Choosing A

guitars

Guitar Choosing a guitar is all about tone and feel. It sounds simple, but the modern guitar is a marvel of symbiotic relationships combining the elements of fine wood crafting, electronics, ergonomics, physics, and aesthetics — all lending their share of unique characteristics to produce an intangible — a vibe, if you will. That vibe goes hand-in-hand with musical style and genre. Here are some of the basics to consider when purchasing a guitar.

Body Style: Electric guitars come in three basic body styles: solidbody, semi-hollow (or semi-solid), and hollow. Acoustic guitar body styles range from the smaller parlor, terz, and orchestra, to the larger dreadnought, jumbo, and super jumbo, and more.

Tonewoods: For electric guitars, it’s common to see alder, ash, maple, mahogany, koa, and basswood bodies. Acoustic guitars usually feature spruce tops, with either mahogany or rosewood back and sides. However, it isn’t uncommon to see maple, koa, and cedar as well. Tonewood selection is a determining factor in the creation of a very special guitar.

Pickups: Single-coil pickups have a bright, clean, transparent sound, and are very common in rock, country, and pop. The warm, smooth, double-coil or humbucking sound is a favorite for rock, blues, pop, and jazz. Piezo pickups provide more of the “woody” or “acoustic” tone of the guitar.

Beyond the basics: In an effort to improve the playing experience, luthiers have added refinements and innovations such as 24 frets, locking tuners and tremolo/vibrato systems, adjustable stoptail bridges, various neck-shapes, and even USB ports.

Amplifiers and Effects: As essential to vibe as the guitar itself, an amp’s tone and feel is determined by circuit design, which includes tube, solid-state, tube/solid-state hybrids, and even modeling amps. Guitar effects come in a wide variety, which generally follow four basic themes: distortion, dynamics, reverb/delay, and pitch modulation.

Accessories: No guitar is complete without accessories, including strings, picks, straps, polish, stands, tuners, capos, cables, and more. Of course, with the myriad accessories available, there is none more essential than a good case to protect your instrument at home and away.

Why buy a guitar from Sweetwater? Our Sales Engineers know guitars! Many are guitarists with extensive collections, and all of them receive intense training direct from the manufacturers. There’s a reason Gibson named us a Preferred Online Dealer and C.F. Martin chose Sweetwater to host the very last public showing of their priceless one-millionth guitar — we’ve inspired their trust. We honor that trust by earning yours! For even more guitars, buying guides, videos, educational pages, and our exclusive Guitar Gallery, check out our award-winning site, www.sweetwater.com.

Electric Guitars THE SWEETWATER DIFFERENCE — EXPERIENCE IT TODAY!

You could make the case that Fender® electric guitars were responsible — at least in great part — for the sound of modern rock ‘n’ roll. Leo Fender’s masterpieces, which include classics like the Stratocaster®, the Telecaster®, and the original Precision Bass® were at the core of a musical revolution that spawned everything from surf to country to punk! No other guitar manufacturer can match Fender for the sheer number of available color, wood, and hardware options, as well as every imaginable accessory from picks to pickups and much more.

Stevie Ray Vaughan Strat Stevie Ray collaborated with Fender just before his untimely death to produce the Stevie Ray Vaughan Strat. With Fender Texas Special pickups for tone and jumbo frets for dramatic blues bends, and Stevie’s favored inverted left-hand vintage tremolo unit, now you can recreate the sound of Stevie Ray’s Texas-soaked blues. The guitar is finished in a 3-color sunburst over an alder body with a jewel-like polyurethane finish. The 12" radius, gloss-finished maple neck includes gold-plated Fender/Gotoh vintage-style tuning machines. ONLY $42/mo. Color: 3-color Sunburst

Eric Clapton Strat First introduced in the ‘80s, the Fender Eric Clapton Strat has been updated to create one of the most versatile Strats ever. It starts with a lightweight alder body. Thanks to the active midrange boost and TBX circuitry, you can go from crystal-clear tone to a full-throated growl with the spin of a knob. Add three Vintage Noiseless pickups and a “blocked” American vintage synchronized tremolo, and you have a truly soulful instrument. Colors: Black. Call for more options.

Custom Shop — the epitome of the luthier’s art, providing instantly collectable instruments. It comprises Tribute, Limited Edition, and Limited Release series.

sweetwater.com/guitargallery

The Fender Custom Shop is responsible for creating master-built instruments for the world’s guitar elite, as well as authentic re-creations of classic axes from years past. Custom Shop modifications may be as simple as uniquely voiced pickups, as complex as a completely overhauled instrument, or, in this case, a vintage-styled neck.

Eric Johnson The Eric Johnson Stratocaster features a light 2-piece alder body dressed in a very thin nitrocellulose lacquer, a 1-piece quarter-sawn soft “V” maple neck with a 12" fingerboard radius, and 21 highly polished frets. Additional features include staggered vintage-style machine heads (eliminating the string tree), custom pickups wound to Eric’s specifications, and a highly contoured body and neck. It includes a ‘57-style string recess with no paint between the base plate and the block.

Artist Series — built to the artist’s specifications, many have designs and innovations specific to the instrument such as SRV’s reverse tremolo.

Custom Classic — classic models built by the Custom Shop, but with modified specs and new designs, many coming from artists’ personal models.

Custom Classic V-Neck Strat

The Custom Classic Stratocaster V-Neck offers legendary Strat tone. Aged white plastic parts add to its classic looks, and a deluxe 2-point synchronized tremolo keeps it in tune and makes it easy to play. The lightly figured “V” maple neck is available with either a maple or rosewood fretboard. Three Modern Classic single-coil pickups include a Hot Classic bridge pickup.

American Deluxe Ash Stratocaster For those who don’t like to stray too far from tradition, but appreciate something new every once and again, Fender’s American Deluxe Ash Stratocaster combines the more traditional ash body with Fender’s breakthrough S-1 switching system and three Samarium Cobalt Noiseless Strat pickups. The result is a bright, clear-sounding guitar that delivers all the tried and true Strat® tones without the old single-coil buzz, along with enough new tonal options to make Jimi proud. Not to be outdone in the tonal variety department, the American Deluxe Stratocaster HSS adds a Fender DH-1 humbucking pickup to the sophisticated features of the American Deluxe Strat including the S-1 switching system, and an LSR Roller Nut with locking machine heads. To maintain balance with the beefier sound of the humbucking pickup, the two Samarium Cobalt Noiseless single-coil pickups are wound extra-hot — so handle with care!

Limited 1963 Telecaster Relic

'51 Nocaster Relic During a trademark dispute over the name “Broadcaster,” Fender® temporarily produced Telecasters® with just the Fender logo, hence the ® “Nocaster ” nickname. The ‘51 Nocaster Relic is an exact replica of an instrument that would’ve been produced in 1951, and used regularly over the years. The finish and hardware are aged to show signs of wear and tear. Internally, the Nocaster sports custom Nocaster pickups with special vintage wiring that disengages the tone control and engages a special “dark” circuit when in the third pickup selector position.

The Tele is simply an inspired design. Since its introduction, guitarists in all musical genres have relied on the Fender Telecaster for its powerful tone and smooth playability. Today’s improved Standard Telecaster features the best of the old and the new: A fast-action maple neck and fingerboard, new pickups with hotter output that are better suited for overdrive and distortion sounds, shielded body cavities for quieter operation, and medium jumbo frets for a more modern feel while making it easier to play.

Gibson instruments have defined, and continue to define the sound of popular music — especially rock ‘n’ roll. Today’s Gibson electric guitars represent the history as well as the future of the electric guitar. The models whose designs have become classics are a testament to Gibson’s wide appeal, spanning more than four decades of music styles. Gibson’s close relationship with musicians is evident in signature models from BB King, Chet Atkins, and jazz greats Howard Roberts and Herb Ellis, plus Les Pauls made to the personal specifications of rock stars Pete Townshend, Jimmy Page, Joe Perry, and more.

Hendrix Flying V Though Jimi Hendrix is famous for slinging a Strat, he also played a Flying V on tour in Europe in 1967 and 1968. Gibson’s Jimi Hendrix Psychedelic Flying V is a faithful recreation of his European touring axe, complete with a painstakingly hand-painted custom finish. The mahogany body and neck with rosewood fingerboard provide a fat, warm tone, while the ’57 Classic humbuckers and Maestro vibrato tailpiece complete the authentic look and sound.

