He Buys a Cheap Guitar On Amazon and it Arrives Like This

I jist got the Tostar jazzmaster. Seems awesome after some adjustments, and the little rechargeable practice amp with bluetooth one of the coolest guitar things I've owned.

They don't sell them perfectly set up, but the fret ends, wood, and finish matter more to me.

Funny, I read the description and it said nowhere in it that it had a amp with it. SMH

Landon, look at the address label: if it says Amazon chances are it did got mail from them, but unlikely they send it this way. The warehouse I work for we ship directly to customers and our packaging is horrible boxes twice the size of the product 😂😂 I have seen this guitar only in that trapezoid box shipped

Agreed. And amazon is giving many a hard time on returns, also

Moral of this story...Why d'you buy from Amazon?

Yay. Thanks! Comments

BTW. I love the “IPhone from China” line! Lol

Stop buying anything on Amazon.

People don't all want to see the underdog win, some hope for a bargain, some want to see their worshipped brand name confirmed and some really just want to know what there is between the price differences they see.
Normal, naturally ignorant and non-prejudiced people want to know what they buy with their money.

Oh man, I think I needed this video! "It doesn't suck!" FINALLY an honest review after so much hype about how these cheap guitars are "better than __________" It would seem to follow that if you order an ultra-cheap guitar, it's going to be, well, really cheap in every sense of the word. Hey, I'd love to get a real Strat or Les Paul for $150, but if I think that's going to happen I've got ( to borrow a phrase ) "another think comin;." Yeah, I also showed this video to my wife and she said, "listen to this guy and stop being stupid." I'm pretty sure she got on my laptop and subscribed too.

I purchased a Donner DST 152R from Amazon & it was pretty slick then, a les paul looking guitar caught my eye so I purchased a 39 inch Bullfighter SB series ms-lp (red) it is phenomenal. I love it! I've already purchased a hardshell case for it. However, I am seeing Bullstar, Bullfighter & censtar in descriptions of their other models. I want to try a few more of their models. I grew up on a 86 Westone spectrum LX 198mbk.

Doing good how are you?

They would be better off in Facebook marketplace getting something used.

That was my very 1st guitar, but in black. I got the beginner’s kit with the awful amp. The only good thing is that I had to learn how to deal with fret sprout, polish the frets, condition the fretboard, replace saddles and do the whole setup by myself. I think I paid 140 bucks for the whole thing plus around 100 bucks in parts. I sold it (in a very good playable condition) a few months after purchasing it.

I bought a Firefly it’s fine ! Also the Monsoon is another good one .. the last purchase was a Fesley 800 . Nice.. I like having choices and toys.. yes I have strats Mexican and American made, 1 Gibson SG and a few Squires including the Jaguars contemporary.. some axes need work but that can also be fun..
Dropping a set of active EMGs in a Westbrook is awesome..

Might be good enough as a back-up guitar to bring to a gig, or as a beater to bring to an open mic where you sit drinking in the crowd for three hours so you can play for 15 minutes or so. You won't mind so much if it gets bumped around or has beer spilled on it. I got an Ibanez Gio Super Strat style for $200 from Amazon and it's a solid well-made instrument that is as nice as one could possibly expect for that price.

Landon...you wanna get Scarred? HMU.

You took the words out of my mouth ! 🚫

39” is 0.37 inches shy of a full meter. A Strat is 38 & 15/16ths long.

"It's fine".🙊

Yo mannn, I love the video. But I'm wondering if you're looking for a video editor? I feel like I can help you produce better content your thumbnails are great.

The Guitar was better than the video. Didn't even stretch the strings before hitting the whammy.

