....................................................................................................................
Mike has been playing the guitar since he was 12 years old, and from that first moment his love affair with music and the instrument began. Fresh out of school at the age of 16 he attended the Academy of Contemporary Music in Guildford and completed a year-long Diploma course.
After finishing the ACM his life as a full time musician began, playing in numerous bands and touring up and down the country playing iconic venues such asThe Shepherds Bush Empire, The Astoria, The Underworld and London’s Jazz Café. He’s also been fortunate enough to support industry legends Paul Weller, Blondie and Katie Melua.
Mike’s session work has led to his working on a variety of projects - from performing with stars such as Ricky Wilson and Diana Vickers, to appearing in many TV shows and adverts. Mike loves being on stage performing, but is equally at home recording in a studio - where he has worked with Alex Von Soos (All Saints, Seal, Atomic Kitten), Mike Horner (The Prodigy, Shakira, Bloc Party), and Mike Chapman (Blondie, Suzi Quatro)

    ​@@drnobe Yes, but it was mainly on electric guitars, check the Aria U100 Urchin for example, a very rare guitare with built-in effects. Patrice Vigier also experimented with the Nautilus preamp (that had tons of built-in effects) in his first Arpege guitars series. A lot of Japanese brands from this era also experimented with built-in effects, some were better than others.

I think I was almost as excited as you were as you took it out and the ran through some of the features. This might be a game changer. Excited to watch your next video with it after you have got a bit more familiar with the features.

    Hello friend....really enjoyed your video. I am buying one of these guitars and my only concern at this point is the size of the guitar as the new Lava 3 me comes in both 36 inch and 38 inch size. Can you or anyone of your subscribers tell me if they find the 36 inch size guitar a tad too small to play? I am an experienced guitarist looking to take my playing to next level and will be spending many hours outside practicing modes, scales, arpegios etc. Just concerned that 36 inch may be a tad too small as I want to be able to transfer my new skills to a full size axe. . Love to hear from you or anyone who uses either size. Thanks so much.

    Carbon fiber is far from plastic, bud. Its literally sheets of carbon, pressed together or formed, depending on brand. The advantage of using carbon fiber is that its resistant to temperature and humidity and is incredibly strong. You will never need to adjust a truss rod with a carbon fiber guitar, or worry about taking it out of a hot trunk, or leaving it outside in your backyard after a wild night. Carbon fiber guitars can potentially last longer than your lifetime provided you dont run it over. Their tone is also much louder and brighter than most acoustics and its very subjective as to whether you like it or not. Some brands have gone to great lengths to make carbon fiber acoustics sound like traditional acoustics, but this is ultimately marketed as a near indestructible and worry-free higher price point starter/intermediate brand of guitars, with the fun electronics gimmicks as an extra hook for some looping and recording fun. If you want to talk about plastic guitars, check out the brand Ovation... id debate that for their low prices and their plastic builds, they actually dont sound half bad. But they're certainly not everyones cup of tea. Same goes for carbon fiber guitars. If you live by the sea, or at a high dry altitude, or just live in a climate with large humidity swings over the course of a year, these guitars are a god send as they require no humidity management. They're also great camping guitars!