CS 336 Figured Over 100 years ago, Orville Gibson had a desire to create a guitar with an unsurpassed resonance and tone. Crafted by Gibson’s Custom, Art, Historic division, the CS-336 is the realization of his dream. The mahogany back, sides, and centerblock are carved from a single block of wood joined with a carved maple top. The scaled-down body and slim-taper neck allow for more comfortable playing.

“The attention to detail is so unbelievable you’ll have to pinch yourself to make sure you’re not dreaming. The sustain is amazing with a sweeter top end than a regular LP. This guitar sounds so good you’ll play Kashmir ’til sunrise.” — Mark Thompson, Sales Engineer, Ext. 1373

Jimmy Page Signature Les Paul From his early days as a session guitarist to a stint in a little band known as Led Zeppelin, Jimmy Page was — and is — a major influence in many genres of music. Now you can experience the Jimmy Page magic one-on-one with a Jimmy Page Signature Les Paul, created based on measurements taken from Page’s actual Les Paul, then built with all the unique features that made this guitar his axe-of-choice for playing live. The neck of Page’s guitar is thick at the nut and at the neck heel, but it tapers to a super-slim depth in the middle. There’s also a push/pull pot in the rear volume control that reverses the phase to achieve a tone like that of B.B. King. Color: Custom Authentic Page Burst

1959 Les Paul Standard Reissue The only significant change made to the Les Paul in 1959 was the addition of wider, fatter frets, making it easier to bend notes. Between its dramatic string-bending abilities and the huge-sounding humbucker pickups, the 1959 Les Paul Standard was a natural for blues-rock, and attracted the attention of players the likes of Eric Clapton and Michael Bloomfield. The ‘59 is on countless tracks and helped cement the Les Paul as the guitar for serious rock players. As part of Gibson’s Vintage Original Spec series, the ’59 Standard features a mahogany body, carved figured maple top, ’59 profile neck, vintage tulip tuners, rosewood fingerboard with acrylic trapezoid inlays, two BurstBucker pickups, CTS pots, and bumble-bee capacitors.

Breakthrough Technology!

HD.6X.Pro Digital Guitar System Microphone 6-channel input digital output Standard analog output Headphone jack

Headphone volume

How many guitars have an Ethernet jack and a mic input? Only one: The brand-new digital Gibson HD.6X.Pro.

Innovation. It’s a key word for guitarists. From day one guitarists have pushed the limits of technique and gear. Now, with the HD.6X.Pro, Gibson has pushed the guitar to an entirely new level! The HD.6X.Pro looks exactly like a Gibson Les Paul, because it is a Les Paul! It’s got classic humbuckers, a hand-oiled mahogany neck, low-profile frets, and a wide fingerboard. Crank up the old tube amp and it’s a screaming Les Paul all day long. But the HD.6X. Pro also packs serious new technology that can take your playing to places you’ve never imagined. The HD.6X.Pro has six small patent-pending humbuckers near its tune-o-matic bridge. These pickups send six individual signals — one for each string — simultaneously. The six signals are converted to digital inside the guitar and sent via Ethernet cable to “BoB,” the HD.6X.Pro’s breakout box. BoB is the “air traffic controller,” routing the signals to different destinations. Imagine the possibilities! Send the bottom three strings to a clean amp and the top three to a distorted amp to simultaneously play lead over clean rhythm. Send each string to its own amp for the ultimate live surround experience. Use your computer-based DAW to process each string with separate delay and chorus effects for incredible new textures. The best part is you don’t have to change the playing technique you’ve spent years developing! Of course, with all the possibilities offered by the HD.6X.Pro, it’s more than likely you’ll be inventing some new playing techniques of your own. LPDGBMNH

Larry Carlton ES-335 Gibson introduces the Larry Carlton ES-335, an instrument designed to the specifications of the man known as “Mr. 335.” The semi-hollowbody design and 1960 slim-taper neck with 1963 block inlays provide excellent resonance and playability, respectively. The ES-335 is loaded with ‘57 PAF humbuckers, a pickup often sought after by tonehungry guitarists, which complements the natural tone of the instrument with just the right amount of bite.

Alvin Lee Signature ES-335 One of the highlights of the 1969 Woodstock festival was Alvin Lee’s blistering guitar work with Ten Years After. Gibson commemorates Alvin’s momentous performance (as well as the rest of his illustrious career) by issuing the Alvin Lee Signature ES-335. This isn’t your typical 335! Aside from the aged stickers that adorn the faded cherry maple top, Big Red (as Lee called it) is loaded with two ‘57 Classic open-coil humbuckers and a Duncan single coil middle pickup. According to Alvin, removing the pickup covers gave him a bit more bite. The hardware on Alvin’s 335 is a unique blend of aged chrome and gold, featuring a TP-6 fine-tuning bridge and kidney bean tuners. Only 50 will be made, so don’t miss your chance to get this historic guitar that’s dripping with soul! Colors: Faded Cherry ONLY $105/mo.

With its maple top, curly maple back and sides, and its authentic BJB Floating pickup, it’s easy to see why jazz musicians find this type of guitar irresistible.

The same spirit of innovation that drove Epiphone to push the boundaries of guitar design over 125 years ago can also be seen in those who chose to play them; musicians who themselves were visionaries. George Van Epps, Howard Roberts, and Joe Pass would make music history with Epiphone guitars, as would blues legend John Lee Hooker. The most recorded song ever written, “Yesterday,” was recorded with Epiphone guitars the Beatles purchased in 1964. It is an incredible legacy that continues today with Noel Gallagher, Lenny Kravitz, and other artists who choose to make their music with Epiphone guitars.

In 1964, The Beatles went “Epi” when George Harrison, John Lennon, and Paul McCartney bought Epiphone Casinos (the Epiphone Casino is mostly associated with John Lennon — above left). Paul used his for the guitar solos on “Ticket To Ride.” George’s Casino, the only one of the three equipped with a Bigsby vibrato, plays the major-scale runs in “Hello Goodbye.” All three Casinos are used on “All You Need Is Love.” The Elitist ‘65 Casino is equipped with a maple body, mahogany set neck, and a rosewood fingerboard, which imparts a warm midrange sound. With its clarity and high level of responsiveness, the ‘65 Casino will satisfy precision players who demand well-defined low and high tones. Loaded with Gibson-made, custom-wound pickups — wax potted to eliminate feedback — this is a faithful recreation of the guitar made famous by four unlikely lads from Liverpool.

Custom 24 and 22 The Custom series holds a special place in the PRS line. It was the very first production guitar built in the original Annapolis, Maryland shop on Virginia Avenue. The Custom 24, the core of the PRS line, was the guitar Paul Reed Smith took to his first trade show in 1985. Today, it still comes with the patented PRS tremolo bridge, locking tuners, and the beautifully carved, figured maple top that is a PRS hallmark. Today, PRS actually builds two versions of the Custom: The Custom 24 features 24 frets with HFS bridge and Vintage bass neck pickups. The Custom 22, introduced in 1993, represents the first major change to the PRS Custom model. With 22 frets, a wide-thin neck carve, and Dragon II treble and bass pickups, the Custom 22 is ready for action.

SE Custom If you’ve been pining for the PRS sound and feel, but your budget won’t stretch quite far enough to bring home a Custom 22 or 24 (see page 26), then the PRS SE Custom is your introduction to Paul Reed Smith tone and quality.

SE Standard Who ever thought that you could get the famous Paul Reed Smith sound and feel in a guitar that’s this affordable? The PRS SE Standard is a solid mahogany guitar with a glued-in 22-fret, mahogany neck and rosewood fingerboard. It features a matte finish, nickel hardware, and moon inlays. Thanks to the solid mahogany body and neck, the PRS SE Standard has a sweet, full midrange. The 25" neck scale allows ease of string bending as with a 24-5/8" scale, but with the added harmonic content of the 25-1/2" scale. Because of its strength and longer “heel,” the SE’s wide-fat neck produces warm tones with lots of sustain. The electronics include two standard PRS humbuckers without covers, a 3-way pickup selector, and volume and tone knobs. The Standard can be equipped with a PRS stoptail bridge (see SE Custom at right for description), or you can choose the PRS tremolo system and dive-bomb to your heart’s content. Colors: Matte Vintage Mahogany, Vintage Cherry. Call for more options.

