My wife and I each purchased 2 guitars 1 each of a Metal Guitar.. We had purchase points plus the guitars were on sale with an additional $30... So we saved some serious 🤑💰💰💰.... Reg $259 on sale $199 plus the $30 off plus my $20 off & my wife had more purchases so more points. So she only paid $56 & I paid $150 So We love it when Amazon does these seasonal sales. Yeah the pickups are ab easy fix with Styrofoam... I personally love the flying V they have with the Floyd Rose Trem locking System.. Next is the X body then the the EVH Style guitars that you have one of .. For the price you have to expect little crap like this. This happens with Jackson Kramer Gibson Fender etc. & They are at higher price points. Great Review. Killer Riffs... Cheers 🍻🥃🥃🎸🎵🎶🎶🎶
IMO most of the reviews are beginning player's that don't have the technical ability to work on Guitars.. Which is Crazy since so many videos on setting up guitars. On RU-vid... The muddy pickup can be fixed with either a new cap or CHEAPER a little metal added to the back of the pickup. A few 6 penny nails cut the heads off. Soldering them to the back of the pickup. Also changing the height will or should I say May add a little better clarity.
Check out Alie-Express and TEMU for the String Stretcher.. Looks like a Disposable Razor 🪒 With the blades removed. $1.79 to $2.99 each . My wife and I each have 6 of them. Saves time and you're hands .. 🎸🎵🎶🎶🎶
I've seen here on RU-vid a couple bad reviews of these new models, where the issue is that a lot of these shipped out with the pickups wired incorrectly / were not grounded so they feedback like crazy with distortion. Glad to see you got a good one from the batch! \m/
Again, I really enjoy your channel and content! I also have (and enjoy) a considerable sense of humor (I like to laugh) and sometimes even play some of your reviews over just to have something to play. Keep up the good work and keep your balls COLORED! LOL 😂🤣
@@Dave6SS I have JX-50, JX-20, Helios, Racer, and the 333. I am impressed with all of them. And seriously, give an All In One (AIO) Wolf LP a try. You will not be disappointed. Guitar Max toured their shop and showed what they do before shipping to you. Check out the video. ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-zA1VaPcxdLQ.html
Dear Dave, I formally "Triple DOG DARE" you, yes, YOU Dave, to buy as many guitars with "Bad Reviews" as you can to deal with them right here so we won't have to.
It was going so well till you started pulling out the knob ..just the knob...but then you pulled out the thing... and well I never😮 But really.. why did they put a push pull on both knobs..... with a 3 way.... I don't get it... unless there's isn't a "tone" and just 2 volumes... who knows....I don't know..you...me..nope Did I miss the Strang ease DITTY TYME🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉❤
Twing tweeeeeds!! LMAO I gotta bust your ballz Holmes! Hahaha man I'd love yto drink a beer with you Bro, and bust your ballz in person! But I'll take the internet I guess! You know.. I've ben seeing these guitars for a while. Zero interest. Hated them. But holy crap - you knokw that one looks pretty killer! Not a fan of the yellow and black. Poor EVH rip-off. But this one, IMO, is not even close to the EVH thing. Looks like its own thing. I think this looks great. And 16 at the bridge! Wow! Bro - I might have to check one of these out! Cool vid, Bro - as always. Get some therapy. One of these days, you'll be able to say "String Trees." Hahaha
I just got a WestCreek Cerberus and IMO it's great, All the RU-vid vids I have seen on WestCreek guitars have been very good. As far as bad reviews or even great reviews I do not think Amazon makes sure the person is a verified buyer! I know people who go on Amazon and leave bad reviews on many items they do not even own. Seeing your vid I am sure the guitar is well worth the cost. I checked out the 1 star reveiw and the guy complained the frets didn't go all the way to the edge of the fret board. Ball end frets are not supposed to go to the edge! This is why they never get fret sprout. The alignment of the neck could be it got knocked around. He claims IVY are better! Both IVY guitars I have gotten were the worse can't turn up the vol or gain and it squeals like a pig. Pick ups are terrible. Gave one away after I swapped out the Pick Ups the other was a gift so I am stuck with it. I have bought three Firefly guitars and they were also terrible mostly bad wiring and slight finish issues. Easy fixes but they did not live up to the hype i saw on them. Leo Jaymz guitars are so far the best of the affordable guitar I have three now and looking to buy another but I think the resin and wood top Tempest are discontinued.
the bad reviews were from gibson pissed off because you didnt buy one of there new 1200 dollar overpriced epiphones that are probably made down the street from were this one was built
I just bought a 3 pack of Muscell nickel wound strings 3 sets for $9.99. Guess what? They have color balls just like D'Addario's. Don't let the picture in the ad fool you the color is just like D'Addario. So, I doubt these low budget guitars have those D'Addario's in them. Awesome video!
Way to go, dude. That’s what proves ya do it for the fans. Yeah, it’s all about the music, but ya do it for the fans. Rolls off the tongue pretty good. Too bad you can’t use it without kinda tootin your own horn. Still, that’s a fact. Ya saw bad reviews, but you took the shot and vindicated the brand. Also showed your viewers that, at least there are good ones. Well done, captain. Well done.👍🏻
I bought that one a month ago already. Looks great but the neck either needs adjusting or some frets in the middle needs leveling. Just haven't had the time to work on it. Inlays are nice though. The bridge seemed nice. But I do prefer Floyd bridges.
