I always love an off camera “YEA!!!” I appreciate the level of excitement in the room is the same for those that are watching.

[markharris]

This is some insane skill. This series is more like "Electric guitar personalities explained by an unleashed acoustic player"

[honeyyeti]

You definitely need to get Ben doing more electric guitar reviews…his playing brings something completely different to it..awesome playing

[ljmiller]

Terrific playing from Ben. In particular you made beautiful and stunning noises with the Heritage and Sire guitars. I've been considering a Carlton model for a while and this may be enough to tip me into buy mode.

[jamiebritton]

Ben and Peet should have a telecaster jam off. Would love to hear that

[Nostaljack]

The playing in this video. My goodness. This is the only thing that matters about this video. Wow...

[graemero]

Ben is a great player and I love watching him play electric guitar.

[jamesmoffatt]

You had that Heritage singin' real sweetly, Ben. Great finger picking riff..! I liked the Gretch double cut next. AC/DC vibes....
I presently have an Epi DR 400 MCE Masterbuilt dreadnaught, which compliments my Epi Studio, Epi Special(TV Yellow), & Greco HSS strat.
Keep up the Monday mornin' acoustic videos...love them!!

[adamharvey]

Ben you are kick asson the electric 👏 I enjoy you playing no matter what guitar you use

[johnpinnock]

I have a LP, Gretsch and a Casino, so happy to have covered those 2 acoustics, electric wise! Ben your playing is just another level .. Top drawer 🎶🎸🎶❤

[WhatsUpWhitey]

I have a D-28 style guitar and have a Duo Jet. Just as you picked. Interesting how these things work out naturally.

[chrisggoodwin]

as much as I like seeing Ben on the Anderton's channel, he needs to move to Nashville 😉

[dennismullins]

Ben should give Nashville a go. He’s got the chops ☮️

[paulcopsey]

I found the easier, most familiar 1st step from accoustic into the electric world was a Casino. Easy transition in feel & sound. Great P90s, lots of tones in the 2 pickups & knobs. It also help you appreciate how to tame feedback. From there, next easy progression Les Paul's & 335s. Never felt comfortable with Teles or Strats, tried, just couldn't get comfy in feel or sound, hence traded in for more Les Pauls & 335s.

[limpindug]

Top video Ben as usual bud, no argument here as to your choices, to me spot on. 👍👍👍🥃Respect to you mate.

[nedludd]

This guy's good - if he's like that playing guitar, what on Earth is he like whilst in the deep throes of love? They appear to have sold out of the Sire guitar. I wonder if his demo convinced a load of folk to suddenly buy one? Great stuff.

[davedavem]

I'm starting to love Mondays because of Acoustic Paradiso!

[RubbelisPro]

It's so true, I transitioned from learning on an acoustic in high school to buying my first telecaster and it was almost seamless, albeit a little harder to gauge how much bite is too much when playing straight into an amp, but the attack and how notes rang out was something I felt like I understood a bit better at that point.

[bastianb]

Great video! I am waiting for the same thing vice versa. Best acoustic guitars for electric players. Maybe with some acoustics where you can access higher frets (20-21)

[lukesteverything]

The problem as I see it is for people who play 45mm nut acoustics such as Furch / Faith. I know a couple of Guitar makers who will custom make a 45mm nut electric but off the shelf is hard to find. Nice vid though!
