You know I bet those D’angelico single cutaway guitars are very comfortable to play. They certainly look like they are. I have a double cutaway DC model and it is a really solid guitar. If you are into solid body electrics they do make those as well. However, I have yet to try those out...
I get it. Everyone likes something different. I actually own both an Epiphone Dot (MIJ Elite Model) and a Dangelico semi-hollow. I like both for different reasons.
What do you think of the current D’angelico guitars? Do you own them or have your played them in a store? Also, why don’t they make a seven string hollow for jazz? That only seems like the right thing to do! If you own one post yours below. Here is my guitar:
I don’t doubt that. He has amassed a huge YouTube following (which is quite a big accomplishment). If you have an audience that likes you and listens to your advice, you can definitely turn those into buying customers.
Well as they say beauty is in the eye of the beholder (or beer holder). With those guys YouTube following I’d imagine there would be at least a hundred customers for their guitars.
There isn’t any drama. I just can’t see the appeal from buying a guitar that is associated with two out of shape, middle aged guys who can’t really play guitar themselves. On the other hand, I very much understand that using your YouTube channel with a lot of subscribers will indeed get you...
I like the look of the guitar. It reminds me of the old Aria Pro ii “The Cat” guitar or mid 80’s Westone guitar. However, the price is a bit high and the fact that the brand is associated with The Tone King and Phil McKnight is just a hard pass for me.
I know this topic might objective since different pickups sound better in some guitars than others. However what are your favorite model and type of pickups? I personally like Hagstrom’s stock pickups as well as Gotoh pickups. To my ears those work the best for what I am doing.
I have to say that I am really excited about these guitars. If you have ever owned an FGN or another Fujigen produced guitar you know just how good they are. I have a FGN Les Paul and it is fan and away better than any Gibson I have played. The Japanese fretwork is always spot on!
I have seen that on many guitars where a wire has “just enough” to reach the pot or switch. I’m sure the factories that manufacture these guitars calculate exactly the amount of wire they need down to the centimeter so it doesn’t cost them any more than needed.
