Some guitarists of a certain vintage will remember a multi-effects pedal from the days of yore, called a Zoom GFX707. It was cheap as anything, but for a lot of us, it was our first experience running our guitars through something before it hit the amp. We’ve moved onto higher-end gear, but there’s still a […]
While most multi-effects units are very much aimed at electric guitar players, some of the features in them would be a waste of time for a guitarist more focused on acoustic playing. A teeny, tiny market does exist for multi-effects processors for acoustic musicians, and it’s here that TC-Helicon’s Play Acoustic model resides. TC-Helicon is […]
T-Rex aren’t known for their multi-effects pedals at all. They’re better known as the creators of some very tasty sounding, but not very cheap stompboxes, as well as power supplies, pedalboards, and relevant cases. So, what do we make of them coming out with a multi-effects unit? Well, going off their existing reputation and positioning, […]
Line 6 have established themselves as a solid brand when it comes to effects. That actually feels like an understatement: they’re one of the top names, and they didn’t get there by making products people didn’t like. Their M series of products are intended to cram all of their previous multi-effects into one case, with […]
Digitech have a long-standing reputation as a quality brand when it comes to multi-effects units, and it’s rare that such reputations are baseless. Their RP360XP is their intermediate model, and it’s an impressive piece of kit. The number of features they have managed to cram into this little box is insane! Seriously, if they put a […]
BOSS are very much the standard for guitar effects pedals, both in terms of individual stompboxes and multi-effects processors. They’ve been dedicated to pedals for so long, a bad BOSS pedal isn’t really a thing. Reviews about BOSS pedals are never bad, they’re more of a list of reasons of why it’s a great, innovative […]
It’s always a joy to review BOSS pedals. Let’s face it, these guys are experts. If they start doing it wrong, what chance does any other manufacturer have? The GP-10 is one of their pricier models, but you know with BOSS that price is always relative. Sure you can check out their cheaper models, but […]
Yes, yes, I know – this is an INCREDIBLY pretty guitar! Look at it! Now, if you can roll your tongue back into your mouth, pick your jaw up off the floor, and wipe that drool from your chin, we can see if this baby is all looks, or if it’s got some substance. I’ll […]
Mayones are not the best known guitar brand in the USA. A Polish brand, started in 1982, they've been gaining some traction as a quality brand on the other side of the pond, over the past few years. As they are fairly squarely aimed at metal and hard rock, it's no surprise to see some […]
Ibanez originated in Japan, but throughout the years, they’ve had a large output of instruments from Indonesia and China. The Prestige range comes from its home country, and as such, is marketed with pride and, well… prestige! The RG range is what made Ibanez famous (after lawsuits), and it has retained a place amongst hair […]