The SE Custom features a solid mahogany body with a visually stunning maple cap with flame maple veneer, a glued-in mahogany neck, two PRS-designed SE standard humbucking pickups with zebra coils, and a PRS-designed tremolo bridge. The mahogany body gives you the rich midrange, while the maple cap adds just a touch of high end to your tone. Speaking of tone, all PRS pickups are designed in-house to Paul’s exacting standards, so you know when you plug in your SE Custom there’s no need to think about hot-rodding your pickups. The SE Custom is also available with a PRS stoptail bridge. Designed to take full advantage of the resonant properties of the guitar, the PRS stoptail bridge provides direct transmission of string vibration to the guitar body and makes set-up a breeze!

Ibanez is a guitar maker for artists as diverse as metal band Korn, jazz guitarist Pat Metheny, and rock instrumentalist Joe Satriani. It’s been an amazing journey for the family-owned company that began nearly 100 years ago. Their extensive research and development efforts have produced an array of instruments that combine time-proven craftsmanship with modern innovation in electronics. From arch-top hollowbodies to cutting-edge solidbody designs, Ibanez offers a guitar to match virtually any player’s desires.

S Series

RG Series

Back in the early days of rock, in order to have the thick, rich sound of a mahogany-body electric, turning into the “hunchback of notre-damage” was the price you paid for those bell-like tones. Ibanez changed all that with the S series, which serves up big, heavy tone without the big heavy body. The S2170FB features a mahogany body with burled bubinga top, a Wizard Prestige neck, and DiMarzio IBZ (H,S,H) pickups. The S470DXQM is mahogany with a quilted maple top, a Wizard II neck, and IBZ INF pickups (H,S,H). Both feature the ZR Zero Resistance tremolo, which offers a major advance in tremolo smoothness and tuning stability.

Since 1987, the RG Series has been the standard for hard rock and metal. Every aspect of these metal machines — from the pickups and their placement to the super-slim, built-for-speed necks — just screams to be thrashed. Built for major metal mayhem, the RG2550E sports a Wizard Prestige neck, Edge-Pro tremolo system, and DiMarzio IBZ neck, middle, and bridge pickups for serious shredding action. The RGA321F also has a Wizard Prestige neck and DiMarzio IBZ humbuckers, but has a hardtail bridge rather than a tremolo. The mahogany body with flame maple top provides the right balance of low-end punch and crunchy highs. The RG series has become a metal standard for a reason, so when you must visit sonic destruction ONLY $44/mo. $ 99 on every headbanger RGA321FSPB RG Series Electric, Saph Blue ...List $193332 in the room, accept no $ 99 $ 32 RG2550EGK RG Series Electric, Galaxy Blk ..List 1173 879 substitute! $ 99 $ 99

The Ibanez SA Series guitars are for players who find a flat back more comfortable to play. Both the SAS36FM and SA260FM are thin around the edge for comfort, and thick around the neck, pickups, and bridge to give you great tone. They also share the SAT Pro tremolo bridge for greater tuning stability and the SA neck. Feeding your amp from the SAS36 and SA260 are two DiMarzio/IBZ AHS single-coil pickups in the neck and middle positions, and a True-Duo humbucker bridge pickup with push/pull switch on the volume control.

AF105

From his days playing “out” jazz in smoky clubs in Newark, New Jersey to vocally doubling his guitar solo in his first big pop hit, George Benson has been, and continues to be a guitarist’s guitarist. The GB15TR sports a single humbucker with coil-tapping capabilities, while the GB10S has two humbuckers. Otherwise the two guitars are virtually identical, with 21 medium frets, spruce top, and maple back and sides. The body is a smaller-sized, single-cutaway design offering the thick jazz tones you would expect from a larger body. The thicker spruce top in ONLY $75/mo. conjunction with the smaller body serves to reject feedback.

Ibanez SZ Series guitars are for players who prefer the elegance of simplicity with a focus on tone and sustain. The SZ series employ thru-body staggered stringing, which compensates for different string thicknesses and provides superior balance, feel, articulation, and sustain. Ibanez equipped the SZ series with USA-made Seymour Duncan/IBZ pickups for warm, fat, and powerful tone. The SZ320 has a maple top, the top of the SZ520QMG is quilted maple, and the SZ7220FM features a ONLY $20/mo. flame maple top.

Joe Satriani Series Known to be capable of producing some of the best guitar tones around, Joe Satriani, the Master of Tone himself, designed and plays these guitars. The signature edition JS Series are built to Joe’s exacting specifications, with a little secret mojo mixed in for good measure! JS guitars feature a lightweight basswood body (chosen by Joe for comfort and excellent balance between highs and lows), a multi-radius Prestige maple neck, and a rosewood fingerboard that’s an exact digital rendering of the neck on Joe’s favorite axe. According to the one who “surfed with the alien,” “I wanted a guitar with a modern sound, but with a vintage feel, with smaller frets and more radius on the fingerboard. It had to be subtle enough to catch nuances, fast and easy to play, and you had to be able to wear it.” The JS Series sports souped-up electronics to complement the custom body. The JS1200 features a Fred humbucker at the bridge and a specially designed DiMarzio PAF Joe humbucker pickup in the neck position. This particular pickup is a special blend of vintage PAF and the DiMarzio PAF Pro for a sound that is, according to Joe, “tubular.” The JS1000 is equipped with a DiMarzio PAF Pro neck pickup and a Fred humbucker at ONLY $42/mo. the bridge.

JEM 7V Steve Vai Signature Few would debate the fact that Steve Vai has a towering technique and fretboard prowess that would make most of us blush. He honed his skills under such impressive axe slingers as Frank Zappa and Joe Satriani (see Joe’s signature models to the left). It should come at no surprise that a guitarist of this skill level would demand a high-caliber instrument. Enter the JEM 7V Steve Vai Signature. Steve chose an alder body for his signature model due to its classic, vintage tone and the ability to do lead and rhythm work equally well, and the body is accented by the his trademark handgrip cut into the body. The rosewood fingerboard lends warmth and is decorated with a delicate vine inlay that runs the length of the neck. As far as electronics, the JEM 7V is equipped with two DiMarzio Evolution humbuckers in the neck and bridge slots and an Evolution single-coil in the middle. The Evolution pickups are high-output screamers, perfect for live use. The bridge humbucker will let your tone easily cut through even the densest mix, while the neck pickup is fat and punchy. Put this guitar through a screamin’ amp, and see what this baby can do. In the wrong hands, the JEM 7V can be very dangerous! Color: White

In the ’50s, Eddie Cochrane and Chet Atkins shaped the sound of pop music with Gretsch guitars. In the ’60s, Gretsch defined the sound of The Who’s rock opera, Tommy. The Beatles used them, and so did Jimmy Page, Stephen Stills, Brian Setzer, and everyone from Aerosmith to Billy Zoom. In fact, Gretsch guitars are what gave Bono his “Edge.” In 1967 the Gretsch Company was sold, and without the family dedication that had driven the business for so many years, the company began to drift. In 1985, Fred Gretsch III took back his grandfather’s legacy with a little help from his friends, and has brought back the great Gretsch sound in all its glory with reissues of the finest classic Gretsch guitars.

Bono Irish Falcon The Gretsch Irish Falcon is a special green (“Everygreen”) version of the legendary White Falcon (see below), and a replica of the guitar Gretsch made for Bono. The pickguard inscription reads, “The Goal is Soul.” Rich tones come from dual High Sensitive Filtertron pickups and a 17" wide, 2-3/4" deep laminated maple body with an arched laminated maple top.

“Modern guitar players can be so obsessed with mega distortion and solidbody guitars that sustain forever. But all that compression and phase cancellation can create a very thin, nasally sound. Try one of these classic Gretsch reissues through a cleaner Fender or Vox amp — you’ll be amazed how all that chime and twang can make a much ‘bigger’ guitar sound.”

