  • 1:58 rebapeppaba what???

  • Marty! Those Indians won't even be there!

  • this guy reminds me of a gay version of badger from breaking bad

  • dude your a sick guitarist man. You look like u no what your talking about. Thanks !

  • damn dude someone did their homework

  • The volume, distortion and amp makes all the difference in sound.

  • Please could someone help me? Would appreciate any advice given... I am a young guitarist who has played for seveal years but doesnt have a clue really about guitars, I just know how to play them. I have a squier affinity and a standard mexican strat. I prefer my squier because the neck is thinner and is much easier to play but the sound isnt as good, I don't really like the feel of the mexican at all. What i am looking for is a srat with a thin neck that also sounds great. Can anyone help?thank

  • i want a strat so badly.

  • Maldita Publicidade!!Ninguém quer ver propaganda antes do vídeo...

    Isso é uma grande falta de respeito com os usuários do you tube..

    Ja ta perdendo a graça o you tube...

    Graças ao MALDITO MARKETING!!

  • someone can tell me the difference between a mexican standard and an american standard??

  • @abcde6409 the wood they cut best goes into deluxes then american standards then mexican standards the squiers and the stock pickups and hardware are all better on the american

  • @itwillkill thanks

    

  • @abcde6409 Better quality materials, like solid wood, not filled and spliced together pieces, better quality pickups, better factory conditions, less moisture and such, better quality control too, less mistakes make it out the door.

  • @hillbillygenius72 really thanks

  • i wanna buy this guitar it is goog please answer

  • @ROTVAJLERI dont buy it, its total crap in my opinion. go for a used fender/squier japan, better and cheaper.

  • @ROTVAJLERI yep, it's goog.

  • why'd they put gloss on the front of the neck??? seriously I just got it and it's great but why the gloss on neck front?!!?!? and the neck joint is actually an ass. I don't know what to do with this guitar...

  • @coolmega33 yeah, i dont get it ether. i also dont like the 2 point trem.

  • i prefer the stratocaster.

  • Is it me or is there barely any difference between those strat pickups?

  • @MrTerrormonkey one of the requirements of playing guitar is having ears.

  • @ladyrainbowitch Ok, check. I have ears. What now?

  • @MrTerrormonkey I have the hss (same single coils I believe Tex Mex) and honestly the single coils won't sound any different unless you drastically make the pickup height different. I mean they're the same pickup :/. Not a big deal though and hum from the neck pickup really isn't that bad, at least on my amp. Only is noticable if you turn up the treble too much on the guitar, if you want to remove the hum it's simple! Turn treble down on guitar and turn it up on the amp if you still want it

  • "22 frets for all your needs" - Paul

    I believe you really need 24 frets so you can have four scales. I love my strat copy though!!! <3

  • Its a great strating guitar??! Are you kidding me? Maybe if you think paying 1 grand dor a first guitar. I wish!!

  • @stevierayDOM18 I think he meant a great starting guitar for someone who has never had a strat before, but already plays guitar

  • Just testing.

  • The American standard stratocaster is not even close to the total tone versatility of a 2007 single cool highway one stratocaster it's not even an Argument.

  • The 2007 single coil USA made Highway one fender stratocaster is most certainly the best production stratocaster made since 1968.

  • I have an American Standard... but its a toilet.

  • @1TheGoodGuy1 Bet it sounds like crap.

  • @1TheGoodGuy1

    if this is crap I want a guitar sounding like crap

  • @diogorenato I dont think you get the concept of the joke

  • @1TheGoodGuy1 can i have it 

  • @1TheGoodGuy1 the problem might comes from the set up?

  • @wrigleyx Slightly...

  • @1TheGoodGuy1 hahahaha!

    

  • he actually played really decently around 6:04, the sound is great though.

  • How Much Does it Cost ?

  • @MegaErding91 1000$

  • @MegaErding91 $500

  • @GuitarFreak1901 Your a little off. These are made in america, better pickups, wood etc. They go from 900 to 1050 depending on paint job. Though the MSRP on fenders sight is about 1500 dollars :).

  • @proreview3153 Your thinking about the Deluxe, the Standards are 500

  • @GuitarFreak1901 No, deluxes are about 1500. I think your talking about the mex strats.

  • @proreview3153 Yeah, you're right, my bad.

  • About how much would it cost to get my Strat refinished to Fiesta Red? :D

  • HOLY CRAP WHAT PEDAL DID YOU USE FOR THE STRAT?!?!?! I WANT IT!

  • @guitarworld does the 22 frets make the neck pickup be closer to the middle pickup? or is the same?

  • Thumbs up if you hate paul.

  • @SpearShark If you hate him you can always just unsub. :s

  • @SpearShark why do you hate him? Do you know him or are you just pathetic and 12

  • @ArchieIsted he is boring, he is in every guitarworld's video and he always starts video sayinh: "hi, this is Paul from guitarworld! I also want to annoy! 8)". thats boring.

  • @SpearShark Yep you are 12. You have a lot of growing up to do

  • does it really hum that bad? wtf

  • I thought he was gonna play Wake Me Up When September ends for a second xD

  • Michael J. Fox! Thank you for the demo.....

