I’ve just bought this week a brand new THV30DCE after I saw a youtube video talking about “Smart guitars”.
I’m really happy to have made this purchase !
The acoustic sound (without effects) is awesome and, the electronic effects are rendered with impressive quality.
My favorite effect by now is the Looper which allows to play like if I was in a band , without carrying any extra pedals, amp, or extra effects.
New features and fixes are regulary provided with new guitar firmwares (easy to install) , and I hope that new spectacular effects will be soon released
I wanted a guitar that I can bring anywhere wihtout carring all extra equipment foe effects , amp. and here it is !

I have had this guitar for 3 weeks and can’t put it down. First the quality matches my Taylor 714ce and feels even better. The sound just by itself is worth every penny. Add the HyVibe and it’s a whole new ballgame. Played at a gathering with other guitarist last week end and this guitar stole the show. Three people bought one online right in front of me. Can’t wait to see what’s next from LAG and the HyVibe system.

You’ve never seen anything as advanced or flexible as the HyVibe system.HyVibe: WOW! Startup is quick, 1, maybe 2 seconds. Tuner works fine, perfectly usable. Effects sound very nice. This is no cheap gimmick, you can use the effects to create some seriously nice sounds and the fact, that the sound is still amplified by the wood of the guitar makes it sound and feel quite special. Hyvibe adds huge fun factor and actually works! (and it works great)

Amazing, i think this is what we all dreamed of without knowing it. Just Perfect?
Kurt –
Have it 15hrs (night was very short it didn’t let me sleep much 🙂 ), this guitar is from another star!
It gives so much “JOY” playing this guitar. Fast neck, very very comfortable!
Thanks Matt and your Team G8 Job well done!
Jon Anderson MD (only cuz i’m NOT THE Jon Anderson, who’s a Brit ;)) –
Am very impressed with Justin Johnson’s presentation !! Now i can leave my 30 lb amp at home! .. and have even more fun! (show me the normal amp that loops ! )
Juan Escobar –
So there I was, clicking through YouTube when I saw Justin Johnson demoing the HyVibe guitar. I was totally blown away by it’s capabilities. What finally sold me was the loop function. I already have five guitars, but I had to have this one, too. Ordered it online, and it came in about a week, maybe less. I gotta say, this thing surpassed all my expectations. It has a better action than my Martin D1, the fit and finish is beautiful and flawless, the sound is sublime, and the effects just push it over the top.
How could I not mention the price? I went for their top of the line model at $1,500. This price included shipping (from France) taxes, and a totally legit hard shell case. More than reasonable.
I am not a tech dude, at all. I emailed the company and the COO, Matt, got right back to me via email. We set up a time to chat over the phone and he very patiently and skillfully guided me through the process. Thanks again, Matt.
We live in a world saturated in bullshit and all kinds of heinous fuckery. Dealing with this company was a very refreshing change from all of that. They are the real deal. Cannot recommend this guitar enough.
So there ya go . . .
Have a great holiday season and a happy and prosperous New Year. ?

Considering all the chaos of 2020 I was pleasantly surprised by my virtual interaction with HyVibe and COO Matt. I sent a message and received a response and all the help needed to make my purchase! His product is so special and marries technology with a high performance guitar! Brilliant! Great customer service

I am really enjoying my new “smart” guitar!! I love the woodwork and it sounds amazing!! I had been looking for a steel string and this one is that and much more! I haven’t used all the features yet, but I love the ones I have tried. Tuner and metronome onboard is wonderful! And using the speaker to play along with the band is really helping me with my playing 😀
And the customer service has been amazing!! I have had problems and Matt has called me and walked me through each one.
Rick Lynch –
I purchased the THV30DCE and what an enjoyable guitar! I made the purchase after watching Darrell Braun’s youtube review.
It was so easy and intuitive to learn the features and the phone app. Delivery was EXCELLENT and customer service response to a couple of questions was so fast – what a great experience!
If you’re on the fence deciding whether to order one of these guitars or not – JUST DO IT! You’ll be glad you did!
Eric Jordan –
I purchased THV30DCE and got it just before Christmas. To start with, this is a beautiful guitar. She has a wonderful action, and great acoustic sound.
When turned on, the HyVibe system really makes her come alive! I’ve been adding reverb for my live playing and she sounds so rich!
I haven’t explored all the features or effects yet, but I am sure liking what I have tried this far.

