The Epiphone Les Paul Standard  brings you the authentic style, playability and tone reminiscent of a Gibson Les Paul at a price that makes this a great value instrument of outstanding quality. The Standard is the first in Epiphone's range of Les Paul models to bring you a carved maple top, cream binding and trapezoid position inlays in addition to covered dual Alnico V pickups.
The gloss black headstock proudly displays its mother of pearl Epiphone logo above a large golden Les Paul signature label. A set of chrome Grover tuners respond effortlessly to any string adjustment and are sure to stay accurately in tune for extended periods of playing. The set Mahogany neck runs seamlessly into the single cutaway of the solid Mahogany body that shines from behind in its gloss finish. A brilliant cream binding runs around both the front of the guitar, and the Rosewood fingerboard that matches the traditional scratchplate.

We are excited to introduce a New range of guitars from Vintage. Vintage Zip electric guitars  are energetic and exciting, with all of the no nonsense go-for-it attitude that makes music fun to play, and can be seen in great bands from 50's rock `n' roll to today's Arctic Monkeys! With a bold and feisty style involving loud colours and inviting curves, and a lightweight easy-play design, the Zip guitars are causing a stir. If you are not one for snobbish jargon or technical tweaking then you're sure to get on well with a Zip – they want to make as much noise as you do without worrying about which pickup to select. Just plug in and you're ready to go straight away even if no one else in the band is! The Zip guitars have a semi hollow body making them nice and light so you can jump around without worrying about damaging anything (including yourself!).

Vintage Zip electric guitars  start from just £129 including free next day delivery!

The Vintage V1005 active bass sees a revolution in guitar design that puts it in league with instruments of the highest quality whilst still bearing an affordable price tag. This bass guitar has a neck-through body, meaning that the neck and midsection are formed from a single section of wood, rather than having a bolt on, or glued in joint. This construction gives it excellent sustain and strong tonal qualities that can be harnessed using the active electronics. The Vintage V1005 features one double and one single coil pickup together with a two-band active EQ, blend and master volume control so it has plenty of tonal diversity on offer. As if that wasn't enough this bass guitar is decked out with gold hardware and a tiger eye quilted maple top!

The Vintage
V1005 active Bass guitar  is just £299 including free next day delivery!

If you mainly play your guitar at home or in the bedroom and get on reasonably well with the neighbours then excessive volumes from a guitar amp may not be necassary. The Kustom 10watt guitar practise amp  would be fine for a beginner at home and produces a great clean sound with built in reverb. There is also a seperate overdrive channel with its own volume control.  At only £59 it will leave you enough money to invest in a multi effects unit that will take you to new levels in exciting guitar playing

Maybe its time you replaced the volume potentiometer!
"What?" I hear you say!
It isn't as tricky as it sounds - The Potentiometer, or Pot for short, is a really simple device that feeds the curent from the pickups to the amp. they become scratchy and intermittant with age and so by replacing them you can get your guitar sounding as good as new.
We stock all kinds of volume pots for electric guitars , including tone controls and push pull pots too!

The Hiwatt G200R Amp Head  features two channels – clean and overdrive, each with separate tone and volume controls. In addition to these settings, the overdrive channel can be switched between two distortion settings via an optional footswitch, the FS301 available from us, for a greater range of sounds whilst playing – this gives you three different tonal settings to switch between during a song without having to adjust any dials. The overdrive channel also features a contour control that can be used to alter mid frequencies for dynamic tonal variation. A master volume dial controls volume on both channels and reverb can be added via a master dial for atmospheric sounds.
At only £299 just think of the money you'll save by not going to the gym now you're lugging this chunky equipment around. For the ultimate in style and tone use with the

Laminated Vs. Solid Top

The front, back and sides of acoustic guitars can be made from different combinations of Laminated or solid woods. The top material is generally considered to have the greatest effect on sound quality and so a solid topped guitar with laminated back and sides will sound better than an all laminated guitar. The quality of a guitar's sound increases the more solid its materials, and so guitars with solid top, back, and sides should give rise to the best quality sounds. Solid bodies also last much longer and can even increase in sound quality as the woods mature with age.

If you've followed Pantera's and Damageplan's rise to the top of the metal heap, then you're already well aware of the searing, crushing, metal massacre that is Dimebag Darrell's signature guitar tone. Now, that tone is yours with the Seymour Duncan SH-13 Dimebucker.
The Dimebucker uses a powerful ceramic magnet coupled with stainless steel blades for boot kickin' attitude. The secret to the Dimebucker's hard hitting crunch, is the small amount of metal mass in the core of the pickup. This allows the SH-13 to have both high DC resistance and a high resonant peak.
The result is a high-output, agressive humbucker with lots of treble bite and clarity, as well as punchy bass response and exceptional dynamics. The Dimebucker is perfect for heavy rock and metal; and it rocks equally hard with tube and solid-state amps.

Dime bucker            £75
