Monster Cable Studio Pro SP-1000 & Monster Rock Guitar Cables review
I hope you like Hi-Tech reviews, because this one is. After more than 10 years of dealing with all sorts of studio gear, Hi-Tech stuff is still my favorite topic of exploration. My first acquaintance with Monster Cable Studio Pro took place at the sound madness of the NAMM show where I played. I was struck and could not believe my ears. Technological solutions involved in the design of this cable got me even more interested so I decided to run a simple test in the studio.
StrapGraphics.com: Custom guitar straps review
Want to know where I got this cool branded JULYSHREDDER guitar strap, don’t you? Cool, isn’t it? Being an indie musician and photographer, I’ve been using custom merchandise services for a while. But non of them, even music oriented, offered guitar straps.
So here is the one: Strap Graphics! Express yourself with a design to match your style or make a smart promo item with your logo/website which will look great onstage and in the videos!
LAG GLV-S1000-SF review
Here is the first review! I am happy and honored!
I never really choose guitars, guitars choose me. It had happened with all the instruments I have. And it happened again when I least expected it, when I was back in Moscow, working on the new album tracks, and far from a “purchasing mode”.
I had been looking for a 7-string guitar for a while, but for some reason non of the instruments I happened to check had all the features I needed: either the wood / sound character was not the one I wanted, or a fixed bridge instead of Floyd Rose, or 22-24 frets only and so on. Of course, there is always an option of ordering a Custom instrument, but it only makes sense when you exactly know all the specs you want – that wasn’t my case, I was still on the experimenting stage.
And suddenly I see a guitar that has it all. In fact, it was more like a gut feeling, an instinct, even before I picked it to have a closer look. Beautiful design and right features have come together as if by magic. Mahogany body with flame maple top, very comfortable neck (maple with ebony fingerboard), reversed headstock, 7 strings (10-46+60), 27 frets (18-27 – scalloped), Floyd Rose, two humbuckers with coil splitting push-switch.
