CHINESE KNOCKOFF GUITARS - HONEST review of the NK Headless Guitar

AND the Chinese even have a left handed version..

Love the guitar. Where can I read more on the specs & possible purchase? Can you include a link above?

Do you have a spotify channel?

If it can stay in tune it's enough for me to buy it. I play in church and my stratocaster after a hour feels so heavy in my shoulder. I'd love to get a headless guitar.

When you hit the subscribe button because of the Kurt Cobain joke...well done sir, well done XD

Don't blame the guitar for the pinch harmonics, blame your thumb.

Excellent video, thanks! Great tapping technique!

I have an Eart GW1 and a Boden Metal 6 neck-thru. Minus the pickups and overall weight (8 vs 5 lbs), they're pretty comparable.

Sir are you still using that headless guitar? Can I have it please. I'm from the Philippines though. Working minimum wage so its kinda hard hope I'll win this in like a raffle. Haha. I can only imagine.😅

Your a pretty awesome player.

Why’d you call it a “knockoff” instead of just calling it a “Chinese brand”?

Where can I get one of those?
i cant seem to find them anywhere...

The music in the background is like a fever dream bro 😭 😍 😩

Tempted to get an 8 string model, 8 strings always seem to be too cheap or too expensive... I usually always sell gear on and there's obviously not gonna be any resale value on these unless modded kinda. But I guess if you're gonna pay as little as you are for one of these you'll just keep it. Anyhow, great demo mate. They certainty look cool:)

thanks for not playing blues lawyer riffs!!

Fake means it isn’t real not that it’s low quality like a cardboard guitar or a plastic toy guitars are fake. Every high end Strat like guitar is a knockoff by definition if they $5K and above. Just because a boutique builder builds a Strat it does not make it not a Strat.

Are you sure about the scale length? Should be like 25-27. Never seen a multiscale with only a .5 inch difference. I could be wrong. I am interested in buying a multiscale and a headless, but if thats the correct scale dementions, not so sure if the NK is what im after.

Any of these (almost any) can be used as a good base for a killer mod guitar. Usually the woodwork is good enough that it's worth just for the work. YYMV ofc.

do you have a link where to buy that guitar?

where can i buy this strandberg knockoff lol cant seem to find it anywhere

I can tell you right now, I havent played a guitar as experytly manufactured as the Boden 8 metal in a long time. FANTASTIC instrument.

Do they make a fretless version?

It seems to sounds alright. How does it play?

No whammy bar is the one thing that I don't like.

Strandberg releasing the design to the public is the guitar equivalent of what Mutable Instruments did by releasing the codes of their popular Eurorack synths for everyone to modify/improve/copy. And, it is for the best of the whole community.

Where do i buy one?

how good the neck is for shredding?

Lol they're not even Chinese lmao

What I want in a guitar:
- Does it stay in tune? [NO] (Tuning Mechanisms)
- Will the strings last? [NO] (Tuning Mechanism, smooth frets, etc.)
- Do I like the design? [YES] (IBANEZ JEM... ahem)

I'll only buy it if all 3 parameters are there. Everything else is a matter of skill.

link of guitar ??

maybe not QUITE as good as the seymour duncans but VERY and i mean VERY f ing close

check this out iv just got one today and its a beast the pickups are as good as my seymour duncans!!! im staggered! u better believe it its a fucking beauty. im blown away i expected a right knock off job, and iv just bought a cheap 7 string 500 quid ibanez the nk absolutely blows it out the water in every single way. its got me the playing buzz fully, im in love with it; buy them if your thinkin about it especially now the pickups dont need changing, these are just as my seymour duncans il prove it with a video

The problem is humans think that they own their ideas.

I have one of these and they're Excellent!, the 2019-2020 were the best NK models that have the hardware you're showing in your video, the previous ones had cheaper and less accurate hardware, also, NK stopped doing exact Strandberg replicas in their bodies and now all the newer models are more "pointy" and ugly looking, they also stopped doing the ones with tremolos... Mine has a rosewood neck and I put Seymour Duncan's, it plays better than most guitars

if its from REVERB maybe the other owner did some work?

Ah so beach boy Jimmy. Whose nutty bone is it? Sum ting wong. :-() LOL

Not many people can buy stranberg. I have 5 guitars which costed all together less than stranberg :D

wow don't do coke before making a video!!

Owned an NK for 4 years now. Love it. 1/5 the price of my Stranberg and I love it just as much. Yeah the hardware and electronics are not as good, but great for the price. Plays just as good though.

No whammy no whammy no whammy! Sorry that's what came to mind when you said that.

Thinking of trading a boss katana 50 watt amp for one of these

“FaKe GuItaR”. “cHineSe KnOckOff” It just different brand dude. The same companies that produce tele guitar shape from fender. Do you call it knock off too?

It could double as a canoe paddle...

From where did you picked this one up?

Weight compare to The classic strandberg?

Thanks for the vid! Been eyeing Eart for a while now, glad you made a video. Loved your Scott Lepage review and your strandberg reviews!

Ironically, Ola used to offer the regular rounded neck shape in his Made to Measure shop if I remember correctly. With that said, I picked up a Strandberg Standard refurbished for $1440 and upgrading it with Abasi 7 fishmans once they arrive in the mail. These Chinese copies are cool and it’s definitely on Ola for making these designs files public, but I believe he’s done a lot for the guitar community and deserves my cash. Also I would own one of these if not for the fact that I’ve completely fallen in love with the Endurneck.

My first thought was that looks like a Kiesel, nope. Never thought much about headless guitars but I wouldn't mind adding that to the collection. Great video and jaw dropping licks as well, subscribed!