The Variax 700 offers spot-on models of 25 classic guitar sounds and makes accessing them as simple as turning a knob. It houses its remarkable electronics in a carved-top ash-over-mahogany body (translucent colors) or carved-top solid mahogany body (black), with a 1-piece maple neck and rosewood fingerboard, bone nut, and pearl inlays, plus Gotoh tuners and a custom L.R. Baggs tremolo bridge. Variax connects directly into any guitar amp to produce its 25 exacting models, which includes classic solidbody single-coil and humbucking sounds, the thick hollowbody tone of one of the most coveted archtop jazz guitars in history, and classic steel-string dreadnoughts and specialty instruments such as banjo, resonators, Dobro, and even a sitar to satisfy the hard-core ‘60s freak in all of us. All Variax 700 models now include tremolo tailpieces. For those who want Line 6’s guitar modeling wizardry but aren’t quite ready for the 700, the Variax 600 features a comfort-contoured basswood body and a 1-piece maple neck and fingerboard for a classic feel. The custom L.R. Baggs tremolo bridge lets you dive bomb the stage. Line 6 has also found a way for cash-strapped guitarists to have access to the sounds of 25 great instruments: The Variax 300 features a comfort-contoured agathis body, and a maple neck with Indian rosewood fingerboard. All three have digital in and out jacks for PODXT Live, Vetta II, and Workbench, XPS Mini power supply with 1/4" standard guitar output, and can be powered by XPS Mini, on-board batteries, Vetta II, or PODXT Live (see p. 42, p. 71).

HP Special CT USA Boasting a finish that’s as brilliant as its design, the HP Special CT USA is the ultimate refinement of the playability, tone, style, and technology born of Peavey’s 40 years of experience. It features an offset basswood body with a sculpted neck joint, a bound, figured maple arch top, and an oil-finished, highly figured, 22-fret, asymmetrical birdseye maple neck. Also featured are two custom-wound HP Special humbucking pickups with coil taps, enclosed, diecast Schaller machine heads, a Floyd Rose double-locking tremolo, and Peavey’s Lok Block system, which sets the tremolo to “down” only or fully floating.

JF-1 EXP Hartley Peavey always listens to his customer’s needs and then acts. Jazz and fusion players are constantly playing up and down the fretboard and need as much access as possible in the upper register, so Peavey took the classic design of the JF-1 semi-hollowbody electric guitar one step further by ever so slightly angling the neck to allow more comfortable access to the upper part of the fretboard. Two humbuckers, Grover tuners with tulip pegs, a 1-piece mahogany set-neck with rosewood fretboard, and gold-plated hardware help make this player’s dream come true! ONLY $10/mo.

Valley Arts was founded in North Hollywood in the early 1970s by guitarists Mike McGuire and Al Carness. Initially, their focus was on retail and teaching, which eventually extended to repair. With luminary clients such as Larry Carlton and Lee Ritenour, Valley Arts graduated to full-blown custom guitar makers. One day, during the midst of expansion, Valley Arts was dealt a life-threatening blow by an arsonist who burned down their shop. Thanks to Gibson’s devotion to the American guitar’s heritage, Mike, Al, and that old Valley Arts magic is back! Valley Arts guitars are handcrafted using only the finest materials available.

Brent Mason Signature Custom Pro Valley Arts is still where the stars go to have their guitars made, just like it was back in L.A. in the ‘70s when they made guitars for artists such as Larry Carlton and Toto’s Steve Lukather, who lists the guitar that Valley Arts made for him 1978 as one of his main axes. The Custom Pro features an alder (ash is optional) body with a quilted maple top. The quilt maple top is lovely to look at and adds a bit of treble, but most of the sound is enhanced by the alder body, which brings the classic rock sound of Hendrix, SRV, and John Mayer to the table. To translate the Custom Pro’s classic sound to your amp, various electronic and hardware options are available including 2- or 3-knob tone and volume controls, 3- or 5-way pickup switching, EMG or Seymour Duncan single-coil and humbucking pickups, hardtail, Floyd Rose, or Wilkinson tailpieces, and Schaller or locking Gotoh tuners in either gold or black. Colors: Transparent Red, Transparent Gold, Transparent Blue. Call for more options.

T-Series Bent Top

Color: Matte Pewter

As any top session player will tell you, versatility in both musical style and tone is the key to longevity in the studio. The Valley Arts T-Series Bent Top unlocks an amazing world of tonal variation. The Bent Top features a mahogany neck and hollow mahogany body. We asked Valley Arts co-founder and guitar-maker to the stars, Al Carness, why he chose a hollowbody design for what looks like a country rock guitar. According to Al, “Mahogany has a warm sound and rich mid range. The hollow body takes out some of the midrange and boosts the bass and treble adding clarity, making the sound warm and well-defined.” Valley Arts’ intimate understanding of tone production is also reflected in the electronics. The T-Series Bent Top has two Duncan Custom Flat SSL-6 single-coil pickups and a Duncan Alnico II humbucker at the bridge. Says Al, “The advantage of a humbucker in the lead or treble position is to add warmth, volume, and bite.” The Bent Top also features a 5-way selector, master volume, middle and neck tone, and master tone controls, gold hardtail bridge, and gold Gotoh locking tuners. Rock, country, or jazz, this brilliant work of (Valley) Art does it all with impeccable style and exceptional playability, like all V-Arts guitars! Colors: Tri-Burst, Classic White, Natural Mahogany.

Almost all of the successful Los Angeles-based session players from the ‘70s, ‘80s, and early ‘90s played Valley Arts guitars, and the same holds true for top Nashville session player and artist Brent Mason. He has appeared on the albums of Brooks and Dunn, Tricia Yearwood, George Strait, Shania Twain, and countless others. Now there’s a Valley Arts guitar that bears his name: The Brent Mason Signature model. The body of the Brent Mason is swamp ash, a bright wood with a clear, tight focus. Players such as Roy Buchanan, Keith Richards, and Eddie Van Halen used ash body guitars. It has a quick attack, great rock rhythm sounds, and the ever-popular country twang! Contributing to the clean, bright tonality is a maple neck and fingerboard. Valley Arts maple necks are very rigid and true, and stay that way for decades. The Mason features a minihumbucker in the neck position to add warmth, volume, and bite, while the Duncan Classic Stack with coil tap (middle) and Lead Stack (bridge) handle the brighter, twangy chores. Satin chrome locking Sperzel tuners, and a chrome hardtail bridge add the finishing touches. ONLY $66/mo.

Instead of having a jumble of floor pedals and rack units with power and cabling hassles and noise, the Alesis XGuitar packs the sounds of dozens of effects inside its body! The XGuitar is a full-scale electric guitar with one humbucker and two stacked single-coil pickups on a 5-position pickup selector switch. But the real shocker is the built-in DSP that carries 80 editable guitar effects presets drawn from the Alesis GuitarFX unit. It gives you 28-bit effects ranging from delays, amp and cabinet models, chorus, pitch transposition, flanger, reverb, and rotary speaker, to EQ, dynamics, and noise reduction. Jam anywhere — the XGuitar can run on battery power!

Marshall Amplification began in 1962 in the UK, where Jim Marshall had a music shop and taught drums. As drummers came to his shop, so came their guitarist bandmates. The guitarists spoke to Jim Marshall about the guitars they wanted and the qualities they were looking for in an amplifier — qualities that they couldn’t find anywhere at that time. It was from such conversations that Marshall launched his amp manufacturing business. It’s a journey that he is still on today and still enjoys as much as ever. Regardless of your playing style and needs, there is a Marshall setup that’s perfect for you. So, are you ready to rock?

TSL100

TSL100

Triple Super Lead Amp The Marshall TSL100 takes the lead as the most versatile all-tube Marshall head available today. It offers three distinct channels for classic rock, modern sounds, and a clean channel a country picker could love. Add tone shift switches on the crunch and lead channels; a mid boost switch on the clean channel; two parallel FX loops; dual reverb controls; two deep switches; a 5-way LED footswitch; a “VPR” switch to emulate the sound and feel of a fully saturated 25-watt tube power amp; speaker emulation; and a power amp mute button for silent recording, and the TSL becomes a flexible modern amp that remains true to its heritage. The TSL122, TSL601, and TSL602 put that Marshall tone into all-tube, 3-channel combo amps. The ideal cabinets for your Marshall head? The 1960 Series, of course! They’re part of the essential “Marshall Stack.” Each cab holds four 12" Celestion G12T-75 speakers. The 1960A is the “top” cabinet, with an angled face for improved dispersion. The 1960B is the straight-faced “bottom.” Marshall also offers the 1960AV and 1960BV cabinets loaded with the extra-warm sounding Marshall/Celestion 70-watt Vintage speakers.

