I got an interesting email from the people at Fesley. They actually asked my opinion on some new models they're coming out with. This almost never happens to me and it's something I've talked bout before. Why do more companies not simply ask the opinions of those people who their guitars are meant to please before they make the mistake of building stuff no one will buy? To their credit, Fesley did what no American company has ever done, at least not with me. Check this out...

The studio-captured audio is not added yet. This is just a rough video mix with the RAW camera guide audio for the drums and guitar ONLY! So this is what the drums and rhythm guitar are sounding like in the room by themselves with no close miking and no post processing (other than a bit of compression and EQ). I am actually kind of shocked how good this is sounding even though one of the camera mics (the one for the drums) is from a DJI Action Cam and the other (for the guitar) is a Panasonic camcorder mic.
