Every player ive seen get their hands on these (in videos) plays inspiring music. Its very telling. Unique build

They look and sound stunning. It's also great to see something different from a new guitar company instead of doing a tele or strat copy and claiming it to be different than the rest.

Hi exciting stuff.

This guitar is a work of art. I am sure the consideration of design and technology will have an impact on design for years to come. I hope someday I can actually play one!

Looks, performance, attitude. Boutique modern Teisco. Take a bow.

Nice video! Great meeting you boys at the event!

Thank you!! Nice to meet y'all as well!

Received mine and it's a really great flawless build. You do notice a lot of the small details that went into the design - really appreciate how comfortable and lightweight it is. Feels very natural and lived in. The neck feels great and plays like butter. Playing through a Tone King Imperial 20th and the single coils sound killer. Have yet to put it through the paces with an overdrive or fuzz but very happy with it.

Hot Damn they sing & ring.

Thanks for the demo Nate & David & thanks for the heads-up emails for awesome new guitars y'all have at CME

Give that Brit his own show already!

The Material of the knobs is also known as Fordit What a cool Guitar

Nice

I feel like a G&L met a supro met a firebird or something and it’s pretty cool

Cool. We need more guitar designers like him and Paul Reed Smith to be engineering new ideas.

A faraday cage that thin will have little effect on string pull. It probably has some magnetic alloy on the outside of the coils that draws the lines from the strings down through the coil, but it will also create eddy currents that roll off highs to some extent. The Steel screws do that anyway. Fender Jaguar pickups and Lace Sensors have that, and they both have rolled off highs. Strings vibrate elliptically when plucked regardless of magnetic pull, but I'm all for decreased pull. The pickups sound nice, but there are already highly efficient pickups with low magnetic pull that don't have strong eddy currents. Bill Lawerence was the first to do that with his blade designs in the 70s and 80s, then his Wilde NF series in the 90s, and finally, the Micro-Coils b4 he died. He also designed low pull stacked P90 types that didn't have high freq loses.

Totally. "Faraday cages cannot block stable or slowly varying magnetic fields ..." Which is not to say you can't shape a pickup's magnetic field... just not that way. I think something was mis-translated there.

It's interesting to hear in the video that this Powers Type A guitar is completely separate from Taylor. But isn't it made in a small shop on the Taylor premises? And doesn't Taylor own the copyright? And isn't Andy Powers the CEO of Taylor? Whatever, marketing separately from Taylor is probably an excellent strategy to maintain demand for a $3800 instrument. All that being said, it looks compelling.

Beautiful, but man its another expensive guitar that I cant afford, damn you Andy Powers.

Nathaniel will your slides be available anytime soon again?

Ican discover the sounds of Southern California with a Fender lol

Looks and sound great but the price Ouch

They're hand building these one at a time as a boutique line.

Cool guitars. I’m not a huge fan of the knobs though…

I dig it, just depends on the price. Edit: This is a 4k guitar, just get a Novo or a custom shop of your choosing, Jesus Christ.

Agreed. I just buy necks, bodies, pickups and parts I like from independent craftspeople, and do a little sanding and finishing to get what I want for under $1k. Bolt-on necks sustain better than set necks anyway due to coupling force. I chisel out the neck pocket center to increase force and reduce surface area damping. It makes an audible difference. Aluminum can be used around SC or stacked pickups to reduce the harsher upper-mids. It was used in early 60's Strats under the pickguard.

Interesting guy, kind of Tony Stark looking... with greasy hair, with the same sense of innovations and design

That’s your takeaway here 🥴

GS mini tuners. 😁

tell me why he cant build a decent sounding taylor....yet these sound amazing,,,,,Im a Martin guy btw

The selector switch is misplaced. difficult to trigger during play

Why open a demo with heavy fuzz? It CAN'T give you a clear demonstration of the instrument's tonality. Right? They look cool, though...

its a "meh" for me. It does the tele thing, just not as good... and the cost? nah

$3800!😂

i was ready to destroy this guitar.....wow actually sounds beautiful.....fuc

Sound muddy

This guy could make a stick sound good. Honestly, those little details on the guitar are great but do little for me as a professional musician. Also, I think that these guitars are way, way over priced for what you get. I'm not a fan of mahogany necks (bodies maybe) and IMO this instrument only sounds good when it's clean... the rest of the time it sounds kind of flubbed up. Sorry Andy...but it's not for me. Just my 2 cents worth. Peace.

imagine playing the worst riff that comes to mind on a guitar supposed to set a standard

Those things are ugly.

Please end your guitar journey and start a shampoo journey…

lol ok bro lets compare your resume with Nathaniels... You go first

Comes with a soft case for $3000+ price. Ugh. You can keep it.

I miss Taylor when it was all Bob Taylor, to each their own. I’m not an Andy Powers CEO of Taylor fan… V-Class sucks, I played an 814ce $3999, at Sam Ash the other day, very pretty, but sounded and played very bland.

Big deal. 3 notes, a slide and distortion with echo. I'm so impressed... NOT... 😅

Can anyone comment on the neck shape? Soft shoulder C type like Taylor?

@DavidAzizinamini

Its a C-shaped neck. The fretboard has a split radius, different than an end-to-end compound radius. It’s asymmetrical from the bass side to the treble side. The treble side is slightly flatter all the way from the first fret to the end of the board. This allows for maximum playability and easier, choke-free string bending!

​@@DavidAzizinamini Good information. I'm glad it has a glove compartment and fog lights, but the neck profile and radius is useful too. Daniel makes evreything sound great but I have a hunch these guitars are really good.

Another $4k "revolutionary" guitar. Yawn.
