    Ibanez 2024 NAMM

    Yeah, the listing for it on zZounds says March 22nd. Granted, their estimated in-stock tends to be excessively pessimistic. I'd think somewhere end of February maybe.

    Ibanez 2024 NAMM

    Yeah, that aup10n is my #1 takeaway from Ibanez this year. I've spent so many hours playing a bard in Baldur's Gate 3 that I pretty much need to buy it now. Came close to buying their other piccolo guitars but always preferred nylon strings when it comes to acoustic shit. 48mm nut width baby!

    Ibanez 2024 NAMM

    Dude, that AZ 7 string single humbucker woulda been so effing cool. Always wanted the Munky signature Apex sunburst. Kinda in the same ballpark aesthetic.

    New Ibanez Pentatone Preamp Pedal

    Naw, I only use preamp pedals for fun. Never once used one live or for recording. Not that I couldn't, but I go into preamp pedals just as fun flavors. I have like 5-6 that are all top jack 125b's. Messes with my ocd. Overall if there was something crazy good I would certainly cave and buy a...

    New Ibanez Pentatone Preamp Pedal

    I can only speak for myself. But right about when this pedal released I decided that since we're so spoiled with guitar gear, I'd only be buying preamp pedals in top jack mounted 125b enclosure configuration. Which is crazy that I can be that picky and still have too many options to pick from...

    Boss IR-2 Amp Sim and IR Loader

    Yeah, I really love the idea, but! This year I bought a Boss ME-90 and the preamp section... Completely blows. Sounds horrid. Every single model. Tried running it various ways. All sucked. On the other hand, last year I bought a Boss Dual Cube LX. Keep it in my car for work jams. Not gonna...

    Limited Edition BOSS 50th Anniversary Pedals

    Well, on the off chance there IS a Boss employee in here somewhere... I want blacked out versions of the MD-2, XT-2, and DS-2. I know the hideous bright orange and red boxes are iconic for Boss distortions. But the 40th Anniversary DS-1 was done up in HM-2 color scheme. And that was the...

    Another Fortin Pedal, This Time It’s NATAS

    I do kinda wonder how long it'll take for PedalPCB clones to start showing up.

    Should we be playing through 10" instead of 12" speakers for metal?

    Whatever 10" speakers my JC40 uses are great. I find myself being able to roll back the treble and pull the bass up more than I'd normally EQ other amps and still get definition. Also owned one of those weird Quilter 2x8 cabs and that also sounded amazing. Definitely a preference thing though...

    Recommend me some good 2x12s

    Mojotone Imperial Slant 2x12 is pretty awesome. It's 24" wide so you have a bit more room for more heads. Also makes it like the vertical 212 equivalent of an OS cab. They usually come unloaded and I bought mine during a sale. For an unloaded cab at their usual price I think it's a bit...

    New Schecter Models Megathread

    Really interested in that triple coil pickup monstrosity. Should've gone balls out and given it 28 or 30 inch scale.

    212 with bass crossover?

    I took my Mojotone vertical 212 and slapped some 12" PA speakers in there. 600w rms a piece, down to 20Hz. What's crazy is when I play normal ass guitar through it, it sounds really good. If my Celestion K100 and Redback combo that was in there before was like a 9/10, then the PA combo would...

    Unlikely Gear That Ended Up Your Metal Secret Weapon!

    Well, I was supposed to keep this a secret until I started releasing my music. But it's looking like I'll die beforehand so... The EHX Steel Leather pedal. Pretty much the ultimate boost pedal of all time. If you need more clarity in your signal, nothing is more potent that this stupid SoB...

    GOC new guitar drop, a headless take of a classic!

    Ya know, for context, I was part of that preorder run in cahoots with Guitarmory pickups however many years ago that was... And I really want one of these. Personally more of an HS guy than HSS, but otherwise looks pretty awesome.

    What's the deal with Randall?

    Before I ended up selling it I was running my V2 into a Gen-Benz G-Flex 212 loaded with Celestion Pulse 12's as a bass amp. Was pretty phenomenal.
