Sir, this review and also the comments you gave below are top notch. Been looking for something to play when the baby sleeps in the next room - I look no further. This plus nylon strings will be my choice. Thanks for a great job you did!

Seems like it may respond best with ultra light string gauges?

Easy answer - no it's not "worth it".

like for the cat in the frame ))

Your feline friend stole the show. I love it! Great review and thank you for posting this. I just ordered one since they're on sale for about $120 USD here in Australia.

….non si mette un campanello al collo del gatto od ad un cane diventano MATTI, si sente dal video che il tuo gatto nero ce l’ha…STRONZO!!! 😖😖😖

mine just stop sounding, it turns on but volume controls does not work not even bluetooth works

I have the Amplifi 30 brick (put it away last year after more or less the same issue). Of course line 6 were no help. After watching a few more current videos I've removed the micro SD card and are trying to reload software etc..(so far no cigar) and although I did give up on it last year I'll try to at least use the speakers if everything else fails. disappointed as I have the JTV 59 and the Helix. I did replace the Amplifi 30 with the Yamaha TH10 II which seems to be a much better product.

I got one for 125$ on ebay refursbished from donner

Hi Miles thanks a lot for your great review. It is so nice to listen to some expert unbiased opinion. I want to get this guitar but is it possible to replace the tuning keys with after market ones? Yes or not would impact on my decision. All the best mate

Yeah......I think I prefer my Yamaha Silent Guitar. Admittedly, its more expensive. I've been wanting YoMamaHa to come out with a lapsteel in the same form factor. I play slide on the SG and it's much cleaner and confident sounding than a regular acoustic-electric. It's the electronics that nail it.

LOL....So that's how LUNA does it! I want to take your paint by wood class. Is on DVD?

What's that heavy metal music? I like it. Porthole Truss Rod Access Hatch?/Belly Button Lint collector? I like it.

great cover. I will forever be sad this project never went anywhere really, had such potential.

Five big mac and cheese. And fries on the side. To go

Big wrench is for truss rod

Great review. What action did you have finalise on at the 12th Fret ?

Your ethics need readjusted. I presently would not want to do business with you. A pleasant dislike for your sham.

It sounds very thin in all demos on youtube.

Nice review! You can get the guitar much cheaper than your quote. The guitar stays in tune pretty well. I mainly play slide. I plug this guitar into my pedals and amp and play it like my normal Strat, but only when I'm travelling. I installed strap locks; one next to the lead jack. I disliked using the hex wrench for the dismantling and installing of the metal body shapes each time I travelled, so I drilled right through the holes and body and put in brass bolts so that I can use a normal screw driver. It looks fine: like it came like that. Also I didn't like the way the tuner sat on the end of the neck so I made a split dowel to fit top and bottom. Now the tuner sits snugly instead of wobbling. I've got photos and could post them if you tell me how!

Damn bro, tune that

Miles... I agree with your analysis completely. I got one of these as a gift a few months ago for travelling when using airplanes. I was surprised at the quality out of the box as well. Like you, I adjusted the action and I was good to go. I'm thinking about using it on stage as well. I subscribed to your channel... Keep up the great work! A new fan! Love to hear more of the luthier comments. I have been playing for over 50 years now and am always learning new ideas about guitars and other string instruments from luthiers. Might have been a profession for myself in another life. Thanks Miles!

so this guitar can only be played when the battery is inserted?. means that this guitar will not work without a battery even i plug into amplifier? sorry for my broken english

Thanks for playing it without an amplifier. I feel most other UA-camrs were paid by Donner to review this guitar to shill. Great review! Thanks again!

Thanks for the video. Can you tell me how to turn off the guitar? The vulume nob is not designed to turn off the guitar, right? Thanks.

THIS THING IS A CHEAP PLASTIC COPY AND DOESN'T EVEN SLIDE STRAIGHT. L.O.L.

I couldn’t watch your video for more than 90 seconds! That stupid background noise!! Wtf a dog or car bell?!!!

How quiet is it to others if headphones are plugged into the guitar? Trying to get a silent guitar that I can play on while my family is sleeping.

Nice review… subbed! Show the kittie…needs some screen time!

