JESUS
I got this guitar only today and GOD! It is incredible! Plug in acoustic, comes with an allen key for the action adjustment (which is very low!), beautiful soft case it comes with, eq controls on the guitar, you get lows (or bass), mids and treble control, comes with a built in tuner, it also comes with a phaser setting that I haven’t tried yet. It requires a battery, a chunky one, don’t know the specific type. It is great! Like really. An incredible guitar. Great for excactly what it’s made for, TRAVEL! Great for banging around, lessons, all that. I will say, it is small. Not as big as my other Yamaha guitar. But is an acceptable size. It pairs great with my Flamma FSO2 Reverb Pedal you can find on my listing of it. Yeah, happy customer!!

Awesome Mic!!!!!👏👏
Yeah, just another incredible piece of kit by AKG the legends. Great for many reasons, great sound, great for live performances, great for drafting in the studio, and just an all round great piece of equipment. 4 stars because when gained enough, you can reallly hear it if you’re holding it. Like there’s a lot of interference when you’re holding it. It’s like those Sennheiser IEM’s that if they run off of anything, you just can’t hear what you’re trying to listen to. Anyway, other than that, I am veeeerrryy satisfied! 👏👏
Preferred Settings + Usage:
Very good with reverb and a mellow sound, haven’t really tried it more crispy.

Awesome Headphones!
There is nothing to dislike! In a studio setting these headphones are insanely good. They are industry standard, mostly flat sounding honest headphones that are an incredible price. Beyerdynamic are an amazing company, And they really made these headphones well.
Preferred Settings + Usage:
The only thing is that I tried using them out of my phone, which was stupid, and it didn't really sound as good as it did out of my Scarlett 2i2 interface, obviously.

Great Combo Amp!
This is a brilliant budget combo amp from Marshall. Handles top end really well, (unlike fender amps,) and has a great selection of effects and a built in tuner which I thought was a nice touch. Has a headphone and aux input to be able to play music which is really neat. Great power as well, 40W version I have and I believe there are others such as the 15W one. All together a really great purchase to go along with my Yamaha Revstar RSE20.
Preferred Settings + Usage:
The OD2 setting is brilliant as a really good rock/metal preset.

Cool Pedal!
Yeah it’s awesome, really high versatility in presets! All together, great addition to the pedalboard!
Preferred Settings + Usage:
My favourite preset for this pedal is 2. For one reason and one reason only, it’s not crazy! No mad ambience, pre delay, whatever.

Absolutely LOVE
So I only recently got this guitar, and I have found that it is another astounding piece of equipment from Yamaha. I am somebody who puts a lot of love into Yamaha, and they never disappoint. I also have a lot of experience with Yamaha as well, this guitar is more of a strumming guitar than a super-sonic shredder whammy guitar, (But add the right pedals and fx and you can easily achieve it!) It uses VH3 humbuckers, (if I’m not mistaken) and MWUAH! Absolutely incredible guitar.
Preferred Settings + Usage:
One thing about this guitar is getting a hard case for it, it has been a nightmare finding one, as someone originated in Europe, all of the custom case businesses are in Canada and places foreign. I have one being shipped soon, and I don’t even know if it’s gonna fit because the one I ordered is meant for a jaguar/jazzmaster style guitar so 🤷🏼. But anyway, great guitar!

Awesome piece of tech!
I am sooooooo happy with this absolute BARGAIN of a buy! Such a sick addition to my setup for live events and shows.
Preferred Settings + Usage:
I have no idea about anything to do with music theory, keys, or anything like that, but a tip for this is that you can't look up the key to a song and put it into the stomp box and expect It to work, you have to find out the key yourself.

Pretty Cool Condenser.
Yeah um, its been great with me! Definitely a budget microphone, but honestly im really surprised with how good this mic is, I would probably put this in the same category as the Rode NT1-A, (Maybe the Rode goes a little higher) But overall, a great mic.
Preferred Settings + Usage:
Weirdly enough, mine has been shocking my face when I am using it to record. Idk if mine is just faulty, but anyway, a great resolution for that is to just use a pop filter or windscreen.

Incredible DAW!!!
I am soo happy with my Apple Logic Pro experience! I have only used the 90 day free trial and BOY! is it great! This app is soo much fun to mess around with and I have made a MULTITUDE of tracks with Logic, and they are all awesome. I actually prefer using Logic Pro to record vocals and stuff like that than to use Audacity or a recording dedicated app, because it is soo much easier and effects like reverb and pedalboards are just GREAT!
Preferred Settings + Usage:
HOLD ON! Do not buy Avid Pro Tools before Logic! Trust me, just don't.

I AM IN AWH!
Wow this is one piece of kit! The value and quality of the sleek metal finish is mwah! Very good interface, Focusrite are a very good brand. USB-C!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Omg we need more of it!
Preferred Settings + Usage:
One minor perfection that could be made is a double headphone input instead of one, im sure there are adapters out there that could just double the output, but an AUX port wouldn't hurt.

Awesome piece of kit.
If im going to be honest, this piece is great! It's really great quality and modern design is beautiful, and really showcases the reliability and quality of Novation.
Preferred Settings + Usage:
One thing I do find with it is the it is really more for beats, rather that piano or any sort of guitar or anything like that. Definitely more of a beat pad than a piano, good for little leads but not for full on progressions, given it obviously has nothing to do with musical theory.

I have NO words.....
This guitar is an absolute one of a kind! The thick sound never lets me down and, I don't know what else to say, its absolutely beautiful.
Preferred Settings + Usage:
Maybe lowering the action wouldn't hurt, but otherwise its great!

Brilliant Mic!
I got this mic to pair with my TC-Helicon C1 stomp box (which I also have listed in my personal gear,) and goodness is it great! really went well in this duo for live performances, and its great for a good old bring-with-you budget setup, four stars because of the slight tinny sound off of it, but bear in mind, I am using a REALLY cheap "PA" speaker with it, so that might be the reason. Overall though, It is truly a great microphone!
Preferred Settings + Usage:
One thing that I do to really get the guts out of it is that, when you open the battery compartment, there is a little switch giving you the option to put it at 0db, 10db, 20db or 30db. I ALWAYS have it at 0db because then you can get some serious volume out of it, now I have never cranked it up to 11 on 0db, because i'm afraid i'd break the speaker or interface, but that just shows how loud it can really go!
