VG Strat Q&A 

VG Stratocaster 

The VG Stratocaster ® includes all of the features you would 

expect from Fender’s flagship American Series Strat ® — handrolled 

fingerboard for broken-in feel, calibrated pickups, staggered 

machine heads, and reduced body cavity routing (more wood equals 

more tone). At first glance, the VG Stratocaster looks like a stock 

alder American Series Strat, which is what it is deep down inside. But 

at closer inspection you notice there’s certainly something going on 

under the hood. The pickguard sports four knobs rather than three, 

there’s a battery light, and a Roland GK pickup — and that is where 

this Strat really departs from the norm. 

Two knobs control 

volume and tone with 

the other two knobs 

opening the door 

to amazing sonic 

possibilities. The “T” 

knob selects 

the tuning 

with standard, 

Drop D, Open 

G, D Modal, and Power at your fingertips! Instantly 

Baritone tunings access which tuning and voicing 

available is currently being output by the VG 

along with Strat with these two mini-knobs. 

a 12-string 

sound. The 

“M” knob accesses faithful models of humbuckers, a 

Telecaster, an acoustic guitar, or a Strat. This modeling is 

made possible by the Roland GK pickup installed between 

the bridge and the bridge pickup and the onboard Roland 

VG modeling electronics. This Strat is a dream come true for 

the performing guitarist. Now a single guitar can instantly 

change tunings or models with the twist of a knob. To 

ensure that the legions of Stratocaster fans feel right at 

home on the VG Strat, Fender packaged all these innovative 

features inside an American Series Strat body with a 

familiar Strat neck so the feel is just what you’d expect from 

a Fender. 

Colors: Black, 3-color Sunburst

Q: Is the VG Strat a guitar synth? 

A: It’s not a guitar synth — it’s an 

American Series Strat with onboard 

Roland VG technology. There’s no need 

for a synth interface, and no MIDI out 

— it’s a fully functional, stand-alone 

electric guitar with additional built-in 

modeling capabilities. 

Q: What other equipment do I 

need to operate the VG Strat? 

A: Just what you’d need for a standard 

guitar: a regular guitar cable, an amp, 

and four AA batteries. 

Q: Why is there a “virtual” 

Stratocaster on the VG Strat? 

A: The modeled Strat sound mimics 

an ash-bodied Strat for more sonic 

options, and is free of 60-cycle 

single-coil hum! Plus you can use the 

modeled tunings with it. 

The VG Strat: 

What’s Inside? 

The Roland GK pickup opens the door to 37 

different tones with the twist of a knob. Here’s an 

overview of what’s hiding inside the VG Strat. 

Models: 

• Strat — with a lively ash body 

• Telecaster — plenty of “spank” 

• Dual humbuckers — fat and beefy 

• Acoustic guitar — five variations 

Tunings: 

• Drop D 

• Open G 

• D Modal (DADGAD) 

• Baritone 

• 12-string guitar 

The magic of the VG Stratocaster 

lies within the Roland GK pickup 

and the onboard VG electronics, 

which enables it to accurately model 

different electric or acoustic guitars 

and quickly switch tunings at the 

turn of a knob.

THE SWEETWATER DIFFERENCE — EXPERIENCE IT TODAY! (800) 222-4700 

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. 

Eric Johnson 

Texas guitarist Eric Johnson is known as a 

perfectionist, and this may just be the perfect Strat for you! 

The Eric Johnson Stratocaster, the brainchild of Eric himself, 

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. Other unique appointments featured on Eric’s signature axe include a 

custom neck plate engraved with an “EJ” and Kokopelli etching, a 4-spring tremolo, and 

countersunk pickup mounting screws. 

Colors: 2-color Sunburst, White 

Blonde, Red.

Stevie Ray 

Vaughan Strat 

Sometimes you can spot a guitar a mile away and immediately 

associate it with the player who made it famous. Here’s a prime example! Stevie Ray 

collaborated with Fender just before his untimely death to produce the stellar-sounding 

Stevie Ray Vaughan Strat. Now you can recreate the sound of Stevie Ray’s Texassoaked 

blues, with Fender Texas Special pickups for tone, jumbo frets for dramatic blues 

bends, and Stevie’s favored inverted left-hand vintage tremolo unit (a nod to one of his 

heroes, Jimi Hendrix). 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.

Eric Clapton Strat 

There are few names in the guitar world that 

command as much respect as Eric Clapton. The 

Fender Eric Clapton Strat ® has been updated to create one of 

the most versatile Strats ever. It starts with a lightweight solid alder body with a slick 

black polyurethane finish and a single-ply white pickguard (just like Clapton’s famed 

“Blackie”). The maple neck and fingerboard sport a 9.5" radius and soft “V” profile 

for playing comfort. 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.

Jeff Beck 

Stratocaster 

Jeff Beck’s journey of musical discovery has left a distinct mark on 

modern guitar history, and his guitar of choice is the Fender Strat. The updated Artist 

Series Jeff Beck Stratocaster reflects the significant changes Jeff has made to his 

guitar to accommodate his constantly evolving style. You’ll notice the new neck shape is a 

softer “C,” not as large or deep as Jeff’s previous choice, plus there’s a contoured heel for 

easier access to the higher registers. The guitar features the new Fender Special Design 

dual-coil ceramic Noiseless pickups and 5-way switching for a variety of tonal options. 

Color: Olympic White.

Jimmie Vaughan 

Tex-Mex Strat 

Stevie Ray Vaughan credited his older brother Jimmie, guitarist with The 

Fabulous Thunderbirds, as the one who inspired him to play guitar, and this hot 

Jimmie Vaughan Tex-Mex Strat® will inspire you too! 

The alder body is loaded with Tex-Mex single-coils with an especially hot bridge pickup 

and special wiring for that signature Jimmy Vaughan sound, and the maple neck 

provides excellent playability. Far more than just “Stevie Ray’s brother,” Jimmy Vaughan 

is a guitar icon in his own right, and this easy-playing, amazingly affordable axe is a 

great tribute to a fine player!

and blues great Robert Cray’s signature on the headstock. Cray is known for his smooth 

style, and his guitar tones run the gamut from smoky and silky to downright smoldering 

— and now you can get his tool of choice to get those sounds. If all this weren’t enough, 

the price is definitely a “strong persuader” for you to get your hands on this Strat!

American 

Standard 


The Fender Stratocaster has been an instantly 

recognizeable icon for well over half a century. 

There are those that might argue that there’s 

now way to improve on the time-proven 

design, but they’ve never laid their hands on 

the American Standard Stratocaster. 

This is the latest evolution of an American 

classic, sporting several redesigned features 

that prime this icon for the 21st century. 

Among the new features are a new neck 

and body finish, a new bridge, Alnico V 

pickups, and a Fender-exclusive high-tech 

molded case by SKB. The American 

Standard Strat includes classic Fender 

touches and fan-favorites such as 

hand-rolled fingerboard edges and 

staggered tuning machines. Available 

in a variety of colors, these upgrades 

position the American Standard 

Stratocaster as a modern classic!

Standard Strat 

The fast-action maple neck, comfort-contoured 

alder body, three single-coil pickups, and 

standard synchronized tremolo — this is where the tradition 

began and still carries on today in the remarkably playable, pleasantly 

affordable Standard Stratocaster. This new version has a high-mass bridge block 

for improved sustain and tone, and shielded body cavities for reduced hum and quieter 

operation than you’d get with a vintage 1950s Strat. Gig bag included. 

Colors: Midnight Wine. 


Standard Roland-Ready 


Now Strat lovers can access all the incredible features 

of the Roland guitar synth and modeling modules 

by choosing the surprisingly affordable Standard 

Roland-Ready Stratocaster. It has all the features 

of the Standard Stratocaster — a fast action maple neck, 

comfort-contoured body, three single-coil pickups, and 

synchronized tremolo — and adds the convenience 

of a built-in Roland GK-2A pickup system, allowing 

you to drive peripherals directly from the guitar’s 

on-board controls. The original Strat had three single 

coil pickups, so it was able to produce sounds 

that no other guitar could deliver. The 

Roland Ready Strat comes standard with 

a modern 5-way blade switch, making it 

easy to access all the standard Strat pickup 

combinations. A 3-position mini-toggle 

switch selects between guitar only, synth 

only, or a combination of both. Two push 

buttons allow you to send commands (like 

preset up or down) to the synth module. 

Three standard single-coil pickups 

deliver the classic Strat sounds that 

have made it famous, with all the 

“spank” and sparkle you’d expect, 

but adds the GK-2 pickup with its own 

set of controls for incredible versatility.

The Fender Custom Shop is celebrating 20 years of building dream guitars for the cream of the guitar crop. From faithful 

reproductions of classic axes of the past to fully tweaked customs built to an individual’s personal specifi cations, few instruments 

command the level of respect afforded Fender Custom Shop models. There are two different degrees of Fender Custom Shop models: 

Stock Team-built and Team-built Custom. Stock Team-built instruments are handcrafted by an elite team of veteran builders 

and offer a series of stock instruments that incorporate the Custom Shop’s most requested features and confi gurations of 

the past few years. With a Team-built Custom guitar, you can pick and choose any feature you want. If you can dream it, 

they can build it! A select few instruments — known as Masterbuilt instruments — are handbuilt by the Master Luthiers, 

the same luthiers that build custom instruments for the likes of Eric Clapton, Keith Richards, and Merle Haggard. 

Stratocaster Pro 

The folks at the Fender Custom shop crafted a beautiful Strat that’s 

made for the pro player. The Stratocaster Pro’s select alder body 

and “C”-shaped maple neck offer that classic Strat feel, with a 

difference: this instrument includes a special neck heel that 

was previously available only on theJeff Beck Signature 

Stratocaster. You also get a big-peg headstock, Custom 

Classic tremolo, locking tuners, and a roller nut — this 

axe is built from the ground up to stay in tune during even 

the wildest gigs. The Stratocaster Pro also includes Fender’s 

own Greasebucket tone circuit and incredible Samarian 

Cobalt Noiseless pickups, which give you the Strat 

tone you want without the 60-cycle hum. This guitar 

gets Fenders’s “Closet Classic” treatment, which 

imparts the appearance of a classic, slightly used 

instrument.

