Seymour Duncan Black-outs! Powerful pick-ups.

Well, so far I've only been posting about bands, guitar players, or albums. But for once I'm going talk about something different. Guitar pick-ups. As a good pen is essential for a good writer, good pick-ups are also important for any guitar player. Well to start my rant on these pick-ups, they're active pick-ups witch means that they have a battery installed with the guitar so produce a powerful guitar sound. I have installed these pick-ups to one of my guitars already and I haven't regretted my decision ever since. But what to expect their Seymour Duncan, they never seem to fail any guitarist.
With such a sleek design and cool features these pick-ups are no joke. They deliver all of the tone that any guitarist can probably look for. And these pick-ups are even available for 7 string guitars. With impressive design and intense sound these pick-ups are a definite recommend for any guitarist.

Nevermore makes a comeback!

For this blog I decided to write about Nevermore's upcoming album "The Obsidian Conspiracy." Nevermore is not one of my top favorite bands but I'm going to give credit were credit is due. This band has been around since 1991 but didn't get signed to a major label till 1995. The band has released 6 albums with the upcoming album due to be released some in June 2010. To give a little bit of background info on the band, four amazingly talented musicians make up the progressive metal band from Seattle, Washington. Jeff Loomis on lead guitar, Warrel Dane on lead vocals, Jim Sheppard on bass guitar, and Van Willams on drums.
Nevermore's new album looks like in might put mainstream heavy metal artist Ozzy Osbourne's new album out of it's place with the title track "The Obsidian Conspiracy." Here's the song for preview, and I got to say its a killer. Too bad it's an instrumental, but I'm going to put up one of my favorite songs by the band so my followers can hear Warrel Dane's powerful vocals.

KRANK amps. 120 watts of pure tube tone!

What can I say about these amplifiers? I got four words: Strength Beyond Strength! These massive amps pack a punch of extreme tone that the inventors even surprised themselves. I am proud to be a owner of one of these powerful amps. What could I tell you about them. The amps has two channels one clean tone channel, and one distortion channel with a two volume knobs. The distortion channel has a 3-band equalization with a sweep channel, and a master presence channel for added fun.
