Would love to have an ITB podcast to listen to in the car!

@intheblues 21 день назад

Thanks so much for the support. I uploaded this to iTunes and Spotify, so it should show up if it hasn't already. :)

@paulwhiteside1805 22 дня назад

Yours is still head and shoulders above most RU-vid guitar review channels, Shane. It's all down to presentation, your personality, and the content being succinct. Really enjoy your honesty and optimism. Great stuff! 😎🎸👍

@intheblues 22 дня назад

Thanks for the kind words, Paul. Many thanks mate!

@NovaRedBaron 18 дней назад

I think that sometimes people make a change in order to keep themselves motivated to keep playing and practicing. We like trying something new and shiny. I guess the secret is to know what gear you are truly attached to and hang onto it. I like the honest no nonsense approach of this channel. 🎸👍🙂

@jroobz 22 дня назад

it's such a tiny detail but having rolled edges on the entry level fenders is a great move

@shanetx81 21 день назад

I am really bothered by sharp fretboard edges, I’ve tried and not bonded with 3-4 Mexican fenders. I guess I’m cursed by having started out with a well worn heritage from the 80s. I finally talked myself into a rosewood board so I can roll it myself if I don’t like the feel, and had actually just bought a Jimmy Page mirror tele off reverb the day before the player II series was announced or I’d probably have driven an hour to the guitar stores today to try out a player 2 if they’re in store yet. I can’t wait to get my hands on my new guitar, but I’ll probably still want to try out a player 2 one of these days.

No Left handed basses is a massive L. Bad enough we get left out of other product lines, but they just couldn't resist gutting the line that actually gave us some options. Really wanted a lefty offset (JM), and a lefty mustang bass. Wouldn't care if they only offered them in the standard black. But nah, Fender just has to shaft us more than usual even though other companies much smaller can somehow make different left hand models.

@keestoft250 22 дня назад

You're a safe harbour for lefties. Followed your channel for years now. Keep doing what you do. 👍

Thank you 😀

@BluesDeville 21 день назад

You've already bought that guitar in your mind, Shane. Just throw down the cash for it before it's gone. My biggest regrets are not what I sold, but what I didn't buy when I had the chance. One of which was a PRS SE 277 semi-hollow with the soapbars. I saw a gorgeous one at the guitar shop one day. The most beautiful tight flame maple I've ever seen and the color was perfect. I sat on it for one night, went back to get it the next day and it had sold 10 minutes before I got there. I ended up buying a used one a few months ago, but it's not even close to that one I saw. There's some lucky person out there with it. I should have bought that first one the moment I saw it.

@coffeerocker1429 21 день назад

Mate I just want to reach out and say I love your podcast. No bullshit straight talking info and best of all from an Australian perspective which is so different because of pricing down here. Well done. Keep em coming!

@Newnodrogbob 18 дней назад

I think you’re right about modeling. Because what they are trying to do is copy tube amps, they’re at the point where the processing has gotten as perfect as it can get, or very close to it. Yeah, people can hear the difference, but the difference at this point is really in the physical amplification, not the modeling. It sounds different because it’s coming out of the PA, and not the guitar cab, etc. The differences going forward are going to be how much stuff you can put in the chain, unit size, and user interface…

@JonsGuitarGarage 21 день назад

@chrisgmurray3622 22 дня назад

I once sold a TS808 to a good friend, but asked to buy ut back from him a year later. Luckily he agreed, and twenty-five years later I still have it. Many more things I've sold then regretted doing so, but was unable to buy back, ir even buy another of the same type. A beautiful Les Paul deluxe, a Vox AC30 STR (head), a Marshall JCM 800 channel switching head with reverb, and an early sixties rosewood neck white strat, which I traded for a Les Paul custom that was in pieces, that once I finished having it rebuilt was disappointing in tone. The list goes on. Most times I sold something in order to buy something else, then found the original item too expensive to replace. Talk about seller's regret!

