Cheap Amazon Guitars, Are They Worth The Money? 

Well who couldn’t resist the “Latested Design” of their “Elecratric Guitar?” I’m intrigued!

I wasn’t in the market for an elecratric guitar, but the latested design looks incredible. I can’t commune with souls playing my current guitars.

Always good to have the latested design of an elecratric guitar.

cheap guitars are getting better all the time,plus it's a great platform for future upgrades.Thanks for sharing!

Great video Dane! I like the fact you had a friend demo the guitar, and asked his thoughts.

I'd be scared of opening that box... Very spoopy lol 👻. The satin finish and maple neck's a nice combination tho. Looks like something that'd be fun to use as a platform for a project

I have this guitar and it's really not bad. Stays in tune and plays well

It’s a good charvell copy flat Radius hard mounted pickups fast neck profile with set up work pickup change it’s a lot like a charvell I would get one and fix it up put a fat brass or or steel trem block on it I think I could Make it sing you could put a better neck on it’s not a stock strat style the tuning problem is the slots in the nut are to narrow widen them and lube it no moor tuning problems.

I'm a very old guitarist now. But I used a Drafting stensil (open slotted, thin metal) that would expose the fret while protecting the fretboard wood.

Neat trick on testing those ohms. Never thought about testing it off the input to the guitar.

Gotta commune with my soul at some point, guess it might as well be now! Great vid. Your voice communes with Dee Dee at various moments.

Fesley is not a company but a trademark owned by a Chinese corporation that has other product lines such as sports equipment and toys. That guitar doesn't look bad at all but if they really want to compete in a saturated market they will have to come up with something really special and start with the basic strategy of creating series, serializing the instruments, etc. This reminds me of the first edition of the Firefly guitars, also from China, that was sold out within months because the quality of the guitars was outstanding.

I was already planning to get this guitar next payday before I saw your video... so I pulled it off the cart, and used your link to put it back on. lol the cost does not affect me one way or the other, but I'm good with supporting your channel.

Welcome back Troglodytes! Today on the bench we have a genuine 2023 Fesley!

HSS vintage output. 22 fret satin finish. Snap in bar. Klusons. For $129? Amazing! Thank you, Zim!

Thanks for your honesty

I use the same Dollar store door mats for my makeshift bench repairs A key stand , a glass desk top section 2 doormats ,,,,,, WAHLAH

it doesnt sound in tune even when youve tuned it it sounds terrible , even for an affordable guitar it sounds terrible im my honest opinion this is the type of guitar that would discourage a youngster an affordable squire would be better option but i dont know what you paid for it looks like cheap plastic , this is only my opinion I just think this isnt up to the job but what do i know edit i just checked and its 219 dollars id rather save a little more i think , it is a good video to show you what you get for the money though

Seeing it is meant as a beginner guitar the box is no lie. The writing on the box. This guitar seems leaps better than many of our first beginner guitars and did not those guitars do for all of you what he box says ? 🍻No doubt this one will too, if it is your introduction to guitar. 🎸🧡

Nice to hear Kirk Hammett's doing reviews of Elecratric Guitars. Such a wholesome guy!

I bought 2 Grote guitars, I really like the Gibson es125t copy, the thinline tele copy was OK too. The es 125t copy needed the pickup raised to make it sound good, now it sounds good plugged in but even better as an acoustic. I also like the Donner DST 400 strat copy a lot.

I went with Donner, for my HSS strat-ish guitar choice. A friend of mine bought a fesley recently. Seeing that one, and yours here, I'd say they're improving the LA Tested Design. Now, at least you can choose with elecratic guitars. Autocratic ones shoot you for missed notes

Elecratric, lol, that's what I noticed when you were going though the box. They should have added an F to make the word craft, would make it seem clever imho, lol. In any case, for the money seems really nice. I remember blowing a lot more cash on my first guitar and that one was truly a POS. If I would have gotten something like this, especially after Z's setup instead, my early guitar journey would have been a lot nicer.

😳 the verbiage on the box had me expecting you to experience a life changing event 😂 Thanks for sharing this nearly out-of-body other worldly adventure. I know I’LL never be the same. 😂 👍 Honestly- not bad for the $.

What a horrible spot for the 5 way blade switch.

Is there a market for guitars like this with a few upgrades and a good setup? I have a lot of fun tinkering and I love making something cheap play and sound good...but I wonder if I can flip them once they're dialed in.

You too can be Elvis Fesley, for less then $150 bucks 🤣👍🎸

I have this guitar, change the tuners. The pick ups sound great to me stock.

I see a Hamer Standard case or bass case. Do you have a USA standard in that case? I have one of those cases and 0400 lives in it. Scarab

What would the best amp to get for this guitar for a beginner?

I remember that in the 1980's even cheap guitar were expensive. They were also really poor most of the time. I paid a lot my not-so-cheap Epiphone back then! Not even a solid top, it was pure coated pile wood. That was the only range of cheap guitar made by the big two players. The cheap guitars were unbraded stuff, made in Italy, England. China was not making guitars yet.

Great looking guitar! White pickups are awesome 😎.

