Epiphone Les Paul Standard Plus "Cherry Sunburst"

La mia chitarra


www.electricguitarplanet.com
The Les Paul guitar is synonymous with Rock and Roll. No other guitar gives you the power, the sustain and the sound of a Les Paul. If it’s got Les Paul’s signature on the headstock, it’s the real thing… 
Feature:
This guitar has everything you need. A full stack of tone and volume controls, dual humbuckers, a set neck and an extremely nice finish. Looks awesome!!
For the price range, the cosmetics are very nice; the color and texture of the cherry flame finish looks really cool! The pickups are factory stock Gibson PAF’s and they sound great; I’d never replace them unless they went out. You would tested both pickups on an output meter and they were “hot”, peaking at 15; that’s pretty good (and loud) for stock pickups!
Quality:
The quality of the electronics can be improved on this guitar to level it with competition.
Sounds like a much more expensive guitar. Very clean when distortion is off, sounds really great when heavy distortion is on. Great with effects, sounds better than indie’s,  rock, fenders.
Sound:
It sounds pretty good right out of the box, but the suggestion may you would strongly replacing the strings and taking it for a professional setup, it makes a big difference. The wood is great, and you can get good tone from it, there are better Les Paul, with better wood and pickups for more money, but this should satisfy all players who don’t have extra money to throw around. Your guitar teacher will very impress with this guitar.
Value:
Best guitar on the market for the money.  Well worth the price compared to Gibson Les Paul.
Desirability:
Everyone who sees this baby wants to pick up and play it. Cause this is beautiful color (Wine Red), excellent finish.
Ease of Use:
This guitar is very playable it has a great action on it and the neck is perfect. It’s easy to get great sounds. But for beginners so a little hard work because once you’ve tried this you can’t adapt to crappy guitars.
Overall:
Great guitar, good price, nice craftsmanship, good sound, good looks, and for having fun!!! Playing in a band a little more serious about your music get the real Epiphone Les Pauls sound good look good can’t go wrong with them!

Blackheart Handsome Devil Combo 15W

Il mio ampli per chitarra.


Designed and prototyped in a one car garage in Austin, Texas, by non other than amp savant, Pyotr Belov, the Handsome Devil evokes classic tube tones more than reminiscent of the great American and British, plug and play workhorses that laid the foundation for Rock and Roll guitar tone starting in the '60s. Just like it's predecessor and little brother, the Little Giant 5, the BHE Handsome Devil is overbuilt to last with features and components you'd expect on a hand built, much more expensive piece of gear. Both the head and combo feature dual power modes allowing the Gods of Rock to dial in responsiveness and headroom in either 15W or 7W output. Separate Master and Level controls put both awesome power and responsibility in the unwashed hands of mankind. 3 Bands of well-tuned EQ make for nearly infinite voicing. From big fat overdrive to plucky, just-about-to-squeal if you hit me a little harder grease, the Handsome Devil covers classic tube tone with as few knob turns as possible through a well thought out set of features in a tough as a tank package.

  • 15 Watts, Push-Pull, Class A
  • Outputs: 1 x 16 ohm jack, 2 x 8 ohm jacks, 2 x 4 ohm jacks

Machete

Machete è un film del 2010 diretto da Robert Rodriguez, interpretato da Danny Trejo e Robert De Niro.


Questo film è lo sviluppo del finto trailer presente nei primi minuti del film Grindhouse - Planet Terror dello stesso Rodriguez. Il personaggio di Machete è inoltre simile al personaggio di Zio Machete (interpretato dallo stesso Trejo) presente nel film Spy Kids di Robert Rodriguez.