@steventhomas231 22 дня назад

The left-hand player 2 series look great until you realise that out of 3 choices of colours 2 are regurgitated colours from the last player series in the white and sunburst and then just one other colour. Waited years for an update and this is all we get unless you've deep pockets. Fender dont care at all for left handed players.

@kanjinha 22 дня назад

They do it on purpose so you buy the step up

@eugenehavens 22 дня назад

Fender loves money, and if making more LH options led to bigger sales, it would definitely happen.

@BluesDeville 21 день назад

I'm a right-handed player. But, as a left-handed golfer, I feel your pain.

@michaelmetal71 21 день назад

@Stevethomas i gave up on fender along time ago because they refused to offer us a left-handed strat with humbuckers in it or even a telecaster with double humbuckers in it, for the money I’ll stick to Schecter and Keisel guitars two companies actually care about the left-hand community

@eugenehavens 21 день назад

@@michaelmetal71 Kissel guitars are amazing, but for that price or less you can get any guitar or bass at the Fender Mod Shop in a left hand model.

Great pod cast Shane.. interesting to hear how your tastes have changed. Been following you for a while and been playing even longer, I know what you mean about thin necks thick necks and wanting everything the same to eventually not caring and just seeing how the guitar makes you feel and therefore play. Same here … keep them coming!

Hi Shane, please keep positive, and understand that we love your video's. You have some of the best content, and your reviews, I trust 100%. Thanks for what you do :)

@spokes28 15 дней назад

There was a guy back in the 60s that took a right hander and just flipped the strings on it and played it as a lefty. He did a fair job with it.

@belmont93 16 дней назад

What’s crazy is I follow your other RU-vid channel with the tech and cameras and I never knew that you played guitar. It must been me not paying attention. I wanna learn how to play guitar. I’m over here looking for RU-vid channels about which one’s better the Strat or Tele and you pop up.🤷🏾‍♂️

@johnmccormick3668 22 дня назад

You’re a great guitar player Shane. I love listening to you play and I’m always curious about how you get the tones you do. Maybe you could show us how to find the spot on certain amplifiers how to tweak the guitar in the amplifier to get more tonalities out of them.

Life is about finding out what you DON’T want. Intelligent people know this, and move on when they see it. The fact that your channel has evolved so much over the years confirms you’re following a real purpose, which is all about enjoying what you’re doing rather than doing something to make money…a half life. Re that 2nd hand strat from the US. Just go with the biggest inner YES…and it seems you know what that yes is. Your content has improved a lot over the years Shane…keep up the good work!

@andrewbecker3700 22 дня назад

I agree. RU-vid is getting pretty watered down this last year. I think your hard-core followers are still gonna tune in for the angle you take on budget gear. The reality is, that most of us live in a budget friendly world. We appreciate the realistic approach you have. Watching kids demo guitars they can't possibly afford, won't EVER change what real players want. Real players mostly just want function over form. If it's great to play, feel and tone wise. That should be paramount. Recently bought my first 6pt. full floating tremelo equipped guitar. Has a skinny neck and everything! NF3. It's a very well spec'd and constructed guitar. Definitely trying some new stuff. Only guitar I can think of that I'd buy another after selling. SG Modern. Now I have a Revstar. End of story.

@keyoguitar 22 дня назад

Thinking about the guitar that you might re-buy: I think you mentioned that this was your first guitar, and this rang a bell with me: could this just be a case of nostalgia, and perhaps curiosity? I went through a similar thing. Early in my playing career I had a Gibson S1 (some say Marauder), and I remember liking it but wanting something better: eventually I sold it. A while back, some 50 yrs later, I started thinking that I wanted to get one again, partly to see how good it was. It's hard to find one under £1500, so I decided to forget about it: apparently they only made 8000.

