I love how Zaks guitars either pass for a guitar axe or a literal weapon.....love it
But they are weapons actually, no?
Mike Stringer from Spiritbox uses Open Core moderns in his new custom jacksons
Aren't they basically just the standard Fishman Moderns with different covers? 🤔
All I know is after over 30 years playing guitar and owning at least 50 guitars over the years, including Gibsons and Fenders and G&L and Washburn and Ibanez and and Ibanez and Ibanez and Ibanez...
My Schecter C-1 SLS FR S Evil Twin Elite is the most amazing guitar I've ever had.
Nobody
AND I MEAN NOBODY puts together a guitar so badass for the money like Schecter.
I bought that exact same Evil Twin last year and over the 26 years i’ve been playing it’s by far the best i’ve played too.That swamp ash back is gorgeous
@@Alan1978M
My dad just bought the new Epiphone SG inspired by The Gibson Custom Shop.
$1,500
It sounds amazing.
But compared to my Evil Twin, it looks and feels like a display case for a bunch of overpriced Gibson Custom pups and the lot.
The neck-through design on the Evil Twin is my favorite feature and how you can see it through the finish is just divine.
The Fishman the Sustaniac and the Floyd are the collab you always never knew you needed.
Evil Twin for life!!
@@mykuntstynx9463 I have the regular C-1 SLS Elite in Black Fade Burst with the natural back and it plays and sounds amazing. What does irritate me though, is that they apparently don't do any matching of the body woods? The wood on the left side of mine is pretty saturated and dark while the right side is very pale/light. I wouldn't expect bookmatching at that price point but I feel like they should at least pay a little bit of attention to not have it look SO different on a guitar with a natural back/sides. But as I said, other than this visual issue the guitar is amazing. It has quickly become my main guitar and I'm definitely up for buying another Schecter in the future.
@@ToxinInMyVeins
That would be a bit of an irritation for sure considering the back is just as awesome looking as the front because of the neck through design.
I must have lucked out because mine is perfect.
If there was any kind of a finish issue on mine it would be how I can feel the seams of wood on the front of the guitar directly under the Floyd cavity with my fingers as it's not a perfect blend.
Other than that, it's perfect.
And I'm not even sure if what I'm talking about is a flaw.
And I had to dyi my own silent springs for the trem.
Yes Sir
I love it.
@@mykuntstynx9463 I have the regular one with the fixed bridge and active Fishmans.Eyeing up the new Jackson Pro Plus Series Rhoads RR24, Mirror
I wish Schecter would bring back the 006 model.
Agree
006 with better upper fret access would be a dream!
@@dancortes2164 any access to a 006 would just be enough for me. But since we are asking for specifics I’d love to see a baritone 006. And one with the original pickup format with a humbucker and a single coil.
Yup, i have 006 blackjack and never gonna sell it. Ive been looking hellraiser version for ages.
@@raylenin9322 ya know, I’d ultimately would wanna see one in the blackjack ATX line. I’ve owned 5 ATX’s at this point. Hurricane Laura claimed a couple of them :/ but I still have my first ATX and I wanna rebuilt my collection. An ATX 006 in baritone would just be end game for me.
Good luck with the upcoming tour man! Godspeed🙏
Thanks Ray!
Oh good luck on the upcoming tour !
Ey Yoooo!!! Xanderinooo!!!!
Love the shirt!
Love the arm bevel on the new PTs, remind me of balaguer or kiesel designs
Hell ya lets go bud.
Big reason I've been grateful to work with them for so long. I still have a C7 Blackjack from 2006 thats taken a beating through constant shows/tours with no issues. I keep coming back to them specifically because they show so much love to lefties
Love the telecaster style guitars. Solar has a baritone one in blue I’ve had my eyes on. I have a Schecter PT special and it’s brutal. Love that they are broadening that line up. Never played a multi scale though! Cool take on it. Also looooove the new Zacky Vengeance signature. The gold hardware makes it stand out with a clean look for sure.
Schecter has some epic remakes. I been trying to license my vertical scallop to Schecter as a limited run experimental guitar. I’ll try after I get a viral vid with a Ytuber.
You need some sound treatment in there so bad dude, hope you're well and the new space looks great.
Well aware. Just moved. Thanks!
Sup brada, good to see you doing well. I fkn love Schecter and glad they are getting some props lately. Now if they can keep QC on the straight , prices somewhat affordable and good designs they should be squared away for a while.
