So many people missing the point of this guitar. It’s a niche guitar meant to be a nylon/classical that has playing similarities to an electric. I have mine and it’s hard for me to put it down, I love it!

Thanks. Ibanez has made a number of nylon electro guitars. I have a GA35TCEDVS which has a body leaning a bit more toward traditional. Still a moderately thin body, but with a resonant top and a normal sound hole. Very nice piece and fun to play. Channeled through a Bose T4S for a bit of "piezo correction" it's great. W/o the correction it's a bit thin and honky like most nylon piezo's, but once corrected, you can get deep into Willie Nelson style walk-ups and other fun things 😊 You'all might want to try this one into some tone correction pedals or a T4S, maybe even a Kemper. That would be a fun session and demo 😁

@zaccarter3801 Год назад

Love mine. I have a gibson semi-hollow electric, fender strat, Martin full body acoustic, and this guitar. Makes apartment playing fantastic. Really lightweight, I take it everywhere. The nylon strings make practicing chord shapes and fretting more articulate across all guitar types as you get less clarity by playing blues or classic rock style. As a jimmy page and David gilmour inspired player, this guitar brought out some articulation problems in my finger picking and fretting. Glorious instrument for the price, wish it had a case. My most played practice guitar. I love polyphia so that was a perk.

@JonasCraftUltimate 10 месяцев назад

how is playability vs steel string acoustic? i have tendonitis and want something that takes way less force to play than my steel strings.

@zaccarter3801 10 месяцев назад

@@JonasCraftUltimate I think one thing to consider is that while fretting is less physically demanding, it is way more finicky. By that I mean, you have to more precisely articulate chords. Nylon strings will buzz or mute much more easily than metal strings. If I was you, I would consider lighter gauges or an electric guitar (semi hollow or hollow). Because most guitar songs have bends, and nylon strings don’t bend well. To be candid, I actually sold the Tim Henson guitar to make room for my dream Les Paul. Nothing wrong with the guitar, I just got a great deal on a Gibson Les Paul and the Tim Henson guitar had decent resale still. So made room.

@@JonasCraftUltimate what’s your play style? I can make some decent recommendations in the same ballpark. If you are kind of in to anything and want something versatile, an epiphone ES-335 is a great instrument that sounds good acoustically and amazing with an amp. WARNING, any purchase of an epiphone will make you dream about the Gibson version. I used to be an “anti-Gibson” guy but then I grew up and Gibson, as a whole, got better (avoid 2013-2018 years, is a good rule of thumb).

@sordel5866 Год назад

I thought it sounded good as well, and it's really not at all expensive for a signature guitar. I see this as a nylon guitar for electric players who want "unplugged" tones on stage or for beginners (who like Polyphia) ... it's obviously not for classical guitarists. If I didn't already have a nylon string electroacoustic I think I'd be sorely tempted.

I guess the question is: what potential does this guitar have in the hands of a Tim Henson fan..? I am too old to answer that but I hope some kid does. If I were a Tim Henson fan, I would probably go for his electric with the pickups that give me a nylon sound to have more versatility. Saying that, I'm always happy that someone like Tim wants to try something new and Ibanez are good enough to accommodate him and have enough faith in him to put it out there. Hopefully we will hear something new in the future from someone wielding this thing and we'll all eat our hats!

@martyshwaartz971 Год назад

I actually like how the pickups sound, it's quite unique but that also means it's super niche, and this style of elec/accoustic is already a hard sell on top of the nylon, and I woulds simply NEVER use one of these flat bodies as a straight accoustic which cuts the theoretical usefulness in half for me. Doesn't sound bad at all, but definitely needs the right player AND the right kind of music to be useful.

@brddork Год назад

I'd imagine it sounds better when you run it through Tim Henson's NeuralDSP plugin which has an acoustic sim. I personally find these (and the Fender acoustasonics) a bit puzzling because they're just about useless as actual acoustic guitars... but given how incredibly popular the Fenders are, there must be a real market for them. For some I imagine it's a sweet compromise, but for me, if I want an acoustic, I want its sound to be intrinsic to the guitar itself and not dependent on DSP.