This is a great guitar that represents the sound of rock n’ roll’s

Fender’s Custom Shop Time Machine Series offers instruments that are built just like 

they were in their respective years. Original materials and tooling are used to make sure that 

every instrument is period-correct. The Time Machine Series is available in three distinct fi nish 

packages: N.O.S. (New Old Stock) instruments are conditioned as if the guitar was discovered in a 

warehouse after many years, never played and showing no signs of age or wear and tear; Closet 

Classic guitars show their age a bit, with minor dings and scratches and slightly aged hardware; Relic models look as if the guitar has been 

used nearly daily for years. The fi nish is heavily worn, the hardware is rusty, and overall the guitar looks as though it has seen years touring 

and playing clubs. We have access to Fender’s entire Custom Shop line, so if you don’t see your axe of choice, give us a call and we’ll get it! 

Merle Haggard 

Signature Telecaster 

The “Telecaster twang” is synonymous with country music, 

and few players had an impact on modern country like Merle 

Haggard. The Merle Haggard Signature Telecaster 

merges these two country legends into a truly stunning tone 

machine. The maple center block is flanked by tonechambered 

select alder wings and topped by a figured maple 

top with ivoroid binding. Electronically, a pair of Texas Special 

single coils are wired to a 4-way switch that offers access to 

the neck and bridge pickups individually along with pairings 

in both series and parallel for more sonic options. The neck is 

made from figured maple and is set rather than the Fenderstandard 

bolt-on. Gold hardware and a mother-of-pearl 

“Tone Dog” headstock further accentuate this rocker!

'52 Heavy Relic Telecaster 

The Tele has been an icon in all genres of music since its inception. From 

rock to country to blues and beyond, the “Tele spank” is unmistakeable. 

The ‘52 Heavy Relic Telecaster sports a traditional ash body, 

single-ply black pickguard, and a 1-piece 10/’56 “boat neck” 

soft V-shaped maple neck — all treated to look as though the 

instrument had withstood years of heavy use. Electronically, 

this blast from the past is loaded with Custom Shop “Twisted” 

Tele and Broadcaster pickups with a modern wiring circuit. 

Aged plastic parts and rusty hardware complete the look.

'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. This is a stunning recreation of a 

Fender classic.

Joe Strummer Telecaster 

Fender celebrates the life and music of punk icon Joe 

Strummer with the Joe Strummer Telecaster. At the 

helm of one of the most influential politico-punk bands of 

all time, Strummer and the Clash used his Tele to spread 

their own brand of “Revolution Rock,” a sentiment that is 

echoed with the engraving of the phrase on the neckplate. 

The Joe Strummer Tele is wrapped in a road-worn distressed 

black finish with gray primer showing through — a natural 

byproduct of Joe’s constantly evolving customization of his 

trusty axe.

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.

50th Anniversary 1958 Les Paul 

1958 was a pivotal year for Gibson. The Explorer, Flying V, and 

ES-335 all first saw the light of day, as did the first non-Goldtop Les Paul, 

which is what this limited run Paul commemorates. Limited to just 

200 instrument worldwide, the 50th Anniversary 1958 Les Paul 

celebrates the birth of the Les Paul Standard, arguably the most popular 

Les Paul ever built. This beauty is constructed from a mahogany back 

with a carved, figured maple top sporting a washed cherry Murphyaged 

finish and single-ply cream binding. The long tenon mahogany 

neck is crowned with a rosewood fingerboard and sports a 

period-appropriate 1950s neck profile. Vintage tulip tuners 

reside in the holly veneer headstock, with trapezoid neck inlays 

and ABR-1 bridge and aluminum tailpiece rounding out the 

physical features. Electronically, this Les Paul is loaded with 

Burstbucker 1 and 2 pickups and CTS pots with bumblebee 

capacitors.

SG Special Faded 3-Pickup 

Originally introduced in 1961, the SG Special continues to offer 

an exciting combination of looks, functionality, and value that 

has made it a much-loved guitar for decades. The SG Special 

Faded 3-pickup model gives you the playability, tone, and 

ornery charm that made the SG famous, with a couple of 

twists thrown in. Three humbucking pickups give you high 

output and great tonal options, great for everything 

from screaming metal leads 

to mellow, bluesy runs. The 

slim mahogany body sports a 

worn finish for that “broken 

in” look — if you didn’t 

know better, you’d swear 

it had seen quite a bit of 

quality stage time. Likewise, 

the Flying V Faded 3-pickup 

model carries on the retro-futuristic 

vibe of a classic axe, with the same 

3-pickup configuration and finish 

featured on the SG Faded. 

The Flying V’s angular and 

balanced design makes it 

both eye-catching and easy 

to play. 

SG Standard 

The Gibson SG body style has remained in 

production nonstop since it was first introduced 

in 1961. The combination of a double cutaway for upper-fret 

access plus the sustain of a mahogany body is still a favorite of guitar 

players of all styles. The rounded profile mahogany neck has a rosewood fingerboard 

with pearloid trapezoid inlays. Schaller green key tuners grace the headstock. Dual 

humbuckers, a rosewood fingerboard, and a Tune-O-Matic bridge make 

ONLY $48/mo. 

this an all-around great axe.

that eventually won the hearts of guitarists in all genres, with some 

notable players being Angus Young of AC/DC and Eric Clapton during his days with

with two hot, coverless humbuckers, rounded mahogany neck, and gold hardware, 

the X-plorer is designed to “wow” with its looks and its tone. A rock classic that gained 

popularity in the ‘70s, which is the era that this particular model is based on, the 

X-plorer has been used extensively for everything from blues to metal. The humbuckers 

provide tons of sustain while the mahogany body sweetens up the sound.

Originally introduced in 1958 and reissued ten years later, the original 

Flying V was so far ahead of its time that it didn’t catch on until the late ‘60s 

and ‘70s. Now the ‘67 version lives on as the V Factor, which features a rounded

Dave Grohl DG-335 

A new addition to Gibson’s Inspired By Series is the Dave 

Grohl DG-335. Grohl surprised everyone when he 

stepped out from behind the drumkit after the demise of 

Nirvana to write and record the Foo Fighters’ first album. 

The thick, harmonically rich tones of the first 

Foo record instantly cemented Grohl as a guitar 

hero. Now, some 12 years later, Grohl and the 

other Fighters of Foo are still going strong, 

churning out power-pop rooted by Dave’s stellar 

songwriting. Based on Dave’s beloved Gibson Trini 

Lopez guitar, this ES-335-style guitar boasts 

diamond-shaped f-holes and a non-reverse 

Firebird-style headstock to create a truly 

unique instrument. A pair of Burstbucker

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. 

Elitist '65 Casino 

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). The Elitist ‘65 Casino is equipped 

with a maple body, mahogany set neck, and a rosewood fingerboard, which imparts a 

warm midrange sound. The custom-wound pickups add to its classic tonality.

rounded cutaway and shorter, fast neck for quick runs and extended chords. Equipped

Custom Series 

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. Paul Reed 

Smith took the Custom 24 to his first trade show in 1985, 

and it’s still the core of the PRS line. 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 

neck pickups. 

The first major change to the PRS Custom model 

came in 1993 with the introduction of the Custom 

22, which was, in effect, a production version 

of the company’s upscale Dragon guitar. The 

Custom 22 shipped with Dragon II pickups, a 

wide-fat neck carve and came standard with 

a stop tailpiece, 5-way rotary pickup selector, 

and pearl and abalone moon inlays. A PRS 

tremolo and a wide-thin neck carve are nocost 

options. Upgrades include premium grade 

flame or quilt maple tops and abalone bird inlays. 

The PRS Custom series guitars perform flawlessly to 

deliver an evenness of tonal color, amplitude, and 

feel, no matter where you are on the fingerboard. 

Colors: Custom 22 Dark Cherry Sunburst Custom 24 Emerald 

Green. Call for more options. 

CE Series 

During the music explosion of the ‘70s, guitar 

makers were rushing to produce enough guitars to 

meet demands. Due to sloppy procedures, the bolt-on 

neck got a bad rap — when executed properly, the 

bolt-on design provides excellent tonal transfer and 

ease of repair. That’s what makes the CE 22 such an 

outstanding value and exceptional instrument. Paul 

Reed Smith is known for using innovative, quality 

construction techniques while respecting the history 

of the instrument; he put this combination to 

good use in the design of this guitar. 

The CE 22 is a true player’s guitar, with a full 

tone, incredible finish, and comfortable neck 

shape. A beautiful carved figured maple top 

is paired with a mahogany back, while the 

bolt-on 25"-scale rock maple neck sports a 

22-fret rosewood fingerboard. The CE 22 

is capable of a wide range of great tones, 

thanks in part to Dragon II bass and 

treble humbucking pickups with a rotary 

selector. A PRS tremolo and locking tuners 

round out the features on the great-sounding, 

amazing-looking CE 22.

Santana IV 

Carlos Santana’s love for PRS goes back to the 

early days of Paul Reed Smith’s guitar-building 

days. It’s a fruitful relationship that’s resulted in several 

great signature guitars, including the new Santana IV. This 

double-cutaway showcases an exquisite carved flame maple top, with a mahogany back, 

mahogany “Santana” wide-fat neck, and a 24-fret rosewood fingerboard. The electronics 

are fantastic, too: Santana MD Treble and Bass pickups feature volume and tone 

controls, plus a 3-way toggle selector. The new Mastering Voice Control provides even

SE Custom 

Semi-Hollow 

Paul Reed Smith guitars are known for being as visually 

striking as they are great to play. Every detail is refined 

with tone and playability in mind. The distinctive PRS 

SE Custom Semi-Hollow guitar lets you tap into the 

signature PRS tone and arresting style at an affordable 

price. This looker features a semi-hollow mahogany 

body with a single sound hole, paired with a maple 

top. This combination of tonewoods combines to create 

a sound reminiscent of larger-bodied semi-hollows, 

but keeps the body size more on par with traditional 

solidbody designs.

is topped with a rosewood fretboard 

with gorgeous PRS-design moon inlays. 

Electronically, the SE Custom Semi-Hollow

Smith tone and quality. 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 stoptail bridge. 

