Fantastic Delay, packed with almost any sound you're after!

Fantastic Delay, packed with almost any sound you're after! Didn't actually used the toneprint feature as never needed it (sure it works great), having onboard all spectrum of delays with 3 usable presents... Fantastic! Only complain is the size of it...

A bit of a disappointment...

My main amp is the Fender Hot Rod Deville 2x12 love the headroom on it, but was looking for something more Marshall like, with a bit of a bite as well. Seen many youtube videos of this amp and I was really impressed. Decided to get one from Andertons in the UK. Arrived next day. The build quality... well not any near my fender lol. The vinyl already coming off that thing :/ (brand new) As goes for the sound hmmm. Clean channel I guess is ok, but I didn't buy it for the clean sounds!!! The dirty channel? Well not any near as on the youtube videos! Very thin sounding, and the ISF knob doesn't do shit for me tbh. This amp doesn't take pedals that well. My advice is simple - Try it before you buy it! Paid £630 for it...

Amazing Trumpet

Professional players all over the world are now playing Xeno trumpets. This is due to the ease in which they can make the instrument sound and project as they like. The instrument is free and easy to play with perfect intonation and many options such as gold brass bell to enable the player to get the exact tone they are looking for.

This reverse lead pipe option gives players a feeling of less resistance.

Nice Acoustic

Nice, open sound not to heavy on the bottom end. Good playability

Not bad mid ranged shred axe :)

Unfortunately thats almost all what's left from my guitar collection. I kept it for few reasons one of them is the neck... Good affordable guitar with "working" floyd rose style bridge that doesn't make it go out of tune after each use... Also the pickups sounded not bad for stock ibanez...

My First Bass Guitar Hohner Pro Series PJ Bass (1987)

This bass combines P and J pick ups so it can give a good heavy rumbling sound with just the P, or with just the J there is a nice biting funky slap tone. Using both pickups together gives a great array of interesting tones suitable for nearly every style and allows the bass to be heard. With both pickups rngaged the bass has a lot of charater. I rate this a 7 because, again, although nothing mind blowing, the bass gives a lot of flexibility for tone which is always appreciated.

The best 5 string I played!

Each model features two Alnico hum-canceling pickups, made exclusively for the TRB in Yamaha's Japan factory. The pickups are mated to a proprietary active preamp that features a three-band EQ, master volume and blend controls.

TRB basses sport die-cast machines and solid brass bridges. Other appointments include oval Mother-of-Pearl position marker inlays on the fretted models, while the TRB1005F has a clean fingerboard design with Maple fret lines. Finishes include Translucent Dark Red, Translucent Black and Natural.

My Favourite Bass

Great playability, sound and very versatile...

RM-C112-220 220W 1x12" Rootmaster Combo

For players who dig the mid-range punch of a compact combo, the RM-MAG-C112-220 pairs a single 12” Ashdown bass speaker with a powerful 220W solid state amp, creating a compact powerhouse combo loaded with Rootmaster tone-shaping features.

Great amp for Practice and maybe small gigs. But if you play in rock/metal band with 2 guitarists and loud drummer, don't even think about it.

Nice Power House

Fantastic 500W Cab. "The new VX Series bass reflex cabinets were designed for bassists who demand excellent tone but prefer traditional paper cone drivers. These warm, punchy enclosures feature proprietary drivers with specially treated cones, impregnated fabric surrounds, matched convex dust caps all mounted in heavy steel frames. The high efficiency low moving mass design allows for maximum output and plenty of headroom throughout the full range of the driver. Rounding out the tone, each cabinet has a proprietary design horn loaded high frequency transducer.Using Heavy-duty plywood construction, the carpet covered cabinet has strong protective corners, ergonomic handles and a recessed jack cup protecting its 1/4" input.The VX215, handling 500 watts, features two 15" low frequency drivers and a high frequency transducer."

This kicks ass!

Knock off the Small Stone Phase Shifter by EHX. What can you say more... Sounds sweet, only issue I have is the size, but not big deal.

Can't go wrong with the classic fuzz...

I tried the bass version of this pedal, and it didn't sound that good to me. Someone put a video on youtube with guitar version played on bass and I actually liked it a bit more. So decided to get one. Bullseye! Sounds awesome!

Fantastic overdrive/distortion

Created in collaboration with hard rock bass legend James Lomenzo. The Lomenzo Hyper Drive draws on James' 30 year playing career that has seen him work with Zakk Wylde's Black Label Society, David Lee Roth, Ozzy Osbourne, Slash's Snake Pit, White Lion and Megadeth.
I love this thing!!!

Basic Limiter/Compressor

A cheap knock off of the famous Boss stompbox. Does the job well, maybe a bit more noisy...

My main amp. Absolutely fantastic sound!!!

Absolutely fantastic sound!!! You get everything you want from it. From Motown classic sound to Heavy growling Rock tone...
