Guys today's video is going to be very exciting and different Because you get to see regular guitars on this channel You have seen travel size guitars, medium size guitars and even dreadnought size guitars But today I have a very compact size guitar I have never reviewed this type of thing on this channel You can see the box It appears that this has a portable keyboard in it But this has a proper guitar with full scale length Today I will talk about Donner HUSH-I silent guitar This is happening
for the first time on this channel That I am reviewing a silent guitar Let's unbox this quickly and see how is the overall guitar Let's open the box You get to see this type of packaging Here you can see a gig bag and some accessories also I think this has earphones in it. Besides there is a strap, a tuner and this bag Bag is looking very good and you can see that it is very compact The bag is almost 2.5ft long and it is very compact, I am really surprised It is appearing as if someone has only
sent the fretboard of the guitar But in actual fact you will get to see a proper guitar in this bag Let's open this This is looking really nice, I have never tried this type of thing before This is looking very amazing and the finish is very good This is the sunburst colour We will talk about its colour options in detail But this sunburst colour is my favourite finish in this HUSH-I model You can see that this is a headless guitar And this is very light weight This has a small body and the pream
p is also fitted in this You get a very good pickup I will talk about that later in this video And the tuning keys are at the back of the body because this is a headless guitar And this is the first headless acoustic guitar that I have seen Because usually you will see headless guitar options in electric guitars only Although this is very small But this comes with two frames that gives a proper feel of holding a guitar In a way it forms the shape of a guitar when attached to this body Let's tak
e those out and have a look There are some things here also, Besides this let's what's more inside this bag. This bag also has a secret pocket at the bottom This will be attached on one side and I think the other frame is in this pouch Here we have the second part When we attach these two parts it will create a frame that feels like a proper guitar. Here we get some basic stuff One allen key, some picks and some screws Do follow the time stamps Because we are getting some interesting accessories
free with this guitar I will talk about them in detail, You can see the particular time stamp stating free accessories You will get all the details regarding these accessories Now let's fit this frame quickly in this guitar It is very easy to fit frame in this guitar The small part will fit at the bottom and bigger one will fit at the top And an allen key is provided with this And we have this small packet in the bag It has some things in it Here we have some guitar picks, some screws and some
rubber caps I will tell you how to use these Firstly let's take two screws First let's attach the small frame You don't have to do anything here, Just align the frame here in this drilled hole And then you have to tighten the screw Similarly this big frame will go at the top Where we have the pickup controls You have to fit it like this And here you will get a space to tighten the screw You can see that this frame is installed very conveniently You will get these types of rubber plugs also with
this guitar Which you have to fit on the edges of the frame With these rubber caps overall you will get better comfort When you hold this guitar So this way you can put the rubber plugs on the edges It is very easy to fix the frame and it will hardly take five minutes Now let's talk about the specifications Before starting the specifications I want to show you one more colour I also have a natural colour You get two options in Donner HUSH-I One is the option of all mahogany body Besides this you
get an option of maple body Like I said all mahogany because this neck is basically a neck through design The neck is joining the body You will get this either in full mahogany or in maple And currently in India you get to see this in mahogany natural finish Besides this you get to see in mahogany sunburst finish And the black colour in this is all maple Basically you can go with the all black variant if you want maple wood Like I have told that this is a neck through design I got to see this t
hing in the natural finish Basically this is constructed from three pieces of wood I will show a close up shot in which you will get to see this difference This full piece of wood is single which is going from neck till the end And then two different woods are joined in this body I found this thing very interesting Because usually you get a glued neck in acoustic guitars Nowadays there are some guitars in which you get a bolt on neck But I have not seen a neck through design in an acoustic guita
rs Besides this you get an asymmetrical neck If you see from the nut side where we usually have the headstock Then you can see the design The neck is little more rounded at the bass strings side And as you go towards the treble strings, the neck is getting flatter Overall you get a very comfortable neck for playing And this type of neck profile I haven't seen in any acoustic guitar Besides this let's talk about the fretboard You get a HPL fretboard HPL is a very durable material, it is a weather
