NAMM '12 - Washburn Guitars FLB26SCE Acoustic Bender Demo

[DMSProduktions]

He's a BENDER! ;oP

[rrrrockin]

interesating ,not crazy about it ,,i think it would be combersome and repetitive irritating string ,,just my opinion

[superskwrl]

This product fails because its a lot harder to bend an acoustic string than an electric string.

[DeadWhiteButterflies]

It's a very interesting little innovation. I like how you have to move the guitar to bend it. It makes any motions you do with it feel and look very natural, which I haven't seen with new and recent guitars when they have new "innovations" put into them.

[guitarjoshie]

don't bend it? do you ever listen to bluegrass? tony rice, ron block, sean watkins, doc watson, mearle travis... come on... they all bend.

beyond that, forrest is the man. the end!!

congratulations forrest for having the balls to be a pioneer!!!

and congratulations to all the people that understand the guitar is out of tune. next year in 4th grade you can learn about ambient noise.

[clarocque]

Forrest glad to see this guitar out there.... These comments are funny... next they will be judging the tonal quality based on this you tube vid. Nice job!

[Riekiiii]

innovation

[JayTaylorCountry1]

It's an awesome guitar and a great pitch.... Good job Forrest, I want one... 

[TwangTown]

@LutherRayable Thank you, Luther. I appreciate your comment. I failed to tune the guitar prior to the demo. My bad.

Forrest Lee Jr.

[TwangTown]

Yeah Its a bit out of tune. Anybody that has been to a NAMM show could understand I couldn't hear anything but white noise. This is my signature guitar, and the bender does stay in tune perfectly, I didnt really get a chance to tune is ahead of time. I changed strings and had just a couple minutes before Premier Guitar showed up for this demo.

I MUST OWN THIS

[Scrappy1138]

Its sad that people care more about the girl than the actual guitar.

[Sweetychick85]

@Scrappy1138 Be fair, this is probably the only way a lot of them will ever get to see a girl. Basements get lonely and hands can only do so much ;)

[lUvmUzakkkxoxoxjklol]

@Sweetychick85 Basements and prison cells.

[Sweetychick85]

@lUvmUzakkkxoxoxjklol Darn! I forgot about the prison cells, where's my head at?

[lUvmUzakkkxoxoxjklol]

@Scrappy1138 FACT. Sad fact, but fact.

[CR0SSJ]

I think if u can utilise it well then it seems to be a great sounding guitar....

[illmatic702]

Cool idea, bad delivery. Although with some adjustments...

[cshargeit]

i held my breath.. this thing is not a steel guitar.. i shant elaborate.

[willemkerpel1]

catchy name it's got

[shango02005]

You people are picky as fuck! I think this is a great idea!

[ZepIV]

I like it! Innovation keeps the guitar world moving - even if that means ideas that aren't... "appealing" to everyone

[ShoreStudios]

I mean it definitely has that blue grass feel to it, but if I want that kinda sound I would just you know like get a banjo or something. Rebecca made this video totally worth watching :P

[ElCuatro1991]

horrible



[jonpaulling]

Nah...leave them on the Teles.

[0adireita]

seriously..don't bend it...

[ArturoKano]

Please no more bends :S

[iBrows1]

Cool idea, but in this demo most of the bending kinda sounds out of tune..

[merunfar89]

@iBrows1 i'm sure he's having trouble hearing himself play in there. give em a break.

[fiveslumprecords]

@iBrows1 Probably because the guitar is out of tune. I've played with Forrest for years, and he's one of the most sought after guitar players in the country...

[okamasphere]

screw benders

[RattAndMouse]

That string bending sounds fucking horrible

[fiveslumprecords]

@RattAndMouse Maybe because the guitar is out of tune, dumbass. Have you ever been to a NAMM show? You can't hear anything in there.

[RattAndMouse]

@fiveslumprecords yes... thats why it sounds horrible, dumbass. Oh ive not been to a NAMM show, so I guess my ears dont work and I cant hear the guitar, thats right. Back to your cage son.

[fiveslumprecords]

@RattAndMouse You don't get it... 'At NAMM' you can't hear anything. What a dope hahaha

[ArielsSmartyPants]

That's one sweet guitar, I've never really considered Washburn for acoustics. I'll have to take a better look at them.
