Jack, great demo man you just helped me a lot, I've been looking at the gretsch G5260 and the reverend descent w and after this video I will be picking one up soon thanks for the amazing playing and review!!!
Great stuff. I appreciate it. The Bass V! and the Rivolta caught me the most. Super cool guitars. The Gretch sounded better than expected and the Rev was pretty great too.
Reverend chisel pickups are for me the best. Great for cleans and dirty. But where they shine is the band mix. I have lots of guitars Fender, Gibson, Chapman. My band mates always says you don't need another guitar you ve got your Rev...
lol it's like the algorithm wants me to buy one of the baritones I've been looking at instead of leaving my jazzmaster tuned low...like super low. A to A lmao
Wow :o What a good video ! You are the dude who convinced me to buy a baritone. All guitars are great, but my favorite sound is the Gretsh ! I bought the one with the bigsby, it will be home soon i just can’t want ! You are playing so nicely, i guess i Won’t have the sound you have simply cause i’m pretty far from your guitar skill, but i’m sure i’ll have fun ! Thanks man
Get some Montys relic wax, it’s designed to make the wood on guitars darker. You simply apply it over the fretboard, leave it for a few minutes and then wipe of the excess and then you have a permanently darkened fretboard.
It's worth staying away from the budget models , - like the Squiers, - and this coming from a non technical , " Garage" player.Because of the elements involved, - because it is between a guitar and a bass, - it helps, long term, to be able to set it up, and have it play well.Squier ,- which I am usually a fan of, - use a dated, rough, approach to the designs that are a bit sloppy and noisy for "serious" application.I've tried several, and they are just not useable tools.(Compare the Squier to the Fender models of what are essentially the same specs, and you'll get the point.)Certainly, if you're going to drop a grand, you should go with Reverend,Rivolta, or Gretsch, - who put some thought and care into what the design required.( The Squier models have become absurdly overpriced, as they are seemingly fashionable).Sometimes, you can't get by recycling ideas and parts intended for use elsewhere. It's a rare disappointment within their product line ( IMO).
I agree. In the case of this Bass VI, it is rad, like really-really rad. However, it takes a lot of setup. In my experience, a new nut and thicker strings for the sake of maintaining E standard tuning. Later I might replace the bridge as well, and many do. You wish Squier was up front about it. With that said, I was pragmatic and I knew that going into it. Also, I have that Gretsch with the Bigbsy and it's dope too. Out of the box it plays well. I guess Squier isn't looking yet to make $600 instruments, and so--in some instances--they release instruments that require after-market upgrades to get them to play right (the CV Jazzmaster comes to mind as well).
@@SkunkDozer l recently acquired one of the newer MiM Jazzmasters, - which aren't cheap; def a step up from the Squiers, - like the Mascis I had previously, - but still had to replace the BS bridge saddles.You'd think at the price point they could include the slightly more expensive barrel saddles on it; like I said, generally a fan, but some of their decisions are beyond me.
