Re: Guild Polara - anyone played one?
Played a Polara recently actually, a friend bought one to replace a Gibson SG that got broken and I really liked it for the money paid. Guild "came back" after Fender sold them off again a few years back, and they've done reissues of their most popular models pretty consistently since, I t...

Re: Incoming NKD x2
A while back I was considering the Hydrasynth, but I ended up trading in a trunkload of gear for a Summit and a Digitone Keys. I'll probably always be curious about the Hyrda though. Is the Digitone a good groovebox? I've been looking at the Syntakt instead but I haven't actually tried any Elektron...

Re: Vintage REVO Series ie: Alan Entwistle JUST CAN'T STOP
Ah, okay, they're "Astrosonics" which are baaaaasically Burns Tri-Sonics, I think. But since he had/has(?) a relationship with Burns (he designed and made their pickups, at least before Andertons bought them) he can't just hock regular-looking Tri-Sonics, I suppose because that would be na...

Re: Vintage REVO Series ie: Alan Entwistle JUST CAN'T STOP
ALSO can I just say that, as much as I'm loving the current "mash up" culture that is a big deal right now, taking elements of very different models and slapping them all together, I'm not digging the fact that that trend has occurred in the midst of another trend, the one where companies ...

Vintage REVO Series ie: Alan Entwistle JUST CAN'T STOP
F8y8zjpWUAEyodQ.jpg As far as I can see, most of these will be around the £600 mark which is potentially too rich for some when there are more "famous" options on the market, but what makes these a bit different is the electronics. Of particular interest to me is the four pickup Jaguar (A...

Re: New Behringer synths
Okay, so this is interesting. Apparently it was announced a while back but I don't think I covered it. It's fairly obviously Behringer looking to compete directly with the Arturia Microfreak, which I'd say has quickly taken the all-purpose wacky but infinitely useful synth crown from the Microkorg. ...

Bringing it all right back to the very first synth posted in this thread..... The Pro VS is now firing out of the Behringer factory, ready to order, with demo vids to accompany it. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3MRs0U81XSo&ab_channel=Behringer I honestly wasn't too interested in a vector synth ...

Re: What is your oddball color choice to go with a mint green pickguard?
My candy apple red Burns Batwing came with a mint pickguard. Always thought that was kind of an odd choice, personally, and I don't really like mint green at all (gloss white, gloss black or NOTHING) but I love that guitar so...

Re: RIP Swinger Project (now with more Duo-Sonic!)
Aw shit. I've been there, plops. It's gutting for something to go wrong after so much work beforehand. Takes me a while to get over a catastrophic failure like that but after some time and distance you can sometimes come back to it either with a strong idea of how to fix it, or with the motivation t...

Re: Josh Scott's pedal collection
I fucking hope so. I've always been deeply disappointed by other guitarists, I'd say around 99% of them are massively stupid bastards. Sure, we've all laughed at TDPRI idiots spending £500 on some boutique pedal that is basically just a modified Fuzz Face circuit or something. They're idiots. If the...

Re: Rapier Guitars, ie: Alan Entwistle is at it again.
Yeah, I'm referring more to that US trade embargo period where all British guitar companies really needed to do was cover a Stratocaster-shaped gap and yet, some enterprising designers thought "I know, I'll make the pickups oversized and make the covers out of metal, cut the pickguard up into b...

So, Burns is still out for the count since its purchase by Andertons guitars. They've said that it is coming back SOON (SOOOOOOOOON!) but there appears to be no real word on that at this point. And as if by magic... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_hOhMwSYB74 Although looks like these are something ...

Oh, and they're being distributed by JHS.
No, not the pedal maker. The real JHS: John Hornby Skewes.