2061X Handwired 20-watt Tube Amp Here’s more vintage Marshall for lovers of the 1960s sound. The 2061X is a faithful reissue of Marshall’s model 2061, originally made from 1967 to 1973. The 2061X is an all-valve (“tube” to Americans) lead and bass head that uses two ECC83 and two EL84 tubes to produce 20 watts of power. All of the internal circuits are hand-wired, just the way they did it back in the glory days of rock and roll. The perfect speaker is the 2061CX. This compact cabinet recreates the look of the big-daddy 1960 but houses two 12" Celestion G12H-30 speakers. The 1974X is a 2-channel, handwired, all-tube 18-watt authentic reissue of the 1974 combo from the late 1960s with a single ONLY $56/mo. 12" speaker.

DSL401 All-tube, 40-watt Dual Super Lead Combo If you want classic Marshall tone in an affordable, easy-to-transport combo, then the Marshall DSL401 is the amp for you. This compact, EL84 tube-powered, 1 x 12" 40-watt combo packs a wallop, featuring tight, punchy tones that are Marshall through and through. Its clean channel yields sparkling tones at low settings, with increasing levels of fat grind as you turn up the gain.

MF350 Hybrid Head Jim Marshall listened to the needs of guitarists back in the ‘60s, and he’s still listening today. So when modern guitarists like System of a Down’s Daron Malakian asked for an amp with more gain, low end, and headroom, Marshall responded with the Mode Four MF350. Mode Four amps boast a true “two amplifiers in one” design with totally separate tube preamplifier circuits. Mode Four completely reconfigures its power amplifier section depending on the amp type you select. Amp 1 offers classic Clean and Crunch, while Amp 2 offers more gain than any Marshall before it. To complete your stage-shaking stack (try saying that three times), snag yourself a 280-watt MF280A, with its balanced mid range, huge bottom end, and angled cabinet to project your sound up and out over the audience. ONLY $30/mo.

Ready to build the quintessential Marshall stack? Try the 100-watt DSL100 or 50-watt DSL50 head. DSL is an acronym for “Dual Super Lead,” so it should come as no surprise that this amp has two footswitchable channels — Classic and Ultra. Furthermore, each of these channels boasts two modes. The Classic channel offers a Clean/Crunch option while the Ultra channel offers Lead 1 or Lead 2. Each one of these four modes has been individually voiced as an amp in its own right!

AVT100X 3-channel Combo with Digital FX

MG15CD

Combining decades of tube-tone expertise with the latest digital technology, Marshall presents the AVTX series of amazing sounding solid-state modeling amplifiers. With the AVT100X, you get 100 watts of tube-simulated power capable of anything from mild crunch to face-melting metal. Marshall provided Scoop switches to tweak the EQ for tones reminiscent of ‘80s metal. The different tones are accessible through the included footswitch, which allows you to choose the Clean channel or either of the two Overdrive channels. The footswitch also turns the digital effects on and off.

Compact 15-watt Combo The revolutionary, solidstate MG15CD can deliver the crunch of a much larger tube amp. The secret is Marshall’s Frequency Dependent Damping, which accurately mimics the way an all-tube amp interacts with a loudspeaker, for a sound no other solid-state box can touch. With two channels — clean and overdrive — plus a contour control that lets you fine-tune the midrange from “nice” to “slammin’,” you’ve got all you need for practice at home or with the band. A CD input lets you play along with your favorite tunes. When you’re in “silent practice” mode, the headphone output emulates a speaker output, so you get the full-bore Marshall experience.

The AVT50X is a 50-watt combo dripping with vintage tone. The two footswitchable channels provide everything from clean, glassy tones to fat, punchy modern tones. Both combos sport 12" speakers and enough volume to fill virtually any club. These easily transported combos are an extremely affordable way to capture Marshall tone, from classic to modern.

First introduced in 1958, the Vox AC15 15-watt combo was the amp of choice for countless tone-loving guitar players. The next incarnation of this renowned amplifier is the Vox AC15 Custom Classic. The AC15CC has an array of features including master volume, spring reverb, and tremolo with fully variable speed and depth. The AC15CC is available with a specially voiced Vox Custom speaker (AC15CC1) or a Celestion Alnico “Blue” speaker (AC15CC1X).

Its heavyweight features include 11 distinctive sound styles, 11 high-quality built-in effects, a super-easy knob-based control panel, and more. On the back panel there’s a unique power select slider that gives you the option to run the amp output at 5 watts, 1.5 watts, or 0.5 watts to prolong battery life. A headphone jack doubles as a line out, plus, it has a CD input and a dedicated mic input with its own volume control so you can play guitar and sing along with recorded music.

Battery-powered Amp ...........List $19000

This all-tube combo amp features hand-wired circuitry. Fender even reproduced the 1955-57 edition “low powered” 5E8A circuit, which puts 40 watts into a pair of 12" alnicomagnet speakers. Power comes from two GT6L6 output tubes and Fender’s rarely seen mid-’50s dual rectifier arrangement. One of the most collectible amps of all time, this latest member of Fender’s acclaimed Custom Series gives you harmonically rich clean tones that are great for vintage rock, blues, and country; crank it up for fat, sophisticated distortion. The ‘57 Twin’s finger-joined solid pine cabinet resonates with a warm, woody tone. The amp is covered in genuine lacquered tweed fronted with vintage brown/gold grille cloth. Leather strap handle on top and fitted cover included. Keith Richards once said that Fender guitars sound their best through Fender amps, and this is one of the finest Fender amps you’ll find.

One of the most recorded amps in the ‘70s and beyond, the original Princeton® was the amp engineers and artists were talking about when they let the secret out that you don’t need a big amp to get a huge tube tone. The new Princeton Recording Amp offers all of the great tone and dynamics of the original, plus several modern studio-friendly features. Its all-tube preamp, power amp, and reverb circuitry is based on the classic ’65 Princeton Reverb, and, with 15 watts and a 10" Jensen speaker, it provides spanking vintage tone, footswitchable effects, and enough output for small gigs. The power attenuator lets you crank up the amp for full tube overdrive and set the speaker volume as low as you want.

The Fender® ‘57 Twin is the amp that started it all. If you’ve ever heard a record made before 1967 and fallen in love with the sweet guitar sound — smooth, fat distortion and perfect clean tones — the ‘57 Twin was quite likely the amp being used. The Fender ‘57 Twin was a favorite of the Rolling Stones and many other heavyweights of the 1960s, and this is your chance to capture that classic tone.

Since the introduction of the original Cyber-Twin® in 2001, it has become an industry standard in programmable amplifiers. Now, the Fender® design team has produced the second edition of this flagship amp, the new Cyber-Twin SE. It’s still a 2x12" combo with a tube preamp, just as you’d expect from a Cyber-Twin, but with its digital modeling you’ll be able to craft even more signature sounds for your guitar. It looks just a little different, but it does everything the original model did, plus a whole lot more! The Cyber-Twin SE merges the best of the digital world with a pair of 12AX7 preamp tubes to form a powerful and versatile amp. There are 250 amp models built in, and you can store 100 user-customized settings. There are also 42 effects to choose from, each with editable parameters. With tubes and so many built-in tone options, you can’t go wrong with the Cyber-Twin. Specs: tube/solid-state • 2 x 12" • 130W • 2-channel

If you could cram a ‘65 Vibrolux®, a ‘66 Bassman®, and the high gain crunch of modern amps into one box, you’d have the Super-Sonic™ Series. With 10 (yes, count ‘em 10) tubes and two channels, you can dial in your perfect guitar tone. The Super-Sonic Series is designed for serious players desiring modern high-gain tones and industry-standard Fender clean tones. The series is built around a 60-watt all-tube amp, available in combo or head format. The Vintage channel has two selectable voices based on the original circuits of highly desirable Fender amps (sparkly toned 1965 Vibrolux, thick-toned 1966 Bassman). The Drive channel has a super-cool dual-knob cascading-gain preamp for more creamy sustain and compression than any previous Fender amp. Matching the head is a 2 x 12" cabinet.

30-watt All-tube Combo Amp Who better to design the 15" Delta Blues combo amp than Peavey, whose roots are in Mississippi, the home of the Delta Blues? This 30-watt combo features an all-tube design to gradually bring in that sweet old-time low-end distortion that sounds louder to the ear. And the 15" speaker gives your tone a fat, throaty quality. But this amp isn’t just for blues purists. Modern flexibility comes from a tremolo with speed and intensity controls, pre-and post-gain controls on the lead channel, 3-band passive EQ, a boost switch, external speaker jack, master reverb, and an effects loop. If you’d prefer a more traditional speaker configuration, the Delta Blues 210 is a 30-watt 2 x 10" version with the same features and functionality as the 15" model, and comes with either tweed or black vinyl covering material.