Designed to take full advantage of the 

resonant properties of the guitar, the

transmission of string vibration to the 

guitar body and makes set-up a breeze! 

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

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.

Brian Setzer Tribute 

This is no ordinary “artist signature” tribute guitar — this one’s 

true to the original, right down to the last detail. Gretsch introduces 

the Custom Shop Limited Edition Brian Setzer Tribute, a 

painstaking recreation of the ‘59 6120 Setzer used during the heyday 

of the Stray Cats. It could be argued that Setzer was responsible for 

bringing Gretsch back into the public eye when the Stray Cats first hit 

the airwaves in the ‘80s, and he’s been rockin’, rollin’, and swingin’ 

with Gretsch ever since. In honor of Setzer’s original instrument, 

only 59 of these amazing tribute guitars are being offered. This 

single-cutaway hollowbody features a laminated maple top 

and body, hard rock maple neck, two TV Jones ® Classic 

pickups, an ebony fingerboard with thumbnail fret 

markers, and a Bigsby tremolo. Believe it or not, every 

sticker and scratch you’d see on Setzer’s original can be 

found here — even the wear marks are recreated. And 

the hole that used to house a tone switch on Setzer’s 

6120? It’s here, too. The Custom Shop Limited Edition 

Brian Setzer Tribute comes complete with a ton of

twangy chores. Satin chrome locking Sperzel tuners and a chrome hardtail bridge add 

the finishing touches.

S 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 S470 Prestige is mahogany with a 

poplar burl top, a Wizard II Prestige 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. The

fretboard wizardry.

The Sound of Rock and Roll 

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? 

JVM 4-channel Series 

4-channel Tube Head 

Ultimate Marshall tone, unprecedented control! The 100-watt JVM410H all-tube head gives you four 

channels, each with three distinct modes: Green, Orange, and Red. The channels and modes combine 

for a whopping 12 unique amp sounds, allowing you to dial in everything from a clean, pristine tone 

(channel 1) to classic crunch (Plexi to JCM800 range, anyone?) on channel 2. From there, Marshall 

ups the ante with another gain channel, bringing you great metal and shred tones. The fourth 

channel adds even more gain (!), unleashing even more rich harmonics and blanketing sustain. Five 

ECC83 (12AX7 for us Yanks) preamp tubes and four EL34 power amp tubes are at the heart of this 

beast, which can be kept in check remotely with the included 6-way, fully programmable footswitch. 

The front panel of the JVM410H features the simple, logical kind of layout you’ve come to expect 

from Marshall, with dedicated Gain, EQ, Volume, and Reverb controls for each channel. A master 

section features dual Master Volume knobs, plus Resonance and Presence controls for quick tonal 

tweaks. The 1960 Series cabinets, loaded with four 12" Celestion speakers, offer an ideal match to 

this head. The 1960A is the angled, or “top” cab, while the 1960B is the straight-front bottom. Also 

available are the 1960AV and 1960BV cabinets, which contain Marshall/Celestion 70-watt Vintage

Fender, where amps began! 

'57 Amp 

Limited Edition 12-watt Handwired All-tube Amp 

At heart, Fender’s ‘57 Amp is a reissue of the revered Tweed Deluxe, an 

amp with the classic tone that helped propel Fender tube amps to the top 

of the “most wanted” list of guitarists the world over. The ‘57 Amp boasts 

the classic sound of a Tweed Deluxe, but rather than being covered in the 

skin commonly associated with a tweed amp, the ‘57 Amp is shrouded 

in a black “piano-lacquered” dovetail-joint maple cabinet. The original 

Tweed Deluxe amp of the 1950s is well known for being one of the finest 

tone machines ever devised. Fender’s ‘57 Amp ups the ante, updating the 

Tweed Deluxe with a 12" Celestion Alnico Blue speaker, and adding all-new 

knobs, handle, and other hardware. The vibe is very familiar, yet very new 

ONLY $84/mo. 

and exciting at the same time. Limited run of 300.

'57 Deluxe 

12-watt All-tube Combo Amp 

Knowing that vintage Fender tube amps are in short 

supply, Fender graciously releases the ‘57 Deluxe , 

a handwired all-tube tone machine that’s great for 

any style of rock, blues, or country. The pine cabinet 

is covered in genuine lacquered tweed with vintage 

brown/gold grille cloth. Two 12AX7 preamp tubes, along 

with a matched pair of Groove Tubes GT6V6 output tubes, 

provide the sound we’ve all grown to expect from vintage 

Fender tube amps. Fender also thoughtfully incorporated 

a 5Y3 rectifier tube, which adds natural tube compression 

and “sag” when the amp is pushed harder. The ‘57 

Deluxe boasts the classic sound of an original Fender 

Deluxe amp of the 1950s, which was a medium-powered 

amp that quickly gained favor with guitarists of the day 

and found its way onto countless live stages and recorded 

performances. The solid pine cabinet and 12" Jensen 

P-12Q speaker — just like the original — further 

contribute to the ‘57 Deluxe’s trademark sound.

Champion 

600 

5-watt All-tube Amp 

Fender’s 5-watt 

Champion 600 is 

small on size but big on 

tone and style, with a 6" 

speaker and classy 2-tone cosmetics. It’s great 

for practice or recording. The controls couldn’t be 

simpler — a single volume knob and an on/off switch. 

Fender added a higher-gain preamp circuit to boost the 

overdrive and high- or low-gain inputs for sonic options. 

This is a great no-fuss way to get classic Fender tube tone 

integrated into your setup. The original Champ was used 

on countless classic recordings from the ‘60s and is still 

used today. For tone-obsessed guitarists on a budget, the 

Champion 600 is a must have!

'65 Twin 

Reverb 

85-watt Vintage 

Reissue Tube Amp 

Keith Richards once 

said that Fender guitars 

sound their best through Fender 

amps, and the ‘65 Twin Reverb is a shining 

example of that. With 85 watts of pure Fender tube tone, 

the Twin Reverb is the epitome of the Fender clean sound, 

and gets nice and gritty, too. A pair of 12" Jensen C-12K 

speakers and tube-driven reverb and vibrato circuits 

complete this wildly popular vintage reissue from the 

company that defined American guitar amplification. 


'65 Deluxe Reverb 

22-watt All-tube Vintage Reissue 

With four 12AX7s, two 

12AT7s, two 6V6s, and 

a 5AR4 rectifier tube 

— not to mention that 

both the reverb and 

vibrato are tube-driven 

— the incredible 22-watt 

‘65 Deluxe ® Reverb 

just bleeds tube tone. A single 

12" speaker puts the finishing touches on the fat sounds 

conjured by this reissued classic. This is the perfect amp 

for anyone who craves pure Fender tone, but doesn’t need 

a ton of wattage. Black vinyl and silver grille cloth round 

out the vintage look of this beauty. 

Specs: 2-ch • 22W • 1 x 12" 

Blues Junior 

All-tube Combo 

The Blues Junior takes 

Fender’s popular 15-watt 

tube preamp and power 

amp platform (three 12AX7 

and two EL84 tubes) and 

unleashes it through a 12" 

Fender Special Design speaker. It also features spring 

reverb, flexible controls , and a footswitchable FAT circuit 

for a thick, overdriven lead sound. 


“I’ve used a variety of different tube amps and I love my 

Blues Junior. With its portability and punch, you can’t 

beat it. The “Fat” circuitry gives you that extra “creamy” 

tone for a killer blues or rock sound. 

Matt Adams, Sales Engineer, Ext. 1353 

Blues Deluxe Reissue 

Vintage Combo Amp 

Here’s a great throwback 

to a bluesier time — the 

Blues Deluxe Reissue! 

It’s a reissue of the 1993 

Fender “Tweed” series 

that takes a great old 

collectable 1950s Deluxe 

and customizes it with channel switching and reverb. 

It produces 40 watts into a single 12" Special Design 

speaker by Eminence, and features a bright switch, 

spring reverb, effects loop, cloth tweed covering, “Chicken 

Head” pointer knobs, and chrome control panel. The 

Tweed Blues Deluxe is a vintage-styled tube amp with 

“boutique” tone at mass-produced prices, and pro players 

in rock, country, and blues will get great results from this 

toneful reissue!

Guitar Amps 



Super-Sonic 

60-watt Tube Amp 

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 driving a single 12" speaker. 

The Vintage channel is based on the original circuits of the 1965 

Vibrolux and 1966 Bassman). The Drive channel offers creamy 

sustain and compression. 


Princeton Recording Amp 

15-watt, All-tube Amp with Speaker Emulated Output 

One of the most recorded amps in history, 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 Fender 

Princeton Recording Amp offers all the great tone and dynamics of 

the original, plus 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. 


Hot Rod Amps 

Deluxe and DeVille Combo Amps 

The world’s best-selling tube amps! Fender guitar amps are the 

sound of early American rock n’ roll. Based on classic designs, the 

Hot Rod Deluxe ® , embodies everything that has made the Fender 

sound so popular while adding modern flexibility. A 40-watt power 

amp utilizes two 6L6 Groove Tubes in the output section and three 

12AX7s in the preamp stage driving a Special Design Eminence 12" 

speaker. The 60-watt Hot Rod DeVille 212 is loaded with a pair of Fender 

Special Design Eminence speakers , an FX loop, Fender long-spring reverb, 

and a 3-channel footswitch. The Hot Rod DeVille 410 uses a quartet of 10" 

speakers. These amps just scream vintage Fender tone!

Cyber-Twin SE 

Circuit-modeling Tube Amp 

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.

totally independent channels that let you dial in any 

of 16 different amp types (including British, jazz, an 

acoustic-electric simulator, and several Fender models)

functions stageworthy. The 3-channel FM 212 R gives 

you the same wattage through the same 2 x 12" speaker

AC15H1TV 

15-watt, All-tube Handwired Combo 

Celebrate a half-century of incredible Vox tone in style 

with this unique, handwired amp! The AC15H1TV 

combines the EF86 preamp channel of 1958 with the 

Top Boost channel from 1963. Now you can take a trip 

through the golden age of Vox tone with one incredible 

amplifier! Other features include a half-power switch, 

single 12" Celestion Alnico “Blue” speaker, bass shift 

and brilliance switches, and vintage cabinet design. 

