Awesome reviews and great channel!! I'm fairly new to your channel and I've been wondering. Do you still tour for a living? I'm a young musician still in high school hoping to, at the very least, earn some extra money and inspire a few people along the way with music. Take care!!

Just got back from a mini tour in San Francisco. It was fun! You can watch the video; Carlos Reyes at Sonora.

Let me know what you think. There's a couple of guitar solos in the middle and at the end. The road is a hard life but has its moments. Sometimes you can do very well if you're operating at a high professional level.

Thanks for your interest.

I was going to buy a mexican made one the other day. But then I saw that the american made ones are like £600 more expensive. Can anyone tell me why? The specs seemed pretty similar. And it didn't seem right that I would be paying an extra £600 just because of where it's from :S

This decision is very subjective. This guitar to some would just be a beater. Compare this to a high quality American made guitar and you find people who prefer the beater. Go out and play guitars till one speaks to you and says, "Buy me!"

When colors come together and the energies in the universe harmonize, cosmic forces drive a man to overcome any and all obstacles in his way. I found that by matching my shirt with the guitar it turned me into a cosmic Marvel cartoon character capable of playing the guitar in a way that would transport me to the moon and back. I now can even go to hell and back whenever I play the guitar with a matching shirt. The devil always looks forward to seeing me and throws a party whenever I turn up.

Man, that was hard to watch...great playing...crappy "interview" (though I suspect no one was really interviewing this guy...probably just his own set-up to get onto you tube).

[bareknuckles2u]

What is this guy talkin' about most of the time? Maybe rehearse what you are going to say before you do your video...most of what you are saying is mumbo jumbo..still, you can play a mean guitar (way better than me).

[bareknuckles2u]

Good player..WAYYYY to much reverb!

real good guitar my dad had a 2003 tele. Sadly he just traded it in for another guitar

[TheWi32ard]

Actually.. George played a rosewood tele...

[mrdeersniper]

Would this be a good beginner guitar, I know I like a Strat.

[BlakeXIII]

@ArtOfRuin75 also, the cost difference from mexican to american isn't $600.00 it's about $350.00 because you can but an american special strat or tele for $800.00. As you can tell by my previous comment it doesn't make sense to buy a mexican because the cost will end up being the same as an american special once you start upgrading the parts on the mexican guitar.
