Electric is for noodlersbrbrIf you master acoustic you can sound like a whole band by yourself

After owning a mesa dual rectifier and both evh stealth model amp heads, I just can't go back I need the heavy chugs and all those amazing frequency
Comment from : @riffreaper6095

I can't be bothered with amplifiers anymore, acoustic is just fine❤
Comment from : @AnthonyClegg-d2v

electric guitars feel more like a audio instrument rather than an musical instrument to me
Comment from : @RimZeime

I love your vfx videos
Comment from : @enochbalbuena

@3:40 on solid body electrics, there is no such thing as "tonewood" 2? I say ZERO percent Electric guitar pickups do not pick up the timbre of any wood If you put an electric pickup on an acoustic, it will sound 100 "electric" Hey, grab a Gibson J165, the John Lennon acoustic during his Beatles days, and play it through an amp
Comment from : @maraviyoso8473

I love both, but I like my acoustics because it's more accessible and I don't need an amp for practice I just bought my first Acoustic electric guitar, a Yamaha APX600 we’ll see how that goes, my other acoustics are a Fender dreadnought and a Squire 3/4 which sounds amazing for some reason My favorite electric guitars are a Fender MIJ Aerodyne, a Squire Mustang, and an Ibanez S Premium lol I just play what I like I don't even care what people think anymore 😁
Comment from : @Just4Now-x1z

So good you've been resurrected from the dead brLiving in the acoustic world is like walking in heaven
Comment from : @cmhighway6215

Hell ya Acoustic all the way Who needs electricity for playing brCan't hear an electric around a campfirebrLolbrLolbrLol
Comment from : @cmhighway6215

Right on Tell the truth brother!
Comment from : @markpiano4676

I agree with you 💯 I have just sold a fender American vintage 2 61 Strat because the neck was horrible tool mark, bad rosewood, bad frets jobbrA just bought a new player 2 maple neck Mexican, funny thing for a third of the American vintage price the playing and QC was better it has convinced me not to spend too much on electric brWith acoustic you have for your money , I have to say that I have been impressed with Yamaha fs800 300$ Canadian you put a mic in front make a recording and I would be surprised if someone can say that it’s a cheap guitar
Comment from : @DenisSanacore

I'm not with ya here, but good on you for stating your passionate opinion :)brbrAcoustic comes in last for me Electric > classical guitar > steel string
Comment from : @BrianHunsakerMusic

The more I play the more I sway towards my acoustics
Comment from : @dmatt1116

I like the sound of both But for playing as a hobby, I prefer acoustic
Comment from : @Bingo2501

You need both
Comment from : @frankhunt2800

How does that Natasha sound compared to the Alavarez Ad30 you recommended? Its only like $150 more
Comment from : @BJJandBS

There's nothing like a good acoustic guitar❤
Comment from : @IvanRx76

Im mostly a calm jazz blues type of guy but sometimes when i feel like doing a riff or something hard i practice on my electric and do it on my acoustic
Comment from : @SamAx

I really don’t like the sound of amplified guitar acoustic sound is more soothing and feels more real to the ear you can’t hide your true skills
Comment from : @MarioGarcia-wr4qs

Just depends on what your doing Both are great For me the way an electric sounds unplugged is arbitrary It's the feel and the action I can change the way it sounds once plugged in
Comment from : @timesurfingalien

Youth pastor? Gross lol
Comment from : @bmosk94

Lol no
Comment from : @studentofbecker

I like electric guitar more because I love to rock ‘n’ roll
Comment from : @rockinricky4855

I feel an acoustic guitar sings, while an electric guitar screams brAll depends on what you want to do brI play electric bass, doubt it’ll ever be acoustic
Comment from : @barondavis5692

I really needed to see this
Comment from : @Landlord0fTheFilthy

yeah but try chugging on an acoustic
Comment from : @asparagoosagus5954

I had an acoustic first, but was never motivated to play it, but I went to a guitar store with my friend who already played, and I was instantly motivated to learn just from seeing them, so I stuck it out for a few months on the acoustic, and got an Ibanez gio for my birthday, I think I played for around 4 hours a day, every day for 4 months straight on that, when on the acoustic I’d pick it up once every couple of weeks Now (a year later) I still play a few hours a day, and love playing electric way more They are also just way more comfortable to play, and have way more tonal range I hope to get a warmoth Jazzmaster or warmoth mooncaster this year, still deciding which one
Comment from : @Gliese710_

All those jump shots and cuts or whatever they are called in one sentence, I think you spliced eight different clips of you saying different words I could only watch about 2/3rds of it and now I've got to go : (
Comment from : @xs10z

Grandpas guitars? Nos ways those are for pussies ands grandpas
Comment from : @bobthebuilder2517

electric guitars are analog synthesizers with a guitar shaped form factor
Comment from : @diegesisfreak

