I unknowingly bought a Kiesel that someone made a 22 page thread complaining about.

Interesting, that's not my interpretation of the situation at all haha, I mean we'll never truly know as Holloway said.

Based on this guy's severe lack of proper understanding of how guitars work, his huge swings and misses pertaining to other issues the perceived the guitar to have and straight up made worse with his overconfident ineptitude in trying to fix them, his severe paranoia pertaining to what the causation of these non-existent problems were and his attitude and continual moaning about the flaws that the guitar still had that I know for fact aren't present as I now possess it (won't stay in tune, harsh shrill pickups) I don't think he has a lot of credibility. Kiesel literally just said that they needed to be tightened, that's a quote from the tech. I'll stuff his logic as to the problem in the same category of the warped maxxed truss rod because of wet wood.

So we must assume that your experience would have been identical to his? The difference would only have been in your own behavior and the degree of face value to it?

In regards to the loose tuners, sure. That seems to be the most consistent, reasonable complaint that both parties acknowledge. I would have probably taken it to my local tech, if I couldn't just tighten them myself. Bearing the results of that, who knows.

I was referring to the video topic in general, posting it here is irrelevant.

Ah my bad B, I was reading your post in context with others like it. You deserve better. I'm sorry. I disagree with your sentiment though.

A Kiesel thread gonna Kiesel

 

[Yul Brynner]

Whoa whoa whoa hold tf up a minute. The thread title said this guy unknowingly bought a kiesel which is forgiveable but what I'm reading is he actually knowingly bought a kiesel. Wtf?

Saw that thread bumped on TGP and was super happy to see a 4 year update. Great job.

This thread has generated more consistent discussion than any other thread in weeks, so far as I can tell.

Some guy did a three post long NGD the other day and got like 100+ likes on it. Maybe try that for your next one.

Photos are not youtube vids. Not remotely the same thing.

If all the youtube spam went away, it wouldn't be so bad I think.

This is one of like two guitar forums left with any activity, I’m happy to have all the content we can get. This doesn’t strike me as YouTube spam.

I think it took that guy like 3 weeks of prep to make that NGD. Not everyone can commit more time to a NGD than to a term paper. Also I personally believe that most of the likes were in reference to the James Tyler that was also included in the post.

I don't remember that. I don't think I liked anything recently. Must not have been that interesting.

Maybe do a video next time?

Judging by what has been written so far i decided the only goal is to get this topic to 22 pages aswell
So... here is my contribution.

I enjoy how whether or not youtube links gets criticized comes down entirely to whether or not the forum decides they like you, seemingly regardless of how much engagement in the forum comes from it.

GuitarJon posts a new thread for just about every video on his channel, and it's very "youtuber" content. But he gets a pass because folks like him, and he engages with the forum. Lord V does exactly the same thing, engages just as much, and this is "bad" for "reasons".

¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Ss.org gonna ss.org

Were the 22 pages written by the same guy? That's a lot of complaints, even for a guitar forum.

Nice guitar BTW.

Y'all got me. I posted here for views, and that's it. I posted it here and called my wife and I said, "cancel this months rent check baby, we're getting a new house, I just posted my video to ss.org and you know that shit's going to go viral now. I'm the next Ola Englund."

I do seem to farm some spontaneous hate around here, don't I? I'd like to think that it's because I make certain men jealous with my outrageous shredding technique and alpha male Joe Rogan physique but in reality it's probably because I'm a fat insufferable cunt. We'll never truly know.

I love youtube videos in threads. Scrolling past a single video is much easier than scrolling past a 2-page rant about Solar inlays.

Also, occasionally people are actually good at guitar, and I get to think "whoa, that could definitely be me, if i practised more than once per season!"






I genuinely like videos, seeing people play guitar is cool, more people should be doing that

Just mention Slayer or Periphery. That'll keep 'em busy.

Deflect the hate.
