Maybe do another vid like that but you do the sound effects with more modern items like a vacuum or an electric shaver? That could lend to some industrial metal madness! Regardless, great vid, dude. Looking forward to more.

    Thanks! And yeah, I’ve had no problems with the frets on this so far. The only issue was that the nut was a little sticky and grabbed the strings too much. It was easily fixed with graphite from a pencil to lube it though. This guitar is closer in quality to the Amarok series which are really great. Not tried one of the R458’s in a few years but I remember them being very cheap. This one though is much better :)