Never bought a guitar from Amazon. Never gonna.

looks like it might be thin body like a Squier?

tuning will be an issue till the strings are stretched some like any new strings. and I got a used Starcaster Strat at my local Music-Go-Round for under $100 and a blackstar ID Core stereo 40 V-1 for the same at the same place both are good as they can be for what they are. I like to get my gear as reasonable price as i can. I bought the guitar to do an extreme mod upgrading or replacing electronics and hardware to my design. locking tuners, roller string tree as well as roller saddles and replaced the pot metal trem block with a full size solid brass trem block and a titanium nut. wired it like a 50's Les Paul with coil splits and the 500K Ohm vol. pots as are the tone pots but the bridge tone pot also a P/P to activate the bridge and neck P/U's together regardless of the 5-way sw. pos. so many tonal variations I didn't bother to even try to count them with all the switches and pots and ciol splitting. plus the onboard effects in the amp to choose from. Sound like fun? well it is and the guitar plays and looks great as well. Oh did i mention the custom rattle can and airbrushed paint scheme stars and planets motif with micro glotter scattered loghtly for the satrry sparkle effect on a black and dark blue base and semi gloss clear coat finish. the custom hand made brushed stainless steel pick guard loaded with the 3 quad rail humbuckers, chrome knobs and switch tip really sets the whole thing off well. Oh, did i mention that this is my very first ever guitar build/mod. yep I like to just go for it to get what I want.. the next will be an Esquire with original wiring scheme and the "ash tray cover they came with from the start. I got a Tele bridge P/U from Dylan, of 'Dylan Talks Tone' you tube channel he makes and sells boutique guitar pick ups. this one was part of an experiment with another pick up maker usins all the same parts and winder but made by the two builders as close as they could but with all things trying to be equal the two still sounded slightly different i got the one Dylan made in a spur of the moment give-away.. lucky me just what i need for my esquire build. then perhaps a SG and then a Les Paul Jr double cut. for fun. I want to literally build my guitar collection myself. one cool guitar at a time the way i want them.

I'm telling you bro, try out the Fojill mahogany light relic strat.

It's not a hit... it's a walk.

Take it camping, it'll be nice for fire word.

Double stops sound good but full chords do not for some reason. Nice color but I guess you get what you pay for. I've always subscribed to the belief that the best value is usually one or two steps up from the lowest point in the guitar chain. In other words sounds like a 4.

You can complain, return and replace it

I think because it is picking up both the amp and the acoustic sound of the guitar it sounds a bit funky. By the way it s 10 degrees here in Oz.

Don’t really understand why people want you to play through a cheap amp. A Fender Masterbuilt Custom Shop would sound bad through a cheap amp.

Maybe you should also show the guitar with the camera out of focus too … 😂

A good amp shows what the guitar is capable of … ESPECIALLY if it’s a cheap guitar.

Cloudy and 52 degrees. New+guitar=time to intonate. 99.8% of the time. I could use a couple more hits.

I thought about getting a midnight blue guitar like that, but I’m getting old and can’t stay up that late anymore

I'm buying the one on the bottom left, yes the one that comes with the girl. 😂

I've been very satisfied with the Harley Benton guitars I've purchased... A p90 SG Jr and a JA60 Anniversary edition Jazzmaster guitar. Well set-up, right out of the box. My only complaint is how much shipping is from Germany to the States.

Please, please review a Fender telecaster loaded with Filtertrons. Don't believe me that those exist? Google Fender Cabronita. They made a made in mexico series and a US version. It's literally impossible to find one new though :(

Well, I think now I'm just sticking to Sweetwater and I'm avoiding websites like Amazon where they don't even have reputable guitar brands. I don't wanna buy a Fender and get a Dender

Stop buying guitars from Amazon because Jeff has enough money already, try to use your imagination for a change.

👍Some great guitars made in the "third world" i.e. Gordon Smith (England) 😏

I just ordered a Te 53 Harley Benton, cheap guitar, . love the HB guitars, they work. greatings from Belgium .

SCAMAZON!

Hey Man, the amount of work you put into these videos is staggering. Thank you for being you! PGHF!!

As I said before, test it for LEAD.

Ill warch all your videos. Bht especially these cheap guitar reviews. Your eart videos got me a t380 and its amazing

The message I take away is teach your kid how to find good values at pawn shops and local used bargain basement/needs TLC (one music shop here has a big rubbermaid trash can by the door ala umbrella stand that has 50-75 buck charity cases that need excessive TLC but could be built up to functional).

Yuk!

Only a dumbass would buy the guitar you bought.