resistant material So the neck of the guitar will not bend very easily And you will be able to maintain this guitar very easily Now let's talk about the frets In this guitar you get total 20 frets and these frets have rounded edges Overall you will get a very good playing experience from this guitar Besides this, these are very high polished frets Right out of the box you get a very premium look and feel And playing wise these frets are very smooth And like I said that you are getting 20 frets
and there is a benefit in this guitar Since it is designed in way that this a neck through Plus this is a slim profile guitar You can access till the last fret very easily You can easily play on the last fret from the sixth string to the first string Let's move further Here it has a cover with Donner logo. So basically this is a truss rod cover In this guitar you get a truss rod Besides this let's talk about nut and saddle You get to a bone nut and saddle in this guitar Besides this the bridge o
f this guitar is also made up of HPL Let's talk about the tuning keys You get to see a very different kind of tuning keys These are not those usual tuning keys which you see in an acoustic or electric guitar Here we have rounded tuning keys Basically these are used because this is a headless guitar Here the system of putting strings is totally opposite The strings are not going from the bridge towards the nut, Since this is a headless guitar So the string passes through the nut You can see the s
lots here From here the string is inserted and then passes through the bridge and behind the bridge you can see the machine heads and tuning keys The strings are attached here Overall these tuning keys are of good quality On the back you can see these are open gear tuning keys Overall the tuning keys are of premium quality Since the machine heads are at the back of the bridge so strings won't prick while playing But if you operate these tuning keys with hands Then they will not operate that prec
isely So an allen key is present in the body of the guitar You get one allen key separately and one allen key you can put in the body of this guitar It stays here permanently You can take it out and tune the guitar very easily Initially you might feel that you have to adjust the tuning keys or tune the guitar from the allen key But the biggest plus point in this guitar is That these tuning keys are very stable After tuning the guitar once, you don't need to tune the guitar again I really liked t
his thing that you check the tuning in middle of playing guitar And the guitar usually stays in tune, may be very slight shift in the pitch But usually the guitar stays very stable tuning wise When I had done the sound check of this guitar Then I was constantly checking in between whether the guitar is in tune or not I had tuned this guitar before the sound check only And after that there was no need of tuning the guitar Besides this the input jack of the guitar is at the bottom And this input j
ack acts as a strap button You can attach the strap easily on this Now let's talk about the electronics The pickup in this guitar is the heart of this guitar Everything is dependent on this pickup only When you plug in this guitar then overall you get a good tone And this pickup doesn't disappoint Overall you get to hear a good tone The layout of this pickup is very basic You get a volume knob, a two band equaliser and a phase button Besides this the interesting thing which you will not in any a
coustic guitar or electric guitar And this feature makes it very special and it is this headphone input option And besides this it has an option of AUX Basically because this is a silent guitar If you want to practice in the house without disturbing the family members Whether you want to jam or practice with any song Then you can connect the earphones that you get free with this guitar Or you can connect headphones in this guitar Besides this you have an AUX cable so you can connect your phone B
asically you can practice guitar along the song in the headphones only If you are playing any backing track and are soloing or improvising along the track Then you can do that without disturbing anyone So first I connected Donner earphones And I was very surprised because overall you get a very good sound And the sound isn't very harsh or distorted Because I usually don't recommend earphones if you are practicing the guitar Specially in the amplifier you must use headphones Earphones are not goo
d But the earphones with this guitar are very balanced And are designed as per this guitar so that you can practice the guitar easily The earphone volume is controlled by the volume knob in the pickup And if you are connecting your mobile through the AUX option Then you can control the volume of the song/track from your phone And you can make a good balanced mix for practice or playing I liked this thing because usually we don't get this type of feature in any guitar And many people ask me that