I love the Wilde audio , nomad in natural schecter is absolutely stunning…. Not for everyone but. Dude your an awsome player, I’m more into streetpunk and oi!
And definetly old school hardcore…but I’m learn a lot by watching you play. I’m 50 and one thing I say to kids . Is you never know wich and when someone playing will inspire you. Gotta keep an open mind❤
Awesome shirt haha holy shit. Need me one of those. Should find an old Kid n Play shirt to rock also 🤟
Heavy agree, with the "If you wanna make a multiscale, make a multiscale". Nothing else seems great after getting used to a Strandberg 8, if the PT MS 8 had a 28" scale on the 8th string it'd almost be a no-brainer for me (still awesome ofc) lol
The fishman opencore modern is essentially the OG modern with a 3rd voicing. It delivers a really accurate splil coil tone - the one thing I've always felt was missing from the OG moderns.
Pretty positive the Open Core Moderns came out late last year. They've got the same voices as the newest Fluence Moderns, but with the "open core"/uncovered look if you're not into the typical covered look of your usual active pickups. Love the content as always, man!
I love that Tori Ruffin guitar. It belongs on my wall next to my MKH Les Paul.
Hey bro, would you play some of your favorite SALT N PEPA RIFFS next video?? Thanks man
PT model is named for Pete Townshend of the Who.
First sighting of complete Schecter tele model was probably on the Eminence Front video.
Probably still their best selling model/line, after all these years lol
Could you get your hands on one of the John Browne Sig models? They look so cool would be interested to see your thoughts
Those black Tele shape guitars are so sick! What's not to like?
wished they did more with the solo ii line , also Zakk needs a few Lp styles that arnt all "stripey"
That shirt!!!
thank you so much for this video dude
Good to see some new videos from you.
Sick shirt! Low E?
The open core modern is a fluence modern without the cover. EMG's have rail design under the covers too.
I'm curious to hear your thoughts about the new Schecter Meegs PT EX guitar. 27.5" scale tele shaped 6-string 👀 I'm digging it's style and the 27.5" scale on a 6-string I don't see too often from the major guitar companies.
Schecter has always so many wonderful guitars...and I can't get all of these 😢
I’m pretty sure I sent you a DM about the T style shape
That looks like the specs are, "Take a scroll saw and go nuts."
The headstock on that SG looks like a Pincher Bug
That new Wyld audio needs the jack moved to any other spot. I love guitars with cut outs there, but then half the time they put the jack right where your leg goes. Solar does the same thing with their star shape.
Those Tele shapes suspiciously look like the Solar model TC black on black
There is a reason brands angle their pickups for their multiscale, and Schecter is about to find out
This will sound like a middle pickup on that. And having a longer scale will not solve this issue. That's sad, because the guitars looks amazing
100% I imagine those low strings are going to sound really muddy, while the high strings are going to sound really shrill in comparyson
I wonder if they had a longer pickup and angled it the other way where the top was at the bridge and the bottom was all the way to the neck would sound good, you wouldnt need a pickup selector.
Not angled may sound better clean esp with finger picking you would basically have a bass and reg guitar at the same time
@@Durkhead Fair point, I could see it being nice for cleans, especially split coil. Similar to how a fender telecaster bridge is set up.
When the Wylde Audio Thoraxe came out, I hated it. Then the Goregehn came out...and it looks awesome to me. It seems even Wylde fans cannot agree which ones are ugly and which ones are dope lol
Hope you're doin good, you look kinda tired in this vid, take care of yourself brotha 🤎
I love crazy shaped guitars (80's kid) , but jeez what the hell is going on in those product meetings?
Bruhhh, that SG looks so good... if only I had 1.5k to get me one now :(
I want a 30" - 24" multiscale 9 string schectercaster
I sent that to one of my friend who was looking for a "Tele d'l'enfer" (Tele from Hell) for his collection, and if you'd just put a red pickup in there it'll look mean as hell
I’m glad to hear others that appreciate Wylde, love him or hate him he’s a workhorse that has filled some legendary shoes over the years including making his own way…..as far as his guitar line the barbarians are awesome AF….
Zakk was the guy that inspired me to pick up the guitar way back in the day, but you have to admit, after he left Gibson or Gibson left him, however it went down, the guitars got uglier and uglier. The bullseye Les Paul Custom was so cool back in the day, but his new signature stuff looks like it melted in the sun.
