Elixir Phosphor Bronze Acoustic Strings Review I have to admit since I bought my last acoustic (Taylor DN3) I enjoy playing acoustic way more than electric. Different world. No electronics, cables, sound processors, just real wood instrument and whatever you can come out of it. The only thing that annoyed me were very fast wearing [...]

I have to admit, we live in awesome times for creative individuals. All the gear is easy to access, however most importantly there’s a lot of free software that’s changed how recording looks these days. You don’t need to spend thousands of dollars to get great sound quality straight from your computer without breaking a [...]

I have to say I’m lucky to be the owner of Wizard ARD amplifier, designed for artists like: Angus Young or Malcolm Young! It’s simple, classy looking 50 watt, EL34 powered single channel head. I usually cross-patch two circuits so the sound is really fat and works great with any pedals. There’s no reverb or [...]

TAYLOR DN3 REVIEW & SOUND TEST I’ve had really good response from my old youtube Taylor DN3 sound test that I thought this guitar deserves a post.

I’ve been using Amplitube 2 for some time and it’s a really handy peace of software if you want decent sounding guitar on the go. Some of the sounds are really great, the [...]

K&K Acoustic Guitar Pickup Review Today post about something I should have done with my Taylor DN3 long time ago: install an acoustic guitar pickup as I always loved beautiful, rich acoustic tone for live gigs. My first guess (without asking anyone) was to find something portable that I can use live then take it [...]

Roger Mayer Octavia is a very simple technological construction, what we have are few functional blocks including: filter, generator and frequency doubler. Despite its simplicity Octavia’s scheme it’s not easy to tune in order to get same as Roger Mayer’s version satisfying sound. I know of few guys who were trying to build this fairly [...]

As we all know finding “your” sounds is the most time & money consuming process, however I found very important finding the sound you feel comfortable, inspiring with. Through all the years of playing I tested lots of gear from old classic to nowadays modern amps and finally got my “sound” I’m happy with – [...]
