Average Reviews:(More customer reviews)This board is cool, has cool features, and I like everything about it except I have 3 comments.1) the power cable for powering the whole board (it's a standard power cord, available anywhere) is too short. Plan on buying a longer one or get an extension cord.2) there is no way to put a should strap on...

Jet City Amplification JCA20H 20 Watt Guitar Tube Amplifier Head Review

The controls are very simple, and you can get a lot of lo- to mid-gain use out of it.Keep in mind, this amp does not have the best of glassy cleans, but it is easily moddable (even some available direct off of Jet City's website for additional...

Average Reviews:(More customer reviews)There are several good analog pedals that replicate ( not model) the sound of a high-gain Marshall tube amp: The Sansamp GT-2, and Sansamp "British" pedals, as well as the Sansamp PSA 1.1 all do a great job of that.The Sansamp PSA 1.1 is best for rack-rigs where midi control and signal-routing flexibility...

Average Reviews:(More customer reviews)I agree with most of the first review here. I've had this model for two years and tried a lot of things to get the pick-up sounding like a banjo instead of an electric guitar. I'm afraid I haven't succeeded - however that's not put me off it. I love this banjo. After many attempts I discovered that Elexir...

Shure P2R Hybrid Bodypack Receiver, H2 Review
Average Reviews:(More customer reviews)While I think this little unit is expensive (mine was about $300 and didn't include the headphones - -1 star for price) it does work great. The singer already owned the transmitter unit so I only had to buy the receiver. This is saving my ears. I bought some Sennheiser CX200 Twist-To-Fit Earbuds that...

Average Reviews:(More customer reviews)The ION LP turntable was much better than I thought it would be for the following reasons:1) First of all, the sound through the headphones was nice, full, and deep - much better than I expected.2) Recording directly to a CD made it much easier than dealing with software since I don't have the time to...

Cordoba 25SK Soprano Ukulele Review
Average Reviews:(More customer reviews)Don't get me wrong. I have enjoyed this ukulele and played it every day since I got it last August. It has a bright sound and and it's a pretty little thing too. However, 2 days ago the bridge just popped off.

Average Reviews:(More customer reviews)This is the by far the best pickup set I have ever seen or played. The ease of installation is great. I had to rout out some of my body and had to solder the plug in jack, but it was easy (I am mechanically inclined so that helped). The sound is awesome, I love the 3 position switch, seperate volumes...

Average Reviews:(More customer reviews)This is definitely a high quality fx pedal! It's built like a tank and you couldn't ask for better quality reverbs - they are rich and lush and very "tweak-able." There are three reasons I give this 4 stars instead of 5: 1. This thing eats 9v batteries pretty quickly, quicker than most pedals I've used;2....
