Cope Till

Big and thick neck. Great for everything, but not a Shredder's guitar.

Great TV Yellow LP Jr. with 1 Humbucker, 1 Volume Knob, 1 Tone Knob with a Coil Tap.

Epiphone stepped up their game in 2020 w/the Gibson-Inspired Models. Is it as good as the 2020 Gibson Firebird? No, but it's as good as the 2017 Gibson model? Just about! Gibson has really gotten back to what you'd expect from them. Epiphones have been up and down. I've given one away because it was so terrible. This is a great guitar and the value of this model has increased.

This guitar sounds amazing and plays beautifully w/out those Godforsaken doves(this one has dot inlays). The Coil-tap on the back puts you in Tele territory. It's American and only 999 Bucks! The unfinished model is almost as light as an SG as opposed to the painted or charcoal S22's. The neck is perfect and the G string never falls out. I've had it in Drop C# Standard for 48hrs and it has stayed in tune perfectly. This is by far the best guitar for under 2k you can buy and it's one of the best I've owned. I put it up against a few Gibson 2020 models as well as other pricey PRS guitars. I could not justify the cost and I already own an Armada that I'm scared to ding up. Not this baby! Oh... and It shreds too. The PRS Tremolo is probably my favorite now.

I love the simplicity of 3 knobs and the neck is great / perfect width. I've got the Seymour Duncans in mine & it's so much more articulate than stock pick-ups w/out the fizziness that comes with recording high gain amps. I like it more than the PRS S22.

Sustain is one of the strangest Overdrives that I've ever heard built into an Amp. Built like a Tank and will probably run for 40+ years w/out maintenance. The IC 100 Amp's were made famous by T-Rex, Pink Floyd, The Clash and Daniel Ash(Bauhaus, Love & Rockets). The Amp has 2 Channels: 1 Super-Clean and a nasty Bright(Clean) Channel w/a Sustain switch. It plays well w/pedals as well the Amp has a Stage/Studio Volume Attenuator which is impressive for the '70s. Great Glam, Post-Punk Amp that will roar over the volume of a Band.

I've revised this review after this amp had been put head to head w/every boutique metal amp on the planet. It beats out Diezel, Driftwood, Mesa, etc and this is why no one is selling them. This is probably the most brutal amp ever made w/a nice punch to it. The chassis is not as tough as I think it should be. So a good shock mounted case is a must for touring. This Cobra responds to G12's best, however, it sounds killer w/a Mesa or Uber 4x12. ACHTUNG: YOU WILL BLOW this AMP/TRANSFORMER if it's not plugged into a Cabinet or Load Box for even 2 seconds. The FX Loop is TRS/Balanced. So only studio grade or balanced outboard effects can be used in the loop. It takes a bit of tweaking the EQ, but it is well worth it. Framus Cobra and Dragon Amps have been used by the likes of Killing Joke, Deftones, Napalm Death, Killswitch Engage and many more.

Sounds like a Sunn Model T and it's great for a Fuzz. It's easily dialed to taste by the volume knob on your guitar. I Freakiin' Luv It!

Great for Boost and great for Distortion into a good Tube Amp that takes Pedals well. I generally use as a boost for w/a high gain amp w/the gain at 5 or 6.

Can do Chorus as well Flange a bit. Solid Build and sounds great.

The pedal is easy to use w/2 knobs, however, you will probably need the 18 volt adapter for your power supply because it runs on two 9 volt batteries. It has one mono input and two outputs. This is one one of the best chorus pedals I've used. The sound can be unnoticeable when using it w/2 amps or it can be over the top if that's what you want. This thing is built like a tank and the engage button and contacts will never wear out.

Very transparent and perfect for getting rid of noise on a High-Gain Amp!

Great volume swells and for pulling back the saturation on a high gain amp to add cleaner dynamics.

This pedal is it's own thing and sits well with hi-gain amps. It really can add clarity and knock the edge off of the parts of a song that need a little dialing back. I've not heard another pedal like it.

Best SDC since the KM84 and much better than the KM84i

Great MIDI Based DAW Controller that is compatible w/Pro Tools w/4 Moving Faders, Volume, Panning, etc for controlling Automation via a MIDI Interface.

Sounds just like my BAE 1073 Console Modules, but the 1073D is my 1st choice for Vocal tracking due to the extra High Frequencies that are not included on my regular 1073's.

Sytek manufactured the Neotek Consoles in Chicago. This is the same preamp that was used in the console. Steve Albini used these Consoles at Electrical Audio and they are superb.. These are great for Ribbon Mics or Overheads. The transient response is quick and the transformer-less design prevents your cymbals and hats from getting too "swishy" sounding. They have 70db of gain, Phantom Power(48v), Phase Reverse and a Mute switch. Many come w/Burr Brown Op-Amps as an added feature to channels 2&4.

Great on Drums where fast transients are essential and not harsh sounding on Overheads. Great on everything!

I run an Isolated transformer and a balancing transformer that provides the best quality power possible and cuts the noise from the Master Volume of my Amek Mozart Console to zero where it hissed steadily before. The Furman always stays between 118-122 and is plugged into an UPS Back-Up so the truth is that you can't run a professional studio w/out at least isolating your power w/an Acme Transformer(about 5-6K purchased & installed) w/a separate circuit breaker for your equipment or something of the equivalent. All this said, running underpowered is dangerous for the life of your gear and monitoring w/a Furman PL-PLUS C is a great way to know when to turn your gear off and every redundancy is good even if it's the only one you have. I run Vintage Outboard Gear that I've owned for a long time and my mid-late 60's LA2A only needs a tube every 7-14 months & it gets used 365 days a year.

Everything made by Studer is great. The sound is outstanding and the transport is more stable than ATR 1/2" machine.

BAE is the real deal. I'd take a BAE 1073 over a Vintage Neve because it sounds as good and I don't have time to fool around w/maintenance.

Great for Drum Overheads, Room Mic, etc.

The KM 53a is one of my favorite vintage(1961) Tube SDC Mic's of all time. The KM 53a has an omni-directional capsule. The KM 50 series would be the predecessor of Neumann's highly desired solid state KM 80 series - most famously, the KM 84 which quickly became an Industry Standard for Drum Overheads. The KM 53a captures silky yet crispy hi's w/out the sibilance. I use it for Acoustic Guitar, Strings and as a mono Drum Overhead about 2-3' directly over the Drummer's head. It picks up low-mid's very well for a SDC and offers up some of the nicest saturation one could wish from a tube mic.