The AC15H1TV is fitted with a vintage-style “TV-front” 

cabinet covered in rich cream vinyl. You can get all the 

features of this great amp — sans speaker — in the

Vox’s AC30H2 handwired Heritage Collection amplifier 

commemorates the 50th anniversary of Vox guitar amps 

with a very special version of a legendary amp. Much like the 

AC15H1TV (at left), this combo combines the ‘58 EF86 preamp 

channel with 1963’s Top Boost channel for a sonic feast of tones 

only a Vox could provide — and remember: Thirty watts of Vox 

can be louder than 100 watts from some amps. The AC30H2 also 

includes two 12" Celestion Alnico “Blue” speakers, brilliance and 

bass shift switches, and a 

vinyl-covered cabinet with vintage looks. The AC30HH amplifier head puts the 

same great sound and 30 watts of tube (the Vox folks would say “valve”) bliss into 

a compact amp head, which matches perfectly with the 2 x 12" Vox Heritage 

Anniversary cabinet! This cab is covered in the same beautiful cream vinyl and

AD100VT 

Modeling Amplifier with Tube Power Section 

More and more recording artists and live performers are turning to 

modeling amplifiers to replace the ungainly multiple-amp setups they 

used to have to drag from gig to gig, session to session. It takes a pretty 

impressive amp to stand up to the scrutiny of the pros, but Vox has pulled 

it off. The amazingly versatile and powerful Vox AD100VT 2 x 12" combo 

amp gives you 11 different amp models, a ton of high-quality effects and 

presets, and tube response characteristics. The Vox Valve Reactor circuit 

uses an actual 12AX7 tube in the power section to provide real tube 

power amp response, allowing the AD100VT’s Class A, A/B, and negative 

feedback models to react realistically. Imagine the tonal variety you can take to the stage or studio, all packed inside an easy-to-transport combo! Eleven high-quality effects and 

two footswitchable channels give you maximum functionality and tonality, while quick, intuitive editing knobs allow storage of up to 11 presets on two channels. The AD100VT also

Lionheart L5T-112 

Class A Tube Combo 

Laney boasts a 40-year history of creating excellent 

amps that are built for the road, and have been seen 

behind some of the most influential guitarists in 

history, covering several genres. Now the British ampmaker 

brings you a Class A tube amplifier that’s simply 

brimming over with classic tone! 

Laney’s incredible Lionheart L5T-112 all-tube 1 x 

12" guitar combo amp gives you the ability to drive 

its power amp hard at reasonable volume levels. Its 

single-ended Class A design and 5-watt output make 

the Lionheart L5T-112 a great recording amp. It also 

features two channels (Clean and Drive), “Type 4” large-spring reverb, an 

EL84 power tube, and a single Celestion Heritage G12H speaker. Plug straight 

in and you’ll be amazed at the incredible tone and expressiveness you get 

from this amazing little amp! 

If you seek a more “stage-friendly” version with more wattage and a quartet 

of 10-inch speakers, check out the Lionheart L20T. Reminiscent of a classic 

4 x 10" from the past, the L20T responds well to single-coil pickups, giving you 

country-inspired clean tones. With humbuckers, you’ve got access to chunky 

chords and hot leads. 

In this day and age of “jack of all trades, master of none” wannabe amps, 

you’ll be rewarded instantly when you plug into these stunning combos. 

Both provide plenty of classic American-style spank, but can get down and 

dirty with the best of them. If you find your self genre-hopping in the studio 

or onstage but want true (not modeled) tube tone, the Lionheart series is a 

perfect solution.

MTS Series 

Modular Tube 

Amplifiers 

We all want an amp that’s as 

flexible as humanly possible, 

able to jump from style to style 

at the flip of a switch. Randall 

takes that concept a bit further with 

their MTS Series of modular tube amps. The genius behind the MTS 

amps is that you can mix and match your favorite flavors of amps, from British Invasion jangle to 

face-melting metal, and everything in between. The heart of the MTS series lies in the amp itself, with a 100-watt head 

(the RM100S) available. The RM100S will hold three, and incorporates 6L6s in the power amp section. 

And here’s where the real fun begins: choosing your modules. The MTS series of tube preamp modules offers a signature 

Dan Donegan module (MTS 1086), a George Lynch signature module (the aptly titled Mr. Scary), a trio of 

Kirk Hammet signature modules with Clean, Vintage, and Modern tones (for more Kirk Hammett inspired tones 

check out the KH120RHS and corresponding combo amp below). There’s also a whole host of modules that faithfully 

mimic some of the most sought-after amps from history, including both British amp manufacturers (Plexi, JTM, and 

Top Boost) that powered the rock revolution in the ‘60s, classic American clean tones (Blackface), modern metal 

favorites (Treadplate), and even boutique amps (XTC). If you prefer spank to crunch, the Clean module may just be 

the ticket. And if you want to get the max out of your RM100S head, add the matched RA412XLS 4 x 12" cabinet.

made for — and used by — the one and only Edward 

Van Halen! The 5150III Head gives you more than just 

a stage-worthy 100-watt amplifier, it’s got the sound that 

made Edward Van Halen a household name! This head’s 

combination of custom-made transformers and special 

biasing help you get that elusive “brown sound” that the 

legendary guitarist uses so well. 

Plus, the 5150III Head’s preamp is designed to add lots 

of harmonic content for extremely rich, expressive tone. 

The included footswitch has color-coded LEDs, allowing 

you to switch between any of the amp’s three channels 

and effects loop with ease onstage. This magnificent amp 

head is available in black or ivory. 

Matching 5150III 412 4 x 12" angled and straight 

cabinets — loaded with Celestion G12EVH speakers to 

accentuate the harmonics of your playing — are also 

available. Per Eddie’s specification, the cabinets are 

constructed from premium birch with a bolt-on back 

panel to keep the cabinet relatively lightweight and very 

resonant. This amp is a must-have for Van Halen fans, 

and discerning tone-chasing guitarists will love it, too!

Tube-powered Modeling Amp 

Modeling amps and devices are old 

hat, having seen a decade or better of 

heavy use by guitarists. It seems only fitting 

that one of the coolest shake-ups to come along in modeling

end with a modern all-tube power amp circuit. This gives 

guitarists a “best-of-both-worlds” scenario, with the flexibility 

of a modeling amp with pure tube tones. The Spider Valve is 

available in 1 x 12" and 2 x 12" combo configurations,

ValveKing Royal 8 

5-watt All-tube Combo 

This little amp gives you amazingly big tone. The 

Peavey ValveKing Royal 8 is a true Class A guitar 

amplifier designed to give players the kind of dynamics 

and classic tones that hearken back to the early 

days of rock and roll. The dual-input combo is great 

for use as a practice or recording amp, and lets you 

dial in tones quickly and easily. Tone is tweaked via 

a single knob, and master volume and gain controls 

can be adjusted for either Class A “breakup” poweramp 

tones or preamp distortion. Guitarists love to 

record with small amps such as this one because, by 

driving the power section, the amp’s true range of tonal characteristics can be heard at 

reasonable volume levels. The ValveKing Royal 8’s single-channel design uses one 12AX7 

preamp tube and one EL84 power tube to produce much more tone and headroom than 

you would expect from such a small package. 

JSX Mini Colossal 

5-watt, Class A All-tube Combo 

The Peavey Mini Colossal all-tube Class A guitar 

amplifier is living proof that you don’t always need 

a big amp to create big tone. In fact, some of the 

greatest recorded guitar tones have been obtained by 

driving low-wattage amps hard. Peavey collaborated 

with the legendary Joe Satriani to create this mini 

tone monster, which uses one 12AX7 and an EL84 

power tube to pump out five watts of power. An XLR 

direct output with mic simulation lets you send the signal from the Mini Colossal directly 

to a recording device, while a Power Sponge attenuator adjusts the power output to the 

8" speaker. Onboard tremolo adds a vintage vibe.

Rage 258 

25-watt Practice Amp 

with 3-band EQ 

The Peavey Rage 258 is one 

of the best practice amps that 

money can buy. It pumps out 

plenty of sound, pushing 25 

watts into an 8", super-duty Blue 

Marvel ® speaker. The Rage 258 

has two switchable channels 

(clean and lead). The Rage 258 

features Peavey’s TransTube ® 

tube emulation circuitry for 

vintage tube sound, a 3-position EQ 

voicing-switch (great for blues harp), a 3-band passive EQ, and a 

low damping factor that gives you tube amp sound at any volume. Added perks include a 

1/4" CD input for jamming along with your favorite bands and even a headphone output 

for rehearsing anywhere, anytime. At just eleven pounds, the Rage258 is a versatile amp 

and an amazing value!

“There’s nothing contradictory about this little giant! Class A tube circuitry 

refined by Satch himself gives my Strat a sweet overdrive as it pumps through 

the 8" speaker. Peavey’s making some spectacular gear nowadays, and this 

amp is a colossus!”

Backstage 

2-channel Mini Combo Amp 

The big surprise about the Backstage combo 

amp is how many features they manage to 

pack into it for the money. Those features 

include EQ controls, a 6.5" speaker, TransTube ® 

overdrive, a tape/CD input for jamming along 

to your favorite songs, and a headphone input. 

The Backstage’s patented TransTube ® preamp 

actually tailors the gain level for any amount of 

drive and emulates 12AX7 tubes very effectively. 

Even mimicking the “push back” response of real tube 

circuitry, the Backstage is an excellent, ultra-affordable practice amp, 

especially for those guitarists accustomed to interacting with a larger tube amp on stage. 

Guitar Player reviewer Barry Cleveland raved about the Backstage in his March 2004 

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.”

JC-120 

Jazz Chorus Combo Amp 

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

“I had an original GA5T, which was called the Skylark Tremolo model. I love this amp 

(the Les Paul Junior) because it gives me that incredible sound I remember from that 

amp. Just turn it on and turn it up. Five watts is a LOT of sound from a real tube amp! 

