heh, imho, the clip prolly has more to do with the person playing the guitar then any other thing else...
doesn't that apply to everything else.
Dude, I gotta say this... Lancefury was not being "attacked" by Whitestrat.
To all arguements there's 2 sides of a coin, to all opinions there's 2 sides to it too...
Lancefury presented his impressions of the guitar and Whitestrat saw it fit to comment upon it and present his own opinions.
If you read Whitestrat's posts, I think he is the Ying to Lacefury's Yang. He provided the balanced Point of View to what I personally felt was... well... could pretty much be a lot of hype.

Wait.. Timbre is Singaporean?

Yupz.. Timbre is an emerging guitar maker in Singapore who based their operations in PRC, hence, its Singapore designed (as they claim and their HQ is in SG), but the guitars are Made in China.
And yes, to what ShredCow says, there is always 2 sides to a coin. A review/opinion from me would be balanced by what WhiteStrat says, so in this case to people considering to buy a Swing guitar, would have read both perspectives and come to a conclusion/decision for themselves.
And yes, there is the possibility of being overhyped somewhat, but my suggestion is to try out, play it, and then comment on the guitar after playing it. Without playing it, how can one critique the Swing Prism based on a photo? This would do more justice to the guitar as its hard to tell the quality or workmanship of the guitar without personally experiencing and verifying it. Jazzit_man would actually have the most time to try it out since he owns it now, so his review (if he writes one) would count for something.

heh, i was just trying to be polite, without going the extend of saying
'what! you trust clips? Do you know how easy it is to manipulate the playing and way of showcasing it to attract the person listening into thinking that the gear is the universe, not the other way round!"
i am a polite person, or at least try my best to, even though i know i aint perfect

I wish Timbre would have their own designs instead of copy fenders tho...
And I wish they'd have a website!

When Timbre becomes more established you'd probably want to keep the Timbre logo there...

The Swing Prism SE is great!!!I just bought one from SV guitars in Peninsula...I always go for brand names thinking of the resale value... but i thought why bying something and thinking of selling it? I own and have owned high end guitars but this one is not far from the rest...I never thought of a guitar of it's price range that would sound like this..not to mention the playability! Better try them for yourselves and know what i'm talkin about!
