The Sadowsky SBP-1 Outboard Bass Preamp/DI Pedal contains the same famous circuit built into every Sadowsky bass.

Housed in a small footpedal box for use on the floor, it measures just 4.5″ x 4.5″ x 2.25″ and weighs 1.5 pounds. Just plug your bass into the box and then go from the box to your amp, and/or direct to the board. Controls consist of volume, treble boost, and bass boost. Footswitches include preamp bypass and a mute switch with a live tuner out. Other features: ground lift switch for the DI and a low battery indicator LED.

The Preamp/DI Pedal is perfect for vintage basses where installation of an onboard preamp would affect the instrument’s original condition and resale value. The Preamp/DI pedal is recommended for all passive basses, basses with active pickups, and instruments that have active electronics that can be bypassed. It also works great with all upright bass pickups.

The Dream Mender is Mojo Hands’ newest DSP based pedal, and is based on a classic from the 70’s often referred to simply as a DMM. We filtered and tweaked for months to obtain the analog bucket brigade chip sound the original is prized for, and condensed it down to a compact three knob format. Where it varies from the original is that it has much clearer feedback repeats, almost double the delay time, and will never need the occasional BB chip re-calibration.

The Americana is a 20-watt 1×12 ‘TV’ style combo, inspired by 50’s tweed tones – complete with onboard spring reverb.

Fantana dives into the classic inspiration behind the combo, saying “A long-standing goal of mine has been to successfully incorporate a great sounding spring reverb into a classic 50s Tweed circuit, without taking anything away from the core tone. Taking the lessons learned from the development of the reverb circuit found in the Aynsley Lister Signature amplifier, I designed a new circuit from the ground up, this time using a 12AX7 dual-triode valve as both driver and recovery. The reverb effect compliments the core tone of the amplifier, without becoming splashy or intrusive. Vast, rich, and spacious reverberations are on offer from a conveniently located dial control, found on the main control panel for easy access and adjustment.”

The two-channel amp is loaded with 2 6L6 tubes for that vintage Tweed sound. These drive a WGS Black and Blue Alnico speaker.

The Blackhawk is a more aggressive, workhorse amplifier inspired by the guitar tones of the British Invasion period of rock. The 36-watt amplifier comes as either a head or a 1×12 combo. Both the combo and the matching 1×12 speaker cab are loaded with a WGS Blackhawk speaker.

Fantana explains further: “It’s no secret that I’m a fan of the simple amplifiers, where the player can explore the full-range of tones on offer with ease and without complication. The Blackhawk, featuring a two-band EQ, Pre-amp and Master Volumes, and a Cut control, offers just that. Plug in to the single input and fill the room or stage with glorious, full-bodied singing British tone that can be shaped and sculptured to work with your guitar and FX pedals.”

The 4xEL84 power section combined with a tuned master-volume circuit lets you get saturated, 60s-style overdrive at any volume level. To smooth off the high end, a ‘cut’ control lets you manage the resulting signal’s treble content – either taming a harsh sound or providing that smooth, tone-rolled off lead sound.

The Wheelhouse is a 40-watt 1×12 combo, inspired by the guitar tones of Nashville, Americana and Southern Rock.

Rift Amplification’s owner, Chris Fantana, described the inspiration behind the amp: “After the successful release of the Hawker, I became fascinated by the guitar tones coming out of Nashville by players such as Keith Urban, Brad Paisley, and Zac Brown Band’s Clay Cook. I had, perhaps naively, assumed that the classic Country guitar sound was a Telecaster plugged into a Tweed amplifier. These players proved me wrong in such a big way. Those guys are paying anything BUT a tweed amp, so a deep-dive down that rabbit hole resulted in my latest original design, the Wheelhouse. In similar fashion to how the Hawker captures classic British valve tones, I wanted to do the same for the sounds coming out of the studios, sessions, and live shows of Nashville.”

The amp features onboard two-knob (dwell and level) spring reverb, as well as a buffered-series FX loop. It’s loaded with a single WGS G12C/s Ceramic speaker, and sports hand-wired eyelet board construction, custom-wound transformers and hand-selected, high-end components.

The Cort Gold series is designed with a total focus on sound, but now with the introduction of the Gold-Edge LE, we are proud to say that the focus and dedication has expanded to push the limits on ergonomics and playability. Cort’s decades of technological advancements and guitar building knowledge sparked the development of the ‘triple bevel cut’ system, and with the right amount of angle and depth for each bevel cuts on three different strategic areas of the guitar body, acoustic guitar playing has never felt more comfortable. Together with selected master grade tonewoods, L.R. Baggs Anthem pickup system, and the top-of-the-line Gold standard build and sound quality, the Gold-Edge LE is the true golden result of tradition and innovation.

The new Black Beauty Soapbar P90 is a cosmetic alternative for guitarists who prefer the more traditional styling of a covered Soapbar pickup vs. JBE’s standard uncovered models that are popular among many soapbar enthusiasts.

Regardless of which design you may choose, the Black Beauty P-90 has the same JBE sonic and performance attributes of the uncovered designs. The neck pickup is wonderfully warm, clear and present...never dull or lifeless while the bridge pickup has all the attitude and tone expected of a bridge P-90. With both switched "on" you get a wonderfully hollow/woody sound that seems to belie the tonal character of each pickup separately.

