Luke III by Rob Chappers

[yellowv03]

I agree I like the joking around and find Chappers to be a funny dude. They did one where they both put on wigs and went all 80's metal. LOL However as witnessed by the GAS they have stirred up in several of us they have done their job.

I agree, inane in-jokes and constant dicking around is so annoying. They are doing a review, not starring in Top Gear.

I liked it. Guitars sound good too. Chappers has that sort of personality---he's all fun and fingers!

 

[Roubster]

Don't get me wrong here. I like a sense of humor, but 20 minutes is literally a waste of time.

the amp doesn't sound "crappy " at all ! Funny review, thanks to the Brits I wonder what this guitar will sound like in my V3M Carvin amp, who "eats" my True Gold EMG x 's so well ! will update you soon ...

You can take the little slider on the bottom of the screen and fast forward to the good stuff.

I love these video demonstrations by Andertons. Brits know how to have some fun, unlike a lot of Americans. It sounds like you need to watch a Haggertys Music demo. Now, THAT will put you to sleep.

It's partly a cultural thing. Brits love that humour, us Irish have no problem with it, our antipodean cousins too, but to our transatlantic cousins I think it's just too much faffin' around (which I totally understand).

What about our other non-native English speaking forumites? Is 20 minutes of British humour too much for a guitar demo?

 

[ScoobySteve]

I like them personally. Plenty of others doing your standard objective review. Nothing wrong with a change of pace.

I enjoyed it. It's a nice change from dry guitar reviews you see all to often on the web. If one of those lasts 20 minutes I often don't watch the whole thing and miss out on the end conclusion. This I watched all the way.

Love the new passive pup tones in comparison to the EMG pups...

I'd love to hear a side by side comparison from someone that owns both. I love the neck so much on the L3 (HH) I have toyed with the idea of getting the SSH....

I'm an American here in the States and I love their humor and reviews. Hilarious stuff!

 

[Norrin Radd]

Ha! I think they're reviews are very entertaining. Music should be about fun, too. It doesn't always have to be brooding. Sigh.

In any event, for those who want some very straight forward no-nonsense reviews, check out the gear demos by Phil X. I'm sure you'll enjoy those.

Hilarious! I love Chappers reviews, he and Lee goof a little too much sometimes but their reviews are as entertaining as it gets. I am from Spain but have been living in the UK for the past five years and totally love the British sense of humor. It was a bit difficult to get at the beginning but a few episodes of Little Britain was all that was needed to start enjoying it.
The two Lukes sound amazing! I can't decide whether I prefer the definition of the EMGs or the liveliness of the DiMarzios. Killer guitars anyway!!

The dude on the right lost me from the beginning when he picked his nose, then started touching the guitar. Totally unacceptable !
