Winter NAMM 2014
« on: January 23, 2014, 05:31:55 PM »
Alright, so IŽll just be the one who starts this one this time.

What have you seen that you like? What is so stupid it is worth pointing out? Basecally everything NAMM!

Personally I actually find myself interested in the new Ernie Ball strings, the bronce aluminium ones designed with Andy Mckee. Not a Balls fan at all, but I love Andy Mckee and they could be different.

For the rest I have to catch up again.

Cheers!

There's lots of cool stuff popping up on my FB news feed from Electrical Guitar Company, Morgan, JHS Pedals, EQDevices but nothing in particular. The RG9 string looks daft.

Those Aristides are those carbon or something ones, right? I am not sure about the look of them, kinda seem pretty 80s for me, and not in the cool over the top way....

That Orange amp looks very interesting. I have Orange Dual Terror myself, just wondering how that Channel A will sound like. Getting excited  :lol: :lol:

Dual Darks definitely look cool.. I'd like a lower wattage option. 25/50 is a bit loud to be usable at home for me.

I'm intrigued by the Line 6 Amp/Bluetooth speaker thing.. Never been tempted by Line 6 stuff before, but I might need to try this out!.. The only trouble with these 'all in one' solutions is, they are never quite good enough to get rid of all the other shite so You just end up with another 'thing'..!!

On a more pricey tip, the missus is getting a new MacBook Pro soon, so I'm looking at stuff like this:

Could potentially record a whole band with minimal equipment.. a bunch of mikes, obviously!

Aaaaaand... a new  bong is always good!!  PDT_030 :

I'm really stoked about the PRS SE Zach Myers semi hollow. Don't know who the dude is, but the guitar looks outstanding  8)

I like that colour on the PRS Zach Myers. Looks sharper than the Friedman model.

New Reverend-models are a little twist on the current line. Nothing spectacular

For the handwired addicted: New Marshalls. Saw also Satriani has a signature JVM410.

Some of interesting pedals, b.e. EHX Slammi

Overall I didn't anything see much stuff that made my heart beat faster.

the dual dark terror is calling my name... the dark terror blew me away when i tried it. just needed more power. depending on the price, i may try to convince my friend to buy my 5150 so i can get one of these haha

I haven't seen anything yet to get the GAS going.... maybe some Fender Custom Shop stuff, but in that case it's individual, one-of-a-kind guitars which are of interest, not "what's new this year".
BKPs I've Got:  RR, BKP-91, ITs, VHII, CS set, Emeralds

Those weird "personality cards" that "rewire" the new Delux Strat+ just seem like change for change's sake and I bet they don't stick around long.

Shame coz it's a nice guitar otherwise..  :?

just watched the video.  it is an interesting idea, but i agree, it'll probably quietly disappear after a year or two.

like the fender guy, i never learnt to "sodder" :)