Guitar Player reviewer Barry Cleveland raved about the Backstage in his March 2004 hands-on product review: “This is easily one of the best-sounding mini amps I’ve ever heard. It delivers a great assortment of tube-like tones and offers excellent dynamic response, all in a pint-sized package and for a very modest price.” Specs: combo • 10W • 2-ch • 6.5" • 2-band EQ • RCA in • headphone

JC-120

Micro Cube

Jazz Chorus Combo Amp

Battery-powered Amplifier

One of many milestones for Roland, the JC-120 Jazz Chorus guitar amplifier was the first amp to include dual amplifiers and a chorus effect. First released in 1975, the JC-120 has become one of the most popular guitar amps of all time With the lush chorus effects that the JC-120 is famous for, two discrete channels, stereo 60+60-watt amp design, 3-band EQ on each channel, and high-quality reverb, the JC-120 sound is just what you need. The secret behind the expansive Jazz Chorus effect lies in the innovative twin-amp, twin-speaker configuration in which both sides are completely independent. The two sounds blend in acoustic space, creating a dimensional chorus sound.

The Micro Cube is the most portable member of Roland’s Cube family of guitar amps measuring only 8" square! Onboard are seven COSM guitar amp models. Using just six “AA” batteries, you can play for up to 20 hours. The Micro Cube also has two sets of built-in DSP effects — chorus, flanger, phaser, tremolo, plus independent delay and reverb, which you can mix and match — and an audible digital tuner. AC adaptor included. Specs: combo • 1 x 5" • 2W • 1-channel • solid-state ONLY $27/mo.

GA40RVT

Les Paul Junior

30-watt Class A Tube Amp

5-watt Tube Guitar Amp

A fine, hand-built amplifier from Gibson, the GA40RVT features 30 watts into two channels of Class A tube sweetness. Inside, the GA40RVT is point-to-point wired with 12AX7 and 6L6 tubes. With two inputs and a mix input, as well as switchable pentode and triode modes, the GA40RVT is a great amp for stage or studio. Ultra-low noise DC-powered filaments virtually eliminate the hum of traditional tube amplifiers. Two-tone brown and tolex covering gives the GA40RVT a wickedly vintage look. The reverb and tremolo are also tube-driven to add to the vibe. A 12-inch Eminence Legend speaker completes the signal chain. The GA42RVT shares the same great features and sound and adds an additional Eminence speaker for a 2 x 12" configuration. The GA20RVT, a 15-watt version, has two 6V6 output tubes.

The hand-built Gibson Les Paul Junior amplifier (Model GA-5), was Gibson’s most popular guitar amp of the 1950s. Now it returns featuring single-ended Class A tube circuitry, point-to-point hand-wiring, and dual input jacks feeding a singlechannel ECC83/12AX7A tube preamp. One 6BQ5/EL84 tube for power amplification is enhanced by a solid-state rectifier and a universal power transformer. Voiced by a custom-designed 8" Gibson Goldtone speaker, the GA-5 provides tone that is pure, vintage Gibson.

Epiphone’s Blues Custom 30 packs a ton of vintage blues tone into an affordable and versatile combo! With 30W of Class AB power (switchable to 15W Class A) the Blues Custom 30 is like having two vintage amps in one.

If you’ve ever lived in Orange County, you know that Southern California rocks — and Epiphone has designed an amp head for the SoCal sound, the So-Cal 50H. It’s a dual-power (switchable between 50 and 25 watts), Class AB high-gain boutique-quality amp. Built-in 3-band EQ, EL34s, and remarkable attention to detail make the So-Cal a great value.

The Dual Mode EQ functions in two modes — Interactive (knobs affect each other) or independently (knobs work separately to affect the sound) — to modify your tone. The Blues Custom 30 has five 12AX7 tubes in the preamp, two 5881 power tubes, and a 5AR4 rectifier tube for a tone straight from the ‘60s. With its tube reverb, you won’t find an amp with this much tube tone at this price anywhere. The Blues Custom 30 pushes all this tube-goodness through two 12" Lady Luck Eminence speakers.

Acoustic Guitars THE SWEETWATER DIFFERENCE — EXPERIENCE IT TODAY!

What can we say about Martin guitars that does justice to the supreme quality and desirability of these exquisite instruments? For more than 172 years C.F. Martin & Company has maintained the traditions of old-world craftsmanship while creating the archetypal modern acoustic guitar. Using the finest tonewoods, time-tested bracing, and precision assembly, Martin guitars have a rich, warm sound all their own. From the original dreadnoughts to the travel-friendly Backpackers, there’s a Martin for every taste. Sweetwater was honored to host the final public showcase of Martin’s one-of-a-kind “millionth” guitar in Fall 2005, and we’re equally proud to offer you the fine instruments described below.

D-42 With only 30 of these guitars in existence, it’s not hard to see how special the Limited Edition D-42 Flamed Mahogany is. Martin searched the world for the most exquisitely figured mahogany to use on the back and sides, perfectly matched to the choice Adirondack spruce top. As you would expect from a top-of-the-line Martin, this beauty is superbly balanced tonally. When you own a guitar of this pedigree, you’ll never again wonder just how good you could sound if you owned a truly magnificent instrument. Color: Polished gloss

Jumbo The Jumbo delivers the extra-deep resonance and volume that come with a larger sound chamber together with its own signature subtleties. Re-voicing has sharpened its tonal difference from the Dreadnought. With huge presence, the Jumbo is perfectly suited for aggressive strumming.

A traditional shape refined, Taylor combines classic dreadnought volume and bass response with the definitive Taylor sound: clear treble and an open, airy midrange that Bob Taylor’s signature design accentuates. Recent re-voicing turns up the bass and volume even more. Dreadnoughts respond especially well to flatpicking or light-to-heavy strumming. 310ce

Taylor GS Series guitars feature a unique body shape developed by Bob Taylor to make them to stand out from the crowd — not to mention sound unlike any other acoustic guitar around. This special shape gives the instrument a well-balanced tone, with piano-like bass notes with clear highs and plenty of volume. The GS Series comes in four different tonewood combinations — maple/Sitka spruce, rosewood/Sitka spruce, rosewood/ cedar, and mahogany/cedar — each producing a unique sound while maintaining the same visual appointments. The concept behind the GS Series is to choose the tone that best suits your style, since all are similarly priced. The GSMS (maple and spruce) produces a clear and articulate tone. With the GSRS, (rosewood and spruce) you get a guitar with an excellent blend of clarity and warmth. The GSRC (rosewood and cedar) adds a softer touch to the tone of the GS Series. Finally, the GSMC (mahogany and cedar) provides the warmest sound of any of the GS Series, making it perfect for fingerstyle players. All GS series guitars are available with the Taylor Expression System, providing some of the most naturalsounding amplified acoustic guitar tones available. Color: Natural ONLY $69/mo.

Custom Doves In Flight Designed by Gibson’s Custom Shop master luthier Ren Ferguson, the Doves In Flight limited edition acoustic guitar is built from the most select woods available. In fact, when he’s not building unique, one-of-a-kind guitars for Gibson Montana, much of Ren Ferguson’s time is spent finding sources of premium Sitka spruce, maple, and ebony. These are the woods that comprise the square-shoulder body and neck of his latest work of art, the beautiful-looking (and sounding) Doves in Flight. A hand-rubbed cherry stain graces the Doves’ solid Sitka spruce top, and checkerboard marquetry adorns the solid curly maple back. The sides are also crafted from the finest curly maple, as is the neck, which plays host to an ebony fingerboard, that in turn provides a perch for the exquisite mother of pearl “Dove’s in Flight” inlays. The guitar features 28 individually engraved doves, each an original design unto itself. The Doves in Flight also comes with gold Grover Keystone tuners with engraved knobs, and a hand-stamped, special custom edition serial number bearing the Custom Shop headstock logo and certificate of authenticity.

