    If you can already play, you can make it work. If you're a beginner, the low end guitar is where you learn how to make it work. Some of the bargain guitars are pretty darn good. Some, like a 3/4 size bass I bought for $125 have fish hooks and razor blades for fret ends and rattle like a tin can with marbles in it.

    I wish I was not to shy to put myself on video speaking. I'm better at recording and taking pics of my work. I repair guitars from home and videos like ones you make help my knowledge grow. If it's repairs or just guitar history I love it all. My name is Jason my business is called VersaFire Guitars. I'm in Ypsilanti Michigan. I have several guitars that rotate from buying selling or trading. I'm proud of my Les Paul since it took years for me to finally get one. I started playing in 1993 played in a couple bands and one of those bands still actually plays till this day. I hope you consider this as a entry as I have good reason not to put myself on cam for medical reasons for at least a year at that time I hope to make a guitar repair channel to also share my knowledge and how to videos of my customers repairs. Glad I found your channel I've been enjoying the content. If I'm not entered atleast I hope you learned a bit about me. Happy 4th of July

Maybe too light to be mahogany (at least the mahogany we know) but great great guitar; with some eq as a first stage before the amp I get an emg type sound, which is incredible.

    7:19 Strum an open chord so we can hear it as you turn the volume and tone up and down. If they're scratchy, that's when you'll hear it. Also for the hum, it can be generated in one or both of two ways. One is magnetic from a power transformer in equipment picked up by a single-coil pickup as you were trying to demonstrate (the closer to the transformer the louder the hum, and the guitar's angle with the sourcealso affects volume), the other is electrostatic, which you can hear with "high gain" (lotta distortion) and NOT touching the strings or any metal hardware on the guitar. If you get hum the second way, it needs the control and pickup cavities shielded.
