A Behemoth

This is not a guitar, it's a terminator. Comfortable, versatile, elegant, capable of producing a crystalline clean and a distorted sound that raises the dead... moreover, it has a special timbre that I have not seen in other semi-hollow guitars. An absolute blast 10/10.

A 10-point Guitar

Once I found one of these models in a store, I had tried an American vintage model from the 60s and then I tried this one; to say that it was leagues ahead would be an understatement. I should have bought it and I still regret it. It's the embodiment of the Hendrix sound, wonderful. If I find one again, I'll buy it even if I have to sell a kidney. 10

A Great Standard

This model is ideal for achieving a classic wah sound. It doesn't have frills or many options, but it delivers a great sound and the construction is magnificent. It's a solid and reliable standard, like many BOSS pedals ;)

An Exemplary Booster

I've had this pedal for years and I think it's one of the best on the market.

When I bought it, I was looking for a boost pedal that would add a little magic to the mix, and this pedal has it! The extra life it gives your sounds is very musical, it adds depth, brightness, warmth, and drive. With it, you can not only highlight solos, but you can also use it to give your sound more body or keep it connected all the time to get a little extra punch that makes the snap of the strings shine in a very particular way; the percussive sound that this pedal can provide is very unique, irreplaceable. In addition to being a solid, high-quality, and very versatile pedal. I wouldn't take it off my pedalboard for anything.

My Favorite Analog Delay

Not only does it have an uncommon number of repetitions for an analog delay, not only is it magnificently built, it simply works. Its sound is wonderful, and the little button it has on the upper left allows for a very particular modulation (which makes it like two pedals in one). I don't know, the natural response of this gadget makes its delay as smooth as possible. It is very easy to set up and adjust. I am excited about it.

A New 21st Century Classic Overdrive/Distortion

For me, this is a pedal that every serious guitarist should have; it doesn't matter if you play Country, Blues, Rock or Heavy Metal, it's fantastic! Fulltone makes handmade pedals, with high-quality components, True Bypass, and the solidity of a Soviet tank. If you connect a Telecaster it sounds like a Telecaster, if you connect a Les Paul it sounds like a Les Paul, I don't know how to explain it better: it simply delivers a natural, warm, full-bodied saturation, like that of a valve amplifier, but it can venture into the realm of harsher distortion. It's an enormously versatile pedal that can be used as a light overdrive, as a heavier one, or as distortion; it allows you to find the desired tone with great ease. Its dynamic range and sensitivity are unsurpassed. The bomb, a contemporary classic.

My Favorite Strings

These are great strings, at a reasonable price. If you play a Telecaster and you don't use 0.10 of this type or similar, you miss the sweet spot of the instrument. I think Eric Clapton and John Mayer also use them... I like them.

Good practice amp with a saturated channel much better than others in this price range

Considering its price, it's a very handy practice amp. It has the right volume to be able to study quietly at home. You can connect your headphones, it has an input to play tracks over, and it's robust. It can even serve for small rehearsals or jams.

As for the sound, the clean is decent; it's not a tube clean, of course, but it's not bad. The most interesting thing is the saturated channel; you can give it a little "drive" and get a very interesting crunch sound, from Blues to crunchier rhythm sections, or you can push it and play quite heavy. I would say the best thing about the amp is its saturated channel: I've tried Orange, Vox, and Fender amps at this price (or higher) and the distortion stinks; in the case of the Marshall MG10, it's a much better distortion.

Simply a GREAT pedal

It's a Fulltone pedal, so it's a quality pedal. The construction is fantastic, the sound it delivers is that of a vintage fuzz; ideal for Stones, Hendrix, Gilmour type sounds, and the like. I think it's the best vintage fuzz I've ever tried, however, if you're looking for a fuzz that sounds super fat, it's not the most suitable. If you love late 60s and early 70s British blues-rock, this is your pedal. Eric Johnson loves it and so do I :)

Improved Tubescreamer

The Maxon OD-9 is an improved version of the classic TS-9 Tube Screamer and is a true bypass pedal. It is a classic and solid overdrive; with it, you get what you traditionally expect from a pedal of these characteristics; when used on a warm tube amplifier you achieve greater gain and color the sound naturally. I believe that whether it's this model or a classic Ibanez, all electric guitarists should have one. A fantastic pedal with even better construction and features than the Ibanez TS9 (originally it was Maxon who manufactured them); in short, a reliable and quality device.

Affordable Acoustic with Great Value for Money

I've had a model like this for 10 years and the truth is that the value for money still surprises me. It sounds good, tunes well, you can connect it to an amp, it has an integrated tuner and its neck (relatively narrow) makes it very comfortable. I'll end with an anecdote: On one occasion, after a Jam, a colleague with a Yamaha acoustic 200 euros more expensive offered to exchange it for the Fender CD-140SCE. He had tried both and I did not accept. It's an economical but very decent acoustic.

El ampli a válvulas más vendido y un estándar de sonido valular.

Creo que es un ampli con un limpio fender estupendo. El canal drive requiere un poco más de paciencia, pero perilleando y usando una equalización inteligente da un resultado bastante bueno en el terreno del rock y el hard rock, si le añades un overdrive decente sales volando XD Yo siempre lo he visto como un combo “de batalla”, un autentico "todo terreno". La construcción es fantástica (parece un tanque soviético) y suena muy fuerte, funciona estupendamente con pedales, y al ser tan popular se encuentra en muchas salas de conciertos y jam sessions, lo cual está genial, porque si tienes uno sabes como ajustarlo en un santiamén. En resumen, todo un estándar de los amplis a válvulas a un precio razonable. Yo lo recomiendo

Very comfortable

I love it, I like that they end in a point and the roughness facilitates the grip so it can be held well even if you are sweating, it is very easy to be precise with this pick. It's subjective, of course, but I like it.

Telecaster of the Future

Fantastic! An instrument with superb construction and a resonance that makes it sound great even when unplugged. The noiseless pickups maintain the tone of a single coil, but also give a lot of play when you turn up the gain. The contour and cut of the body facilitate execution and make it easy to access the high frets. It maintains the minimalist charm of a Telecaster, but its sound is more modern, without that meaning it is "less authentic" or similar nonsense. The S-1 system gives more versatility to the instrument, with it you can alternate between a series or parallel configuration, so you have a fourth position with a bit more body. In conclusion, it is a very versatile guitar, comfortable, with a great sound, a lot of "punch" and a fantastic timbre.

An NBA level instrument ;) , tremendous viola.
