SKB Acoustic Case Shaped Hardshell, Standard Latches, Handle Review

SKB Acoustic Case Shaped Hardshell, Standard Latches, Handle

I ordered this case anticipating taking my Guild GAD 40C on vacation this summer. It is a well made case, pretty lightweight, with very positive latching. The storage compartment holds a good deal of gear. I've read numerous reviews complaining that the case is a bit too spacious for a variety of dreads, and I found this to be true for my dread, as well. The simple solution was to take a thick pair of wool ski socks, roll them up and stuff them into the space between the upper bout and the side of the case. Worked like a charm. I haven't taken my trip yet but my poking, prodding, and leaning on the case have me convinced that, short of flinging it under a moving bus, it should hold up nicely.

Pignose 7-100 Legendary portable amplifier Review

Once, many years when lunch was half a loaf of fresh bread (baguette or ficelle) and a bottle of white wine, I lived in Paris (France) and my entire income was derived from playing a beaten up Strat (I wish I still had that guitar!) through a Pignose in the Metro. The sound was perfect, the subway provided georgeous reverb, and the tone was thrilling. I played well enough that the cops didn't move me on too much, and the skinheads that surrounded me, despite my fears as I was a long-haired hippie in those halcyon days, loved my my extended version of "red house" - I dragged it out to nine or ten minutes expecting to be beaten up at the end! They over-tipped and and cheered like a football (ok soccer) crowd. Here's the secret with pignose amps, you can create all sorts of different tones by opening and closing the door at different angles, and how the speaker is pointed is crucial in a reverberent room - or hall. Sadly I have a real job now, but still play - with a much larger and more expensive amp! http://beesdeluxe.com

This is the one that started it all more than 35 years ago. The powerful little Pignose, with that distinctively funky Pignose sound, has been on call in countless recording studios, rehersal halls, dressing rooms, dorm rooms and backyards around the world since the rockin' sixties. The ultimate portable amplifier. Get tones from clean to pig-filthy with the turn of the coolest volume knob in the world.