Think of a sound that is reminiscent of the early Marshalls on 10. The speaker can 

actually handle the output now — the original speaker couldn’t. So we have a reissue 

that exceeds the tone and performance of the original. Get this 

for your vintage amp tones, mic it and go!” —Brian Cravens, Sales Engineer, Ext.1278

Acoustic Guitars 



Building guitars is more than just a process. For Taylor, it’s a way of life. Construction begins with the selection 

of the finest tonewoods the world has to offer. The tops, backs, and sides of every full-sized guitar (except the 

100 and 200 Series) are crafted from solid wood, which is seasoned and shaped to ensure that it meets Taylor’s 

exacting standards. Premium guitar features include ebony bridges and fingerboards. Taylor takes the luthier’s 

craft one step further with their innovative NT neck design, Expression System ® electronics, and UV-cured finishes. 

T5 Electric/Acoustic 

Hybrid 

Taylor’s T5 guitars are gaining a stellar reputation for their 

ability to bridge the gap between acoustic and electric tones, 

and they continue to move the bar. The versatile, ultra-playable 

T5 Standard lets you switch between and blend tones 

from an array of sources: a lipstick tube classic electric bridge 

pickup, a dynamic neck pickup that’s actually mounted in 

the neck, as well as Taylor’s excellent onboard acoustic 

preamp system. You can literally take this guitar from 

pristine acoustic sparkle to down-and-dirty grunge, 

to warm jazz tones with the flick of a switch. The 

shallow body design imparts a natural acoustic 

tone, and it’s a blast to play! You can also get the 

T5 with a beautiful koa top. 

If you want to take the T5’s tone another step 

further (without sacrificing playability), check 

out the amazing T5 Custom 12-String. Whether it’s 

glittering ‘60s jangle or thick, insistent tones, this great 

guitar’s got what you need. 

Colors: Blue Edge Burst, Natural. 


K24 Koa Series 

Taylor’s K24ce acoustic/electric guitar brings the great sound of koa 

back to the Taylor line! This Grand Auditorium-style guitar features 

a single Venetian cutaway, with beautiful and amazing-sounding 

Hawaiian koa wood making up its top, back and sides. This gorgeous 

wood is accentuated by breathtaking curly maple binding and abalone 

appointments. The K24ce’s tropical mahogany neck is topped with a 

quality ebony fingerboard, and the neck inlays are specific to Taylor’s 

Koa Series. As used in the K24ce’s comfortable body style, koa provides 

excellent midrange projection for satisfying 

tones — players in all genres will appreciate 

its rich, throaty sound. 

The K65ce gives you the same great 

features in a 12-string instrument. 

To just look at this gorgeous guitar 

doesn’t do it justice — one strum 

and you’ll be hooked! Both models 

sound great amplified, as well, with 

onboard Expression System ® 

electronics for excellent, 

natural-sounding tones on

Big Baby 

The only time it’s okay to be a big baby is when 

you’re the Taylor Big Baby. The larger, satinfinished 

Big Baby has a spruce top and plays like a grownup, 

with great projection and clarity. The 3/4-size Baby Taylor, with 

either solid spruce or solid mahogany top, gives you surprisingly strong volume 

and makes a great traveling companion or learning 

guitar. Both the Big 

Baby and the Baby come 

equipped with gig bags.

What can we say about Martin guitars that does justice to the supreme quality and desirability of these 

exquisite instruments? For 175 years, C.F. Martin & Company has maintained the traditions of oldworld 

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 2005, and we’re equally proud to offer you the fine 

instruments described below. 

HD-28 

In 1796 a 15 year-old German cabinet maker left his hometown and 

traveled to Vienna to apprentice with Johann Stauffer, a renowned 

guitar maker at the time. Proving himself a gifted apprentice, 

he returned home to open his own shop where he was soon met 

with a campaign of criticsm: could an ordinary cabinet maker 

have the artistry to create a musical instrument? Unwavering in 

his determination to create guitars, C.F. Martin ignored purist 

criticism and moved across the ocean to New York City where he 

set up his own small shop and soon changed guitar history. 

Since then, Martin has continually been a leading, 

innovative acoustic guitar manufacturer, creating 

instruments loved by guitarists everywhere for 

their rich, warm tone, and smooth playability. 

When Martin brought the Dreadnought body style 

to prominence in 1931, a new era of acoustic 

manufacturing began – an era that culminates 

with the HD-28. With herringbone trim and 

scalloped bracing, many players today consider 

the HD-28 to be the best sounding of all 

Martin guitars, ever. Featuring a Sitka 

spruce top, rosewood sides, and ebony 

fingerboard, the classic HD-28 delivers the 

tone rightfully born from six generations 

of guitar making. 

DC-16RE Aura 

Aboard a 14-fret cutaway dreadnought with 

a solid spruce top and East Indian rosewood 

back and sides, the DC-16RE Aura features Fishman 

Aura electronics. Six different acoustic “images” are onboard, 

matching this guitar’s unique tonal characteristics and giving you an 

amazing live playing experience. The DC-16RE Aura sounds amazing plugged in, yet also 

features time-tested Martin acoustic design and craftsmanship.

D-18 

A true American classic, the D-18 was first 

introduced in 1931 and is the archetypal 14- 

fret Martin dreadnought. Most Americans got 

their first look at a D-18 in the hands of another American 

classic when Elvis Presley appeared on television playing a 1942 

model. With a solid spruce top and solid mahogany back and sides, the D-18 is loud 


with an even tone — ideal for stage or studio.

F512 with D-TAR Pickup 

System 

Some 12-string models seem to be just glorified versions of their 

closest 6-string kin, while the keepers, the ones that have real staying 

power, are built from the ground up to be 12-strings — you know 

the difference as soon as you pick them up and strum that first 

rich chord. Count this great Guild among the best of the latter. 

One of the renowned guitar builder’s very first jumbo-shaped 

12-string models, the F512 originally appeared in the late 1960s 

and helped cement the company’s reputation as a quality 

brand. This modern version sports several of the 

features that made the model a popular mainstay, 

and boasts a solid AAA Sitka spruce top, solid 

rosewood back and sides, and an ebony fretboard 

and bridge. An onboard D-TAR Wave-Length pickup 

and preamp system gives the F512 with D-TAR 

amazing amplified tone reproduction, with easy 

access to the volume and tone controls. Now 

you can take the lush tones of a classic 

12-string to the stage, studio, living room 

— anywhere you play it, this 12-string 

sounds astounding! 


GAD-50PCE 

Guild’s legacy of being a leading builder of dreadnought 

acoustic guitars reaches back to 1963, and their classic acoustic 

instruments are favored by players for their exceptional tone, 

responsiveness, outstanding projection, and sustain. The Guild 

dreadnought is famous for its full-bodied, high-volume sound 

that incorporates a special emphasis on string-to-string balance, 

ensuring that the treble, mid, and bass tones project evenly. 

The result is one of the most musically versatile dreadnoughts 

anywhere, and a guitar that has been the preferred choice of 

guitarists for over 40 years. 

The GAD-50PCE acoustic/electric cutaway is a 

full-sounding, all-solid-wood dreadnought that 

gives you that great tone Guild is famous for. The 

dreadnought body shape has been in use for more 

than 70 years, and its popularity continues to 

this day due to its combination of warmth, 

projection, and definition. The GAD-50PCE 

features a cutaway design, solid spruce 

top with scalloped bracing for lively tone, 

solid African padauk back and sides, 

a one-piece mahogany neck, and a 

Fishman Matrix 1 pickup. If you want 

big acoustic tone onstage, play the Guild 

GAD-50PCE dreadnought.

Bass Guitars 



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 expert builders at Fender’s Custom

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 P 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. 

Standard Series 

P Bass 

You see it on stages everywhere, and hear it 

on countless records. Now it’s your turn to 

play it. The Standard Precision Bass 

retains the classic P Bass look and vibe 

while integrating the latest advancements in 

Fender bass technology. New features include 

internally shielded body cavities for quieter 

operation and reduced hum, a “C”-shape 

neck with larger frets for modern feel and 

playability, a gig bag, and new colors. 

Colors: Brown Sunburst, Electron Blue, White. 


“Fender is the originator of the electric bass guitar, 

and remains the standard from which all other basses 

are built and designed. I’ve played the same Standard 

P Bass for 20 years, and haven’t been able to find any 

basses that feel as solid, have the tone, or playability 

that only Fender basses offer. There is nothing better 

than a Fender!”

Bass Guitars 



Ibanez bass guitars are seen around the globe on stage with artists such as Fieldy (Korn), Terry 

Butler (Six Feet Under), session ace Carol Kaye, and many others. These unique instruments provide 

a combination of sonic firepower and ergonomic design characteristics that defy classification, 

which is the main reason such a diverse selection of artists rely on Ibanez basses daily. Many Ibanez basses 

also incorporate higher-end features such as active pickups and EQs and neck-thru construction that aren’t 

commonly found on basses in this price range. 

SR1000EFM 

Prestige 

If you’re looking for a solid, well-built 

bass guitar that will last you a lifetime, 

look no further than the SR Series 

from Ibanez. The SR1000EFM bass 

combines classic good looks with 

premium tonewoods. It’s also surprisingly 

lightweight with a superbly balanced, 

comfort-contoured maple body and 

a gorgeous flame maple top and 

neck-through construction. The 5-piece 

maple and bubinga neck has a rosewood 

fingerboard and is the thinnest and fastest 

in its class. This translates to incredible 

playing comfort! The dual Bartolini 

pickups and 3-band EQ deliver 

the kind of monster tone usually 

associated with custom-built 

instruments that cost a small 

fortune. This bass is also available 

in 5- and 6- string versions.

EDB550 

Talk about comfortable! The EDB550 represents the 

evolution of a bass lineup that’s amazingly balanced and 

offers the kind of little details players appreciate. The 

original Ibanez Ergodyne EDB basses were constructed 

from man-made materials — at the time, the 

technology just didn’t exist to manufacture affordable 

wood versions in such 3-dimensional ergonomical 

shapes. Now, the technology has caught up with the 

concept, and the EDB550 is ready for some serious 

playing action. Its light ash body joins a slim, ultra-fast 

wenge/bubinga neck (with rosewood fretboard), 

providing great tone and sustain while keeping 

the weight down. Mounted in the EDB550’s 

innovative body, two Duncan/Ibanez pickups 

provide plenty of rich, expressive tone. Added 

tone-shaping capability comes courtesy of an 

onboard EQ. Form definitely follows function 

in the EDB550’s All Access neck joint and deep 

cutaways (giving you easy access to the entire 

fretboard), sculpted body, and uncluttered 

controls. This bass is obviously designed 

around the task at hand, rather than 

simply being beautiful for beauty’s sake. 