  • Thats an ugly guitar!

  • :O you said "dammit"

  • The white one is stratocaster, the half brown-half white one is telecaster.

  • @hitmanliveforever no shit

  • @VICJR98 The guy asked and I answered. I know its obvious.

  • which one more better stratocaster or telecaster ???

    please reply ...thnkssss

  • @zack12ish depends on what you want to play...

  • @zack12ish it's whatever you think, just play both of them and see what you think

  • Comment removed

  • This guy has the heavier hand I've ever heard (pretending Alexi Laiho doesn't exist)

  • what a bøs

  • så ulækker!! ewwwwhhhh

  • This Tele thing compared to Strato sucks

  • fantastic skills

  • Bolt on neck :/

  • @NiceJackToo I can't say I've ever seen a stratocaster made by Fender with a set neck or neck through. Bolt on is their standard.

  • @TheDancingSaxophone ritchie blackmore had a signature with fender. A strat with a neck trough :)

  • @TheDancingSaxophone I have a custom shop fender calendar and recall a set neck strat, although obviously this is very unusual as you say

  • Michael J. Fox!

  • do you think an 05 indonesia made squire will have hum canceling capabilities aswell?

  • 7:18 is the reason I'm getting a tele

  • @ymfarhi The strat can sound similar, but he hasnt played that song on strat.

  • @IsotopeC12 yes but you'll never get the puch/tanginess on a strat.

    Anyway the best guitar is rickenbacker

  • @ymfarhi

    That your opinion, that dosent mean it's the truth.

  • @baconbut95 When I say the best I mean it's my favorite

  • @ymfarhi

    Ohh, sorry.

  • good chops

  • STFU AND PLAY!!!!

  • try the ibanez Universe

  • Hey Paul, can you suggest a good 7 string electric guitar? some specific brands...

  • @SanjeevGeorgeV esp :) or Jaden rose!

  • @Miteour17 Thanks . Do you know about the Ibanez UV777? That's very expensive. DO you know of any guitar with similar features but less expensive?

  • @SanjeevGeorgeV Well....Try Rondomusic they sell lots of 7 string super strats with a Tremolo (floyd)

  • HES SO ANNOYING! SOMEONE STAB HIM

  • What amp and what strings?!

  • what kind of finish these guitars have?i mean can be reliced over time??

  • @christofa96 No,they can´t :)

  • @rakafix99 which stratocaster and telecaster models are possible to be reliced over time except the road word series?

  • @christofa96 any thin skin or vintage model because they use nitro finishes. Basically any guitar that uses nitrocellulose lacquer will show age over time.

  • how many years will it take for me to learn how to play the guitar like this lol

  • Anyone with an ounce of sense would have opted for the #Telecaster as I did,,,I also have a leftie EuroCaster, rare but good, #Howard

  • lov it.

  • what is him ampli ?

  • Comment removed

  • Why does it seem like a lot of people go for telecasters because they're "unique"? Isn't music about sound rather than appearance? I tried a telecaster after playing a strat and for me it just didn't seem as versatile as a strat. I felt like there was so much more that I could do on a stratocaster tone wise. The tele had a great tone but it was all about the bridge pickup because the neck pickup on a strat to me sounds better than the neck pickup on a tele. That plus no whammy bar.

  • @1con0clast Most people go for teles because of that twangy tone they give, not because of who they look. In fact, nowadays they're not considered very unique at all. Although I must admit, the tele twang is defiantly not for everyone

  • @mrciaran96 Well I stated that some people choose telecasters in order to be "unique" because whenever someone asks if they should get a tele or a strat someone says, "oh everyone plays a stratocaster, get a tele instead" or they'll say that stratocasters are over used and suggest getting a telecaster.

  • Comment removed

  • @TheJH3000 you can play metal on any guitar

  • @TheJH3000 I'd probably replace the bridge pickup with a mini-humbucker, so yeah.

  • @TheJH3000 That was the most dumb ass question. Use your imagination...any solid bodied guitar can do metal. Sick of seeing this asked on EVERY gear demo--some nimrod saying, "can it can play metal?"

  • Gibson have a different character than Fender, i cannot compare both brands, but coming from me that i am a metal player , i prefer Gibson, but actually i'm thinking seriously to buy a Telecaster

  • yeah but what amp is he using there??

  • hi there, Strat fans can you have a look at that please?

    GARY MOORE - BLOOD OF EMERALDS, Polish Tribute to the Irish Guitar Legend

  • check out my handmade telecaster in my channel!

  • check out my handmade telecaster in my channel!

  • gibson kill these guitar 5x over

  • @f1l173 guitars*

  • @f1l173 Do you actually know anything about guitars?

  • They both sound the same

  • All hail Leo Fender for this great creation!

  • do you prefer a v neck or c neck and do you prefer a rosewood fb or a maple fb?

  • @emvir8gto8

    Strat: V neck, rosewood

    Tele: C neck, rosewood and maple

  • hi man ,um what kind of amp do u use at the video and do u use any copmression pedal?

