| Greetings!
Just got back from another cool trip to UK last month
revolving around NELSONICA '07. Details below... New
this month Joey is back with Getting Your Own Sound, Don Mackrill helps clear up his biased opinion about amps and Michael Wright introduces another guitar that get's no respect.
People have been asking us to do this for years and
we finally have - the Sidejack BARITONE DLX, featuring the BURNS tremolo.
Imagine a BARITONE guitar with a tremolo, the possibilities
are endless!. We have also added some new LEFTY
models, and optional BIGBSY's to some Eastwood
Guitars - like the TUXEDO - check out the details below.
REMINDER: Hey,
got a CD and want to get some AIRPLAY? Thayrone has put
the CALL OUT!

Hello my friends in guitar land. The most frequent question
I receive from my fellow guitar players is how do I get my own
sound. First, I would like to say that in my opinion a
signature sound comes from your hands not from your gear. And
also from a picture you have in your mind of what you want
your "voice" to convey. But...

Some guitars combine fascinating stories about both their
creation and acquisition, and this 1979 Gretsch TK 300 Model
No. 7624 is one of those guitars! It was conceived during what
many vintage Gretsch enthusiasts consider to be the low point
in Gretsch history. It was purchased during one of the great
guitar adventures of my career! But, is it any good?

NEW model with BURNS TREMOLO!
It's finally here. After four years of requests, we have
added the DLX model to the SIDEJACK Baritone. This thing is
a monster! Now you can add some dive bombs to your
Baritone voice. It is a wonderful sonic experience. For under
$450, a nice tool to add to your home recording studio.

The power amp section of a guitar amp is comprised of the
amp's 'big' tubes and the output transformer. By big tubes I
mean those that are typically referred to when describing an
amp such as EL84s, 6V6s, EL34s and so on. This month we'll
look at how they are typically configured, how they are
"biased" and, most importantly, how those characteristics
affect an amp's tone and feel.

Every year we re-run this article. For some it states the
obvious, but we ALL need to be reminded about these simple
rules. If you follow them, your next jam session, recording
project or stage show will simply be better than the
last.

Why is the newsletter a few days late again this
month? Well, just got back from a whirlwind trip to United
Kingdom. We saw a bunch of live shows, interviewed a bunch of
guitar celebrities, photographed some players for upcoming
advertisements and generally met some of the nicest people in
the business. I'll need another month to get the video
interviews together, etc, but here is a quick summary of the
trip....
