The mf’ing H90

[Spaced Out Ace]

The Flight Time is mono so no issues there. What you heard is what it sounds like.

You shitass. I was hoping you'd say it was in stereo, so I didn't end up buying it. Lol

 

[Orvillain]

You shitass

I like the direction this thread is taking.

I have a DD500 and it’s still better than most. Fucking kills the H90.

Playing around with the Rockman pedal into the H90 direct to interface. Weird going no amp or cab.

H90 sounds great for dreamy soundscape stuff \m/

A small snapshot of typical fit and finish issues before you even get to the core manufacturing brief. It IS a POS . I don’t care what it costs I’m looking at it in disassembled detail. There are plenty of examples of expensive shit too .

I'm sorry - what exactly is POS here? Is the playability or tone bad here? If not, I really don't give a hoot about fit and finish at this price point if there aren't any glaring omissions.

Also - there's a thing called variability - no two guitars are ever the same. Just because you got your hands on a sample-size of one of one model, that doesn't tell you the whole picture.

The lower the price point, the higher the variability. But that doesn't mean you can't find a good one. My point is that you don't need to spend $4000+ to find a good guitar anymore. I would say guitars in the $500-$1500 range are now very, very good. Yes, you may have to hand-select - but you can easily get a top playing and sounding guitar for not much.

Now if you're going to take a magnifying lens and go over everything and highlight every tiny imperfection - you may find some stuff that you don't like - but that doesn't mean that those guitars are 'POSs' as you state. I've played guitars from all spectrums for 30 yrs - Andersons, Suhrs, Ibanez Prestige series guitars, PRS Core etc....I can easily find guitars as good (playability and tone) as many of those expensive guitars that I've owned and played over the years. I don't care, on an electric, if you're using North American Alder or not - I'm perfectly fine with lower cost woods.

With acoustics (where wood can matter more), I've played many Martins and Taylors that pale compared to much cheaper guitars in projection, volume, sensitivity etc. So again here, I'm not seeing a pattern of expensive being better always.

If the guitar sounds and plays good, how much quality exactly do you need? Do you get more when you go to Goodalls, Lowdens, Ryan, Trauggot, Somogyi, True North, Froggy Bottom etc.? Maybe - but at what cost?

If there’s a tiny blemish in the finish at the neck joint it’s obviously a shit guitar.

Tiny blemish. You obviously like shit.

If i can’t tell the difference in tone or playability, I really don’t care about the finish at the neck joint lmao

Maybe my senses aren’t as “in tune” as yours hahaha

Clearly you have no clue of what quality looks like or sounds like. The S7 has a harsh poor tone and often function issues. Why do guitar players that can’t get the tone out of an instrument assume that it’s all a matter of opinion and if they sound just as bad on £5k as £500 then there is obviously no difference. Sort of like the reverse Larry Carlton effect.

Oh sample size of every one I see. Probably about 50 so far.

Why are you on a guitar forum if you think that one of the worst instruments I’ve ever seen at its price is perfectly fine and nothing matters. If you can’t see and hear the issues with these take up golf because music is not your thing.

I don’t care about your opinion on an instrument, especially after I’ve seen how you behave/act/interpret other opinions other than your own. That extends to your opinion of me and how you think “music is my thing” lol
