The Most Versatile Electric Guitar on Earth!
The Fender VG Stratocaster
 |
Fender
and Roland team up once again to bring you the revolutionary new VG
Stratocaster guitar. It's an incredibly versatile instrument that
gives you 37 different Stratocaster, Telecaster, humbucking, 12-string
and acoustic sounds, plus five alternate tunings, all at the simple
flip of a switch or twist of a knob. It all comes in the gracefully
familiar form of an American Series Stratocaster, and it's designed
to deliver each sound with level, balanced tone and volume; no need
to re-adjust your amp settings with each change in guitar sound. It's
a classic Strat in every sense of the word, with a lot of extra magic.

VG Stratocaster website. |
Rivera
- The Definition of Tone
The Rivera Knucklehead Series
 |
Rivera called upon bands like Korn, Staind, Coal Chamber, Slipknot, POD, Creed, Dry Kill Logic, 311, Pennywise, and 40 Below Summer for input and feedback when developing and refining the Knucklehead Series. Lead/Crunch Channels include 3 bands of interactive passive tone controls. A Pull Scoop switch exists to deepen the midrange notch, and a Pull Bottom works for adding gobs of fatness on the low strings. For the Rhythm and Blues channel, 3 bands of equalization along with a Pull Bright Switch, and a Midrange Pull Notch switch, give a choice of British/Tweed or American Blackface tones. 6 footswitchable and distinct tones are easily accessible. Footswitchable functions are actuated with soft-touch momentary contact switches (especially quiet for studio recordings). Like all Rivera amps, the LED indicators on the front or rear panels correspond with the LED indicators on the Footswitch. Click here to read more about them, but come in, plug in, and turn it up! |
The
Fender American Vintage 1957
Commemorative Stratocasters
 |
To
celebrate the iconic '57 turning the big 5-O, Fender is offering a
special edition of this classic reissue in a popular old cosmetic,
white blonde with gold hardware. These also include a special neckplate,
and will only be produced in 2007. Although the Strat officially debuted
in 1954 (ash body, U shaped neck), the year 1957 is important, as
this is the year that the specs all came together (alder body, V shape
neck), making the guitar what we know and love today. Click

They're Here, the Gibson Les Paul Menace and SG Menace!
Brute
force and raw power. With take-no-prisoners looks and face-melting
tone, the Les Paul Menace delivers over-the-top metal performance
like no other. For those who like a bit more mid-tone and screaming
highs, give the SG Menace a test drive. Both models are in stock and
are not for the faint of heart. Click
here to go directly to the Gibson site for more information
and specifications on the Les Paul Menace; click

Bob
Taylor does it again! Come in and try our new
Taylor GA, GC GS and DN Acoustic Guitars!
Introduced
in 2006, the GS is an original design from top to bottom, and the
first new Taylor shape in over a decade. It was a hit right out of
the gate. Expect acoustic power with every note, with deep, piano-like
bass, rich mids and clear, balanced highs and plenty of volume. While
adding pickup availability to his GS series, Bob has taken this technology
to his new GC, GS, DN. _It’s a
whole new flavor of Taylor tone. _Click

Yamaha
DTXPRESS breaks price and
quality barriers! starting at $999.99
Imagine, practice drums anywhere, in your house, apartment, and nobody will hear you. Play any venue and control the stage volume. Any sound-man, regardless of their experience, can achieve studio perfection on a live stage without using mics. Like other electronic devices, quality and features keep going up, while prices continue to drop. This has caused a revolution in Yamaha's digital drum market. Ten years ago, digital drums were a mere 10% of Yamaha's drum sales; as of Dec 2006, digital drums made up 50%. That's HALF of all Yamaha drums sold being digital! Part of this revolution is due to the success of the DTXPLORER kit. Years ago we would have only dreamed of a kit like this at any price, now, a kid who works a part time job could even afford one!
