Gibson Robot Guitar - hands on video review from stuff.tv

[budqt1]

Gibson- fender

[sideburnstijger]

I just thought I'd make one more comment about Silverburst.

[yappertrap]

yo dog is that one of them SILVERBURST'S!!!!!!!

[ht448]

Worst Sounding Gibson/guitar Ever Made what has gibson Become?

[0MetalllicA]

people become lazyer and lazyer these days..

[bas0704]

give me just a normal les paul and I'm happy! :D

[foamyjesus]

"It way look like a regular silverburst les paul" ROFL

[ravenshield56]

hhah lovely BLUE silverburst there xD

[TheStaticshadow]

i could play all night and it wouldn't go out of tune lol

[NicksVids25]

lol its blue??

[zbarneyz]

Silverburst? Wow...I know this guy tryes to sound like he knows what he's talking about but damn he fails....

[dragonkin9]

is this guy...colorblind?

[joelthefrog1]

I have an attachment to tune my guitar.

It's called MY HAND!

[casual35]

@joelthefrog1 Wow! You're amazing! Tuning by ear or not has nothing to do with this technology. It's just a quicker way to tune the guitar without the delay of band members waiting or changing guitars for different songs during a gig.

[miscellaneousanus]

WHAT A SEED

[gunsnflamethrowers]

gibson have been going through a really crap period since the 1970s making crap like this, the best thing bout gibson r their acoustic guitars

[loicome]

@gunsnflamethrowers agreed. I used to have a Gibson acoustic. Eventually, I decided to get an electric and switched to a strat. I then bought a fender acoustic. I will probably own a Gibson again, but they need to focus on more important areas, such as tone.

[starassist1977]

this vid is a waste

[TMF58]

Why would you call it a silverburst when its not even silver? Massive failure.

[LittleEmoBoy001]

i'd pay about 100 for it.

[Rorygirl33]

...pretty much anyway.

[Rorygirl33]

That is pretty nifty. Finaly a gibson worth the money. lol

[guitgeo]

I can't find a single video that demos the different guitars this imitates..I get it..It tunes itself to all kinds of pitches but what the hell does it sound like????

[olystercrowley]

this is not a silverburst ...

[TheOneWhoLived]

@olystercrowley feel sad for him, he might be color blind

[VersiCoIor]

@TheOneWhoLived

it can be a re-colored model because it seems similar, just blue instead of silver

[runerockgod7]

the gibson darkfire is much much nicer with the same functions as this guitar check it out on the gibson website i think its about £3,600

[benzie101]

this means tone deaf people will be able to play in tune :O not good

[back2thefutre]

jonas bros r gay

[Aft3rlyfe]

so it can only tune to standart?

.___.

[MrBrownstonee]

nope, it has a lot of tunings

[iloveasianfoskco]

It has several different tunings.

[ChuckNorris360]

@Aft3rlyfe no, it can tune to standard, Eb, open G, open F, drop D, and DADGAD, and double drop D. it also has intonation and string changing modes, which make both of those tasks a LOT faster and easier.

[jollyjoan]

usually if some one is willing spend this much money on a guitar, they problably know how to tune one themselves. and if they dont they can alwyas just buy a 10 dollar guitar tunner that works just as fine

[Banziilloic]

Well, people who use this guitar are gonna wait for it to be out of tune, so then they can use that function with the big smile on their faces.

[MiamiBeat7]

It's about the player, the right guy could take a 200 dollar guitar and make better sound ever out of it than most players on a 5000 dollar guitar.

[560licious]

there goes the next generations guitar players ears...tuning the guitar yourself is exercise for your ears..your benefit!!...What's next, the guitar that plays itself? no more live shows with actual people playing...just some instruments doing it all..

[iam0zero0]

this was made to benefit live shows, and yeah im pretty sure tuning alone made a guitarist ears not say i dont know learning the fret board and what sounds right there......

[Melimo]

you know...disney's epot has a "world of tomorrow" like tour where they show you the new ideas they're coming out with. One was a guitar with frets and strings that lit up so you can learn a song that you uploaded into it as an mp3. Scary really....

[MiamiBeat7]

i could care less about the self tune, but this is the nices, cheapest solution to getting a 'gibson les paul' cuz i'm never payin more than 1000 for a guitar

[siisihqdaa]

u gotta have bad guitars if you dont pay more than 1000 for a guitar

[Hitamaru]

you have to be an idiot to think paying alot of money for guitar makes it good. an epiphone dot could crush any low end gibson.

