Nice one, Dunsy! I had a chance to play a Firefly semi hollow about a year ago and it felt good. At least as good as any Harley Benton that I've played. I dig the look of it. Will it make the cut for a Twisted Nerve gig? Kinda hope so. As always, you played it well!

Thanks sir, yeah a braw instrument. Once the neck arrives from the US (fingers are still crossed on that!) I'll try it at volume and see how it does. Was great through the Spark, but no sure how it will handle Battle Conditions.

Hi Dunsy, it’s been a while, but that’s no reflection on your great channel my friend. You surprised me with this one. Stainless steel frets on this Firefly?? Are you kidding me?? The sound was incredible, especially for the money. Loved this upload, brother man 👍🏻 The temperature is about normal, brother 😂. About the same here in East Texas. We overcome that with great air conditioning, brother man 👍🏻

Hope you’re well, Sir! Great to hear from ya. I’m back home in the much cooler climate of Scotland - and missing the heat! Guitar is all back with me and reassembled (I ended up mailing the neck). Crazy specs on a guitar in this price range. Should have a much more comprehensive video done soon with better sound samples and the likes.

Fireflies are great guitars for the price. I wish this crop of guitars would've been around when I had started playing gigs. It was crap guitars, like I had. Or nice Fender or Gibson guitars like the more well off kids had. Nice playing too! Your playing reminds me Mark Knoppfler.

12:30 If you strap the neck to your leg, you’d walk with a limp through customs but could explain about the old injury; it needs a splint and you have this neck to hand in case of such medical eventuality. I’m sure I remember hearing about the time you fell off stage and have never been the same since. You were ok but I never recovered fully.

Hi Dunsy, I was surprised myself but when I saw the back where the covers didn't cover the holes completely but $160 is unbeatable for somebody that can't afford a decent guitar like me the Squier man, lol. The month of July in Fresno California was 115 the most but hotter than usual. Good to see you. Is this the first time you've been to the states? Nice home you stayed at, you have some good friends or fans. Peace 🕊️ Dunsy.

When you buy a guitar you should already know if your fingers are of such size that to put 3 tips down on the A-major chord is either: comfortable and NOT jamming the fret space and jamming the A string and the e string OR you can't reliably play a clean A-major chord with 3 tips. The industry is hung-up on 1.75 inch for the top-nut - as if INTERNATIONAL LAW will shut them down if they go 1.875, or 2.000, or 2.125 inches for top-nut. And for 12-strings some of them still use 1.75" !!! BUT, firefly has maple neck. Most 12-strings have mahogany neck and they can SNAP but usually warp. Insist that the company TELLS you precisely the top-nut measure and the neck material - do not believe the written posted specs. For a working man, you truly best have 2" top-nut or bigger for a 12-string. The usual large measure is 1.875" and this still sucks. I say for the money, and the Firefly generally, is great, but the narrow top-nut sucks for working men. (I'm judging it by eye to be 1.750".)

@@DunsysGuitarWorld I knew a guy from Glasgow somewhere. He used to play in a glam rock band and a punk bank and he used to buy melody makers and the like everytme he was in America. He told me he used to break the headstock off them and bring them back in. He said he didn't get charged that way. He would just repair them when he got home. I couldn't do that. Ide feel like a right you know what. He was a wild drunkerd and I don't think he was completely sane, but that's what he used to do and I believed him as he showed me his handywork (or should I say footwork) and his eh.... "professional repairs".

There was no delivery option to the UK when it was purchased - so my friend in the US ordered it for me and took delivery of it in NC. I was going there on holiday 6 months later, so decided to just wait until I was at his. I could bring it back home with me on the flight to Scotland and not pay any import duty.

Time will tell on this one (once the neck arrives from the US!) I think, to be fair, I was up against it time wise and only had 10 minutes to get a recording done, so I was treading very carefully as there wasn't a "Take 2" option.
