New Martin guitars arrived last week!
In this picture you see our own Mike Machine holding the Martin D-28 and the HD-28. Both guitars arrived last week. Martin doesn’t like shipping much during the coldest part of the winter so as you can imagine, we’re quite happy to have received them. Also in the order was a Martin D16-GT.

V-TOPIA
V-Topia is a duo consisting of David “Tweeky” Åhlund from Sweden (synthesizers) and Michael Schack from Belgium (V-Drums). Touring around the world as promoters and demonstrators of Roland musical instruments, they have developed a trademark sound, containing elements from everything from hip-hop to electronica and metal.
Here is a short video demonstrating their great creativity, energy and chemistry!
The Duke of Loops
THE DUKE OF LOOPS is a solo performer that fuses the organic nature of the classical guitar and voice with looping technology to create jazz infused ambient grooves. He is the recent winner of the 2010 Canadian Boss Loop Station Championship.

Roland Guitar Synthesizer GR-55
This effect processor is really revolutionary!
The Roland GR-55 is a revolution in guitar synthesis, with features never before available in any guitar processor. In terms of speed, it’s the fastest ever. It’s also the most accurate, thanks to newly developed pitch-detection technology. As for sound, the triple-core generator houses a world-class array of virtual guitars, basses, amps, and synth voices, enabling tones and textures that have never been heard before.
Here is a really interesting demo and the soundscapes it can create.
Back from Namm 2011!
We saw some great new products at the Namm Show in Anaheim. Over the next couple of days, we will be updating the site with video clips and pictures from the show. Stay tuned!