  • Damn it, they look like country!

  • there both good realy.

  • I thought 70s Fender didn't have a thick laquer on the neck? I have two Squier Vintage Modified basses and they have no/satin finish on the neck, unlike the 60s Classic Vibe, which does.

  • I know it's been brought up in the video but which one of these is better for alt rock in your opinion. I'm in an alt rock band and play rhythm guitar\vocals, if you can let me know what you think the best choice would be. Cheers guys

    Joe

  • @middleclasssociety jaguar! =D

  • @PumpkinKyuubi as it happens I've just tried out a jazzmaster today and I love it defo getting it

  • so tele is alternative, so then whats strats?

  • Hey man that is a crap sound. I dont Like

  • i hate how people say teles are only for country

  • Paul rules!

  • hows the telecaster for the blues

  • @DRGK9 No guitar has as been closely associated with Blues than the strat

  • I'm thinking of getting a new guitar but I'm stumped a bit between a telecaster and a Gibson melody maker. Any opinions would be great!

  • @bosanac10109 noooooo :D :D :D

  • /watch?v=2o9XtkwLEwk&feature=r­elmfu

  • how do i get this solo setting??? Can anyone tell me???

  • i have one :-) but its in 3TS (best color for strats)

  • @KingFrush black road worn is bettaaaaa

  • @NIFHFS no Jimmy page is not shot I bet you don't have a Gibson eds

  • @mrciaran96 that's not what I ment, I don't like pickguard how I it is straight and I don't like the headstock shape

  • Hmm I like the teles sound but I dont like the design I think there ugly

  • @TheBlacksabbathfan9 sunburst teles dont look nice, but black and maple ones look great, or lake placid blue with rosewood

  • I fucking hate where the squire and strat place the whammy bar. But the guitars are still great guitars.

  • Srat is more like a rock guitar and tele is...?

  • vote for strat!

  • nice chops

  • What do u think of this:

    Fender classic 50's black

    Tortoise pickguard

    Klein jazzy cat pickups

    Wilkinson classic tremolo

    Schaller locking tuners

    ?

  • @skylorz how about this fender custom shop '60s abigail ybarra pups lake placid blue.:) she sounds devine. HSS strat :(

  • proud owner of an american standard HSS strat! the BEST guitar i have in my arsenal. over the fernandes revolver pro 81, over the peavey EVH wolfgang, over the washburn wp80 les paul, and even over my esp h207 7 string. the only thing id change about my strat is the ability to split the diamondback humbucker at the bridge

  • @caressxofxsteel you owen a guitar shop thats some list dude.fair play to you. :) rock on .

  • @MsChrissummerfield lol you can never have enough guitars tho. every guitar has its own personality. but ya i lose control when i go to guitar shops! lately especially since im workin on moving out of my parents house if i find a guitar i love i have to leave whatever guitar store im at because id end up blowin all my money on it

  • @MsChrissummerfield for example i stopped at a private owned guitar store one day and i saw a used gibson SG doubleneck and i picked it up and i was just uncontrollable. it was like a 78 had a few dings in the body but it played and sounded awesome and i HAD to leave or else i was gonna blow 5 grand

  • the HSS strats sound mean. a split coil bucker would be cool . a 1275 double-neck SG would have been a nice edition to your arsenal.i have my gib les paul std. and fender c,shop '60 strat. love your guitars you have good taste .:)

  • @MsChrissummerfield i love my HSS i mean i can get anything from the dirtiest most disgusting and meanest metal tones all the way to the cleanest of clean tones with it. and one thing i bitch about with tone is that my sound whether its dirty or clean has to be big, real, and ballsy but having great dynamics and articulation and being able to put out as many frequencies as possible and it just works the best for me

  • Sexy sound

  • hehe tone pot..... you mean weed

  • @FinalFantasyCenter thanks. I'm done relicing it and it looks totally awesome. Didnt use a hammer though xD

  • i love that part at 8:38

  • Generally what is the difference? Like the Tele, Strat, and Les Pauls are the "American" guitars. The tele obviously has more twang to it (unless it's the effect)? And the Strat is pretty good for rock

  • @trashthethrasher Strats are pretty good for everything, that's why they're so popular.

  • @robbie932 it wasnt shaped like a nocaster/telecaster it was the shape of a stratocaster with the headstock of a telecaster and the pickgaurd went up both horns/cutout parts and it was thinline/ semi hollow

  • Comment removed

  • i have an olympic white on maple fretboard american standard strat and it definitely is one of my most treasured things that i own or ever will own... EVER!!!!!

  • That solo sounded exactly like Eric Johnson

  • i need some help here someone... i was at my local music store yesterday and i found a fender, it had the scratch board of a base, the headstock of a telecaster, it was semi hollow, and it was shaped like a stratocaster, and it had no name next to fender logo on the head and it didnt say where it was made on the back of the head, could someone please tell me what is is/called?

    (this might sound ridiculous but im serious)

  • @ILLbiteURfaceCNT I don't have too much knowledge of guitars but that may be a "Nocaster" by fender. I'm not too sure though.
