Are Cheap Amazon Guitars Getting Better?

Whoa! Thats a Big Bottle of Dunlop 65 Polish/Cleaner! 🤘👽👽👽🎸

Dane been wanting to call and see what you had on some possible a G&L ASAT or Other 🦃🦃🦃🤘🎸🤠

I think the fact that direct sales are getting more and more prominent for guitar makers and shops are dying out means that they need to get some things right at the factory that they maybe would have let a shop fix and QC in the past.

I really like the Strat. If it was a lefty you phone would have already rang. I can't see it hanging around long it's so nice.

yo

Dane, do you do fixup work on gretsch guitars? My favorite guitar needs a new pickup selector and maybe a good once over and was just wondering if thats something you could help an old punk with?

I really like your channel. Just found it recently. I like hometown music stores. They're becoming a rarity. Is there a phone number that I could call to order? My guitar supplies from you. Strings cleaners picks straps what have ybut I am. We don't have anything here like that now Local guitar shops music stores

Awesome Video Dane 👍🏼💯

After 16 years of marriage, I could use some relief in the neck as well. Lol.

They’re heavy because they’re using green wood. They’re not drying the wood for years, or even months. These make great mod platforms though.

They look pretty nice for Amazon guitars..

I really like the color of the seafoam green strat. It's always a pleasure to see you bring these guitars back into better condition with such care. Thanks Dane!

great video and restringing. these are not bad guitars at all and you got them sounding ok. thanks for posting

The bodies are mahogany although it will be African which looks and sounds similar. It isn't ...but it is very good. PRS use it.

So mellow so smart so laid back so good. You can work on my guitar anytime, buddy. Well. I probably can't afford you but anyways good content man love you so I learn a lot every time I watch. Keep going pal

Great video man! By the way for the Strat Amazon says is an Ash body

compared to the terrible guitars we learned on in the early 60's these new guitars are a dream

Really cheap guitars from Amazon should be avoided. And probably don’t need to be at all. Although my plywood Kramer is still rocking so…?

Great work my friend! Nice playing and nice sound!!🎸

I have several of these GEARIT guitars and I think they are pretty good with some amazing features and looks. You totally missed that both the Strat and the tele style have coil-splitting pickup in the bridge position.

@ZIMMSGUITARS Please do demos of these guitar! Also if new guitar amps arrive at your shop, please do demos of those. Keep up the great work Dane! I enjoy watching your content! Someday when I'm in the Mesa area, I'll drop by your shop and demo some guitars there! Keep rockin' my friend, and don't stop playing! Every time I watch your videos, it's like I'm literally inside your shop demoing guitars, asking questions about your shop, and the gear that's there!

Looks like they are getting better at building them.

Many of the Chinese guitars i have worked in come equipped with two way truss rods. I find this funny brcause i can not grt one on an expensive guitar like a Gibson or Fender.

yes

Again, only 21 frets.

Yes

These GearITs fascinate me, especially the LP with P-90s that mysteriously disappeared off the internet. I would say Amazon guitars absolutely can be good - even great. Eart, WestCreek, Monoprice, Donner...all worthy instruments, in my estimation.

I like that "Gumby" model

hello racist, you gotta stop saying cheap chinese stuff, bigot,

they claim the wood is ashe

great pair of guitars brother!
did you get a chance to grab some sound samples before you gave em back to the customer?
im looking at that tele model myself....

Nice looking firewood,any strat that heavy, doesn't even qualify for a wall hanger, very nice looking guitars,a ton of fun right.

Hi, do you know what the body routing is on this particular strat style guitar? Is it a swimming pool route? HSS route? HSH? Something else? thanks!

Many Chinese guitars are made in the same factories and by the same people as US brand guitars are. So why wouldnt they be good? They might not come set up great right out of the box, but Ive had US made Gibsons and Fenders that were not set up worth a crap too.

Just bought the gearit Tele I noticed the nut was high, so I decided to change the strings, when I did the nut broke in half. I replaced the nut with a bone and now it plays perfectly

I got the Thinline tele last week, it was only $75, with P90 (I didn't have one), coil splitting, and POSSIBLY stainless steel frets??? Yes, they smooth, and rounded ends. It's extremely possible. I was disappointed in some cosmetic and finish issues, but not too much for the price, and the frets and pickups COMPLETELY make up for it.

Scar My Guitar thinks that the solid wood is red oak, which is HEAVY, and I think he's right. I absolutely LOVE it, just got to get use to the weight 😂

Unlike a lot of other manufacturers, the Chinese seem to be listening to their customers feedback, just need better quality control

I have both of these and love them.

You should have seen some of the English made crap cheap guitar I learnt on lol.