My sons surprised me with one of these guitars for father’s Day. I have a feeling that it has stainless steel frets as they are not magnetic. Would anyone happen to know for sure about this. Also there are no sharp ends on the frets as they have allowed for the wood to shrink as the frets do not completely go to the edge of the fretboard as there is a very slight gap. thank you for a very interesting and informative video and I did not hesitate in subscribing to your wonderful channel

Don't know if you still have the amp, but I had a similar problem with a used Yamaha DG amplifier. Since the repair of the actual amp was not cost effective, I chucked the amplifier chassis and used the Cabinet and speaker as an extension cabinet. At least that way, I was able to salvage some of my initial investment. Now that cabinets are so expensive and little amps are so inexpensive, it might be worth considering...

I have had an AMPLIFi 75 for years, and I have never had any issues.

Is it really good for classical guitar neck

Thank you. A pair of those are now on their way to me 😍👍👍🎶😍

Thanks for the review, probably one of the most balanced and thorough guitar reviews I’ve seen - thank you! I’m looking for a ‘silent’ guitar to play whilst away caravanning with my wife, so that I never need to annoy the neighbours or interfere with my wife watching a film. One concern for me is that caravans and cars see wild swings in both temperature and humidity from the heat of a UK summers day to the cool of the evening, rainy days and bone dry ones. How vulnerable would such a guitar be to these variations in your view? The only carbon fibre travel guitars I can find are neither silent nor compact, so I may have a tough choice to make here.

1 year 150 bucks.- I am looking at line 6 stuff on the cheap and the amplifi /spider 5 was looking like an option but after looking deeper the software just is not supported or has disappeared in many of the products - I am ok if the amp dies electrically but the fact that you lose all the functionality that made the thing interesting in the first place because the software no longer exists is a major no no. I honestly think your amp falls in the better off buying a replacement situation as any repair on anything would cost you $150 at least - even if it could be repaired and it is probably so complicated that you need to be a trained technician to fix. If it is anything like a tv/monitor /stereo the capicitors can fail (even after 4 years) and they are easy enough/cheap to spot visually and solder. The fact that you are getting sound from stereo module and it then fails at higher volume may be due to a capicitor that can't handle the load anymore- the fact there is no guitar being pushed out could be from fuse or even burn't out capicitor. Honestly if it is more complicated like faulty chips and other elements it would be too expensive/complicated to track, diagnose or source replacements. Line 6 have had some fantastic products but they just drop off the radar and become obsolete due to software/no support which is a shame because they really have things that I find very appealing - in one way you are kind of lucky as your amp died a natural death rather than shutting you out via the app.

Miles, you are misrepresenting the Glider Capo. The link that you have posted is for the original American-made product. The reviewed product is not the Glider Capo. It is a hard plastic copy and not the same product as the original Glider. This foreign-made unit is an inferior product that will damage your guitar. It may be the reason why it didn't function very well for you.

Great review, thank you.

Gtr is not equipped blu tooth? ......kinda crappy sounding but would be cool with a rechargeable battery and blu tooth for busking , parties , etc

Please try nylon strings. I would be very interested,

What would you think about gigging with this as it is?

I totally kept looking around, trying to see who let the cat in my dang house!! It sounded like it was coming out my dang chimney! Then I realized it's on the video... 😁😁. But honestly, thanks for the informative video. Was the action hard to correct? Something a novice can fix? BTW, the cat is damn adorable! This was one of the most informative videos I've ever had the pleasure of watching.

The white chord in the background made me think that I had a crack in my phone screen

I really enjoyed your review. Cat is so cute too. One drawback of the neck is it's a sharp point on the back. If youre a constant barre chord player your thumb has to press pretty hard on what feels to me like a pretty sharp point. I'm on the acoustic so the tension is higher but do you find the same on the silent Donner? (generally I find the neck comfy other than that)

If money was no concern, would this or the Yamaha be easier for a beginner to learn on?

YOUR FRIEND LOOKS LIKEHE/SHE WANTS TO PLAY SOME GUITAR.

Metal tone?

You need to lessons you don’t need a guitar and really get rid of the cats and talk less

Amplifi unfortunately was a pretty garbage line... Probably the worst they ever did. That stuff came and went faster than a current iphone model. But I've had a lot of their stuff for YEARS and gigged with the stuff, and I've never had any issues. The amplifi is one that I didn't ever get. But that sort of customer service is the same with any large electronics corporation like that. They're not going to sit there and help you diagnose and fix the thing. That's never going to happen anywhere. You can forget about that anymore. They will just tell you to send it in. I've experienced that with a lot of different companies. Line 6... AKA Yamaha, is no different.