Hyvibe THV30 DCE
What a great guitar really well made and the built in effects / Looper make it a very versatile guitar
To be honest I was sceptical and did think it was a bit of a gimmick but wow this is a serious piece of kit and the ability just to pick it up without having to connect to amp or pedals is great
The App is really intuitive love how you can assign the slider on the guitar to a parameter drag and change the order of the effects in the chain etc
I actually plug it into a modelling amp yeah it sort of defeats the purpose of the intended use but it sounds fantastic
It’s a nice guitar well made and balanced! Nice Mid’s Nice High’s and not to heavy on the lows without doubt competes with the well known high end brands for sure
My only gripe would be I feel a little anxious when I put it on charge and rest it on my guitar stand just got a feeling the charger plug will get snapped off at some point shame it wasn’t in a more convenient location but I understand it makes sense to combine it all in one unit
Nice Work Lag/HyVibe I think you might be on a winner
Bonnie Tuller –
I got this for my husband for Christmas and it’s absolutely amazing! I can not recommend it enough! It is a show stopper, conversation starter! It’s got a great sound and I love seeing my husband smile when he plays it! If you are thinking about getting one of these, JUST DO IT! You won’t be sorry! And the customer service of the people here are truly amazing! I’ve had questions here and there and Matt always gets back to me super fast! Thank you for making such an incredible guitar that not only looks great but sounds great!
Joseph Bennett –
Not as pictured but still a nice guitar.
Ordered the top of the line as they had but if I had it to do over again I would have ordered the THV20DCE. I like the look of the 30 pictured on the website better than the 20 so I ordered it but when it came in it looked nothing like the picture. In fact it looks closer to the 20 picture with a solid back so that is one star off. The electronics are top notch other than one problem and that is the bluetooth contivity. EVERY time you start up the guitar you have to re pair it with the app to edit any settings and if you want to play backup track you have to disconnect it in the app and reconnect it in the system bluetooth menu. All that said I do like this guitar and will play it more than most of my others but if I had it to do over again I would have ordered the 20 as it looks IDENTICAL to the pictureed THV20DCE
Michael Smith –
Was excellent doing business with Hyvibe. The transaction was smooth and they shipped the product immediately. I am extremely happy with the guitar. The finish is beautiful and the Hyvibe system adds a whole new level of fun to playing. My kids were super excited about it as well and wanted to get a family music time going.
Armen Abrami –
I gave a lot of thought before buying this guitar. But after some research I decided to follow my gut feeling and ordered the 30DCE.
I don’t regret it for one second. This guitar is off the charts fun to play!