The Fender® Precision Bass®, arguably the most popular bass of all time, has long been a favorite of rock bassists thanks to its fat, punchy, driving sound. The original Precision Bass was equipped with a single piece, 4-pole pickup and had a simple, non-contoured body design. In 1954 the body was contoured with beveled edges for comfort. In 1957, the pickup was changed to a single split-coil design, the headstock was enlarged for stability, and the pickguard was radically changed. The ‘57 design remains the standard for electric bass.

The Jazz Bass®, originally called the “Deluxe Model,” has a narrower and more rounded neck than the Precision Bass®. It also features two single-coil pickups and a more contoured, asymmetrical body style. The Jazz Bass has a warm, round tone without as much high-end punch as the Precision Bass. This makes it ideal for fingerstyle players. It became a classic in the hands of bassists such as John Paul Jones, Geddy Lee, and Jaco Pastorius.

THE SWEETWATER DIFFERENCE — EXPERIENCE IT TODAY!

Ibanez bass guitars are seen around the globe on stage with artists such as Fieldy (Korn), and Terry Butler (Six Feet Under), Robbie Merrill (Godsmack), and many others. It’s been an amazing journey for the family-owned company that began nearly 100 years ago. Their extensive research and development efforts have produced an array of instruments that combine time-proven craftsmanship with modern innovation in electronics. For both young and young-at-heart, Ibanez offers bass guitars that are visually appealing and sonically powerful.

SR1006EFM

BTB1206E Prestige

With Ibanez’s SR1006EFM, bassists get a great-sounding and fast-playing bass, perfect for anything from punk to funk. The maple back and wings with flame maple top provides a bright, crisp tone, which is amplified by the U.S.-made Bartolini Custom pickups. The Ibanez Vari-Mid EQ allows fine-tuning of the sound to meet any player’s needs. Ibanez equips the SR1006EFM with thin, 24-fret Prestige necks. For hardware, the SR1006EFM sports Gotoh tuning keys and a Mono-Rail bridge. Ibanez also offers the 5-string SR1005EFM, and 4-string SR1000EFM with the same build quality and features.

The BTB Series provides the features, quality, and sound of a boutique bass with one significant omission: no expensive price tag! Everything else is here — passive pickups, full-bodied sound, and premium playability. The BTB’s 35" neck scale keeps tension nice and tight, with no flopping in the low end, and high strings that sustain better. The BTB1206E is a 6-string masterpiece featuring through-neck design, Bartolini pickups, and a 3-band active EQ. Ibanez equipped the BTB basses with Mono-Rail bridges to limit string-to-string vibrational interference. The BTB455QM 5-string bass sports a basswood body with flame maple top, a 5-piece maple and walnut neck, and the same Bartolini pickups and EQ as the BTB1206.

Bass Guitars THE SWEETWATER DIFFERENCE — EXPERIENCE IT TODAY!

Mike Tobias began making custom guitars and basses in his music store in Orlando, Florida, in 1977. His instruments featured innovations in every facet of bass design: combinations of exotic tone woods, ergonomic improvements, and the feel that every bass was custom-designed for the individual bassist. Tobias relocated to California in 1980 and eventually settled in the Hollywood area. By 1990, with demand for Tobias basses growing far faster than production capability, Tobias joined the Gibson family of musical instruments. Gibson continues to raise industry standards for design, quality, and performance with Tobias basses, highlighted by the 2003 debut of a new generation of basses made in Conway, Arkansas.

Thunderbird IV Every family of instruments has its standout. For Gibson, the Thunderbird IV bass sits at the head of the table. It first appeared in 1963 and was reissued in ’87 with the original reverse body styling and new, specialdesign pickups. Mahogany wings comprise the body that lovingly embraces a 9-ply mahogany and walnut neck-through-body design. Today’s Thunderbird IV also features a 3-way adjustable tailpiece and two newdesign TB Plus ceramic magnet humbuckers for some really thumping-good bass tone.

SG Reissue Bass Gibson’s classic dual-pickup SG-style bass from the 1960s has returned as the SG Reissue. With its short scale and slim neck — just like the original — the SG Reissue heralds the return of a more “rock and roll” time with a vintage-style TB Plus bass humbucker in the neck position and a bass mini-humbucker sitting in front of the chrome combo bridge. This solid mahogany beauty also features shamrock tuners and block top hat knobs with silver inserts on the volume and tone pots. It’s a fast-playing, fat-sounding gem! Colors: Heritage Cherry.

DD-20 Digital Delay Pedal Many guitarists have wondered why the DD-20 provides 23 seconds of delay. Is that useful? You bet! BOSS engineers realized that when you’re doing a sound recording, 23 seconds usually provides enough time to set up a 16-bar pattern. This digital delay is going to make you very happy. Besides its 23-second capacity, it’s easy to set up and use. Thanks to a new streamlined interface and backlit LCD display, (it’s the only delay pedal to have one), you can quickly see and set delay time in milliseconds, seconds, or even BPM via push-button knob or tap tempo. And with a choice of 11 modes, including classic tape delay and sound-on-sound, the DD-20 features seamless program changes. This twin pedal clearly raises the bar — so we suggest that you don’t delay — get one immediately!

Undo allows you to erase your previous phrase and instantly layer a new one. After you’ve dazzled the crowd, you can stop playback cold, let the phrase play out, or fade it.

TS808 More than a few guitarists have set out seeking a vintage TS808 Tube Screamer, a pedal many consider to be the Holy Grail of stompboxes. Capable of producing extremely convincing tube-like tones from transistor technology, this reissue of the original Tube Screamer employs the same JRC4558 chip that made the vintage units sound so good. The TS808 was a favorite of guitar legend Stevie Ray Vaughn. There is no single stompbox more famous than the Ibanez TS9DX Turbo Tube Screamer, which continues to be the world’s most popular solid-state overdrive. The TS9DX sports a TA75558 chip, which provides a crisper, cleaner sound than the TS808 Tube Screamer. Tone purists have debated the merits of the TS9DX versus the TS808 since the inception of the TS9, and one thing is certain — both of these pedals sound amazing! Ibanez offered the AD9 Analog Delay pedal 20 years ago. Now it’s back, bringing you the dramatic effect of discrete echo. Ibanez is also reissuing two more of the most popular 9-Series effects: the FL9 flanger and CS9 chorus. Both the FL9 and CS9 are great for adding classic modulation effects to your guitar rig.

Eric Clapton Artist Series Modeling Pedal

Crossroads

Do you need a whole mess o’ boogie for your guitar? Is your blues sounding a little too mellow yellow? Does your metal sound dead when you try to shred? DigiTech has the answer: Bad MonkeyTM produces the smooth natural character of an overdriven tube amp while maintaining your guitar’s distinct tone. Low and high tone controls give you the ability to boost or cut the bass and treble frequencies for just the right sound; the Screamin’ BluesTM is designed for guitarists who need a pedal that responds to playing dynamics. Playing lightly gives you a mild overdrive, but dialing up the gain and digging in hard makes it sing with ultra-rich harmonics and sustain; the multipurpose Hot HeadTM distortion pedal can dial in just a little dirt or make your amp sound like a full stack; the legendary Death MetalTM pedal is by far the most extreme distortion you will ever hear. Level, low, mid, and high tone controls provide flexible tone-shaping, so even though this distortion is over the top, your guitar is guaranteed to cut through. For a unique cutting-edge sound, the Grunge® provides the tones today’s music requires — whether it’s chunky rhythm, heavy grind, or amazing sustaining leads you’re after, the Grunge gets you these and everything in between.

Multi-effects Modeling Floor Processor It’s been eight years since the first PODs landed on Earth, holding inside them the exact replicas of many a signature guitar tone from rock’s most prominent players. Now, eight years later, after the POD people (Line 6) have successfully taken over the world of guitar and effects modeling, a new POD, the Floor POD has been sighted roaming the planet. Floor POD is a multi-effects floor processor with a built-in foot controller that delivers legendary Line 6 tone and features in a portable, easy-to-use package. The Floor POD features 12 of the most desired amp and cab models from the critically acclaimed POD 2.0, including the popular Insane model. Easily affordable for any guitarist who wants real-world pro sounds, Floor POD can be used as a simple multi-effects pedal, a complete direct-to-PA and recording solution, or the ultimate headphone practice partner. Line 6’s revolutionary Smart Control FX offers seven different effects types (two simultaneous), including phaser, chorus, flanger, tremolo, delay, and reverb. All effects can be easily tweaked and delay times can be adjusted using tap tempo. When it’s time to solo, you can instantly turn up and throw down by using the built-in volume/ wah pedal. The Floor POD also features 64 custom-made presets, three preset/channel footswitches, an onboard tuner, a CD/MP3 player input jack for jamming, stereo 1/4" outputs, chrome knobs, and a heavy duty chrome handlebar for the guitarist on the move.