[siisihqdaa]

i didnt say paying more is always better, but gimme a perfect guitar under 1000e

[Hitamaru]

any high end epiphone, high end epiphone's use gibson parts

[siisihqdaa]

and old handmade gibsons may not sound as well as epiphone but they are made pretty damn well, not todays gibsons, they are horrible.

[Jonochallis]

What?? epiphone has nothing on gibson... i have no idea what your trying to prove....

[siisihqdaa]

i have no idea what are you talking about :D

[oaroushdy]

THE GOOD thng bout it is tht tuning will be perfect nd sound nice nd clear..the bad thng is i like tuning ma guitar so this wont suit me at all..it will give a way tuning talent

[iam0zero0]

tuning talent? tuning talent.........

[siisihqdaa]

if you have straight frets the tuning is not ever perfect :D

[jacknuts22]

This is the epitome of lameness.

Stupid.

[Zhorellski]

what kind of battery does the tuners used?

[rocker100991]

no it can do everything

[lukejin]

does it only tune to standard tuning?

[xxphatpiexx]

It has about 6 different tunings as far as I know. Drop d E flat etc etc.

[supatoker420]

How fucking kickass is that!!!!!

[AJDeakin2]

yea, hey check the dark fire it tunes in a second

literally

[raphaelbuesser]

cool

[XT3RM1N8TA]

Personally I wouldn't want that light on my guitar. Can you turn it off?

[jaymegson8793]

yeh it goes out.

[rock2live2rock]

wow, that's a heavy guitar!

lol :)

[JaredFury]

lol he is a Dumbass. he said Silver Burst.

[Pissedman]

The axe is called "Blue Silver Burst"... dumbass.

[JaredFury]

Your A Douche. I Just Want To Get That Point To You. and even if that was the case he didnt say that so blow me. And No Its Not Its Called Midnight Manhattan You Cock Sucker.

[Pissedman]

Why dont you try to do your own review of the guitar, and see all the crappy comments that rains down from "mr. knowz-it-allz" like you?

This dude does an effort to show this awesome guitar to us, and you take a piss on him?

Shame on you boy.. shame!

[JaredFury]

Because I Dont Like The Robot Guitar. If I Was Going To Do It i WOuld Study Up On It You Know? Make Sure I Got My Shit Straight. I Dont Know It All But I Got A Pretty Good Idea. haha Hear What Im Saying. Dude Im Sorry For Calling Ya Names. lol The Shame Thing Was Funny.

[bbunters]

Wow. How do you get this stupid? If you're wondering why you're not getting laid, read back your comments and see how you sound. Loser.

[JaredFury]

haha I Do Get Laid. By Your Mom. How The Fuck Are You Going To Call Me Stupid and Say Im Not Getting Laid and Shit when You Have No Concept of Who I am Or What i Do. God Damn Your A Little Fucking Prick.

[dmasta91]

why do you capitalize every first letter

[JaredFury]

Habit.

[soulraven0]

This is actually harder to read than regular someone typing regularly...

[HenryFeefan]

yeah haha. i had to read everything over again

[somestealth]

1.Your reading my comment 2. Now your saying/thinking thats a stupid fact. 4. You didnt notice that i skipped 3. 5. Your checking it now. 6. Your smiling. 7. Your still reading my comment. 8. You know all you have read is true. 10. You didnt notice that i skipped 9. 11. Your checking it now. 12. You didnt notice there are only 10 facts Copy and paste to 1 video, tomorrow will be your best day ever! no matter what

[leog1994]

how manny dollars??

[pjsMovies]

it like 4000$

[8394147]

No, if it's 1400 pounds that's like $2,100.

[masretals]

how ...shit

[CHINESEdemocracy101]

ha! looks rubbish, why sit there with pointless struming while it does the work for you. why not learn to tune your guitar or atleast buy a tuner or somthing goosh! sorry but, it just looks abit rubbish. o yer and YOUR SUPPOSED TO BE REVIEWING THE GUITAR NOT ADVERTISING IT!!!!!!

[althegreat17]

its good when ur playing live.. u can tune faster even while playing

[guitaristman23]

i'd like to see this thing to tune 2 drop a

[Rafterman123]

it can tune to a book load of tunings

[mateivornicu]

even at 435 Hz?(half of step down)

[vendortrash]

that's not a review, thats a commercial. stupid.

[Crewdawwg]

Seems cool, but my thoughts are to much electronics.. to many moving parts means MORE to break and go wrong..

[lesbianseegullmaster]

£1400 for lazy bastards lmao cool technology tho gotta admit

[MichaelThomas]

lol he said silverburst. Sorry buddy, but it's blue

[07munch]

Its just a fucking toy

[AceN4]

no! its a very expensive guitar that tunes itself for you.

