Pearl OD-05 Over Drive - "Excellent versatile od pedal"
Bought this new back in the day, it was my first drive pedal and I’ve been using it up to this day. The od5 is part of Pearl’s short lived attempt into guitar pedals but it’s a very fine pedal nevert…
Zoom 505 Guitar - "A bang for the buck"
At the time, Gibson e347, Peavey 100w transtube, 2 505 in serial connection. In my opinion you can't beat that effect. I used it professionally in NY for years.I play Jazz Brazil Funk stuff. I had 2…
Night Owl Industries Edison Preamp - "Easy to Use with an Improvement in Sound"
SOUND: As a stand-alone preamp, the Edison is very clear, yet full-bodied. When hooking it up to an Axe-Fx II (with Marshall cab simulation), the first thing I noticed is how ‘amp-like’ the sound w…
Takamine F360 - "Takamine F360S Dreadnought: "Something to look for?""
This dreadnought already served me for quite a long time. Both in chordwork (strumming) as in soloing work. Before adding a lot of stars I have to say that I owe a genuine Martin D35 and besides t…
Mooer Ocean Machine - "Incredible Sound Scapes is only the beginning"
SOUND: Although you can use this reverb + dual delay in a very subtle way (a bit of reverb or delay) you will be addicted to hours of play and experimentation as you turn up the mix and mess around …
JBL L19 - "A JBL "Sleeper" Classic"
I recently acquired a pair of these and refurbished them. Both tweeters were dead and the woofers required new surrounds and dust caps. The LE26 tweeters are now discontinued, and rebuild kits are al…
Studio Electronics SE-1 - "Very nice sounding synth"
I got this in a deal and wasn't expecting too much, but pleasantly surprised. Rather than a newbie buying a Behringer or Korg, I'd rate these higher. Good build quality and a classic sound. Won't rep…
Epiphone Korina Flying V 7-String - "This is it."
One of the finest instruments to come out of asia. Once setup, this super rare 7 string korean V sets the standard among my US and FujiGen 7 string collection in overall playability. Once the p'ups w…

Yamaha ERG121 - "Still have it after 15 years."
This was my first guitar and I still love it. I've been playing off and on (mostly off) for 15 years. I would never sell it. Not only because of nostalgia but because it's basically a great beginne…
Keeley Electronics Aria Compressor Drive - "Natural Compression with Biting Drive"
SOUND: There are two things that comprise the Keeley Aria. First, the Compressor side of the pedal is one of the best available. Keeley Electronics is known for its compressor and I suspect becaus…
Kawai KG2E - "Very stable, well made"
My Kawai KG3E was made in 1990. I traded in my Kawai KG1E for this piano along with a cash differential to move from a 5' 4" instrument to a 6' 1" instrument. First, I live in a large city and visite…
Fender CD-60 [2006-2010] - "One Of The Best Guitars You Can Get"
The Fender CD-60 is definitely one of the best acoustic guitars you can get, and that's with a very good price. What i liked the most about it is that it can be played by both beginners and professio…
Myriad Harmony Assistant - "Service online"
Use a Mac. Music writing so-so, extensive manual and videos. Online help if problem encountered is abysmal. Recently asked if doing something wrong or was software issue in importing a file of dif…
Rozini Brazilian Cavaquinho Estudent - "Real Brazilian student Cavaco"
The Cavaco itself has a much thinner more Mandolin type neck than my other Cavaquinhos but the body is much bigger. The Soundboard is pine with that lovely pine lumber yard smell. With the steel stri…
