I thought Solars were anyway budget guitars, but anyway, this is a shill promoting his buddy's company.



At least I think he is, does say sponsored content iirc, and then I just stopped watching because I figured it was a hatchet job.
 
I love my Solar but still wouldn’t listen to a single thing this fuckbag has to say about them.

I definitely wouldn’t consider Solar’s in general to be budget guitars, but mid-priced that punch well above their weight. I’d consider grabbing one of those S E-types for a backup to mine. For $300, if it’s got the same neck shape, that’s pretty fuckin’ hard to beat. I know they use tech wood for the necks, so I’m guessing it’s some kind of composite that feels similar to ebony.
 
I wonder if Glenn has made enough money to buy a Solar guitar strictly off the ad revenue of the combined views provided by RT threads?
 
Fricker is actually Louis Black with a wig

I bought a Solar recently, the Fernandez Sustainer one in candy apple red that I almost bought a year or two ago but then they sold out of them and I kicked myself about it. So when they came up for sale again recently I jumped on it. I've always wanted a guitar with one of these things in it and the Solar is the coolest guitar I've seen that comes with one stock.

The Solar honestly punches far above its weight, which I was not expecting. I expected a fun shreddy gimmick guitar that can infinitely sustain notes for as long as the battery lasts, but I find myself picking it up a lot even if I don't mess with the Sustainer. It feels solid, it resonates well, the candy apple red color might actually be the best looking shade of red I've ever seen on an instrument, and the neck shape and fretwork feels great. It doesn't even have the typical cheap hollow feel/sound that guitars with Floyds can often (but not always) have.

No idea how the S by Solar guitars are though.

And yeah I'm not listening to anything Fricker has to say about it.

It's hard not to be jealous of Glenn's hair when you don't have any.

And Mary Spender is more annoying than loud mouth Glenn as far as I'm concerned. I pretty much despise all female youtube influencer guitarists. Whores, mostly.