[07munch]

exactly no use for the piece of shit

[igleni]

lol stfu xD

[07munch]

you know im right

[o0SaltyBat0o]

No use other than the fact it tunes it 5 seconds :| meaning you can go from standard to drop c and back in less than a minute which is actually very helpful for people who play in different tunings.

[07munch]

What happens when it runs outta batters on stage of pops a string or the tuning pegs get fucked what is that like 200 doller pegs?

[SizzlingMonkey]

People who are going to buy this overpriced thing, Could afford that. Lol.

[ANIKANSKYWALKERG]

it might but it doesnt at all look like a silverburst les paul guitar it looks like a blue starburst led paul guitar

[AceN4]

just go look at the gibson website to see what colors it comes in. I know it's not a silverburst.

[ShotGunRoleModel]

Yea, it's definetly not a silver burst haha. I dont know why that was even said.

[BobbyDuwitz]

I think silver and blue are the same thing where he's from. maybe.

[AceN4]

doubt it.

[jffersontube]

Actually no, that doesn't look like a standard "silver burst" at all. Kinda looks blue.

[oscurfilms]

i think is manhattan midnight

[bronzehydra3]

Is it just me, or is the les paul not silverburst in the video?

[mudpies4]

i dont think it is?

[TheFirstSunrise]

They already got a VG strat... it's fenders answer to the robot i guess...

[AceN4]

thats funny you say that.

i thought the vg strat came out before the robot.

[IanKusekSoloArtist]

it did :0 gibson pretty mcuh copied off of fender :P, gibson is gay anyways. ibanez rules.

[TURichie]

there's no gay guitar.

there's just one for every kind of taste

[DevonatorMetalMaster]

when they make a guitar with a floyd rose that will re-tune and detune itself...ill think about it.

[brandontylerkaiser]

how are you suppose to tune it to the rain song or thats the way by led zeppelin??

[dinesalone]

ok this guitar is not really meant for live concerts in my eyes, its for the studio, it can be 100% in tune and in teh studio, tuning can be a huge problem cause if a guitar is just ever so slightly off it can sound like complete ass. trust me ive used this, if you switch out the pickups this thing can beast it up i nteh studio, i like the SG version alot more though, tone wise.

[gvkc1993]

philxw22 is right, and to phonepkh; guitars have been around for a long time and i know that there are people who play for a living without a gibson robot. people can manage without these things.besides, i dont like my guitar to be perfectly tuned, so people like me would end up manually tuning anyway.

[philxw22]

wow people are so lazy they cant even tune a guitar

[phonepkh]

have you ever played for a living?

then lazy has friggin nothing to do with it!!!

[ajaxrulzz]

think!

I play my whole live guitar. I tune my guitar evry day even when he is almost in tune. that's 2 min a day ! in a week it is 14! so i can play 14 minutes more a week

[lesbianseegullmaster]

but tuning is a good way to improve your ear... or you'll be playing out of tune at some point and not realise... I see it as part of the overall practice, stretch ur strings too! it increases tuning stability and buy better machineheads like grover or summat so u dnt have to tune up all the time

[ajaxrulzz]

That;s right but onstage you don't have time for it. But your right in that

[christopherisbored]

lol

[lilD1999]

fk one day i'll git that just for the h3ll of it..lol....

[kelseyislovexOx]

he really is pretending to be a "rockstar"

[kelseyislovexOx]

thats manhattan midnight... not silverburst.

retard.

[ajk321]

ur a n00b arnt ya

[rokerdude94]

What is this guy on about? It isn't silverburst. And he calls the pots buttons...

[Elektrik117]

four "buttons"

Wow. Can we please get someone that knows what they're talking about to do this review? Please? This guy is gonna kill me.

[maxwellmayer]

I like the vg strat a lot more, and in my opinion, if you get a VG strat, or any other expensive guitar, im pretty sure you'd know how to tune a guitar, or go out and buy a tuner

[snakemon78]

A real review would have consisted of how out of tune it was, then it tuning itself followed by a sweet jam by the reviewer.

[judomouse]

Whoa!

The previous 10 comments were posted by retards!!! WTF?

[Cultprits]

I hate it when people like him use and talk about a beautiful guitar like it's some piece of junk. I personally don't like the robot, but i still don't want him or people like him using a guitar.

[m0j0101]

what batteries does it use!!!

