NAMM Update!
EGR’s Summer NAMM 2007 Index Cary Jul 25th
With Summer NAMM 2007 right around the corner it would seem prudent to build an index page for all the late-breaking guitar & gear announcements.
Bookmark us now, and you’ll have quick and easy access to the latest NAMM info as it becomes available. Here’s to a great Summer Show!
Pre-Show Announcements, Leaks & Other Fun Stuff
- Fender yesterday unveiled the new J Masic Jazzmaster, in honor of Dinosaur Jr. frontman J. Mascis… purple and sparkly––what’s not to love?
- Fender also introduced a rather badass Tele finished in flat white and outfitted with active EMG humbuckers––the Jim Root Telecaster––in conjunction with Slipknot guitarist Jim Root.
New Guitars & Gear From The Showroom Floor
- Gretsch today released two new beautiful instruments––the upgraded G6134T-LTV White Penguin, and the 100CE & G100CEBK Synchromatic Acoustic Electric Archtop models.
- Squier has announced their latest Artist Model guitar, the Avril Lavigne Telecaster. Actually, a fairly unique instrument, including a checkerboard pickguard, and single topless humbucker.
- Ibanez busted out with a number of new guitars at NAMM today, but most interesting to this reader was the introduction of the insanely green Ibanez RGR320EX––a shred-head’s dream, built for speed, aggression, and seriously over the top looks.
- Ibanez released three new hollowbody archtops at NAMM––perhaps the nicest of the bunch being the Artcore Custom AF105SM.
- The other two releases from Ibanez were the Artcore AS73B and Artcore Custom AS103BM, a par of semi-acoustic double-cutaway models.
