Chords for Toy Guitar... Does It Actually Work?

Hey, I'm Stevie T and I was at the dollar store the other day and I saw
_ _ this a
guitar for a dollar a dollar
It's absolutely perfect for those musicians who are on a budget.
I mean, that's a sick paint job
Yeah, but there's only one question that remains does it work?
We're gonna find out today.
So let's bust her open and we'll see how she sounds _ _
Huh, and would you know it it comes with its own complimentary case, no, it doesn't know that doesn't work _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ [N] _ _ _ _
_ _ All right, let's see here _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
Tastes like plastic looks like plastic.
This thing is cheaply made.
It's like come on.
I paid a dollar I expect quality _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ Would you look at that?
Yeah, you got little tuning pegs
_ _ _ [G] _ _ _ Okay, I got my clip-on [N] tuner.
Let's get her in tune _ _ _
_ Where are you supposed to put this? _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _
The thing sucks
_ So test number one, can you tune it?
Not really? _ _ _
Well, _ _ _ let's see if it tunes down we'll give it the breakdown test. _ _ _ _
_ _ Oh
Yeah, how's that for a low tuning brown note?
_ _ So I know you're all wondering does it Jen?
[D#] _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ [F] _
It kind of does Jen.
Let's give it the breakdown test
Hmm _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ [B] _ All right, so I don't even know if you could hear the guitar from there
But it did kind of form something that could be considered a note _ _ _ _
_ _ Let's do [F#] a quick game of name that riff
_ _ _ _ _ _ [N] _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ Can you guess it?
That's correct a barely recognizable version of Thunderstruck.
Try this one _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ Can you guess that one?
That's right.
White Stripes seven nation army.
Okay, one more song, but this time I need a capo _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ Today is gonna be the day that they're gonna throw it back to you
[F#] Did you guess it?
_ _ That's right.
Wonderwall.
How the heck did you guess that not a single note?
There was coherent _
_ _ _ _ [G] Right, so let's try a couple different techniques to see if it works.
Let's see if we can tap _ _
_ _ [E] _ _ _ _ [Gm] _ _
[G] _ _ _ [N] _ _ _ _ _
_ Okay, so does it tap? _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ Let's see if we can sweep pick _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ This neck is so friggin warped.
It's unbelievable. _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ I don't work very well _ _
_ _ for string sweeps _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ Screw it.
Let's just do some mindless shredding _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ That's next to impossible to shred on this thing.
The frets are almost unusable, especially at speeds like that _ _ _ _ _
_ Let's see if we can do slide guitar with it put that in the guitar stand for a sec. _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ All right, let's test this out _ _ _ _ _ _
Wow, that was unexpected.
It actually works _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _
Okay, so it's time to put the guitar strap on to see if we can rock out with this thing
And you better not have laughed when I said strap on we are mature adults here
Let me get my strap guitar stand
_ _ All right. _
_ Oh
_ All right _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ What they didn't even give you strap pegs.
Oh
Come on dollar store.
How are you supposed to rock out?
Well, I do have a solution
tape _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _
This is
_ _ _ _ Ridiculous
_ Well, ain't I a rock star _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ My strap was more expensive than my guitar.
I _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ wonder if we can do a guitar flip. _
_ [B] _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ Yeah, there it is
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ [D#] _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ Okay, and as promised if the guitar was at least playable I promised I would do a song and I did that's right
I recorded the song for you guys, and I had so much fun recording this song for you.
No, no
No, I didn't it was a royal pain in the left nut actually _ _
_ How are you supposed to plug this in to record there's no input jack there's no input jack.
Oh my god, I'll make one
No, no, no, no, I don't know.
I'll record it by microphone then screw it.
God.
It's so quiet
I gotta get right up to the mic like _
Fine I'll just thrust into you
_ No, oh you're out of tune
No that that fret sounds different now.
What the heck?
No
_ _ It looks like I'm using a _ urinal
out of tune again
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ [G#] _
_ _ _ _ Yeah _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _
Okay, I'm gonna go to the dollar store and buy a new guitar and then we'll resume _ excuse me _ _
_ Well, _ _ _ _ _
_ _ [F] _ _ [C#m] _ _ _ _
[D] _ _ _ [C#] _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ [G#] _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ [E] _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ [A] _ _ [G#] _ _ [C#m] _ _ _
_ _ [G#] _ _ [C#m] _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ [C#m] _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ [N] _
_ _ _ there you have it folks I hope you like my little diddy
I was hoping to make it a little bit longer
But I was ready to pull out my freaking hair cuz this guitar sucks
It can't record the frets are this freaking tiny and the streets on like
Mmm
_ _ So _ _ moral of the story is dollar store guitars are barely playable
So what I recommend this as a toy for a kid who just likes guitar
_ No, no, not at all.
Actually
_ These things suck