What is that silver thing on the face of your OHM meter?

What about this guitar VS. a Jet Strat or super Strat model??? Which is best ???

Watching you dress the fretts on that Fesley, I need to know, Do u use like a beveled type of file or a wedged type of file?; What file do you use on fretts?

That’s a rad guitar. Back in the day I’d have killed for a guitar like that with a humbucker, maple neck, and whammy bar.

It appears to have 'staggered' Tuners. A good feature on a budget Guitar.

#Engrish 😂 Google translate jacked that box description up baaad...wonder how it sounds in Mandarin? 😂 Good idea to pump the patreon & Amazon link 💪🏼appreciate you, Dane RAWK!!! 🤘🏼

Could it be Fesley, rhymes with Presley?

They make a copy of the famous George Lynch Bengal tiger but the bridge is a string thru I want one but can't find one

Right at 1:00 check out the spelling of 'ELECTRIC'...ELECRATRIC. Now that's funny.

I found a listing on Amazon for that guitar for $149.85 in 6 different colors.

So wait, the words under "elecratric guitar" and "latested design" (which he pronounced as they were meant to be) cracked him up? 🤣

My first ELECTRATRIC Guitar ever

At least they nailed the "Charvel copycat" look. 😂

Communing with souls? That is one powerful and scary elecratic guitar! But on a more serious note, too bad none of these Chinese guitar makers offer a hardtail option.

Oh that measly fesley!

Less talky more playing .

I don't hear any fret buzz, which i think is also what most reviewers find.

I got one of their straps. I like it alot

only the highest of "High Intergrity" here

The guitar looks fine and for a cheap guitar I am no in an assisted living center and I have no money😊my son stole all of my equipment when they moved me to the nursing home I just love my fender guitar but I had a 1960s version tele. Bye Thanks for sharing. George

Great Comment.

Sounds like a deal with the Devil to me

The only thing really bad is the control placement, why 3 knobs and a selector placed here ? Stupid, a classic control placement like an ibanez or a charvel would been great. It's a no go for me just for that reason.

It's FESS-ley, dammit!

Without the serial number and country of origin it's almost like this one got out of the factory by mistake.

you're turning into the fred sanford of the guitar world great dane !!!!!

These come out of a Fender factory just in case you want to know. 😉🙂

I wish these cheapy guitars came with fat vintage necks so I could get excited about them.

Fesly parent company of Jet guitars?

this was a good one lol

im a new subscriber I would love to visit your store

"Electratric" Guitar. 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

I am wishing I didn't have my physical disablities to hunt around for a good, cheap candidate of "China Cheapies" to just turn it into something decent "for the least" amount of money. To me, that would be a nice little adventure. It would be a Rags to Riches journey without a name.

It's much more fesley than I thought. A whole lotta feez for the buck.

But he didnt notice "electric" and "latest" are misspelled.

Feezly? Fezlee!

All of my guitars that I use are under 300 $ (€). Even on Stage, they are OK ;)

What is “elecratric?”

AIN'T IT JUST AIN'T IT 😜 lols..... this thing has a lot to live up to right out of the box....or not live up to....or may not be live at all.......

Its made in heaven.. lol

Still better than zuwei guitars

Looks like guitar fetish headstock

Supposedly this brand is made in the same factory as Squier.. 🤷‍♂

Evis Fesley dude

Electric is spelled wrong?? Wtf?? Well at least it'll feed my soul.....I guess

It should be called Measly

What a load of baloney on that box 😂

Fesley guitars....we put the soul in guitars........no, seriously we sacrifice one worker per guitar and trap their soul inside.

It'll make a nice fire... I would keep the gig bag though.

The cheap guitars are worth it if you are a RU-vid guitar review channel and don't care about actual good content. Any dope can spend $150 bucks on a crap guitar and try and sell us on it.

peoples republic of china.

Between the proper spelling and it’s soul how could you not start interacting with feasly life

Get some likker. You were burned. YOU BOUGHT IT?

Thats a waste of time and space. All guitars ain't good guitars fo show.

I think that makes me want not to buy it. I don't want anything touching my soul but god the lord jesus christ

Cheap "Amazon's" need touch ups and even upgrades SOMETIMES. Even so they are pound for pound better value for money invested. They have huge potential to equal the high enders which are NEVER worth as much as their ask price.

The words on the box remind me of instructions to an exorcism 😂

I think this is made in the Fender factory

no crap is still crap it does mater how cheap it is

I think this video might set some world record for how many times you can mispronounce a name. Is the name "Wesley" pronounced "Weesley?" Is the name "Leslie" pronounced "Leeslie?" Is the car maker Tesla pronounced Teesla? Was Elvis's last name pronounced "Preesley?" Then why in the world would Fesley be pronounced Feesley? It's "Fesley" with a short E vowel sound. You know, rhyming with Wesley, Leslie, or Elvis Presley. Derp. Sure, It's a minor and somewhat irrelevant gripe when it comes to the guitar itself, but when you say it literally like a 180 times in the first few minutes of the video, it's maddening. 🙄
