Faith Jupiter Trembesi Acoustic Guitar Review

Faith Jupiter Trembesi Acoustic Guitar Review

This review was submitted by Guitar Jar contributor: SlackDogDay

I just started a new project, a duo with a female vocalist and realised that my trusty old Eko Ranger with under-saddle Piezo and no on board pre-amp was just not up to the job.

Fender Double Fat HH Stratocaster Review

Fender Double Fat HH Stratocaster Review

This review was submitted by Guitar Jar contributor: Jonezee

Quite a funny story why I ended up with this guitar… about ten or so years ago I had been out on the booze all night and was making my way home on the train about 7 in the morning.

Bizarrely, on my travels I bumped in to my bass player from the band we play in, who was just finishing his night shift. It was a gorgeous summers day so we decided the best thing to do was meet back up later and spend it in the beer garden of a pub.