My wife is being a real stickler this month so I might have to wait.. Hey, you’re playing isn’t that bad, and if we were in a band together it would be called Stink Floyd.. You could be Dime Bag Derple and I could be Claric Whapton. 🤷
You are ferkin funny dude. Made me laugh. Seems like a good guitar especially if you're into the EVH vibey colour job. Great value no doubt but if you got one that is a bit off on set-up then that's easiy fixed if you like setting up an electric. Cheers.
Sounds pretty good! As far as the bad reviews go, buying a guitar online is always a risk. There are bound to be a few lemons in the bunch. One thing I did notice is the headstock very reminiscent of the Leo Jaymz Tempest model. Same factory possibly? Anyway, great video Dude! EVH Rawk!
Very impressed with the Westcreek Brand, I love when you do the Dives I love the way it sounds Good Job 👍 Stanger, And Remember EVERYONE LIKE, SUBSCRIBE AND SHARE THE VIDEO, That's what I'm doing YOU ROCK BROTHER.
Just wondering.. you ever try floating the bridge on a guitar like this? Curious if it stays in tune after pulling UP on the stick.. I'd buy ANY budget guitar that can pull that off 🤘 Kool review though.. nice job👍
I just won this guitar and did an unboxing, haven’t played through yet. Initial impression was decent, it was used for a review on another channel so not quite new just slight imperfection where stripping meets the pickup cavities and right by the 3 way like you stated. But it was free for me😎🤙
Anytime you get a guitar made in China, it's a crap shoot. Out of 100 guitars you may have 10 that went through QC and the inspector said "no way' but the boss at the top said... who cares, pass it and move on to the next one. China uses CNC machines to make these guitars and necks. So, labor expense is much lower. Assembly lines are put in play. It's almost like a car factory in the way these guitars are made. Leo Jaymz may be the exception. Cool video. I'm subbing ya. IYV is a South Korean owned guitar maker, but the guitars are made in Vietnam. I own an IYV guitar and a Westcreek Revenge. The tailpiece on my Westcreek guitar has Epiphone stamped on the bottom side. After a little work, the Revenge sounds fantastic. Expensive guitars are just guitars with a huge price tag. I just got a Donner DST 400 yesterday. It has a solid Alder body and a big steel block and high output pickups. Killer guitar, and I paid 179 for it... on sale of course. I have to hand it to China; they make some fine guitars.
This was a really noisy review.. but good noise ..inspiring noise and really kinda metalish..😂 this channel is the best… EVER! that Westcreek sounded way better than what I also read in the reviews and they even dropped the price on it You made it SCREAM! Thanks man ! Keep shredding and doing noisy stuff 🎸🎸🎸😎
Well Now! That is a purdeee little thing there. Does she have any I.D on her,,,lol No seriously my first right off the batI would say perks ,,,the spoke truss Rod relief at the beck joint👍 color scheme 👍 headstock looks like a shredders friend, I will say 25.5 radius. The hand shake looks pretty good for high register playing,,,hey ,,,,you can always update pickups, electronics, nut, crap even the bridge can get Something special but I see a great big ol yeah!!👍😎🤙
Have the JX20 Native Black and White and also the JX50 Black Yellow . Both came with high actions . Lowered strings / reintonated and wahlahh. You are a pretty young lad so you wouldn't know anything about being a teen in the mid seventies and the crappy choices we had for guitars . At these price ranges and all the features these things come with , it is hard to bitch . I love the rounded frets.. sharp frets have always been a pet peeve of mine ..specially the sprouting . My wife just gave me the Leo Jaimz Tempest and again-- I was freaking out - The guitar I happen to get, feels like a guitar that would have been set up by the manufacturer in order to send it to a reviewer like you , for them to get high praises and sell many . Zero complaints on that baby ! Stay safe !!!!
Had the same issue with my Floyd Rose bridge with new strings. I took awhile for the break in but it is good now. This seems like a good guitar and it looks good 👍
The beauty part of amazon? You buy a guitar and if the parts aren't up to their standards? Upgrade the freakin parts ffs! Bones wasn't up to snuff so i got a bone nut and grovers(the stock ones were crap) its good now,if the tuners arent good? Same concept,get some grovers or gotoh locking tuners,ah duh? Lol! great review as always dave
I just discovered your channel and man I gotta tell you I liked your presentation and getting us the stats on the guitar! Keep up the good fight and keep on rocking!
I think this dude likes gear and acquiring gear more than he likes actually playing and practicing the gear. I've known lots of dudes like that in my 3 decades of playing guitar. I know a guy who owns multiple Jems and multiple 'R series', Gibson LP reissues and can't play anything other than power chords. hehe.
@Dave6SS hehe. We all have gear acquisition syndrone, dude. But you take the cake hehe. I have a lot of guitars..but not many amps. You have a ton of both! I see nothing wrong with it. I was stating that I think you like gear more than playing. I'll admit..a few of my guitar, I could just put them on a stand a look at them. I get it. hehe
Nice! But; I took your advice and just ordered a trans Blue Grote LP copy like the black one you reviewed. Already have a Strat (as well as several super Strats), and that's enough of those for me. Although, I've been wanting/needing a nice light'ish' LP copy. You and Grote won me over! Ill get a Fesley FLP350 later when they're back in stock! Thanks for your reviews and your channel! 😉