@woodythump8741 20 дней назад

Great video and one of my eternal dilemma's. 5 years ago I bought a Fender American Original 60's Telecaster. Loved the sound of the guitar but the nut was badly cut so I sent it back and brought a Les Paul. I've fretted over that decision for all 5 of those years. Just given way and ordered a mint model in Lake Placid Blue. I feel at peace.!

@dmac3316 19 дней назад

Cool video. Interesting topics as I traded away my HXStomp but regret it and now looking at buying another one. I liked the Stomp interface and it does what I want for a still decent enough price.

The player 2 Mustang w/o trem would be great with medium flats. Jim Campilongo uses a duo sonic and seems to have fun burning up that short scale. Thanks for the reviews!

I remember that strat! It's the one that introduced me to the Zexcoil pickups, which I have in two axes. One of which has sadly just sold, but a man must do what he must do sometimes hahaha

@kurtz1993 21 день назад

Hey, Shane! About the modeleres, I agree with you. Sound wise I think that most sound almost the same. The IRs in the units make the difference, and if they have an IR loader and you use it with your own IRs they may sound the exact same. I think it comes down to the options the unit provides in terms of I/O, software features (like snapshots in Line 6 land), the effects you want, and how complex you want your signal chains. But not on the sound of the unit, IMO. The models the companies capture usually vary a bit in EQ sensitivity and gain structure. But, tbh, you can really make them sound the same by tweaking the knobs 🤷🏽‍♂️ Glad to see you here, again!

@fredjaeger690 12 дней назад

Can’t speak for the lefties, but the righty Pro ii is the only strat I truly love playing after many many fails.

@minxlabrada 22 дня назад

Fender Player 2s are nice guitars! Then again, I bought a MIM standard Fat Strat from a guy in a band called Green Ripper for $400. As far as recycling gear, well, I had an Ibanez RG470 MIK I sold. Always wanted another RG. Eventually added an RG-something with a Aqua Blue sparkle finish and Double-Locking trem. And I also added an RG with a Dragon-Eye stained flame maple arch top and a fixed bridge. Both amazing instruments and super sweet. Feel more like an upgrade than a replacement. That old MIK RG I had was beat up. These are almost new condition.

@Lomoholga2 21 день назад

As a lefty I imagine it would be more difficult to sell a nice guitar. I’d go for the 50th anniversary strat if I was you😊

@DougMen1 21 день назад

Some of the gear I've sold was because I needed money, and other times it was because i wasn't as happy with some guitars as others I had. The ones that I've had the most of were several Mexican Standard Strats, several Squier CV 60s Strats (I currently have a CV 70s one loaded with PV65 pickups), several MIJ Fernandes LE2 60s reissues, a few used Am Std Strats, and 3 Peavey Classic 30 amps.

@honkytonkinson9787 22 дня назад

I have a deluxe strat from 2003 with the noiseless pickups. I think they sound good. Eventually I might change them out for real single coils but they’re completely fine for now

@Lowtech14 22 дня назад

I’ve sold and repurchased too much gear to count. Not the exact item, but same make and model. Two that come to mind are Peavey Classic 30 amp and Road Worn Telecaster. Fender MIM guitars are awesome playing and sounding. My issues w them is they’ve gone up in price a lot, and they are heavy.

@retromacman620 21 день назад

Other channels will do too many straight reviews and they review everything. The best practice, I think is to do follow ups and comparisons, reviewing products people ask about or suit you... you do all these things and more. Stands out above the noise. Anyway I'm thinking I might try to get s player Jaguar while they're cheaper now used. The player ii feels like a step up, but the previous iteration is a real good used value the past couple years

@carlosalves4444 20 дней назад

Shane Bro, just an idea with all the cost of living crisis going on, especially here in Australia with, inflation, gear is getting more expensive, In my opinion you should definitely continue best bang for buck gear series, guitars, amps, general gear etc .Shootouts are always popular too. imho🤔. Help us save some dough bro.. 🤑

@johnfalzon 22 дня назад

What do you think about the chambered body options? I’m looking forward to those

@ThomasBN4G 21 день назад

Fender, in 2016 moved all their manufacturing equipment from the Corona plant to Ensenada and got all new machines. That's why the Pro and elite lines were terrible and the MIMs improved. 8 years later both sites have finally learned how to use their machines. Thus the Ultra Luxe and Player II.

