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

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 1x12” Combo––a heavily Class-A biased tube amp––is top notch, consisting of not only a [...]

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 [...]

Noise-guitarist extraordinaire Lee Ranaldo of Sonic Youth, is apparently the happy recipient of this custom built Moonlander guitar from experimental luthier Yuri Landman. The instrument, one of just two in existence (Landman owns the other,) is a bi-headed stereo drone guitar armed with a whopping 18 strings––6 standard and 12 sympathetic. While the six standard strings [...]

Over the past thirty-seven weeks Gibson’s put out a few real lookers, a few clunkers, and a wide array of just so-so semi-customized Guitar Of The Week instruments, but yesterday’s release of the ‘67 SG Special Reissue with P-90 pickups is easily the one guitar from this program that I’d really like to own. Week 37 [...]
