First time i've ever seen a video with 0 dislikes
😝
so you really like that trem do you? cant really notice it :D its like a tremolo party. trem here there o and a bit more trem :D
Lol
o i got the ux2. iam really happy with it, so easy to install and use and the software that comes with it amazing.thx for the help ;)
Awesome!!
Yeah but that is an Comanche ("LOVE")
hahha ✌❤
Seriously, the pickups demo section should be in an album. That doesn't need a band. It's like Michael Hedges, Jimi Hendrix, and Steve Vai with often better tones. I am stoned as hell, though.
Lol
@@JonIsJustTooLoud I meant to type Jimi Hendrix-I have corrected that just now. Listening again fully sober. I really love that intro music and the opening jam. Is that all your music? Do you have anything up on Bandcamp to purchase? I honestly listen to a lot of guitar instrumental albums wishing more of the songs sounded like the stuff you play.
U didn't used the treble and bass controls.... than uve got more strat sounds ...
I did.. ✌️
In terms of pickup sound, do you like Comanche or S-500 better?
Both are very different...For me..I prefer the Z coils on the commanche✌❤
Thanks for replying! Z coils sounds very unique, like precision bass pickup in strat. Curious if the treble side coil lean more toward neck & bass side coil toward bridge. String 1,2,3 sound become more mellow, string 456 sound more bright, like in Spector bass.
Anyway, your 40th anniversary S-500 looks gorgeous ❤️
Hi Jonathan, great video, smooth tones as always. Check out my profile picture, you might just make out a nice Comanche top row in the middle. It has the most amazing bird's-eye maple neck I've ever seen. Sublime instruments.
Thanks✌️❤️