The pedal features controls for mixing Sub Octave Control, Up Octave Control to adjust pitch. Dry control increases the input dry volume. Modulation Control to unleash the organ tones.

In the world of high-end, high-gain guitar amplification, the Bogner Überschall is a legend. It’s ability to pile on all-tube distortion while letting every string ring out has made it a go-to amp for an incredible range of players. The Überschall’s - which translates to Super Sonic - responsive, and wall-shaking second channel is where most high-gain fanatics spend their time. Not only does it deliver premium crunch, but it’s extended low-end capabilities make it a perfect choice for players of extended-range and drop-tuned guitars like you could hear it with Korn, Tool, Slipknot, Rammstein to name a few.

There was no way Synergy wasn’t going to get Reinhold Bogner to re-create his classic metal machine in a Synergy module format. And that’s precisely what he’s done. By slipping the Synergy Überschall preamp module into your Synergy rig, you’ll unleash the same aggressive tones and impeccable response as the original amplifier. Reinhold even took it a step further with the addition of Pre-EQ, Boost, and Cut mini toggles to further shape your ideal tones.

Reinhold Bogner is a king in the world of boutique high gain. You can find his amps backing up a wide range of A-list players, such as Alice In Chains’ Jerry Cantrell, Alter Bridge’s Mark Tremonti, Steve Lukather, George Lynch, Eric Johnson and even the late, great Walter Becker. Much of Bogner’s appeal comes from his legendary Ecstasy 100-watt head.

The Ecstasy is so popular that players demanded Synergy work with Reinhold to distill it down into this preamp module which is two years in the making. The Blue channel - based on the Ecstasy’s rock ‘n’ roll-approved second channel - offers shades of gain that, when combined with two, 3-position Pre-EQ and Schizo switches, cover everything from blues to hard rock. Switch over to the Red channel, and the same control layout brings in layer after layer of harmonically rich gain, perfect for wide-open leads and metal.

The ”Noise Reaper” is a professional noise gate designed for line level instruments, guitar and bass that has evolved from our noise gate technology within our “Warp Drive and Fig Fumb” high gain distortion and fuzz pedals. Tried and tested for many years in these applications with added improvements controlling unwieldy feedback and signal sources, be sure that this is one of the best noise gates on the market.

The pedal consists of a “Threshold” control knob which enables you to control how much the gate opens allowing for the dynamics you want to shine through. The pedal works by taking the input sensitivity of the guitar input and the noisy signal source and comparing the two which enables you to gate unwanted noise but still be able to sustain notes if playing lead guitar sections. The LED indicates if the noise gate is on or off and it has a high-quality soft touch relay based true bypass footswitch / circuit.

The pedal uses a high quality VCA which is the THAT Corporation 2181C for this application giving transparent ultra-low distortion and high dynamic range to keep your tone sounding absolutely fantastic.

The “Noise Reaper” can operate in “Pedal” mode and “Series FX Loop” mode. You can use two Noise Reapers for absolute silence should you need to as a 3rd mode.

In the fall of 1950, the world of guitar and popular music changed forever with the introduction of the Broadcaster®, Fender’s first solid body electric guitar with a truss rod and two pickups. A few short months later, a telegram from Gretsch®, owner of the BroadKaster® trademark, ended Fender’s use of the name. For a short time, the word "Broadcaster" was simply clipped off the headstock decal - these guitars are known as "Nocaster®s." Thereafter, this revolutionary guitar was dubbed the Telecaster®. Original Broadcaster models, of which only 250 are thought to have been produced, have become highly collectible.

The Fender® 70th Anniversary Broadcaster celebrates the remarkable origins of one of Fender’s most iconic models. Features include an ash body with Blackguard Blonde lacquer finish, period-correct black phenolic pickguard, thick "U"-shaped neck, Custom Shop-designed '50-'51 Blackguard pickups, special anniversary neck plate, embroidered case and a custom COA. The controls are wired for standard Telecaster operation, while an optional original Broadcaster wiring kit, included in the case, can be installed to replicate the unique "blend" circuit used in original Broadcasters. Production of the 70th Anniversary Broadcaster will be limited to 2020 only.

The Heritage series ‘60s P Bass matches an alder body with a 1963 C-shaped maple neck, and houses a Premium Vintage-Style 60s Single-Coil P Bass pickup.

The MIJ Heritage ‘50s Precision Bass pays tribute to the original Precision Bass that Fender introduced in 1951. It features an alder body with a thick C-shaped maple neck. Like the guitar models in the series, it features a period-correct pup in the form of the Premium Vintage-Style 50s Single-Coil P Bass pickup. It also has a 1-ply gold anodized aluminium pickguard.

A favourite among surf rockers of the 60s for its rhythm and lead circuit and tremolo system, the Jazzmaster has seen a strong resurgence in recent years. This reproduction of the ‘60s Jazzmaster comes in two varieties: alder and ash, both featuring a set of Premium Vintage-Style ‘60s Jazzmaster Single-Coil Pickups.
