Small but decent

For a small amp this can actually get quite loud. My bassist has used it a lot. But all in all this is just another practice amp. Great for starting out!

It's "okay"

For a solid state amp, this has been okay. You're not gonna get the best tones in the world with this, I recommend it if you're just starting out and you're looking to go for the starter half-stack route. I really do like the contour knob though, but I would not suggest using the crunch tone on this. Not the best. I've used this in quite a few shows, but I decided it was time to move on, you can do so much better.

Favorite Cab

This probably one of my all-time favorite cabs. While mine is tan on the front instead of black, This was a part of my main gear setup forever. It means a lot to me, as along with the EC-1000 guitar, my father also put lots of hard overtime work into getting this for me. Something I'm still thankful for to this day. Love the sound I can get from it.

My only bass

The only bass I own at the current moment. While it's not the greatest sounding bass in the world in my opinion, it does the job for me for right now. I aim to get a much better quality bass in the future.

I bought this at a local music shop in Watertown, CT as part of the Affinity Combo Starter Pack that comes with Rumble 15 Bass Amplifier and much more. At the time we REALLY needed a bass but at the most affordable rate. The situation called for this. But with a little bit of work on it, it's not that bad! Use it for writing songs/recording demos, and my bassist will use this as his second bass from time to time at shows. Decent Starter Bass IMO.

Love it

I've only ever owned 2 acoustic guitars. One being one of those starter ones, and then this, a gift from my uncle. I never knew "Angelica" guitars existed, and I STILL don't know much about them. I've had to google it right before I submitted this and create a new item for this one. And take the picture for it ahah. Honestly, does it sound and/or feel like a much more...expensive acoustic? No of course not. But I still love it, I like the sound and it works for now. You'll see me with this a lot.

What started it all

The Fender "STARCASTER" Strat. I cringe at that name. Nothing comes close to an actual Fender Starcaster (those things are beautiful).

This is what started it all. My very first guitar. When I first took an interest in music. I was tired of just listening and listening, I wanted to start CREATING music, and learn more about it. I knew nothing about chords, writing, or even about the instrument itself. I just needed something to START with. And that's exactly what this is, a STARTER guitar.

I asked my dad to buy me a guitar and this was it. I thought it 'looked cool'. I was always a fan of the sunburst look (hence my tele). To be honest, I don't remember where it was bought, but it was one of those starter packs, where it comes with a small amp. Probably a BJs...Or Walmart or something.

I started watching YouTube videos and online tutorials, slowly teaching myself, I was very excited. I was determined to learn some of my favorite songs. Eventually starting my first band.

Along with the Brownsville Bat, this too is somewhere buried in closet, and haven't touched it in the longest time.

Don't expect this to sound amazing, because in my opinion...for me it does not.

Just for the looks

My second ever guitar.

While it was a huge improvement from actual FIRST guitar, This was a time where I knew nothing about guitars LOL. My young teenager-self thought, HEY that looks SICK I WANT IT. And bought it off of a kid I went to school with. A cringe-worthy decision when I look back it now, what was I thinking?

Oh well, doesn't matter. I don't even know where it is to be honest. Probably buried somewhere in one of my closets.

A fan, my writing guitar.

For me this was more-so a collectible. As any die-hard fan of Tom Delonge, we all want to own this at some point in our lives ahaha. I got this at a time where all I was doing were Blink-182/Angels and Airwaves covers for my college's Music and Arts Club. It was a fun time. But I've moved past it. You'll probably most likely never see me playing live with this anymore. It sits besides my computer next to my Line 6 Podfarm UX2, for when I write songs/record demos. I guess you could say I only use this guitar for songwriting. I do however love the Dirty Fingers pickup in it.

But on a serious note, I've always been a fan of the "larger" guitar. I hope to one day own an actual ES-335. The sound from those is something I can easily fall in love with.

My Secondary

My latest purchase. As a fan of Tom Delonge and some of his tones, this was a MUST-HAVE for me. I love the feel of a stratocaster, and LOVE the Seymour Duncan pick-ups it has in it. I have a lot of fun with this one.

An old friend.

One of my very first guitars. A gift from my father. My first "real" guitar. At the time I was very into heavier music. A time where "metalcore", heavy rock, metal, and more is all I played and learned. I remember having a blast doing metallica covers with this one ahaha. But now, I'm not really into this sound anymore. I think it looks beautiful and always will cherish it, and to be honest I don't think I'll ever sell it just because it resembles the hardwork my father put into getting me this guitar along with my Mesa Cab. I may dust it off one day and jam with it.

My Primary

My favorite guitar to use, whether it's practicing, writing, or playing it live. Love the sound I get from it regardless of which amplifier I use. Huge fan.
