Geordie's guitar pick of the week.
2003 Rickenbacker 360.
MI USA. Great condition with some slight buckle rash and player wear. High gain pick ups. All original. With "knocked around" original hardcase.
$2900 Aus.
Before working here I'd never tried a Rickenbacker. I mean they look cool, but they were used by bands like the Beatles and the Byrds! Then bands like Midnight Oil, Fugazi and Mark of Cain used them, and .......... well, much cooler bands. I tried this one out and , holy shit. These things are awesome. They bite like a cut snake and have heaps of great tone. Very nice through an old Marshall. I now see what all the fuss is about. Fantastic quality, looks to kill for, great sound and NOT a Strat.
Geordie's pedal pick of the week.
The Ronsound Hairpie is one of THE best Bigmuff clones on the market, and is THE best value for money by far. This is one hell of a Bigmuff. Smooth, creamy, sustainy (is that a word?) At $160 it's much cheaper than a genuine EH reissue, and sounds 10 times better (well, if you can mathematically work out how much better it actually sounds) Seriously, these are well worth the money if you're after a BigMuff.
The Hairpie Classic and '75 are in stock now at the retail shop.
ALL SOLD OUT in 12hours
More coming soon
