Line 6 Low Down LD150 Amp Review

Line 6 Low Down LD150  Amp
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
Upon reading reviews on Musicians Friend and some other sites I purchased the Lowdown 150 in December 2008. Out of the box, it sounded great though some of the presets are definitely lacking. The Smart Fx Envelope Filter is absolutely unusable though the Chorus effect is pretty decent. The amp simulators are okay. Rock preset is pretty sweet I gotta say.
I am a working musician and need to make sure that my gear is reliable and this amp has fallen short on small gigs, rehearsals and as a practice amp no less. The sound/volume seems to diminish the longer you play. For some reason the amp will change presets all on its own. Which has cost me a few dirty looks.. Thanks Line 6!
At this time there is some problem with the amp. It shuts down after being on for about 10 minutes as it heats up. (I take great care of my gear... never dropped or knocked around).
The only thing I have found this amp remotely useful for was practicing with the mp3/cd input, which many other amps come with. Aside from that, I wouldn't recommend this amp to my worst enemy! The warranty is up and I have a forty five pound paper weight in my practice space. The wiring schematics aren't available to the end user. So far the amp has been taken to a Line 6 repair shop and I still have the same problem. I'm taking it back again. Buyer Beware! The bells and whistles are mediocre at best and the amp itself has been nothing but a headache. Line 6 really needs to work on their bass line for amps. Look into buying another brand.

Korg DTR-2000 Pro Rack Mount Multi-Mode Auto Chromatic Tuner Review

Korg DTR-2000 Pro Rack Mount Multi-Mode Auto Chromatic Tuner
Average Reviews:

Sure it's important to tune your guitar, setting guitar intonation is equally important, especially if you want to ROCK & ROLL!! We're not all gifted with perfect pitch, so most of us need some help to propery tune & intonate our guitar. I had been using a Quick Tune tuner, it worked ok, but my guitars still seemed slightly off, the Quick Tune tuner indication would jump around irratically at times, making it difficult to see what was really going on. While watching a documentary on the building of Les Paul guitars, I noticed this awsome tuner they used, it turned out to be the Korg DTR-2000. I bought one here on Amazon, it is AWSOME!! it precisely follows the note to allow for precise tuning and intonatation. I also found out that harmonics can cause the note to waver, that was what caused my Quick Tune to read erratically, but was totally obvious on the DTR-2000. My guitars never sounded better!! You've got to get one of these!!!!

Schecter Hellraiser C-8 Electric Guitar (Black Cherry) Review

Schecter Hellraiser C-8 Electric Guitar (Black Cherry)
Average Reviews:

This is the first 8-string guitar (actually the second... see below for an explanation) I have owned, so I was not exactly sure how it would feel with the longer scale. I have played 7-strings for years, so I was already accustomed to a wider neck, but this is a monster. If you are coming from a 6-string, this might give you a bit of a problem for a while, as the neck is considerably wider than you will find on your standard guitar, and the scale is longer. Once you get used to the scale and the neck width, you will be in love.
Scale forms are more logical on the 8-string than the 7-string, as you are dealing with an even number of strings again. I found modal and scalar playing to be more intuitive with the move from 7 to 8 strings than from 6 to 7, because of the even number of strings. If you play your scales and modes in three-finger box configurations, you will find the 8-string guitar to be very easy to master.
The finish on this guitar is beautiful and the quilt is amazing. I cannot say enough about how great this guitar looks in person, as it is a lot better than expected. Many times you will see a picture of an instrument on the instrument and the one you end up with doesn't look as good, as they take pictures of the best looking example. This is not the case here. This guitar is absolutely beautiful. I also have a Schecter Damien Elite-8 Eight String Electric Guitar - Crimson Red and they both have the same wood and finish.
I bought this guitar because the Damien Elite 8 that I bought first has a bolt-on neck that makes it very difficult to play in the higher register. You will not have any problems with this guitar, as the contour of the neck-through design is very comfortable and feels wonderful.
If you are not going to play leads, the Schecter Damien Elite-8 Eight String Electric Guitar - Crimson Red would be a fine choice, as it costs a couple of hundred dollars less, but this is the ONLY way to go if you are playing leads.

Eventide ModFactor Modulation Effects Stombox Review

Eventide ModFactor Modulation Effects Stombox
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
To expensive for a "Assembled in China" product, which makes think twice about its quality compared with Made in Usa Eventide product, the main disadvantage is the AC adaptor and the fact that the stompbox does not allow batteries like the others stompoxes like Boss o MXR. Pay attention at each setting of your own user-preset banks, because at least one setting changes for no reason when you change banks randomly.

Decided to add a GiO to my (Apogee Ensemble-based) system for controlling guitar effects in Logic Studio. It works perfectly, and as a guitar player I love having a pedalboard that integrates seamlessly with my new virtual amp and stompbox rigs! The color-coded LEDs are a nice touch, and I've really come to rely on them for at-a-glance operation while writing and recording. Clever design. I've also run the GiO as a primary interface using the guitar input and headphone output - which is absolutely great - perfect for a portable setup on a MacBook Pro. How they pull off all of that low-noise, high-res audio I/O running off USB power is amazing. You simply can't go wrong with this latest Apogee stuff - the folks in Santa Monica are certainly "using the old noodle" and coming up with some innovative and well-executed products - well done!
