Emperador ES-335 Replica - "I play my E-200 twice as much as my 3k$ 335’s"
Don’t listen to the guy saying you can’t compare it to a 335. A guitar is only as good as it feels and sounds and is a personal preference. I own three 335’s and one E-200. Sure, it’s a copy, has a b…
PG Music Band in a Box 2021 - "Fantastic new styles and worthy upgrades in this version"

PreSonus Studio 24c - "Easy to use, install and with excellent sound/dependability & $1000 worth of software"
Well, I was using the Stealth Pedal (IK Multimedia) as an interface, and then it no longer was supported. Then I turned to the Line 6 Tone Port UX8, and although those drivers worked (in Windows 10),…
Gibson Les Paul Custom Studio - "A bang for the buck"
Gibson Les Paul Custom Studio 2017 model in denim blue. I bought this guitar with the whole world being in a pandemia, so it is more difficult to try it before buying but there are enough stuff on y…
Kali Audio IN-8 - "The Best Monitor Speakers for the Money... and then Some!"

M-Audio KeyStudio 49 - "Not fancy, but it works, and works well."
I've owned this for a number of years, and use it primarily for testing these days as I have other controllers and keyboards for regular use. It's a fully USB class-compliant device, so it works out-…
nUX Duotime (NDD-6) - "Amazingly clear and vibrant delay with dual engines"

reFX Nexus 2 - "Sounds good, but..."
Used it for several tracks. It definitely sounds good, but if you're a sound designer, sadly it's not a tool for you. I had occasional CPU spikes. Maybe that was because of my laptop. Anyways, I love…
nUX Fireman (NDS-5) - "Amp-Like Distortion with Dual Channels"
Some distortions are warm, others are fat, and still others are chewy. The Fireman Distortion was meant to sizzle and cut through the mix. The grain is fine to medium overall, but the two channels do…