Also available: the 5-string EDB555.

instrument that won’t bust your bank account, 

look no further than the SRX590. Ibanez’s 

Soundgear Xtreme line of basses is already full 

of great-sounding, powerful instruments, but 

the SRX590 takes it to another level entirely. 

In addition to its beefy PFR-4N neck/PFR4B 

bridge pickups, this axe packs an active 

EQB-IIDX 2-band equalizer circuit to give you 

total command over your tone. The SRX590’s 

construction is solid, reliable, and playerfriendly, 

with a basswood body, 3-piece maple/ 

walnut neck, and rosewood fingerboard. Getting 

around on this bass is incredibly easy, thanks 

to its fast neck shape, generous cutaways, and 

well-balanced design. And when you’re 

generating monster tone onstage, the last 

thing you want to worry about is staying in 

tune, so Ibanez bolted on their super-stable 

Accu-Cast bridge and high-quality tuning 

machines for max stability. Want even 

more heft in your tone? The 5-string 

SRX595 is also available.

The SR500 is one of the best-looking 

bass guitars around, and it’s also 

surprisingly lightweight, with a balanced, 

comfort-contoured mahogany body with 

a sweet brown finish. The SR500 offers 

one of the most playable necks in its class, 

with a thin 5-piece wenge and bubinga 

combination. When you need to deliver 

earth-shaking lows and crystal-clear highs, 

the Bartolini MK1-4 pickups and MK1 

3-band EQ really come through. 

If you’re looking for even more 

tonal flexiblity, check out the

6-string bass. These instruments give 

you all the great features and looks 

you get with the SR500, and their

also two of the best “extrastringed”

discomfort of trying to play an instrument that’s too 

large for them. The shorter neck is also great for

accustomed to.

Zodiac DE Scorpio 

“My technique and playing style have always demanded more from a bass 

guitar to really capture the power and depth of my music. The Zodiac DE 

brings those elements together in one powerhouse instrument.” That’s 

what David Ellefson had to say about his new signature model from 

Peavey. As the purveyor of the low-end in legendary metal band Megadeth, 

David knows a few things about what makes a rockin’ bass, which is why 

he chose to work closely with Peavey in designing his signature bass. 

The Zodiac DE Scorpio bass guitar gives you the sound quality of a 

traditional electric bass with modern features for today’s players. The 

Zodiac DE Scorpio — “Scorpio” being a reference to Dave’s astrological 

zodiac sign — offers a combination of easy playability, 

great sound, and durable, roadworthy construction. 

This bass features a solid alder body with sculpted front 

and back contours, and the maple neck is topped with 

a rosewood fingerboard with a nut-width of 1.5" for 

fast-fretting metal action. Electronically, the Zodiac DE 

is equipped with a Switchcraft jack, two volumes and 

one tone control, and Seymour Duncan Quarter-Pound 

staggered and straight single-coil bass pickups for a 

great range of tones. The pickguard is chrome-plated, 

and chrome hardware accentuates the black finish.

ABOUT 

Ampeg Ampeg debuted the 300-watt SVT (Super Vacuum Tube) bass amplifier with a matching 8 x 10" cabinet in 1969 in response to the need 

for more power as concert venues grew larger and larger. By the end of the year, SVTs were seen backing the Rolling Stones on tour, being used for 

both guitar and bass. Still today, the Ampeg SVT is the amp that the most demanding bassists turn to night after night in clubs and arenas — not to 

mention recording studios — all around the world. 

SVT Bass 

Cabinets 

Speaker Enclosures 

Needless to say, a great bass 

head is only truly as good 

as the cabinet it’s plugged 

into, which is why you’ll 

almost always see an SVT 

Bass Cabinet beneath an 

SVT head. Available in 8 x

SVT-3PRO 

450-watt Professional Tube Bass Head 

The SVT sound is, well, classic. But the times have 

changed and bass rigs have evolved over the years. Now 

rackmounted rigs are commonplace, and the perfect 

bass head may not come with rack ears. The good folks 

at Ampeg are well aware of this fact, and offer up the 

SVT-PRO Series of rackmountable bass heads with tons of 

power and plenty of tone. 

Designed for players that want the familiar sound of an 

SVT, but need the tone-shaping capabilities afforded by 

modern bass amp designs, SVT-3PRO and SVT-4PRO 

are 450-watt and 1,200-watt bass heads, respectively. 

Both models are loaded with 9-band EQs, three 12AX7 

tubes in the preamp stage with the SVT-3PRO adding 

another 12AX7 and a 12AU7 for additional drive. Either 

of these brutes provides the perfect front end to a bass 

rig, blending the best of vintage and modern into a single 

unit with plenty of attitude. When you’re in need of some 

serious bass amplification, Ampeg always fits the bill. 

Check out our full line of SVT cabinets to round out your 

new bass rig!

SVT-CL 

300-watt All-tube Bass Amp 

Since 1969, the Ampeg SVT has been the amp 

head that set the standard for bass amplification. 

The crunchy, punchy tones are unmistakable, 

and bassists worldwide have clung to them since 

their inception. The SVT-CL is arguably one 

of the most popular bass heads ever, with users 

ranging from P-Funk to Kiss and all points in 

between. Three-hundred tube-driven watts offer 

up tones that are pure signature Ampeg. A 3-band 

EQ and 5-position mid-tone control switch lets you sculpt your perfect bass sound. Your custom bass tones can be 

passed through the amp and directly to a mixer or recording deck via the DI output. The SVT performs double-duty as 

a super-high-power guitar amp as well. To get a hint as to 

what the SVT can do for your guitar sound, check out the 

classic rock documentary Gimme Shelter, as the Stones 

used SVTs extensively during that tour. 

For SVT fans that are in need of even more power or need 

to watch the budget, the SVT-450H is a 450-watt solidstate 

head with MOSFET circuitry that faithfully mimics 

SVT-style tube distortion. There’s a good reason why the 

SVT is the standard by which all other amps are judged 

— shouldn’t you plug into one and see why? Don’t forget 

the SVT cabinet (left) to complete that classic SVT sound!

allows the lowest bass notes to be faithfully reproduced while the higher notes are good 

and punchy. SWR brings you a bass amp head with new tone-shaping features, beefier

Enhancer , automatic limiter/compressor, pre/post EQ XLR output, and sidechain effects 

loop. The Bass Intensifier circuit makes a 400-watt amp sound like a 700-watt monster. 

Of course, you’ll need a cabinet for your head, such as the WorkingPro 410. The four 

10" speakers and 400 watts of power handling offer plenty of great bass tone.

features found on the 1215 combo, including pre-shape for the classic Trace sound, valve 

for warmth or overdrive, 12-band classic Trace Elliot EQ, and a dual band compressor. The

VB-2 

225-watt All-tube 

Bass Head 

Since the dawn of 

amplification, tubes have 

been an integral part of tone. 

Even bassists have taken 

advantage of the punch and 

crunch that a only a tubedriven 

amp can provide. The Peavey VB-2 bass amplifier head gives you amazing tonal 

options, with headroom to spare when you need it. Everybody knows that tube watts are 

much louder than solid-state watts, and the 225-watt VB-2 takes full advantage of it. 

The all-tube preamp and power sections — populated by a pair of 12AX7s with a 12AT7 

and six EL34s respectively — let you dial in everything from crystal clear and punchy 

to growling and edgy, 

and its active EQ features 

a multi-frequency mid 

adjustment, allowing you 

to be heard no matter what 

stage you’re on — and 

sound great in the process! 

If you want to harness real 

tube tone for your bass 

rig, the VB-2 is your head! 

Match it up with Peavey’s 

great-sounding, road-ready

MAX Series 

Compact Bass Combos 

A bass amp doesn’t have to be super-high 

powered to be effective, as evidenced by 

the latest crop of bass amps from Peavey. 

MAX Series bass amps provide huge 

bass sound in a space-saving, easy-totransport 

design, and are available in 

four different configurations. 

The MAX 112 cranks 40 watts through 

a 12" speaker; and the MAX 110 pushes 

20 watts through a 10" speaker. The MAX 

158 combo bass amp is an awesome 

practice amp, designed for all levels of 

players. Peavey’s TransTube technology 

gives you two separate voicing selections, 

vintage and modern, each with its own 

distinct tone. With 15 watts of power driving an 8" speaker, the

If your preference is to play 

the smaller to medium-size 

venues, there’s no reason why 

you shouldn’t have the same 

Hartke sound quality and 

feature set as the big arena rigs. You deserve it and so does your audience. The Hartke 

2500 inherits a sonic fortune from the older and wiser HA3500 while receiving a shiny 

new silver face in the process. Its 250 watts will fill the room, and the built-in variable 

compressor keeps your sound defined. Additional tone-shaping features include a 

10-band graphic EQ that gives you a broad enough base (no pun intended) to optimize 

your sound and cope with any unexpected acoustic conditions that gigging from room to 

room can bring. Other pro features include selectable passive or active inputs, tube and 

solid-state preamps, a high-low-frequency contour control, and an XLR direct out. The 

5500 offers similar features with 500 watts of power.

When you look for a bass amp, do you want that 

DEEP bass sound that shakes glasses off the 

counter? Hartke’s 120-watt Kickback 15 will 

surprise you! The Kickback 15 can be positioned 

upright or “kicked back” as a monitor. This bass 

behemoth boasts 120 watts into a signature custom 

Hartke 15" aluminum-cone driver, a shape control 

for more tonal colors, 3-band EQ, and more. This 

amp has more highs for slapping and popping, with 

deep bass, too. Other features include a headphone 

output and balanced XLR direct output.

HyDrive Series 

250-watt Bass Combos 

The HyDrive Series combos from 

Hartke offer another bass innovation from 

the company that gave us the punchy 

tones of the groundbreaking aluminum 

speaker cone. The HyDrive series boasts an 

entirely new speaker design that merges the 

legendary Hartke aluminum cone with a 

traditional paper cone. The result: 

an entirely new speaker that 

blends the amazing midrange 

of the aluminum cone speaker 

with the warmth of a traditional 

paper cone speaker. There are 

three members of the HyDrive 

family, each pushing 250 watts. 

