Washburn D10 Series D10SCEK Acoustic Electric Cutaway Guitar Review

Average Reviews:(More customer reviews)I've had this Washburn electric acoustic guitar (D10SCEK) for over 2 years and it has been an absolute delight to play on. It was (and still is) in such demand that both Amazon and the Washburn sites were out of stock when I tried to order it. I had to pre-order it direct from the Washburn site, but...

Jackson RR24M Rhoads - Snow White w/ Black Bevels Randy Rhoads Signature Electric Guitar with Case Review

Average Reviews:(More customer reviews)I bought one of these a couple months ago from a nearby shop. It has a great sound, is fairly lightweight, the neck is thin and the fretboard is nice and smooth. The tremolo is a bit tough to get right, but once in tune it stays in tune. I was extremely surprised at how long my guitar stays in tune,...

TC Electronic G-Natural Floor Based Effects System Specifically for Acoustic Guitar with Microphone Preamp and Vocal Effects Review

Average Reviews:(More customer reviews)The owner's manual is not very good, TC could have done a much better job with it considering the price of the unit and the fact that it is full of switches and knobs. Still, after a short time playing around with the settings I was able to edit the factory presets and save my own, so it wasn't too bad....

Godin SD 22 Electric Guitar (Amber Flame Leaftop RN) Review

Average Reviews:(More customer reviews)Bought the Godin SD 22 but not from Amazon. Bought it from a private owner who bought it new and never used it. I own both an American Telecaster and Les Paul. This guitar is somewhat a combination of both and maybe a little Stratocaster in there too. You will find the wood quality excellent, (Canadian)...

Gibson Les Paul Axcess Standard Electric Guitar, Floyd Rose, Ice Tea Review

Average Reviews:(More customer reviews)When I bought this product at guitar center, i thought i was taking home a quality product. What actually happened was after a week of playing it, the whammy bar fell out and took some parts with it and that was a $100 repair and a month after that the head snapped and that was much more expensive. After...

Bogner Alchemist 112 Tube Guitar Amplifier Review

Average Reviews:(More customer reviews)The performance of this amp as far as tone and featuresis great. Some classic Bogner tones can be had forsignificantly less than buying a USA Bogner.However, these amps seem to be plagued with Q&Aissues. Just do a Google search.In my case, it worked fine for about 2 weeks thenone day it made a loud...

Dean Razorback V Guitar 25.5 Scale Black-Yellow with Case Review

Average Reviews:(More customer reviews)This is just simply a great guitar. Keep in mind the floyd rose is licensed but I have dive bombed on this guitar repeatedly and it does not go out of tune. The 255 comes with active EMG pickups. Mine is not the 255 version but the one just under it, but I know the EMG's simply scream as a fellow musicians...

DigiTech RP1000 Integrated-Effects Switching System Review

Average Reviews:(More customer reviews)Here is my review of this Multi-effects/amp-modeling/integrated switching system. I have been playing guitar for well over 10 years and have a decent amount of experience with Multi-effects units. I own the Digitech GNX4 and an earlier model BOSS unit with the COSM modeling. I have provided my rating...

Bugera BC30-212 Boutique-Style 30-Watt Class-A Valve Guitar Combo Amp with Valve Rectifier Review

Average Reviews:(More customer reviews)I bought this amp approximately a year after purchasing the Bugera 333XL212. I read the descriptions of this amp's abilities, and decided that it would be a nice addition to my amp arsenal, if it only did half of what they claimed it could do. Needless to say, I was surprised with the amp's responsiveness,...

Ovation CK047 Celebrity Acoustic Electric Guitar (Figured Koa Top) Review

Average Reviews:(More customer reviews)The short and sweet version is: the CK047 is a good guitar under any measure; I added the iDea retrofit preamp, and now I have MP3 recording (high quality) and playback (great for jamming!) right on the guitar. I have played for 20 years, and owned a few guitars. I believe I can notice subtleties that...

Recording King Century Studio Series 12th Fret OOO-Style Acoustic Guitar (Mahogany) Review

Average Reviews:(More customer reviews)I have bought a lot of guitars the last few years looking for the right one. The right fit and sound and feel. Well my search is over, this is a world class guitar in every respect.Very light weight but well made, plays easily, a fingerpickers dream. A deep rich sound yet with crisp trebles. Very very...

Dean Edge 8-String Bass, Active Electronics, Classic Black Review

Average Reviews:(More customer reviews)So, I decided to buy an 8-string and learn how to play it, since I was already uver-used to playing the 4-string. You know,I wanted that high-end dominance that the 8-string provides.This bass does all of that, and has active pickups to boot. Not that they are particularly the best active pickups (the...

Squier by Fender Vintage Modified Jazz Bass '77, Black Review

Average Reviews:(More customer reviews)The Squier Vintage Modified '77 Jazz Bass is an inexpensive jazz bass from Indonesia with good features and very good workmanship and is a great value for the money. Although mine was shipped with round-wound strings, I put on half-rounds for a somewhat mellower sound. But if you like rounds, you will...

Epiphone Thunderbird PRO-V Electric Bass Guitar, Natural Oil Review

Average Reviews:(More customer reviews)I Like this bass alot everything is great the feel the action, it just seems to me like a very well built bass overall. The only main issue I have on this is it has very poor pickup of the Low B string. I thought it might of been my bass but I recently tried another one and it had the same problem, then...

This one, the PBSM is a beautiful instrument with a very warm sound. Mahogany. It lends itself very well to the typical minor key blues I play. I use mine...
