Classical Guitar Ibanez G850

The Ibanez G850 classical guitar is an all solid wood guitar that features solid mahogany back and sides, and a solid cedar top. New Spanish joint construction offers greater stability, sustain and overall resonance. The bridge and fingerboard are ebony, and the nut is Ivorex II.

Ivorex II nuts are stronger and more durable than bone and even harder than the original Ivorex. Ivorex II allows brilliant highs and more pronounced lows with less mid-range which makes Ivorex II-fitted guitars perfect for amplification.

Peavey Tour 700 and Tour 450 Bass Heads

The Peavey Tour Series 700 and 450 bass amplifier heads, are a pair of high-powered workhorses featuring highly specialized EQ, built-in octave synth/divider, direct out with phantom power backup and patented SmartRail technology.

Tour Series bass amplifier heads offer extensive tone shaping through a nine-band graphic equalization configured so its frequency bands are spaced on “musical” frequencies. Peavey engineers adjusted the EQ centers so users can bring better definition to the low frequencies with ease. These amps also include a Peavey-exclusive analog octave synth/divider with level control and footswitchable bypass that adds an extra note one octave lower than the original n0te, creating textures and enriching the bottom end.

In addition, the XLR-equipped direct out allows traditional patching to a front-of-house or studio mixer, but features fail safe phantom power backup that will send a flat signal through the house P.A. or studio console.

Ibanez Guitars - Acoustic Exotic Wood Guitars

What makes a true work of art? The beauty of the craftsmanship? The detail of the lines and curves? The subtlety of the color and hue? Probably all of the above, but the most important aspect is that connection with an audience, the spark that speeds up the heartbeat and ignites the imagination. You won’t find anything quite like the Ibanez Exotic Wood acoustic guitars, even among guitars that are much more expensive.

The Exotic wood Ibanez acoustic guitars look beautiful enough for gallery display and yet are ready for any type of gig. Now, that’s an artistic accomplishment. The junior member of the Exotic Wood family, the EWC features a body that's smaller and shallower than the original EWs. The new EWC30ASE features a quilted ash top and the EWC30PDE’s padauk top is finished in resonant low gloss.

Fender G-DEC Guitar Amp Wins Award

The Music Trades magazine has awarded Fender its coveted “Product of the Year” for the company’s G-DEC amplifier, as announced in the April 2006 issue.

The Fender G-DEC (Guitar Digital Entertainment Center) is Fender’s wildly successful new guitar amplifier that features digital reproductions of various amps and effects, plus onboard drum loops, bass lines and many other features that represent a quantum leap forward in the technology of learning and practicing the guitar.

According to Music Trades, selecting the Product of the Year “has often been a difficult task, given the number of creative minds at work within our business.”

“This year however, you made it relatively simple. In terms of impact, Fender’s creation of the G-DEC is momentous and a logical choice for Product of the Year. We feel that one of our roles as a trade paper is to honor those who have enriched the industry. So it is a pleasure to be able to accord a small tribute to a product that has fostered the creative process and provided a source of profit to retailers.”

The G-DEC joins an impressive list of Music Trades Product of the Year winners. Last year, for example, the award went to the popular GarageBand™ home recording software system by Apple Computers Inc.

“When we consider the company we are in and the other fine products that have previously won this award, we can only say that we are honored to be held in such high esteem,” said Shane Nicholas, marketing manager for Fender amplifiers. “We owe thanks to everyone involved, including our design team, our dealers and, of course, the huge number of guitarists around the world who have made the G-DEC the success that it is.”

Fender Guitars

In 1951 Leo Fender introduced a prototype solid-body guitar that would eventually be called the Fender Telecaster guitar. The Fender Tele, as it was often called then and still is today, was the first solid-body Spanish-style electric guitar to be commercially mass-produced. As a result of this humble beginning, Fender guitars are one of the most popular brands in the world today.

The Fender Stratocaster first appeared in 1954, and incorporated many design innovations based on feedback from professional musicians, Fender staff and Leo Fender himself. The Strat's third single-coil pickup offered more tonal possibilities than the two on the Tele, and its sleekly contoured body made it more comfortable. The double cutaway design of the Stratocaster made access to upper registers much easier.

Nobody could have foreseen then how the Fender Stratocaster would go on to revolutionize popular music. Essentially unchanged since its 1954 debut, the Strat is the most popular and influential Fender electric guitar ever, and players at all levels and in all genres continue to rely on its sound, playability and versatility to this day.
