GUITARS

Why do we constantly scour want-ads and craigslist looking at the guitar stuff
for sale?. Why are we always on the lookout for new pickups, pedals, machines,
strings etc.? Why do we need more than one guitar? If I have to explain, you

SOLDANO SLO MINI 30 WATT KILLER AMP

I have never gotten excited about ANY solid state amp. Ever. Until now. The new

LESLIE WEST MOUNTAIN OF TONE PICKUP

THE BEST GUITAR TUNERS EVER

Over the past 20 yrs. it’s safe to say I’ve used every brand of guitar tuners
made. Grover, Schaller, Sperzel, Gotoh, Planet Waves, Musiclily etc. And to be
honest most of them are really good tuners. But when I tried Sperzel it was my
first time using locking tuners. I loved them so much that […]

life. I’ve followed Leslie’s career non stop. From Mountain, […]

LANEY HOT TRANSFORMER UPDATED

Now that I’ve been using the transformer cooling fan mod to control the
transformer heat issue, and I know I’m keeping it, I figured I may as well go

special PC case fans. Noise Blocker XM-1 Black Silent fans. […]

Laney Cub 12R gets a new home Ever since I found out the Laney was basically
