You know, the bad part is, some people are going to buy these guitars and then wonder why they don't sound as good as when you played them
If six strings were nailed to a plank of wood, Dagan would make it sound amazing. He is such a great great guitar player.

@@DaganWilkin Nice name brother
Great (long) video PMT team, I'm mainly an acoustic player but I have been wanting to pick up an electric one just to have around, looks like a great time to do so!
I love the look of the new Striker and I was able to try a couple of them! Didn't buy it though because the model I wanted had mistakenly had a 3-way switch installed instead of a 5-way. I also would love to try the Revstar since my Pacifica 612 is an excellent guitar. However, Yamaha electric guitars are almost impossible to find in Texas right now...
That was great Dagan! I love the 40th Anniversary Squier Strat and I hate to say it but I am warming up to thee Silver Sky a bit, they do sound great! the stubby headstock though....anyway Thank you, happy holidays buddy!
Awesome! This video doesn't suck either!! Thanks for the list.
Thank you for all your work brother I'm definitely sold on that PRS I will do everything I needed to and if not I've got enough to get me through just about any squeeze or into a few squeezes haha have a great day from across the pond
Cool list of guitars. I really like the look of that Yamaha Revstar Element... except for the White Tuners
got myself an Ibanez AZES40 currently wrapped sitting under the Christmas tree from the kiddies (they don't know it was me who picked the guitar) Feel like a kid myself again waiting for Christmas! Also love your work Dagan! can't not watch every video you are in :)

Dagan made me pick up the guitar after a long absence. Age 17 to 60. Just hoping I can actually somewhere this time. I miss my Ibanez "Les Paul" from the 70s before they had to stop making them.

That’s awesome to hear, glad you’re playing again! Dagan actually has a 70’s lawsuit Ibanez Les Paul too. Keep rocking man! 🤘
Wow, that Ibanez is amazing! Especially with that extra switch.
I always have the same two thoughts watching his videos: “Wow! Great guitar!” and “Wow! I need to hit the woodshed!”
In this same price range I’d also suggest any Epiphone Inspired by Gibson or Prophecy guitars, they all seem really on point. The inspired by Gibson explorer looks and feels nearly the same as the real deal, for less than 1/3rd of the price
loved the video. One guitar I'll definitely add there is Jackson JS34Q .
Antiquity 35 is just a rare jem that you have discovered for us, and I thank you for that.
Yes Dagan, it generally has to look good to you before you go finger bangin it. Those semi hollow's sound so good with distortion!
I have one too and once you work out the bugs from Shipping it is by far one of my most played guitars at the moment you know always got to fall back on a few of my work horses
Great vid, all of these sound fantastic for the price! =) AZES is my fav =P
My two favorites were the hollow body 35 and the racing stripes Yamaha
,Great demo & review, Dagan... #1...Epi Power Player #2 The Kramer(Very.close 2nd) #3 The Antiquity TL-1 That little Epi Power Player sounds great. Full bodied tone!
That 40th anniversary gold edition strat is MINT god it looks so good

I’ve always enjoyed playing Slow Dancing In a Burning Room as if it were a metal song
You're getting healthier Dagan. Lots of love from India ♥️
Man I'm glad you brought that out at PRS because that is truly an awesome guitar I mean for the money there's just no beating it I mean you pay a lot more for a decent Stratocaster and it's just the name the PRS you ask me does everything if not better than the Strat
The video doesn't tell me which one I need to get so I can play like Dagan. (Seriously, inspiring stuff. x)
Depending on $, I'd prefer the 335. I wish you had a Epi Firebird in the line up.For the price, you can't go wrong with the Squire.
That revstar is going to blow up ,Aesthetically its fresh af
I love floyd roses but ever since a couple of months ago when I snapped the b string on my used 2011 Kramer assult plus I've been to scared to go raise the pitch with it. that was not a fun day at school.
Yamaha Revstar Element w- satin neck is calling to me. It has a Rickenbacker-ish look which I like. It's striking but I REALLY wish Yamaha had extended the pickguard down to the selector switch in the style of a Strat or Jazzmaster. That one looks a bit quirky but I guess it works. It sounds great as well. Woah... okay, just saw the price. Anyway, gotta say -- that was some fantastic playing throughout. 🤘

Do you guys happen to have any info or know anything about the Ibanez grga120? It’s a gio series and I am considering buying one for my first guitar. I tried out the grgr120 and 131 ex and the grga felt better while playing and in my hands.
I appreciate Dagan’s appreciation for John Mayer 🤘🏻
Bro the Jackson js32 series is great for the price. Even the js32 dinky with a Floyd doesn’t go over 400 usd. I got my Jackson js32 king v in Ferrari red for 330 brand new. It sounds great and as dagan would say “looks the business” it’s a great guitar for the price

question: A guitar that doesn't suck for beginners plugged into an entry-level amplifier (that probably does) will not sound as well as it sounds in the video. So, my question is, for a beginner (no pedal, no gate noise, no fancy stuff), is it better to spend less on a cheap guitar but a little more on an amplifier? I said that because I find it difficult to hear in your videos the difference between an entry-level guitar and one a "little more expensive". Maybe it's me, as a beginner. Or maybe is the camera mic. I don't know. Anyway, good video as always, and good affordable guitars from what I can tell. Ps. I bought myself an Eko Aire Lite (Italian brand, I think you know it) and a marshall MG15 (non FX, unfortunately). I will upgrade to something better, but for now, I need to practice with it.

I would say as a beginner your main goal should be a decent guitar to play on, and more important learn on. You might not get the perfect sound on a smaller cheaper amp, but Amps especially used, are cheaper in my experience than a solid guitar. So probably best to buy a solid guitar to learn on, then worry about the better amp and accessories later down the road.
@MattSwain1

It’s a good question. When I first picked up a guitar 20 years ago, cheap guitar definitely equalled bad guitar that was difficult to play and not good for a beginner. It seems that now you can buy an inexpensive guitar that won’t be horrible to play but many really cheap amps continue to sound bad. I’m no expert, maybe others will disagree, but that’s my current thinking

I had an cheap guitar and an ever cheaper amp at the beginning (back in 1983) my way was first a slightly better guitar, than an better amp, and so on. The better you get, the better the guitar should be. When you can play that guitar, get an slightly better amp. So the tone gets better. And if you have one guitar or amp that you think is the best for you, get the other one better.

@@MattSwain1 I think that is a fair point, guitar quality has seemingly increased for sure! I just wager you can get a used amp that can produce a lot of tones for pretty cheap later down the line.
Kind of funny most people wouldn't be caught dead with the Yamaha but they always seem to surprise the hell out of me
If its about having a PRS in the list, i would take the silver sky se out and bring the se standard 24. Its cheaper and very vetsatile