can we connect headphones directly in an acoustic or electric guitar It doesn't work like that, You need to have a headphone amplifier for that But here this pickup sort of a built in amplifier You can do all the things in this pickup only You can play by plugging in the amp You can jam in the headphones or earphones Let's do the sound check and hear the tone of this pickup It is very interesting, you can do so many things with this guitar I had used a heavy metal patch You can use a crunch or o
verdrive patch But here my main purpose was this only That you can use this guitar for clean tones and also for overdrive tones to a certain extent This pickup is powered by a 9v battery And you get a battery backup of 50 hours if you are playing the guitar through earphones or headphones And if you are playing through the amplifier then you get 30 hours battery backup Now let's talk about the free accessories Here you get a very good padded gig bag In this you get some pockets in which you can
carry your essential accessories Besides this you get earphones also and they come in a very good case The overall quality of the earphones was very good Besides this you get an extra pair of ear buds and a wire clip For attaching the earphones Besides this, you get a very good tuner and a cleaning cloth with this guitar Besides this you get three picks of very good quality and spare screws And you also get a good quality strap This strap is very interesting and useful Because you can use this s
trap for this bag as well as for this guitar You can attach the strap very easily on this bag You will be able to use it in this way for the bag This becomes a single sling style bag which you can carry this way Or if you want to carry your guitar like this in a style And you can attach this strap on the guitar as well If you want to play live or play casually then you can do that I found this strap very useful You can carry the bag or play the guitar while standing from the same strap only Let'
s talk about the price Currently you will get Donner HUSH-I for around ₹26,000 And you can get an additional discount on this You will get the best buy link and discount code in the description I told you the specifications, showed the free accessories also And I have also shown how's the overall tone of this guitar Now let's talk about the pros and cons Firstly let's start with the pros This is a light weight compact guitar and very travel friendly You can carry this guitar very easily You can
carry this guitar very conveniently in it's bag With the full frame of this guitar, some basic accessories you can travel and you will not face any problem Besides this the second positive point is That you get a very comfortable neck And because this is a neck through design so the upper fret access is very good Besides this because this is a headless guitar so tuning keys comes in the body only String goes through the nut and it fits in the tuning keys behind the bridge You won't have to take
any tension regarding the bridge coming off Besides this the tuning keys are of very good quality And the guitar doesn't goes out of tune very quickly The biggest positive point is the pickup of this guitar which is very good You get to hear a very good piezo tone Besides this you can use this as an electric guitar also to a certain extent And you can jam easily by inserting the headphones/earphones in this pickup This is a very good feature in this guitar These were the pros now let's talk a
bout the cons As such this guitar doesn't have so many cons It depends on your preference, some people likes their regular guitar While some people likes headless guitar Those who don't like headless guitar they might not like this guitar Besides this the main con was that although the tuning keys are of very good quality and are very stable But if you want to tune then it will tune very precisely with the allen key But you can't tune very precisely with the hand But because the tuning keys are
of very good quality The guitar doesn't goes out of tune very quickly Besides this the second con is your preference If you are a person who packs the guitar in the bag every time after playing Then you will have to take out this frame everytime And if you play regularly at home and keep your guitar out of the bag Then you will not face any problem You can keep the frame intact Overall the features that you are getting in the price range of ₹26,000 And since this guitar has a very different con
cept so it is very value for money You don't get to see many options of silent guitar in India The only option of silent guitar that you used to see before this was in Yamaha only Currently you get to the Yamaha silent guitar in price range of above ₹50,000 The Yamaha silent guitar is definitely good But everyone doesn't have a budget of spending ₹ 50,000 that too on a silent guitar This guitar is a really good and affordable alternate of a Yamaha silent guitar Those who don't have a budget of ₹
50,000 Someone who wants a good and efficient silent guitar in less price range This is a very good option for them Rest you tell me how did you find this guitar Besides this if anyone of you have purchased this guitar Then definitely give your feedback, The guitar community gets a lot of help If you liked today's video then hit the like button and share the video Besides this definitely subscribe the channel if you have not done till now Along with that click on that bell icon also You can foll
