There was a buzz this week in the effects world, and not a good one. On Memorial Day, Andrew Richardson of ZVEX went missing. Zachary Vex put out an alert on social media and it spread across a lot of the industry outlets and forums. Things immediately did not look good. Sadly, he was found […]

Rantings and ravings from the peanut gallery.
It’s officially the offseason for basketball and football here in the States. And it’s the time of year where baseball teams start talking about acquiring someone to push for a title. Basically, there’s a whole lot of sportball dorks going on and on about what-if stories to make their favorite team better. There are 24-7 […]
There are things that I feel must be done right. My coffee has to be just the right water temperature and extraction time. A good steak has to be aged just a certain way and seasoned without much fuss. My guitar has to be intonnated properly and it better play exactly how I expect. Other […]

Hey folks – we’ve been pretty quiet here lately. There’s a good reason for it. Over the past several weeks we’ve been talking to a lot of big wigs at other companies about the popularity of this site. The world has taken notice. And after a lot of difficult discussions, we’ve decided…
I love Jay like a play cousin, but sometimes I think he’s wrong. Today we reject melody and/or give the bassist some.

This was a perfect scenario as we were after their services as well and they seemed to be realistic and open-minded fellows. (not once did they talk about being pros, or touring, or making […]
I haven’t had all my guitars in the same space for a while, but I had to move them together for some construction work in the basement. Once I did this, I was a tad dismayed by the sight. They’re basically, all orange.1 Orange is generally my favorite color, or at least close to the […]
