Whether you like the relic job or not, the fact that you get stainless steel frets and locking tuners for the price is definately worth it! Too bad Artist guitars aren't available in Canada.

@natemichaelmusic 28 дней назад

I pre-ordered one of these at release and its excellent. Rosewood board, steel frets, handwound pickups. Quality.

Man, for under 500 bucks, it sounds pretty darn good in a mix. The relic job doesn't bother me at all. It has a vibe.

If you like Teles, that seems like a no-brainer. That spec, that's a steal - even after you spring for a half-decent case.

@shadowminister4090 29 дней назад

Yeah, I think most relic'd guitars are overdone; this one is no different. That said, if you want something to hang in a display cabinet, buy something shiny. I quite like this new range from Artist; stainless steel, lockers, strap-locks, etc. There is a lot to like. Thanks Shane (& Ben). 😊

@marklisa17 28 дней назад

It's great to hear guys like Ben on your channel Shane. It's very fluid and flowing like water in a river. Is the sound of the Artist tele compatible to your Fender tele? Thx. for your efforts Shane. ❤

@pyratoothNL 26 дней назад

Very nice. The neck, frets and locking tuners is a great start/ But that bridge pickup has a great character. Nice job. But it seems Artists guitars have a different availability of models depending on where you are in the world. There relic models are on the AU site but not US or UK (which are also different from each other). Either way the price point of the instruments is great.

@johnplaystheguitar123 29 дней назад

Goof channel bloke. Love the Aussies. Met some back in the military years ago in Somalia africa. I myself would never buy a relic guitar. Id prefer to relic it myself by playing it. Take care ❤️🙏🇺🇲💯🎸🎸 its like buying them new pair of pants with holes in them absurd Nonsense 🥶🤢

@tonepilot 27 дней назад

Ben’s a very melodic player. Nice addition to your vid. Guitar’s great too but I’d replace the bridge I think. A bit too shrill for me. Could be the amp settings though.

@paulburton5150 28 дней назад

I think this guitar looks, and sounds, great. Unless it’s a £1500+ fender I don’t mind a relic job, if it’s done well i often prefer it to a thick poly finish. Artist look to have done a good heavy relic job on this one. Something you can rock hard without worrying about a few additional knocks and bangs. But what really wins me over are the ss frets, rosewood board, and hardware choices. Are these available in the UK?

@ozflyer1 27 дней назад

its NOT rosewood its eco rosewood

@brotherhawk3228 28 дней назад

Has anyone heard of J&D Luthiers guitars ? I live in Thailand and just picked up a gold top p90 for 175 bucks .

@jimmcdougall9973 29 дней назад

Just no. I like my guitars shiny and new, and try my utmost to keep them that way. Even my 1978 Gibson shows far less wear and tear and it has been worked hard. I suppose relic’ed guitars are a reflection of the youth, wanting it all without putting in any work (flak coming). The guitar sounds great. Hopefully they make the same model without the relic work (dragging by a rope it from a truck for a few miles).

@intheblues 29 дней назад

They do have an AT73 with a Paisley finish that looks pretty wild. :)

@ArtistGuitarsDemo 29 дней назад

We will have this model in a non-relic Nitro finish in a few months

@colhutchins 29 дней назад

@@ArtistGuitarsDemo Yesssssss! Great to hear, thanks guys/girls at Artist, that was going to be my comment i.e. how about a non-relic version :-) . What colours will the Nitro versions be available in, same as relic or different? Also, off topic, I got an Artist LP59 Apricot a few months back, bloody beautiful guitar!

@brin57 28 дней назад

My only issue with this relic is that it's a stencil job. All the Artist tele relics look exactly the same ! I'd have to do a bit more to personalise it. Also sounds a bit on the thin side, so a pickup upgrade would be on the cards.

@silverwings1843 29 дней назад

Hilarious!!!! I just spent days repairing a large chip paint chip the size of a quarter on the tail edge of a black strat. Looks like I went the wrong way with it. Guess I should have tied it to my lawn mower and drug it around the yard.

@helotaxi 28 дней назад

How can it be the “ultimate” if it’s built backwards? “Relic” finish is an acquired taste that I don’t think I’ll ever acquire. A guitar that earned its wear and has a history is one thing, but just beating up a brand new guitar and then charging/paying extra for it…not something I can get behind. Scars and wear on a tool tell a story. The only story this tells is “We turned a guitar that we’d have to sell as a ‘blemish’ or ‘B-stock’ into a guitar we can sell for more than one we didn’t screw up on”.

@isitreallyisitreally1756 28 дней назад

Well appointed instrument but looks awful , just awful , it’s a marketing scam for lazy players and posers , I’ve been lucky to play some early 60’s well gigged guitars and NONE of them looked like this or other fake aged snake oil guitars , kings new clothes with six strings attached 😂

@ozflyer1 27 дней назад

Wake up dude....Ive got guitars that go back to the late 1920s...and numerous from the late 60s~early 70s....the ones Ive gigged with the most and travelled with the most now show their own style. Bonnie Raiit bought a 60s strat and got her tech to strip it.....wonder why??? GO TAKE A LISTEN. "marketing scam"????? wtf drugs are you on. Go google SRVs strat..... or rory's strat and come back and tell us they look fake. You have played NO well gigged guitars form the 60s mate....stop the dribble.