[DEMARSxALEX]

hahaha its not silverburst.. its blue

[StevenMarkMontgomery]

Lol, Yeah He Did Strumm Like A Slipknot Guitarist And He Cant Play Shit. The Guitar Is Awesome

[cookieman1717]

man u suck dick.learn to play

[foamyjesus]

"It may look like a standard silverburst les paul..." um no...it really doesn't. Its blue :E

[Atreyu4U]

fuck yeah he's just so stupid and this video is pointless

[rockerlife8123]

He called the knobs buttons, does he knw about guitars or just about other tech stuff and he strummed like a mad man

[PiercedDooD]

the "knobs" have buttons

AND you are dumb

[foamyjesus]

He did strum it like a mad man :E. He doesnt seem to know what he's on about at all.

[SyNysTerI1999]

Price is ?

[redbird963]

about $2500

[cheddarchazzz]

not really $2500

its $2700 at guitar center

[emo4elmo]

ITS 2787

[tdaness]

Price is $2799

They make a self tuning SG now too.

[methedrummer]

i thoguht the fender vg strat was the first auto tuning guitar.

[jamesxme]

VG strat was digital, it made the strings digitally in tune, but not acctualyl in tune

[noatablast]

know anywhere i can get one cheap like under $300 or lowest price

[neilss1]

No chance lol its bout $1300

[ginocolo911]

actually it costs $3,599

[neilss1]

The price of bein lazy these days eh? lol

[Cloud62493]

no it doesn't, I got mine for $3000

[eukey123]

No way you might get a broken one for 300

[chaldoantwan31]

300$ u will never get a robot for that much for another 20 years haha wen there making guitars with 9 necks

[xpirate4lifex]

ya definetly not silverburst. i havent even seen a blue one before

[krissyardlad]

lol if youre thinking about buying tht, you could just get a tuner, a good guitar and spend the rest on smack lol , which i think he's done because he thinks that that dark blue guitar is silverburst lol

[antoniown]

its so expensive because the technology is new and its the first of its kind in a bit it should go down a bit

[tattooyoublue]

Lame. Give the guitar to someone who knows what they're doing. Wanker.

[JackLawtey]

That's not silverburst, sir.

[dniel131]

why???,,, if you want noisless tuning get a digitech tuner (in the stomp box) and you could get a verry nice guitar with the money left over :/,,, its just something to show off to your mates really :/ ...

[46lar]

He knows nothing about guitars ... and it isn't even a silverburst

[drinkthesoupnow]

I fail to see why any self respecting musician would need anything like this; if you can't so much a tune a guitar but are willing to spend well over a thousand quid on one you've either got too much money on your hands or some warped priorities...

[birkett938]

u could just buy a tuner for ten pounds and then buy a decent guitar for around half the price of this one and still have quite abit of money left over............

[manics91]

If james bond had a guitar.. this would be the on

[fretboarder]

its just a friggin gimmick toy..

[graemec]

Hmmm, we are very close to 1st April...

[jarpartridge]

is that reaslly even s guitar. i have a guitsre and it is looking very differente to this one.

oh my god it is a real guitare.

are you english

[yatsey]

That wasn't a review that was a demonstration...

[robingread]

You can buy that self tuning kit!!!!!!!

[samthebassman412]

shame realli, the tuning thing wud of been a gud idea if they actually put some quality into the actual guitar.

[englandforever]

erm, it is a gibson les paul, probably the best quality ure gonna get mate

[samthebassman412]

true, but it wud be like £3,000 if they put the usual quality in of a gibson lp standard cos for the robot model they probably spent most of the money of which they had makin it tune itself and spent less / the remainder of the £1,400 on makin it to gibson quality. soz 4 soundin like a smartass m8...

[englandforever]

no, i see wat u mean now. if id was as good quality as a normal LP then it would be at least £2500 or sumin. sorry for sounding like a smart arse aswell lol

[samthebassman412]

haha, fair enuf m8, i was just guessin the price like, thinkin bout how much that tunin technology costs lol :)

[spameister]

No way mate. Gibsons are pretty poor compared to some

[aidyanimal]

ive played one of them on used it at a gig they feel cheap and not up to the high standard of gibson plus their not that easy to play i have a gibson lp standard and trust me they are a great guitar if u want a gibson get a standard if u have the money + their cheaper

[everycoolnamesgone]

the fact its a les paul

[hmmmeh]

*for a tuner and the name

[beckabrat]

lol, everyones commenting on the guitar playing

im not even sure this is a review hahahaha

[stickdude619]

cool :D

[1lupus]

So many wrong ideas about this guitar. Go look at the Gibson site. It actually does allow for a lot of pre-set tunings drop d open g etc etc. It also sets intonation which is normally only done by a technician. It also allows you to automatically restring. If you are playing live and need to change tuning for a song you no longer need a guitar tech or second guitar off stage. The cost $2500 US. You can still learn to manually tune, but this takes the boring shit out if you are in a hurry.