When you are younger, you're impressed by electric guitars and drums and bass because that's the foundation of most bands, and who doesn't want to be in a band I was blown away by virtually any guitar playing except for bluegrass which I seen as old folks' music Now that I'm older, guess what? I love bluegrass and think it's the pinnacle of guitar playing That said, I love watching the greats jam the blues on electric guitar One thing you can do on electric that you don't see much of on acoustic is slide guitar I never learned how to play slide, but anyone that can do it well is a player and performer that should be gigging regularlybrbrGowing up, I ended up learning drums first and that's what I did for many many years until I realized that a simple acoustic guitar would be so much easier to carry around and have fun with, so I changed gears entirely to the guitar world I have a telecaster, but I really enjoy acoustic much more I wish I had started guitar much earlier

5:47 All metalheads are insecure and are hiding behind the music Got it
Comment from : @deludedreality89

So true
Comment from : @andrewhnorris1

You could string up a 2x4 with pickups and it wouldn’t sound much different from a vintage Tele
Comment from : @BillBurnette

5:45 Play music that you can't hide behind That is what all beginners and beyond need to hear and remember
Comment from : @JoshuaPatrickGarrett

I wish the nomenclature of acoustic guitars was more user friendly It’s hard to know what an OM or a 000 or a D18 means, as opposed to Strat or Tele for instance brI feel like even though they are beautiful it’s hard to look at a box of wood and see multi thousand dollar price tags brAcoustics just seem more unapproachable to me anyway
Comment from : @portsideguitar1981

You actually CAN hear if a electric guitar is good without pluggin it in
Comment from : @subzSauria

If you cannot impress people on an acoustic guitar you are not a guitar player Anybody can impress on an electric guitar in a very short time
Comment from : @stringlocker

Strum your electric 🎸unplugged If it sounds great unplugged your on to something 😉
Comment from : @stonephilips9361

They both have their place in music And, yes, I wound up changing much of my electronics on my electric guitars As far as ‘pedals’ - just one for me: Line 6 HX series
Comment from : @edjones1125

It’s fun to squirrel with the amps and make some cranked noise But there simply isn’t any substitute for the beauty and incredibly rich sound from an acoustic Hands down: acoustic
Comment from : @OregonBreault

So let me get this straight, you think a Les Paul with a cherry sunburst finish looks terrible, however you own a pink paisley Tele
Comment from : @TommySG1

Your ‘57 Country Western is the tits brother!!!
Comment from : @kerbyfab

this entire video makes absolutely no sense It's a silly rant
Comment from : @rodnyg7952

As someone who plays both, I would spend more money on my acoustics than my electrics That said, I've spent far more money on my electrics, mainly because my dad gave me two fanastic acoustics
Comment from : @shred5

I agreed that it is better but I argue try to move 30k angry fan on an acoustic guitar after 5 songs just isn’t possible
Comment from : @noysdn4001

The painfully expensive accessories are why I never got an electric My Gibson plays great, sounds great, and if I plug it in the only downside is I'm sporting nineteen frets vs twenty four brbrI know guys who still chase that perfect electric guitar without realizing its never gonna sound very good through their tired portable amp
Comment from : @DustyNonya

I’ve got 3 of each but as I’m getting older and want to simplify things a bit I’m playing my 3 acoustics more these days and find the electrics more hassle setting them up and plugging everything in Acoustics are better for solo players for those who play at home alone
Comment from : @Hammonds77

Have to agree Playing an acoustic well makes you a better electric player I always find it funny when people say “that electric would be my desert island guitar” hey buddy you’d need electricity 😂 You can hide behind an electric, you can’t with an acoustic Got a 1930 Gibson L-1 as well as other various acoustics and electrics but the sound from that little, light acoustic is otherworldly
Comment from : @Richard_Lush

SPOT ON, BROTHER!!!! From an '80's metalheadonly play acoustic for the last 20 years Still chasing my dream acoustic guitarI'll know it when I'm playing it!!!!🎉🎉🎉
Comment from : @douglasholdenjr45

For me electrics are way easier to maintain and store properly, i once had 2 D28s, one was vintage and in prestine condition, i was just worried about it all the time cause it had no good place to stay other than its case, so i didnt play it that oftenmy electrics i let them chilling on my carpet, my bed, just everywere ready to be played and plugged into my home rigand they handle temperature changes a whole lot better, i just have 1 good acoustic 4 now, my 1996 D28, thats basically all i need, it gets gigged and i bring it outside
Comment from : @WhammyBarTV

Nothing calms me down like a little time with my acoustic
Comment from : @jimmarinella9455

100 on all points!
Comment from : @MashaT22

How for a very silly way to start the new year rave on lightly
Comment from : @Ziraffe2

As someone who started guitar in the last couple of years, in my 40s, I have an accumulation of Acoustic and Electric I started with Acoustic and now have at least 20 each of both I feel like Acoustic Guitars are unique in their tone because everything about them is natural and I can pick up my cheapest acoustic guitar and enjoy it immediately They are harder to play because you have to have really good technique to have clear notes Electrics on the other hand have the greatest range of self-expression, which means, you can tweak the sound to express your mood, your liking etc They are easier to play than Acoustics They are beautiful to look at Both are enjoyable Acoustic Guitars are unique, Electric Guitars can be made unique according to your liking I like them both I can't decide which I would choose if I could only have one guitar That's my 2 cents
Comment from : @philos212

