January 25, 2010 | Posted by Billy Penn Another great amp by Steve Carr! 8 watts and sounds unreal. The Mercury amp uses a single EL34 tube and you can dial it down to 1/10th of a watt. Has reverb as well….!

January 25, 2010 | Posted by Billy Penn Besides the Ruokangs Unicorn I got to try Juha’s Duke model. This guitar is extremely lively and has a really nice archtop/acoustic quality to it. This Duke was very light and was very comfortable to play……maybe on eht most comfortable guitars I played at NAM. Another great guitar built by Juha Ruokangas!!

January 24, 2010 | Posted by Billy Penn I am checking out the ground-breaking, game changing Eminence FDM speakers for the first time.

January 23, 2010 | Posted by Billy Penn The Anthem guitars were cool with really good quality, sounded & felt great and priced right! The hardware on this guitar was like an aged bronze and I’ve never seen any hardware like it. These would make great second guitars or be excellent for beginners. Overseas quality is really getting good….!