@Andre_Ons_Marshall 21 день назад

There is more of the Player series coming out later in the year including more left hand models and chambered mahogany bodies. Saw in on Andertons channel.

@bradconklin2878 21 день назад

Yeah, back in the day we didn't have 900 choices of decent affordable instruments. We played what we could find/afford. That has allowed me to not much care about neck shape, fret count, pickup config ... and so on. At this point it's more about wether I connect with the essence of the guitar.

@AnkurWow 22 дня назад

Bought and returned/sold the EP Booster pedal 3 times, the MXR Micro Amp pedal twice, the original Fender Player guitar 4 times, the Monoprice/Harley Benton Stage Right 5- and 15-watt amps twice... Yeah, I agree that I don't care about neck shape as much anymore, or about modding guitars.

Hey Shane I like your channel because you do different stuff, speaking of which how about a review of one of those wicked looking in-house guitars you showed us when you were doing a music shop visit. You can talk yourself into anything if you try hard enough matey. Digital tone may improve but will we be able to hear the difference? Doubtful.

@dividedbytimestudios 22 дня назад

Player Two is a nice comeback, rosewood boards should always be available… I would say modelers are probably going in the direction of Impulse Response amps and FX…. Taking that same concept of creating speaker can IR’s, I believe that’s the only way forward

@petersouthwell5971 22 дня назад

Modeling has peaked IMHO. Once Line 6 Helix came out.... The modelers got good enough to no longer sound different then amps.. They're pretty spot on. In fact.. I bet most people can't tell the difference when listening to the playback. Once a thing is functionally in place.. And works and sounds good... What to make it better? You know what Ive noticed.. Sometimes gear sits because I just don't know how to use it right. Case and point Im now finally good enough to play past the 12th fret. Once that happened... I realized many of my guitars weren't even intonated. So now there's guitars I thought I hated but were just not setup.

@BluesDeville 21 день назад

I do agree. Modeling has come a long way. I used a POD XT for years and thought it was great until I plugged back into a tube amp and realized how flat and digital that POD XT sounded. I stayed away from modelers for years after that. But, after hearing the latest in modelers, it's audibly impossuble for an audience to tell the difference. However... As a player, I still get a better feel and vibe from tube amps and their natural characteristics such as sag (compression) and natural overdrive at higher volumes that I still don't get from modelers. Would I tour with a modeler? Absolutely. But, when I'm the player and the only audience member in the room, I'll take a tube amp any day.

@petersouthwell5971 21 день назад

@@BluesDeville I have a Fender Hotrod Deluxe 60w tube. Honestly it's the standard for me and that amp isn't going anywhere. Basically I take my Line 6 Helix and make it sound as close as possible to my one tube amp. I like Tubes too. Not sure if it's because Im comforted by them or they actually sound better. I guess what keeps me on line 6.. Is Im paranoid of blowing a tube and loosing my sound. Rember 2020 or some time around there when tubes were almost impossible to find? That freaked me out a bit. So I went looking for an acceptable solid state.. Just incase.

@petersouthwell5971 21 день назад

Ill admit that I consider Line 6 Helix an acceptable substitute for an Amp... But I agree that tubes seem to have a certain dynamics to them. I also like how tubes clean up when you turn your guitar volume down. Line 6 isn't as smooth in its dynamics.. Now strength of Line 6 is it's reliable. It's always going to sound the same. Ive had days that my tube amp sounded so good it was outrageous... For whatever reason.. but I wasn't able to reproduce it.