Watching you pass over the Justin Beck signature bugged me out lol .. kinda wanted to hear your opinion, gj and justin beck are fucking amazing.
the new Zakk Wylde looks like a Pure Salem Classic Creep - I dig it though
I hate avenged sevenfold but for some reason that synyster gates is a vibe for me
The fishman open core modern is just the modern without the cover
2:15 yes it is a new thing released earlier this year
Ahh okay thanks!
@@xanderraymondcharles no problem man. I think there is more info on fishmans website tho
Im thinking of buying the freak juice lol its just crazy
Ormsby is doing multiscale right. Six string: 25.5 - 27.5”, Seven string: 25.5 - 27.8”, Eight string: 25.5” - 28.3". 25.5 to 27.5 is just not enough for an 8
The cocobolo is a type of wood
Interesting timing, after years and years of avoiding Schecter, I just bought my first one the other day and it was a PT Special. None of the metal guitars interest me at all, the only stuff I'm remotely interested in from Schecter is the retro stuff, and they make the most sensible 'modern'' telecaster I could find with the features I wanted. I've always thought Schecters were overly gaudy looking, stuff that caters towards the younger demographic. Didn't know that they have a bunch of old school inspired designs until recently.
Dude, the PT-8 Black Ops is literally the next “expensive” piece of gear it get. That guitar is literally a dream guitar of mine, but it’s black instead of green to black fade😎
Buyer beware. Check the distance between the bridge pickup and bridge on the bass strings. Gonna sound super muddy and not tight.
Steph C is with Kiesel now
Is carbon fiber in necks stand now days? With Most companies??
The Zak guitar would be much better with a 24 fret neck and a floyd.
Your T-shirt collection is top notch.
Well the Zakk guitars are a bit weird indeed…. Cause he is weird and amazing. They also released that nonsensical crap in the MGK… thing.
Outside of that, that brand no matter how silly their guitars can be, they released the wildest and best bang for the buck guitars. 7/8 string tele with fan frets?!?! 👀
Also the lefties in mass abundance.
Too bad the company that starts with a G couldn’t try even the slightest bit of difference
Ok. Who slipped LSD in Schecter’s coffee?
Dudes that just a Palmer with half the bottom missing...
Your shirt looks like the freak juice
Ahhhhh Push it. P p p pushit…
Salt N Pepa lol Represent! lol
Heck yeah dude!!!
Who in their right mind wants a beat up guitar at those prices??
Boomer take tbh
@@BasedHyperborean maybe learn the value of money & how hard it is to earn it. Then get back to me.
@@WallofSounds5317brother I’m 30 years old and live in one of the most expensive states in the country. Relic guitars are so common and have been around for so long. Sorry you can’t afford one, but that doesn’t mean other people can’t or that they shouldn’t exist. Now stop being a boomer.
@@BasedHyperborean Age has nothing to do with it. I live in Canada in one of the most expensive provinces, in one of the most Expensive cities where we have a carbon tax 23%, Federal tax 7% & Provincial tax 6%. You don't have a carbon Tax. But none of that matters. I can relic my own Guitars just by using them. So why overpay others to do it for me.
I wouldn't pay more than $500 Canadian for any of them
Your thoughts on pricing appear to be stuck in like 2012.
@@BasedHyperborean No. I have seen & played guitars that were under $500 Canadian From China, Indonesia, Vietnam & Japan that are giving the name brand guitars like Gibson, Fender & other legacy guitar companies a run for their money. Some of the guitars from China, Indonesia, Vietnam & Japan are even better than some of Legacy Name brand guitars.
@@WallofSounds5317sorry you’re broke. 😔
Maybe one day you’ll have grown up money. Keep your head up.
@@BasedHyperborean no not broke just a realist. You don't have to break the bank to buy a great guitar. You can buy the guitar and buy a great amp with all the goodies in it along with pedals. If you're a smart shopper
Oh no. The Zacky V guitar looks like a really bad, cheap SG knockoff rather than a fresh take. Gibson isn’t gonna like that lmao
Edit: I also can’t stand that Zakk Wylde signature. Yikes x10. 😬
That razor blade guitar is hideous.
These are sick to be honest. Tired of the strat, Les Paul and tele body styles
Those guitars all look terrible. It’s like kids from Hot Topic designed them all. Let’s not even talk about the Zakks 😂
The Scallon Contrast, Merrow MkⅢ and BlackOps teles are pretty cool.