The 210c is loaded with a pair of 

the innovative speakers in the 10" 

size, while the 115c and 112c 

sport single 15- and 12-inch 

speakers, respectively. When 

Hartke came to Sweetwater to show us these modern marvels, they brought none other 

than bassist extraordinaire Stu Hamm, who treated us to an hour-long solo bass concert 

using the HyDrive-equipped cabinet. Needless to say, these speakers deliver in a way that 

only Hartke can, with plenty of punch and warmth. Hear Stu’s thoughts on the HyDrive 

speakers at sweetwater.com/hydrive.

Bass Modeling Combo with 

DSP Effects 

Roland’s excellent COSM amp models 

have served guitarists well in a number 

of great amp configurations, allowing 

players to get big-amp tone from 

convenient practice amps and compact 

combos. Now it’s your turn, bassists! 

Roland brings COSM modeling to the low

only does this little brute pack a 10" coaxial speaker 

with 30 watts of punch, it also has 3-band EQ, 

compression, six COSM bass amp models, and five 

high-quality DSP effects. 

The Cube-100 bass amp bridges the gap between a 

practice rig and an amp suitable for gigs. This 100- 

watt powerhouse with a 12" coaxial 2-way speaker 

features eight COSM amp models, five digital effects, 

a 4-band EQ, compressor, and Shape switch, plus a

It’s all about Line 6 

What was life like before Line 6? 

Imagine being in a stuffy recording studio 

already brimming with guitars, amps, and 

stompboxes, and everything’s ground to a halt 

because the guitarist is looking for that elusive 

“it” sound that sits just right on a track. 

Picture a stage with a monster backline of 

amplifi ers and harried roadies running on- and 

offstage with guitars, looking like ball boys at 

a tennis match as they try to keep up with the 

band’s need for tonal variety. 

In the mid-1990s came a change, however. 

Line 6 created the world’s fi rst digital modeling 

amp, the AxSys 212, providing guitarists with 

dozens of classic amp models, as well as 

modeled stompbox and effects. Just around 

the corner came more Line 6 amp varieties, 

more models, and fi nally, the next step: POD. 

Representing the next step in guitar recording, 

POD freed players not only from being limited 

by their amps, but even from being limited by 

their recording environments. Now guitarists 

could get great tone anywhere, anytime, from 

a few simple knob twists on Line 6’s distinctive 

kidney bean-shaped units. The POD line has 

expanded to include bass models, fl oor and 

rackmount versions for live use, even new 

expanded models that include guitar, bass, and 

even vocal modeling capabilities. 

The newest generation of Line 6’s (now) old 

standby, the modeling amp, has emerged with 

an amazing convergence of up-to-the minute 

digital modeling technology and classic tube 

amp power. 

It’s Line 6’s world. We’re just playing in it. 

Pocket POD 

Portable Amp and Effects Modeler 

Line 6 packed 300-plus presets, 32 great amp models, 16 

cabinet models, and 16 effects into a unit roughly the 

size of a handheld tuner (that’s built-in, too)! You can 

use the Pocket POD as an effective practice tool, or as a 

full-blown multi-FX processor with your amp. It includes 

a USB connection and access to free editing and tone 

library software!

POD X3 

Dual-channel Amp and Effects Modeler for 

Guitar and Vocal 

Leave it to Line 6 to up the ante, this time bringing you a POD 

that’s capable of accepting two separate input sources at once. 

The new flagship of the POD line, POD X3 lets you plug in two 

guitars at the same time, or even a guitar and a vocal! That’s 

right: POD X3’s onboard models include mic preamps, too. 

You can run each input source into an entireley independent 

signal chain to double your fun. If you’re just plugging one 

guitar in, though, the fun is just beginning — POD X3 lets 

you play through two amp and effects chains at the same 

time! Loaded with over 100 amp/cab models, an assortment 

of top-notch mic preamp models, and over 90 modeled 

effects, POD X3 is an incredibly versatile tool for any player. 

POD X3 Live puts all this functionality into a stage-worthy 

box, complete with 12 footswitches, expression pedal, and 

easy-to-reach knobs. Both units come loaded up with 

every model available for POD including bass models, a 

Variax input, USB 2.0 connectivity, and S/PDIF out. 

PODxt 

Amp and Effects Modeler 

Line 6’s PODxt gives you an astounding array of painstakingly 

modeled amps, dozens of classic stompbox 

models, and even microphone models — all 

housed inside PODxt’s distinctively-shaped 

compact chassis. With 128 user/factory 

presets , you’ll have instant access to an 

unbelievable collection of classic guitar 

rigs. Imagine the sonic possibilities of 

having all the coolest amps, cabs, mics, 

stompboxes, and studio reverbs all 

tweaked, wired-up, and ready to go. and 

PODxt has a USB port for direct digital 

computer recording. And its flash-based 

memory means easy upgrades to keep your

POD 2 

Guitar Modeling and Effects Processor 

When POD first arrived on the scene, it revolutionized guitar 

amp modeling. Now, POD is everywhere — the biggest tours, the 

biggest records, the rigs of some of the best guitarists around. The 

really cool thing is how guitarists of all styles love POD 2. It’s the 

huge variety of amp modeling options that pulls them in, but it’s 

the remarkable detail and realism of the sound that keeps them. In 

short, POD 2 sounds so much like the real thing, you won’t believe 

your ears. You get 32 customizable models of some of the world’s 

most legendary amps including 1952 Fender Deluxe, 1995 Mesa 

Boogie Dual Rectifier Head, 1964 Fender Deluxe, 1990 Marshall 

JCM-800, 1989 Soldano SLO Super Lead Overdrive, and tons 

more. POD 2 not only “models” the amp or cabinet, but 

also the way a real cabinet sounds when recorded with a 

microphone. There are also 16 pro quality digital effects 

such as Reverb, Compressor, Flange, and many more. All 

settings can be instantly tweaked and saved for further 

recall from any of the onboard 36 presets. Also available: 

The Floor POD (with 64 presets) and road-ready Floor 

POD Plus, which includes 124 presets.

DL4 

Modeler 

Delay and Echo 

Effects Modeler 

Delay and echo effects 

have been popular since 

the beginning of amplified 

guitars as a means 

to make guitars sound bigger than life. Many of the vintage units — while creating 

really cool sounds — were rather fragile and often malfunctined or brokedown. Line 6 

changes all that with this nifty box that’s chock full of vintage delay and echo effects. 

Rather than offer a smattering of generic echos and delays, the Line 6 DL4 Modeler 

offers you the closest thing you can get to having 15 classic delay and echo units at your 

disposal. Plus, it offers a level of control and programmability that you won’t find on any 

of the old boxes. Want to bring an EP-1 Tube Echoplex or a Space Echo to the gig? All 

that and more is in the DL4! You also get 14 seconds of loop memory and true bypass for 

tonal purity.

Countless guitarists have set out seeking a vintage TS808 Tube

the same JRC4558 chip that made the vintage units sound so good. 

The TS9DX Turbo Tube Screamer adds even more volume and

of sustaining, crunching bliss that modern rockers love. The AD9 Analog Delay pedal

Phase 90 

A modern classic! There’s no easier way to get swirling, 

shimmering phase effects than with the MXR Phase 90. 

This compact pedal’s single speed control lets you go from a 

slow, subtle wave effect to all-out watery warble — and, as 

any guitar guru worth his or her salt will tell you, the mark 

of a truly great effects pedal is how cool it sounds when you 

crank it all the way open. This one absolutely fits the bill! 

The Phase 90 has found favor with such luminaries as Eddie 

Van Halen, Nancy Wilson, and Dave Grohl, to name just a 

few. And its amazingly rich effect doesn’t just make guitars 

sound great; the Phase 90 works equally well with keyboards, 

bass, and vocals. It’s housed in a druable metal enclosure 

and features a bright 

indicator light, and a 

premium-quality switch. 

Tremolo 

If you love the buttery, vintage tremolo effect 

your favorite guitarists achieve onstage and 

in the studio, rest assured that many of them 

are getting it from this incredible trem pedal. 

The Tremolo pedal actually uses the very 

same lamp/photocell assembly that’s found 

in some of the most popular vintage guitar 

amplifiers to provide classic trem tone and 

vibe. In addition, the Tremolo’s slope control 

lets you veer from smooth, vintage-style vibe 

all the way to hard on/off strobe-like effects. 

You can use this versatile pedal’s speed and intesity 

controls to go from a subtle, slow throb to a staccato stutter. A 

Sparkle Drive 

Take the sound and vibe of a vintage 808 distortion pedal, 

add an adjustable “clean” control, pack it into a sturdy, 

stage-worthy metal housing, and you’ve got a versatile 

winner that will never leave your pedalboard. Voodoo Lab’s 

Sparkle Drive pedal lets you pour on the drive for great 

overdrive and distortion tones, while adding a clean twist: 

a separate clean control knob adds a boosted direct (clean) 

signal to the distorted sound, allowing you to restore attack 

and note definition. Depending on the adjustment, you can 

go from an aggressive bark with enhanced bite to a totally 

clean, transparent gain boost — perfect for driving the 

front end of a tube amp for even more cool tone options! The 

hand-built Sparkle Drive also features true bypass switching.

controls for Output, Tone, and Distortion, allowing you 

to go from natural grit and overdrive to intense, searing 

distortion. It’s great for kicking your solos up a notch, 

overdriving your amp’s input, or providing realistic 

amp tones on its own. The Distortion III is a proven 

distortion stompbox and is as versatile as they come.

There are two ways to get the sound Eric Clapton had 

on his classic tracks with psychedelic-blues powerhouse 

Cream, Derek and the Dominos, and later as a solo act. 

One way is to buy the amps, guitars, effects, and mics

pedal, which emulates the tones of seven classic Clapton 

songs: “Badge,” “Crossroads,” “Sunshine of Your Love,” 

“Layla” (both the 1970 original and the unplugged 

version), “Lay Down Sally,” and “Reptile.” With a

Great pedals can be the difference between tones that “wow” and a sound that falls flat. 