You’re playing guitar in a cover band doing 40 songs a night, each with a signature guitar sound that was developed in the studio from a huge selection of amps, cabinets, and effects. Somehow, you have to duplicate all those sounds. How would you like 42 amps, 24 cabinets, and 94 stompbox and studio effects all laid at your feet? That’s the power of the PODXT Live! It’s the ultimate multi-effect pedal for any guitar amp, a complete direct P.A. solution, and a creative recording device for studio guitar work. Aside from an extensive assortment of reverb choices, PODXT Live includes a must-have collection of distortion, compressor, chorus, flanger, rotary, synth, filter, and delay effects.

“British” High-gain Amplifier Distortion

Vintage Overdrive Distortion Pedal

Amp Selector/Combiner

The Tonebone Hot British takes you from fat, hot-wired Marshall tones to huge scooped mid sounds. Based on high-gain amplifier designs, it’s tailored to extract ultra-rich harmonics and saturated tube settings without mud or noise. The EQ settings allow the player to dial in the type of tones that create everything from chunky rhythms to sizzling lead solos. Even when pushing the Hot British beyond the limits, the natural dynamics and feel of the player are still heard. ONLY $10/mo.

The Tonebone Classic from Radial is an extremely flexible distortion pedal with three drive settings and a variable drive control so you can dial in anything from dirt to drastic and everywhere in between. Even at high distortion settings, you can turn your guitar level down and the Classic cleans up naturally and without noise, hum, or buzz. At higher settings, notes remain distinct and the natural tone of the guitar shines through.

The Radial JX•2 Switchbone is an AB-Y box that’s designed for an electric guitar to drive two amplifiers at the same time without introducing noise, hum, or coloration into the signal path. The Boost Switch increases volume for solos or switching from using both amps down to one. The primary signal path is pure Class A for minimal coloration. The JX•2 does not use chips or op amps in the primary audio circuit — the main concern is sound quality, and the JX-2 truly delivers! ONLY $10/mo.

Banshee The Banshee gives the classic “talk box” a much-needed update! This is just like the one you remember seeing on stage at that Aerosmith concert circa 1977, with the mouth tube. But unlike early units, the Banshee is extremely reliable, with its own preamp, amp, and horn driver. Just plug in your Banshee and you’re ready to make your guitar sing, talk, and create freaky sounds.

The Demonizer stompbox/DI, powered by two 12AX7s, coaxes anything from mild crunch to demonic saturation from your guitar. Two cascading gain stages are followed by a proprietary tube output stage providing the sound and the feel of a tube amp. As a DI, the Demonizer offers some of the most realistic emulated amp tones we’ve heard. The opto-compression shapes the amplitude and envelope of the pre-distortion signal, giving you fat clean tones and ultra-smooth distortions. This is truly an innovative step in the evolution of direct recording guitar. ONLY $10/mo.

USA Big Muff Pi Classic Analog Effects Pedals Electro-Harmonix effects boxes are designed with the hard-rocking, hard-touring musician in mind. The USA Big Muff Pi is the distortion/sustainer used by Hendrix and Santana in the ‘60s for that sweet crunch and never-ending sustain. The Big Muff Pi can also do an incredible job providing distortion for a bass guitar. The Small Stone is a phase shifter with extremely simple controls — a single knob — used to dial in the perfect amount of swirling, 3D harmonics. A simple flip of the Color switch triggers some really crazy modulation! This pedal is a must for psychedelic rock, and the phase shifting takes on a much more musical quality than that of similarly priced phase shifting units.

The OC-3 is the world’s first compact pedal with true Polyphonic Octave effects that can be adjusted to play within a specific note range. It also includes the original OC-2 mode, which is capable of producing notes one and two octaves down. A new Drive mode adds distortion to octave notes for a fatter, more aggressive tone. For tone-shaping, the OC-3 features direct level, Octave 1 level, Octave 2 level, and mode selector knobs. Take your bass lower than you thought it could go with the OC-3 Super Octave.

BOSS took their time developing the new GT-6B processor for bass, and once you hear it, you’ll know that it was well worth the wait. In fact, you can hear it in every component from its 24-bit converters to its true analog bypass. A balanced XLR output and coaxial digital output ensure the highest sound quality when recording. The GT-6B offers six classic bass amp models, speaker cabinets, overdrive/distortion, wah, and compression modeling. New performance effects include an auto slap feature, which creates automatic slap patterns, plus sound-onsound looping for creating loops “on the fly,” even fat synth bass sounds with killer tracking.

With effects specifically designed for bass tones, the BP200 features 16 amp and stompbox models as well as a whole host of effects for unending sound-sculpting. The BP80 is a modeling multi-effects processor for the performing bassist. Powered by DigiTech’s AudioDNA DSP processor, the BP80 features amp and stompbox models and other effects for creating your own signature sound. The BP50 uses 24-bit A/D/A converters to ensure accurate tonal reproduction between inputs and outputs.

Looking for an aggressive bass sound with some snarl? The ODB-3 delivers the bone-quaking bass distortion you hear so often in so many different genres. This pedal sounds fat and nasty — a tone that says, “Don’t mess with me!” The LMB-3 limiter/enhancer helps eliminate harsh volume peaks, even when bass players use dynamic slap and pop techniques. The CEB-3 chorus pedal gives your bass a thicker, more compelling sound. The GEB-7 is a 7-band EQ created specifically for bass frequency ranges. The SYB-5 faithfully reproduces the unique sonic characteristics of classic analog synthesizers.

The ME-50B puts world-class bass effects in a rugged floor unit with easy pedal-style control. Effects are divided into six sections; compressor/limiter, master, filter/tone, drive/synth, delay/modulation, and expression pedal, giving bassists a range of unique and powerful BOSS tones including a new “Hi Band” effect, which creates a distorted sound on the high frequencies while keeping the lower frequencies intact, “Octave Up,” and more. Using the new kick drum function, players can tap in their own kick drum and create loops over the beat. If that’s not enough, check out the new sound hold function, which lets you endlessly sustain a low note while playing over it. The ME-50B takes bass playing to a whole new level.

Put the “acoustic” back in your acoustic/electric. The AX3A is a foot-switchable processor that comes AX10A standard with a whopping 43 modeled effects inherited from Korg’s mighty AX Series. There are also ten mic and body resonance effects onboard that replicate the miking setups that experienced guitarists use (minus the screaming feedback). There’s even a notch-filter effect that cuts the point at which acoustic feedback occurs. The AX3A ships with 40 factory presets and 40 editable user programs, plus a chromatic tuner with a mute switch.

Selecting the right strings for your guitar or bass is every bit as personal as selecting the instrument itself — the elements of feel, musical style, and player’s physicality are all factors that must be taken into account. As such, a certain amount of experimentation is necessary. The subtle differences in the way a string feels, how long it sustains, and its durability are determined by a number of factors including raw material type, tensile strength, and most importantly, the size-ratio of the wrap to core wires. Since each string manufacturer has their own unique formula resulting in a different feel and sound, Sweetwater carries the widest possible range of strings from all the top string companies and guitar makers. If you need help finding the perfect strings to suit your instrument and playing style, call your Sales Engineer today!

Finger-Ease

The Pro-Winder is ergonomically designed to be your all-in-one solution for changing guitar strings. Not only do you get a quality peg-winder, but a string clipper as well, in a single, self-contained unit. The Pro-Winder will fit virtually all guitars, banjos, and mandolins.

Wood has to resonate in order to produce sound, and a guitar that’s covered in grime not only looks dull, but it sounds dull since the wood can’t vibrate properly. But you can’t just use any polish. This Gibson Guitar Polish is formulated for nitro-cellulose lacquer. Use with a Gibson Polish Cloth for best results.

Guitar strings are subject to airborne corrosives that cause them to tarnish and pit, making them more difficult to play. Finger-Ease spray allows your fingers to glide without friction along the strings, cutting down on fudged notes and sore fingertips. Finger-Ease does all this without mucking up your strings or fretboard.
