A ton of hardware for tons of sounds

Sennheiser’s succesful wireless series are now at the third or fourth generation. although the top-end latest generation are a bit on the pricey side, the earlier generation are still available second hand at quite reasonable prices… if you know where to look, and know how to be patient. I picked mine up from a professional […]

The Jackson Pro Series RR5 Rhoads™ features an alder body with a maple neck (through body) and compound radius rosewood fingerboard. The Jackson Pro Series RR5 Rhoads™ comes equipped with Seymour Duncan® JB humbucking pickups, Floyd Rose tremolo and black hardware.

The latest in the line (.. does it ever end?). I was so incredibly pleased with my EC-401 I longed for more ESP, or ESP Ltd, in my collection. From the days of early thrash metal I’ve wanted a guitar with a reversed headstock, but the ones on the Jacksons always seemed a bit to […]

I’ve used this little bugger in the studio and live, although with a band that doesn’t play loud.. at all!! Last week I tried to DI it, and it sounded more than acceptable. In fact, it sounded better than when using my Engl/ fifty-fifty combination with a microphone hooked up. Mic must’ve been REALLY shitty!! […]

Sofar I’ve played with it for only half an hour. It seems far more complicated to operate than my GX-700, and the tone is nowhere near the sparkle of the Rocktron Chameleon, which I got with the Roland as a package deal. I played with it for a while, but somehow I can’t seem to […]