Whether it’s phase shifting, distortion, or delay, the right effect can really tie your song 

together. The DigiDelay ® pedal, just one of DigiTech’s X-Series, gives you up to four 

seconds of delay and lets you select various delay types, such as stereo ping-pong and 

tape delay, plus tap tempo so you can set the delay time exactly to the beat. The Hot 

Rod TM pedal offers up a great dirty “rock” tonal palette. At the top end of the distorto-meter 

comes the Metal Master TM . Both have spectral-contouring EQ and a second 

output with cabinet emulation so you can go direct to your board or recorder. The Multi 

Chorus ® is a true multi-voice pedal, with up to 16 voices of lush chorus flowing from 

your speakers. It even has randomization that thickens the chorusing 

further as you add more voices, and switchable cabinet emulation.

ToneLab LE 

Guitar Effects Pedal 

with Modeling and 

Tube 

Vox’s approach to 

modeling classic 

amps and cabs is to 

use a tube-driven 

circuit that actually 

reconfigures itself so its characteristics are 

the same as the amps it’s modeling (Class A, Class AB, negative feedback 

circuit, etc.). This reconfiguration process is based around a 12AX7 dual triode tube, a virtual output 

transformer, and a dummy speaker circuit that simulates the reactive load of a real speaker. The latest generation 

in the ToneLab line is the ToneLab LE. 

Offering 16 sonically outstanding models including Vox’s own AC30, plus a range from classics to built-to-order 

handmade amps, the ToneLab LE is sure to please even the most discriminating guitarists. Eleven cabinet models 

replicate the cabinet shape and the number and type of speakers. Vox doesn’t ignore the legions of effects fans 

either; the ToneLab LE is loaded with new distortion models, 16 pedal types, 11 each of modulation effects, delays, 

and reverbs. To connect to a computer for recording, the ToneLab LE has a S/PDIF output plus MIDI I/O. A single 

expression pedal puts control over the effects at your feet. Amp, cabinet, and effects settings can be saved into 120 

program locations, and for each of these, two channels can be saved. For the meat and potatoes of rock, Vox is 

your box. 

V847A Wah 

Vintage Reissue Wah 

Pedal 

Introduced in 1967, the Vox 

wah-wah made a name 

for itself in the rock n’ 

roll history books. The 

sound of a Vox wah 

is unmistakable, 

and this reissue is 

the closest a Vox wah 

has been to the original 

design since the ‘60s. The 

V847A is totally authentic, built to 

the exact specifications of the original with some minor 

design enhancements to further improve the sound 

quality. From the classic chrome foot controller to its 

redesigned inductor for the closest tone to the original as 

humanly possible, this is the classic wah. Vox also added 

an input buffer to prevent loading of the guitar signal.

JX•2 Switchbone 

Amp Selector/Combiner 

Tonebone Series 

Vintage Overdrive Distortion Pedals 

The newest members of the Tonebone Series 

continue Radial’s tradition of creating actual tubedriven 

pedals that preserve the integrity of your 

tone. The Tonebone Classic 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 everything in 

between. With the Tonebone TriMode, Radial 

offers the best of five generations of classic 

American tube amps with the simple push of a button. 

The Tonebone Plexitube faithfully replicates the sound and feel of a classic 

Marshall Plexi, with clean, rhythm, and lead tones all contained in a single box. 

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. 

Radial loaded the Tonebone pedals with extremely high-quality components 

to make sure that every aspect of your guitar’s tone makes it to your speaker. 

All four models employ true bypass, and the Plexitube and TriMode both have 

effects loops on their lead channels. Radial has found a place in the rigs of 

some of the most discerning ears in music. Doesn’t your guitar deserve the 

best tone imaginable?

The Radial JX•2 Switchbone is an AB-Y box that’s designed to let an electric 

guitar 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 doesn’t use chips or op amps in 

the primary audio circuit — the main concern is sound quality, and the JX-2 

truly delivers!

in on the presence without tinny treble, and balance 

the output for the perfect extra boost. The original RAT 

won favor with countless guitarists and the RAT 2 is

Damage Control’s

stompbox/DI, powered

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. This is truly an innovative step in the 

evolution of direct recording guitar. 



Few effect pedals have had the sonic impact of 

the wah-wah pedal, with its ability to bend a 

tone from one extreme to the other by simply 

rocking the pedal back and forth. The sound 

mimicked crying, hence the name. The 

Crybaby wah-wah pedal was made famous 

by the burning licks of such guitar greats as 

Jimi Hendrix and Eric Clapton in the ‘60s, and has now 

found a home beneath the feet of recent guitar legends such as Slash and Joe 

Satriani. Also available: the Crybaby 535Q Multi-Wah, with an adjustable frequency 

sweep and adjustable, 

footswitchable boost.

Time Line 

The Time Line is a 

digital delay pedal 

that can flange and 

chorus. Like the Glass 

Nexus, the Time Line’s 

digital signal path is a 

pristine 96kHz, with tubes to warm 

up or artistically modify the sound. 

Both the Time Line and Glass Nexus are equipped with 

presets for instant gratification and MIDI for fast access

Jimi Hendrix Fuzz Face 

Vintage Reproduction Fuzz Pedal 

Jimi Hendrix was able to mold his guitar tones 

into incredible sonic textures and shapes, 

using only a few effects in addition to 

his cranked-up amp and guitar. In the 

process, he created an iconic sound that 

still makes jaws drop nearly 40 years 

later. Now you can use some of his favorite 

tools, painstakingly brought back to life 

by Dunlop. The Jimi Hendrix Fuzz Face 

is a faithful recreation of the fuzz pedal the 

guitar legend used to launch an incredible array 

of revolutionary sounds, styles, and songs. Dunlop 

went through several vintage Dallas Arbiter Fuzz 

Face units, picking a select few and closely examining 

them for accurate reproduction. As a result, this 

Jimmy Hendrix Fuzz Face stays true to the best of 

the originals, including a handwired circuit board, 

original-style circular housing and knobs with a 

turquoise hammertone finish. 

The cool white Jimi Hendrix Octavio octave divider gives 

you a stellar recreation — right down to every knob, 

jack, switch, and circuit. Considered the “holy grail” 

of octave fuzz pedals, this“octave up” pedal was used 

by Hendrix to achieve incredible tonal textures. The 

Crybaby Jimi Hendrix Signature Wah offers 

the same throaty, expressive tone of the original. 

It also shares the original’s flashy chrome top and 

black crinkle body finish. 

Brew up some voodoo tone 

with these classic pedals! 

Womanizer 

Put some tube amp feel 

in your guitar tone! 

The Womanizer 

utilizes two 12AX7 tubes 

to provide distortion with 

dual-cascading gain stages 

and tube output, emulating the 

feel and sound of a tube combo. 

The analog opto-compression adds thickness to clean 

guitar tones and warmth and sustain to lead riffs. For 

recording, the Womanizer accurately emulates classic 

rock-style guitar tones — specifically tube combos found 

on countless rock recordings from the ‘70s. 

Glass Nexus 

Put a rack full of amazing 

studio-quality effects 

right at your feet! The 

Glass Nexus is a 

tube-driven multieffects

signal purity, making it an ideal companion for toneconscious 

guitarists.

Have you ever wanted to see exactly how low you could go with your bass? Well, now you can! The BOSS OC-3 Super 

Octave gives bassists high-quality octave effects with a single stomp. The versatile OC-3 has separate inputs for both 

guitar and bass. The OC-3 is the world’s first compact pedal with true Polyphonic Octave effects that can be adjusted to

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. If you want to “dirty up” your 

bass tones without sacrificing body, thump, or perceived volume, try the ODB-3 Bass Overdrive. You can actually 

mix your original signal with the overdrive effect for a perfect blend of grit and punch. A 2-band EQ gives you easy 

tone-shaping, too. The LMB-3 Bass Limiter/Enhancer pedal helps reign in signal spikes while giving you a 

controllable tone that sits great in any mix, live or in the studio. Want thicker tone, or are you looking for a unique bass

VXL Bass Attack 

Bass Preamp/DI 

The Hartke VXL Bass Attack 

pedal is a tone-shaping 

preamp that doubles as a DI, 

featuring the famous Hartke 

Shape Circuitry. The 2-button 

stompbox has 3-band EQ plus 

a harmonics control that 

emulates the warmth and drive 

of a tube amp. For a killer front 

end, send a signal to your effects processor from the line 

out, then back through the VXL Bass Attack. One user 

wrote to say, “I can dial in the right sound very quickly 

and get a clean, hot signal through the XLR output. 

Another nice touch is the parallel 1/4" output that’s 

perfect to keep your tuner hooked up without actually 

going through it. This thing is built like a tank, too. It’s 

solid and the knobs are smooth.”

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!

Guitar Polish 

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

Finger-Ease 

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.

A capo’s a capo, right? Not anymore! The G7th 

Performance capo sports a unique spring-and-clutch 

design that secures the capo 

“The G7th Capo is quite literally one of the best I have ever 

used. The design is quite different in that it uses a clutch 

system with a spring rather than just a spring. The result is no 

re-tuning due to less pressure on the strings — no matter the 

size of the fret! The design is amazing and 

innovative to say the least! “ 

Acoustic Feedback 

Buster 

Acoustic guitar bodies 

are built to move air 

and produce sound. But 

onstage and plugged in, 

they can generate nasty 

feedback. The Acoustic 

Feedback Buster lets you 

stop pesky feedback at its source, 

effectively plugging the soundhole. It installs in seconds, 

and doesn’t mar your guitar’s finish. It’s a real bargain!

fear of getting out of range and experiencing a dropout. 

Like the XDS95, the XDR95 operates at 900MHz, which 

means that it will be immune to becoming obsolete 

or interfered with in 2009 when the use of the current 

wireless frequency bands change hands. It’s pretty clear 

that as the world evolves, everything will be going digital. 

X2 is a step ahead of the curve, bringing digital wireless 

to the masses today! 

connect the 1/4" output plug directly to your amp, make 

sure your transmitter and the XDR-1 receiver are set to the 

same channel, and you’re ready to go! High-quality A/D 

resolution gives you the best possible signal quality, and the 

onboard LED display shows power, link, channel, battery, 

ONLY $15/mo.