My THV30DCE arrived a couple of weeks ago, and I still consider it one of my best-ever guitar purchases! It’s a beautiful instrument, and when after you figure out the app and blue-tooth connections, it’s clear that a lot of thought went into the electronics and the user interface. As others have said, customer service is great, starting with the time you place order. One thing that I had not expected was the beautiful bear claw top on the instrument I received. The guitar looks beautiful, sounds amazing, and is so much fun to play!
John Monti –
Love this Guitar! The sound is remarkable both wet and dry. This has quickly become my favorite mobile instrument. It was easy to learn the software and quickly began to affect my vibe and creativity positively. It was delivered with an error in the firmware and Matt called me from France and worked with me directly until it was reinstalled and operating properly. Great companies have great customer service . So glad I took a chance on your product without previous exposure. Monti, Reno. NV
Pat B –
Ive had my HyVibe for about 2 years now. I absolutely love it!! I had a problem with the battery totally dieing. I emailed the company and Matt got back to me the next day. He sent me a new battery and within a week I received it and was playing in no time. Excellent guitar and excellent customer service. Every songwriter needs one of these guitars!!
Tom Smith –
So, have been playing a few months with my Hyvibe, and can not stress how great a joy it is to play. After 50+ years of playing, a lot of my friends are now gone, but I can loop and recall great times. The effects are amazing. Quality, service, and support are stellar.
This guitar has supplanted both my Martin and Gibson as my go to instrument.
If you haven’t already, get one and play one. You will not regret your choice!
Joseph Johnson –
Hyvibe has it dialed in.
In June I ordered the THV30DCE, the process was smooth at every step, with one exception, the delivery driver delivered the guitar to my neighbor two doors down. I spent a few hours haired out knowing the shipper posted “Delivered”, and it wasn’t on my doorstep. Fortunately the neighbor is honest and came over to let me know ..
I was so stoked with the Hyvibe I ordered the THV20DCE for my son’s birthday, would have purchased the cut away model for him but it was not available last June, but he was stoked with it.
Recently I purchased the do it yourself kit and converted a Martin D-1 R to a Hyvibe system. It actually sounds better than the THV30DCE, as it is a very well made guitar to start and the Hyvibe system lights it up !
That makes three purchases from Hyvibe that all went perfectly and all three guitars are freakin awesome, I’m playing alot more lately.
Joe Vitale –
LOVE it! Didn’t know I would love it so much. Playing it without any effects, as a regular guitar, is gorgeous. Sweet and loud. But turn on the effects and stand back. This is a Harry Potter experience. The sounds coming from inside the guitar make everyone look and wonder and smile. I love this guitar so much I may order a second one just to have in multiple places. A truly impressive instrument!
Sergei –
Luxury case. Feels great just to hold.
A killer guitar even without effects.
Effects and other features are amazing.
Easy to navigate software.
Looper is addictive and non stop fun.
Personalized customer service. Thank you, Matt!
All in all it’s more to it than Initially expected.
David –
HyVibe not only provides incredible instruments (mixing technology with authentic sound) but their customer support is simply amazing : personalised and efficient. I felt important to them and this is simply great. Thanks to the HyVibe Team. You deserve a HighFive !
Ani –
I’ve had my HyVibe THV30DCE since the beginning of 2021. It has become my go-to guitar. Beautiful sound, even without the smart features.
But the features of course take it to a whole new level. Every time I use it, people always inquire about it because they are so impressed.
And as others have already well expressed, the customer support is beyond the best !!! Cannot recommend more !!!

Hyvibe THV30DCE is amazing! Even without the innovative electronics the guitar itself is a work of art and a joy to play. Beautiful tone, low action and super in tune! The effects are icing on the cake especially the looper. The most fun I have had with an acoustic guitar- keep up the good work!!
Luca –
Really amazing stuff.
You can get lost with all the posibilites of the custom effect settings and the looper is really fun.
The case is really great also.
Waiting for the pedal so I can play around with the looper more easily (and hoping for some multi-track support on the looper in the future)
but so far I’m sold 🙂
DaBinChe –
Wow what a wonderful guitar! Saw Justine Johnson play it and it sounded amazing. Ordered it here soon after. It sounds fantastic in real life, even better with the HyVibe on, easy to play with low action, looks sharp, very nice! Even the hard case is nice. Stays in tune for months once strings break in.
Terry –
I won’t review the electronics. Plenty of reviews about that. Suffice it to say the electronics work as advertised. The dive stars are for the guitar itself. Outstanding guitar. The craftsmanship is excellent. The guitar plays and sounds better than any acoustic I have ever owned, and I have owned a lot. Admittedly, never paid more than $800 before, but I am very happy to have paid $1250 for this one. I had a friend bring his Taylor over that he paid about the same amount for. He loves his Taylor. After playing both, we agreed. The Taylor is a little louder and brighter, but not much. Could be simply the strings. Both of us agreed that mine was slightly easier to play. All in all, both guitars are excellent in terms of sound and playability. Both are beautiful, although my THV30DCE I feel has the edge. At the end of the session, my friend said he loves his Taylor, but if he known about the THV30DCE, he would have bought one of those instead. I agree that for the same money, I prefer mine over the Taylor. Couldn’t be happier. I waited till I had played it for awhile before writing the review. And, the customer service has been five star as well. If you are like me and care more about quality than anything else I think you would be very satisified with purchasing one of these.
