Fender has a history of building great instruments. This guitar, like so may before it, doesn't disappoint. The rosewood back and sides and solid spruce top all contribute to a warm, full-bodies sound that you can count on in any room or on any stage.

I first saw one of these when I went to put in an order for a different, much more expensive guitar. I ended up walking out with this one instead. Schecter SVSS is without a doubt the best guitar I have ever owned and I'd be surprised (pleasantly, albeit) to find a guitar that fits me better. I know a couple other guys who have one as well. They all say the same thing that I do. Schecter is a brand with a history of building knockout guitars, but they really hit it out of the park with this one.

Great amp with a great sound; it ranges from jazzy, glassy clean to pure rock 'n' roll grit and everything in between. No matter what you plug in or how you set the controls, it never compromises a warm, So-Cal surf vibe that you would expect from an amp like this.

This is a great cabiner! It is loaded with four amazing Celestion Vintage 30 speakers that bring so much bite and life to my tone.

This effect is definitely one of the most versatile fuzz boxes I have ever owned. The two switches add lots of variety to the already iconic big muff circuit. This makes for a pedal that can range from a hard-clipping booster to an angry beehive.

If there is a must-have effect pedal for any guitar player, this is it! Cry Baby is an effect that needs no introduction. It has been heard in countless recordings and live shows through the decades, and it will continue to be heard as long as there is music to be made.

One of the best chorus effects I've ever played and the only one I've ever needed to own! This is piece of gear I take to every show because I use at every show! The effect is clear and full bodied, although muddiness can be dialed in if it is desired.

The only reverb pedal I'll ever need. I feel like I could spend a lifetime playing with this pedal and still be discovering cool things about it. Also, the soundbanks make it super easy to switch between reverbs if you need different ones.

The tonal range of this amp is incredible. The ISP Control allows to me shape the tone against the Three-Band EQ. The tone can range from crystal cleans to heavy distortion.
