Washburn Guitars & KISS’s Paul Stanley Introduce “The Preacher”

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 [...]

Video Demo Of The New Electro-Harmonix Stereo Electric Mistress

14. November 2007

4 Comments

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 [...]

Easing back into things here at EGR… thanks again for all of your incredible support. If you want to keep up with me on more of a personal level, you can always subscribe to my personal blog.

Steelbender.com Takes The New Carr Vincent For A Test Drive

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 [...]

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 [...]

Video Demo Of The New Electro-Harmonix Micro POG

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 [...]

Well, Eastwood has done it again… just when I was beginning to feel content with my current guitar line-up, along comes word that the world’s most prolific “retro” guitar builder is producing an extremely limited run of these classic Airline 2P DLX guitars––in stunning Metallic Copper finish. And when I say “limited” I mean limited: [...]

Fender Introduces Stevie Ray Vaughan “Lenny” Tribute Stratocaster

I was just beginning to wonder whether we’d see anything new from Fender before Winter NAMM, only to discover this morning that the company had announced yet another pre-determined collector’s item––the Stevie Ray Vaughan “Lenny” Stratocaster. Part of Fender’s illustrious Tribute Series, the SRV “Lenny” Strat is apparently being commissioned by Guitar Center––which purchased Stevie’s [...]
