Fender Developing Elvis Costello Signature Jazzmaster
Wow… 2007 is really turning into a hell of a year for those of us whose taste in guitar players runs a bit shy of the mainstream. Not only did we see Fender’s introduction of the Joe Strummer Telecaster and J. Mascis Jazzmaster, but it would appear that an Elvis Costello Signature Jazzmaster is now [...]

14. November 2007
Never long to stay out of the limelight, KISS guitarist Paul Stanley and venerable guitar maker Washburn have apparently teamed up on yet another new addition to the Paul Stanley Signature Series of instruments… introducing the Preacher. Designed by Stanley himself in close collaboration with the luthiers over at Washburn, the Preacher will be available in [...]

14. November 2007
Hehe… well, it looks like Michael Leonhart has done it again––he’s produced yet another refreshingly avant-garde video demo for Electro-Harmonix, this time showing off the company’s newly re-imagined Stereo Electric Mistress. As with Leonhart’s earlier video demos, you’ll probably either love this one or hate it, but either way you have to admit the guy is [...]

12. November 2007
Hell yes… I know of at least a few readers who will be rejoicing over the news that Eastwood Guitars is continuing its support for the oft-neglected left-handed guitar players of the world. Late last week the company announced “lefty” versions of not only the popular new Airline Twin Tone, but also Eastwood’s endlessly entertaining Mandocaster, [...]

Anyway, like a car wreck you just can’t turn away from, Fender’s Joe Strummer Signature Telecaster continues to haunt my dreams… The [...]

24. October 2007
Wow… I’ve been known to write some fairly in-depth reviews in my time (heck, a few of them have taken me literally weeks to complete,) but Jason Barker over at Steelbender.com just puts me to shame. His review of Carr’s new Vincent 1×12″ Combo––a heavily Class-A biased tube amp––is top notch, consisting of not only a [...]

19. October 2007
Well, the busy folks over at Paul Reed Smith (PRS) agreed to send me an SE One for review a few months back, but unfortunately the guitar has never materialized, and to be honest, with the chaos I’ve been through recently I probably won’t have time for another hands-on review for at least the next [...]

18. October 2007
When Electro-Harmonix announced the release of their new Micro POG effects pedal––essentially a miniaturized version of their incredibly cool POG polyphonic octave generator––I had to wonder how they were going to replicate the original pedal’s functionality in such a small configuration. As a dyed-in-the-wool Electro Harmonix fan I came about this close to purchasing the POG [...]
