I don't think I've ever seen a guitar with all these unique features on it before! REALLY cool guitar! Great for anyone into blues, country, bluegrass, folk etc Guitar info: orangewoodguitars.com/products/juniper-sunburst?_pos=1&_sid=5500e252e&_ss=r Enjoy!

@flapjack413 7 месяцев назад

That rubber bridge goes against everything I've ever learned as a guitar maker, but it sounds damn cool none the less!

@KleyDeJong 7 месяцев назад

Lol it is wild. Great lengths to make the instrument resonate. I think it is notable that most rubber bridge guitars I've seen are parlors or cheaper vintage acoustics that don't resonate super well.

@josephbrewer7026 7 месяцев назад

I appreciate you taking time to give this guitar a review. Definitely not the sound I would ever have a use for. My curiosity made me weave a length of surgical tubing through the strings at the bridge of my Takamine CDE and acheived much the same muted tone.

Discovered your channel a couple of weeks ago. I like what you are doing. You get your information out there. You inform the people. You give your point of view. Most liked is you give samples of how instruments sound and play without going overboard. Love it! Lot of reviewers seem like they are making an excuse to play guitar on camera (don't care for that). Please keep the videos coming!

That's not how you would usually use a guitar like this. It's probably going to sound like a jazz electric semisolid unplugged mixed with a nylon sting guitar.

The rubber bridge dampens the acoustic output a lot. The electric tone is really the intended and best tone.

@jimmyjames2022 7 месяцев назад

Cool concept for this Juniper. I have a parlour guitar so I already love the size. Pretty choked down tone with both flat wound and the rubber bridge, belies what you'd expect from even a small form like the parlour. I heard the banjo tone you mentioned for sure though muted. I'd say this could make a good blues guitar but I'd like to hear this with wound strings and that rubber bridge.

@kevinsnyder4425 7 месяцев назад

I can hold my hand across my nylon string guitar and get the same sound - kinda like Willie Nelson playing "you were always on my mind " ( the solo part) !

@dlux703 7 месяцев назад

Just split a length of small rubber automotive vacuum hose up one side and slip it under the strings and over the saddle of any acoustic guitar. Small clear oxygen hose will work as well. Same effect without ANY modification, and save your money for something you REALLY want.

@fatroberto3012 7 месяцев назад

I would like to’ buy 2 quality potentiometers that fit there. What do you advise me?

@davidwood351 7 месяцев назад

I’m not real keen on the tones, I might try a rosewood bridge to add some clear tones in there. I really like those old blues tones from the 50’s, like John Lee Hooker’ acoustic work, or early Taj Mahal.

@petersage5157 7 месяцев назад

...so basically, it's a six-string baritone uke with a bridge mute? I've heard of people hunting for these. They're on a uke hunt. This 12-fret guitar design might benefit from putting the pickup at the bottom of the sound hole.

@FBerg5646 7 месяцев назад

You can just put a piece of rubber on the bridge of a regular acoustic. Pretty sure the sound will be similar.

@norseman61 7 месяцев назад

That’s funny. I thought having a rubber bridge would kill the sustain and mute the nice acoustic tones…. and I was right. Also, the finish on that top looks like a toy K-mart guitar. But like you said, it’s not meant to appeal to everybody; only those who want a cheap looking guitar that sounds like it’s broken.

@MichaelStoneham 6 месяцев назад

Hi did you actually do a sound sample without any affects so we could hear its natural tone?

@5minuterevolutionary493 3 месяца назад

they are sold out thanks to ****ing youtubers but you can do this easily with a jim dandy or whatever. Just get rubber tape. cut a piece that fits right up against the saddle, and pushes just slightly into the strings, and then cut slits for the strings. It takes experimentation, and every guitar will respond differently, but you sure as hell don't need to buy one of those moonwood or whoever's 4K silliness. These ones you found look cool. But this has been done for many years as a mod, similar to felt, it just got on the radar because of basic billionaires who can barely play but somehow are super big deals.

@tomservino6721 7 месяцев назад

Maybe it's me, but I don't get it. Yes, the sound is unique. I find it hard to believe that there was all this pent up demand for a guitar that goes thumpity thump. Obviously I'm wrong. Have the feeling that this will be the guitar with the most layers of dust, sitting in the corner.

@soundssimple1 7 месяцев назад

Utter waste of money. Only one 'sound' ever. If you want to jump on this fad for rubber bridges, take oyur least favourite acoustic , loosen the strings and place a piece of rubber across the bridge and retune. Play till your heart is content with the dead sound, get it out your system. Lots of vids on YT showing these conversions which are non permanent. This is just a fad, Yes there's many artists using their 'rubber bridge' guitars but its just a gimmick and will pass. Don't be conned into buying new guitars that just go 'thunk' when unplugged. Industry snake oil. Nice try Darrel but save yourself hundreds of bucks and just use a RUBBER SLIDE on your fav acoustic/electric ??? Maybe a follow up video............
