21. August 2007

You won’t find it listed on their website, and you certainly won’t stumble onto one while perusing the guitar racks down at your local “big box” guitar store, but if you look in the right places you’ll find that a few select retailers are now carrying this Limited Edition “Thin Skin” ‘62 Jaguar decked out [...]

Gibson Announces Guitar Of The Week #31 :: Flying V New Century

21. August 2007

1 Comment

So here it is: the latest custom Flying V to be born out of Gibson’s year-long Guitar Of The Week series––the newly minted limited edition Flying V New Century. To be perfectly honest, I’m very happy to see Gibson taking the New Century line in a whole new direction, because in case you missed it, those [...]

Play Like A Girl! Reviews The Luna Andromeda Floyd Grape

20. August 2007

8 Comments

When I published my Top 10 Guitars For Girls list back in 2006, Luna Guitars’ Andromeda Floyd Grape came in with an honorable mention at #9, not due to any kind of lack of quality on Luna’s part (actually, the specs looked great,) but because the company was simply too young, and for the life [...]

Just a quick note for the vintage effects freaks out there––over on YouTube Avi Bortnick & Michael Leonhart have posted a short clip of the new Electro-Harmonix Germanium OD in action, and it sounds pretty much like you’d expect… a little bit sweet, a little bit raunchy, and a whole lot of old-school overdrive. Would have [...]

Sneak Peek: Flying Eye Envelope Filter Due From ProTone At Winter NAMM

17. August 2007

Word on the street has it that ProTone Pedals––makers of some of the world’s most wonderfully raunchy guitar effects––will be unveiling at least three new pedals at the upcoming Winter NAMM 2008 show in Anaheim. But while the Brown Sugar Vibrato and Peligro Fuzz both sound like fun pedals for analog-effects fanatics, to my mind the [...]

T-Rex Unveils Their New Viper Vibe Pedal… Sort Of

16. August 2007

0 Comments

Back in May of this year (2007,) and apparently without an ounce of fanfare, T-Rex released their seriously stylin’ new Viper vibrato pedal onto the world. I don’t know how it went unnoticed––wrapped in black & white snake print it’s one of the more striking stomp-boxes I’ve seen in quite some time––but when I stumbled onto [...]