@BluesDeville 21 день назад

@@petersouthwell5971 Agreed on all of your points. I will eventually buy another modeler for the reasons you stated to have one. Also... Those days where your tube amps sounds amazing and other days not so much. I have those days, too. It's kind of those dynamics that I love about tube amps. Same reason I like germanium fuzzes. Their dynamics can change and my playing vibe kind of changes with them.

@ericjenks9596 22 дня назад

I’ve bought and sold so much stuff over the years, lol. I don’t usually regret selling stuff, but I’ve definitely bought things back when it makes sense over the years. Can only own so much stuff at one time. Definitely some pedals and amps that I would buy back if I had space. Going through that dilemma right now actually. Just got a 64 Vibroverb Custom. Wondering if I should keep or sell my Super Sonic 60. Both close enough to the same wattage that they fill a similar niche for me. The Super Sonic is way more versatile on the fly, but the Vibroverb is just phenomenal clean or overdriven. Trying to justify keeping both, 😂. With fewer than 1000 vibroverbs made, I’m not parting with that. Too hard to find another.

I actually kinda like that Aged Cherry Burst. It's very soft, not as aggressive as a full sunburst. I don't think it looks cheap either. I do think that Aquatone Blue looks kinda cheap though, even though blue is my favourite colour. It reminds me of the entry level Kramer Focus in Teal. It's probably a really nice colour and the picture just isn't doing it justice. 😅

I saw the “upgrades” in features for the new Player II. Not feeling it other than colors. Now bring in locking tuners, roasted maple necks, and stainless steel frets….. then you’ll have a real upgrade.

I hope they put proper lefty pots in the player2s

@intheblues 22 дня назад

Fender are usually pretty good with that these days, did you find them reverse wound or was the taper wrong?

@EricMerrow 22 дня назад

Shane has a great question - if it’s just acting in a reverse manner, that is an easy fix. You could swap the outer 2 lugs and the pot will work in the correct manner

@jeffroq 22 дня назад

@@intheblues My experience. The player, player + American Original and the Vintage II have righty pots wired backwards so the rotation is correct but the taper is at the wrong end. The Pro 2 has proper lefty (reverse taper) pots.

that’s fine that Fender offers a lefty strat and tele in the player series 2 BUT they don’t give us either one with humbuckers only single coils i’d love to have a tele with 2 humbuckers guess i’ll have to get one from either schecter or kiesel if i want a tele HH

I recently sold my Ibanez 7 string that I had modified. I sold it for an Epiphone Firebird, which I love and it sounds fantastic. But I wanted to buy my Ibanez back, but some swine bought it before I could buy it back? I really like the black Mustang, and I haven't got a Jazzmaster, so I'd like one of them!

I wouldn't mind getting another Duesenberg Starplayer TV. I sold mine a few years ago and have regretted it since.

@joetroncoso7292 22 дня назад

yes, I agree with the spread sheet idea but there is one item that I will NEVER purchase again because I have had many and always hoped I would change my mind but I am absolutely done with ANY stratocaster guitar regardless of any mods.

@Michael-dl1qv 21 день назад

Grab the guitar. It’s calling you for a reason. Worst case scenario, you sell it again for the last time (maybe 😂). Love the show. Keep up the great work.

I say right away - past me. This whole series has vintage tuners, which I really don't like. Which is what I wrote about in the official Facebook group.

I bought a headrush recently, and I have a mesa boogie combo. Looking to sell the combo now, because maintenance on MB is kind of a nightmare.edit: wrt player series II, wish they had a medium or short scale with humbuckers. Feels like a missed opportunity

I watched a Fender representative doing an interview on the new Player II guitar line and he said they stayed with the original Players series pickups at least in the strat guitars which I'm ok with...

I have some regrets of selling things, like an ibanez LP and a jcm800 non master volume. nearly sold my current amp when i bought a headrush. glad i didn't, got rid of the headrush and went back to real amp. as for modelling, i recon the boss pedal, ir loader or what ever it's called would be as far as i go in that world again. as a back up or practice tool.