@NathanaelPittman 9 месяцев назад

Well, it was an Ibanez/Tim Henson design venture. If you're familiar with Polyphia (the band Tim is in) you know that their music is highly processed and produced. Tim is as much a sound engineer as he is a guitar player. He designed this with his unique playing styles and purposes in mind. He can use post processing to make it sound as thick as he wants it to. His music and sound are increasingly popular and Ibanez isn't going to pass up the opportunity to sell his fans a signature model even if it is a one trick pony without the aid of high end processing/recording equipment. It's a cool looking guitar in my opinion. Personally, I'd buy it based on appearances alone, but I like the wider nut and the nylon string sound also.

@@barendtromp sure. There are a bunch of things that can cause the intonation to be off. It’s not necessarily the nut being in the wrong place. In my case, the internation was noticeably off, but it wasn’t catastrophic. So I checked out the nut and realized that the G and e strings looked a little high in the nut, so I loosen the strings and ran a file along the nut slot to cut it properly. Tuned it back up, and the intonation was perfect. Or at least very close to perfect to the point where I can’t even tell any more. Also, I’ve heard some people say that if nylon strings, I’ve been overtightened at any point it can over stretch the string which will cause intonation issues.

I'd rather get Godin Multiac or even Yamaha silent guitar

Alvarez made one back in the day too

Yep, pretty dreadful. Is strung with elastic bands?

This is a hollow body electric guitar that happens to have nylon strings. It doesn’t have to sound like anything unplugged (what does your Casino sound like unplugged?) and isn’t supposed to sound acoustic when it’s plugged in. It’s not an Acoustisonic, which everyone seems to think it’s trying to be.

My Casino sounds a hundred times better than this unplugged.

Was going to say nice playing but seems like the wrong crowd lol 😂 Seems I’ve wondered into the tim Henson hate club.

@davidf2281 Год назад

Don't think anyone's hating on Tim Henson; it's just the guitar sounds horrible.

@powbobs Год назад

It’s just a dead and buzzy guitar.

@nedludd3641 Год назад

Trouble is, this guy is a wizard. He could make a cardboard guitar sound sweet.

More like your playing is shit?

Ben is a great guitar player, and I enjoy his videos. With that said, this guitar may be the worst sounding guitar I’ve ever heard demoed. I mean, wow … this is a sound people WANT?

@TheCrumpers53 Год назад

A lot of guitar players don't like new things. This is a new thing. The guitar needs to progress forward.

@treaceeames4697 Год назад

Its a tin can

@powbobs Год назад

There have been lots of dead sounding and buzzy guitars before. Apparently attaching a popular guitarist’s name to one makes it not just another crap sounding guitar. The power of marketing.

@TheCrumpers53 Год назад

Tim wrote a song with millions of views and streams on that crap sounding guitar. Maybe you guys just need to become better musicians?

@@powbobsgo listen to polyphias new album where it’s used. It doesn’t sound like that

@@MyPPSad Do you know why?

@davidrjbrown8808 9 месяцев назад

I like the idea. I just don't like the piezo sound.

@FiloTeVe 24 дня назад

So you can connect and play this guitar into electric guitar amps no problem?

@elvisd3947 4 дня назад

I tried to plug it into my electric amp and it sounded fine, but definitely worse than my acoustic amp. Also distortion on this thing sounds ass. Still one of the more fun guitars I've ever played 😊

No keep playing! That was groovy af!

@denmar355 Год назад

No thanks. That is not a sound I am chasing.

@DavidRosario69 Год назад

A useful test would have been without picks ... purely finger-picked. I rarely play a classical guitar with pickups; produces a nasally sound rather than the fuller sound I prefer.

@ant-onemusic444 Год назад

ima be honest, I don't know if it's the way you dialed the sound or this particular example of the guitar, but it sounds pretty bad here

@THESHR3DS1324 Год назад

I love it So many fing haters goddam

I hate the timbre of nylon strings with piezos so much I will never get over it.

@Ruddigore Год назад

A good price but it's not something I would like to own. In my very humble opinion it came across as a bit of a jack of all trades, master of none.

@jayumble8390 7 месяцев назад

There is a trade off with electric nylon guitars...too many nuances to get into here, but if you process the sound, these guitars will sound incredible. The best analogy would be to say that the difference between a real saxophone and a plastic saxophone is like a real classical guitar is to an electric classical nylon guitar. In both examples, both instruments are two completely different animals. So you decide how you want to handle the trade off.