I think it depends on how much you play either one I love the simplicity of acoustic guitar, but with a good amp or rig, electric can be pretty magical too
Comment from : @kristopherk5454

Always wanted to enjoy electric guitars To me, I am a “no nonsense” kind of person and I’d rather have most everything I need right in my hands I really hated always wanting new amps and effects For some reason, I’m perfectly content with just one, maybe 2 acoustics With electrics, I was constantly wanting more and more “stuff” That’s my rant 🤷🏼‍♂️😂
Comment from : @andrewcoffey4694

No contest besides that it's subjective
Comment from : @revzone3544

Amen brother
Comment from : @Nathan-d7t

Let's be honest without the pickups, an electric guitar is just a pointless piece of (waisted) wood
Comment from : @davidscotbrown3241

Some of the best songs have both
Comment from : @ExtremePlantGrowing

My two favorite guitars in this video in order 2021 Padgett Model One and the 2022 Furch Vintage I've never heard of either before but both sound beautiful
Comment from : @814Taylor

With an acoustic guitar you get what the builder gives you With an electric once you find one that plays the way you like, it's a blank slate
Comment from : @rong648

I got electric acoustics,tele y etc but not my om 21…I got acoustic piano all wood body etc but not the strings y the like…I got electrified keyboard ( Korg)😂
Comment from : @startreker8591

This was a very thoughtful video, great job Jermey
Comment from : @jamienaundorf8798

Completely agree I was in a metal band for 20 years as a singer As I got into playing guitar post band days I was hooked on sound of an acoustic guitar and how it fills a room I find song writing much easier on an acoustic as well
Comment from : @Microphone5158

Love your videos and your playing You are such an acoustic player!!! You sound so much more at home on an acoustic
Comment from : @michaelconnors5732

0:35 The caption says Squier, but the guitar says FenderI'm confused
Comment from : @timothymallon

Electric guitars have their place I will probably even get one someday But I have several more acoustic I need to collect first

Absolutely fantastic have a wonderful day Jeremy ❤😊

Comment from : @lawrencecrouch1560

Hmmmmwell, you suffer from what most Americans suffer from, your unfounded dumbassMartinTaylorGibsonFender worshipping done drunk the kool aid bias Good choice for click bait to boost your views, thoughbrComparing electrics with acoustics is like saying men can give birth and women have penises, or a dog isn't a catReally? Thought I already knew that!
Comment from : @dietersdawgs

Apples vs Oranges Different instruments, different applications Should not be compared Both are good at what they do Good and bad examples of both Not saying the points you make aren't valid But running my D28 through my envelope filter just doesn't do that funk thang! I tried
Comment from : @kapstersmusic

Skip ahead to 5:56, ITS THE SIMPLICITY!!!! Acoustic, grab it and play it Electric, Does my cord reach? What amp should I use? Pedals You get the point Oh and forget about going outside!! lol ok I'm done rambling
Comment from : @freonmaster599

My Furch Yellow OM Sitka/Padauk is the first guitar in my 3 years of playing to make me feel something special Picking it up feels like going home I’ll never part ways with it My electrics are all just fun hotels I stay at when I’m away from home

Horses for courses mate But I'm definitely an acoustic guitar guy
Comment from : @TheChocDonk2000

I cant figure out if this is satire or not If it is, disregard all comments belowbrbrJeremy, I love your channel and your content, but that is utterly ridiculous First of all, totally apples and oranges You cant just say all acoustics are better than all electrics You cant compare a $50 shit sounding acoustic to a largely handcrafted custom shop Les Paul, or a $5000 Martin dreadnought to a $100 Les Paul copy Secondly, I can convincingly refute literally every statement here There are great acoustics and great electrics, and there are absolute dogs in both categories aswell
Comment from : @jantje155

Saying one guitar type is better than the other type is very subjective and open 100 to personal taste "One mans trash is another man's treasure" For me as long as someone loves the guitar plays music and has fun that's all that matters!!
Comment from : @michaelbalog8998

There is old magic in an acoustic instrument
Comment from : @krutplaysaguitar

Acoustic guitars have such beautiful sounds, they speak to my soul They are all different Electric are great for playing in groups and clubs but acoustic is great for any time Thank you
Comment from : @anthonyb2334

I know this is just a fun video with a provocative title Good on you for your fearless YouTube tactics 🤓brbrI am glad that I started on acoustic and spent so long with fundamental stuff before playing electric It just makes it so easy breezy You can’t hide on acoustic Get good or get out
Comment from : @Blondesax

I used to love electric until I found a great sounding acoustic Now I always reach for the acoustic
Comment from : @DrewHughesMusic

I know what you mean bro!!brAlthough I would push back on electric guitarsbrThere are some hints to a good electric, as you mentioned, lightweight guitars feel good to me and how a guitar is set up, there's a snappy quality in a electric guitar if it's good as you pluck the strings But overall I agree with you
