Reading material

It's pretty obvious that I'm a Gibson SG fan, and as soon as I saw this book coming out I had to have it. The best thing about it it's that it's new... so you'll find up to date info  and... Continue Reading →

MXR Dyna Comp

Review of a classic... this pedal has been around for ages, more precisely it was released in the 70s and according to Wikipedia it instantly became a "Nashville Standard" I've only had this pedal for 6 months or so, so... Continue Reading →

Ohhhh the pick!

1989 Eric Clapton Fender Stratocaster.

Apart from the Gibson SG (of course) this is probably my favourite guitar. Eric Clapton used this exact model on his tour around the late 80s. The main difference with a normal Stratocaster is the pickups and the wiring, it... Continue Reading →

1971 Gibson SG Standard

Iconic guitar and of course my favourite. This is not just a great example of Gibson's craftsmanship but it is also Angus Young's first SG, featuring the addition of the volute to the headstock and the "made in USA" stamp,... Continue Reading →
