Battle of the Guitar Multi-Effects Titans

When it comes to guitar effects pedals, nothing beats digital multi-effects processors with regards to jam-packed features and versatility. But in terms of sound quality, analog guitar effects pedals are still the kings, but not for long.

Today's fast-paced technology enabled digital guitar multi-effects processors to simulate closely how analog pedals sound plus more! They have amp and cabinet simulation, drum machine, digital recorder, and built-in tubes delivered for a price that's less than all the effects it simulates of course.

The Boss GT-8, DigiTech GNX4, Korg ToneWorks AX3000G, Line 6 POD X3 Live, VOX ToneLab LE, and Zoom G9.2tt are todays top-of-the-line flagship products in the world of guitar multi-effects processors. Each has its own unique features and effect simluations aside from the popular effects simulations like the Boss DS-1 Distortion, Boss MT-2 MetalZone, Ibanez TS9/TS808 Tube Screamer,and Crybaby Wah that most of them have in common.

If you're planning to buy a multi-effects processor let me give you a preview of each processor before you go to a music store to try them out.

Jaguar, Jagstang, Jagmaster

These in my opinion are 3 of the sexiest and most visually appealing Fender guitars ever made. Starting off with Fender Jaguar, this guitar was popular in the 60's for being a "surf guitar" used by surf rock bands like "The Beach Boys" back then. It gained popularity again in the 90's among alternative rock bands specially when Kurt Cobain used it.









Next is the Fender Jagstang, this guitar was made specially for Kurt Cobain, when he suggested his idea to Fender to make a hybrid of Fender Jaguar and Fender Mustang. He used this guitar for the "In Utero" tour in 1994.









Last is the Fender Jagmaster, this guitar is actually made by Squier which is Fender's budget line of guitars. It is a hybrid of Fender Jaguar and Fender Jazzmaster.









These sexy guitars are nothing if you don't have sexy licks and riffs in your arsenal, now plug that guitar then create some :)

Pearl Joey Jordison Snare Drums

This has got to be one of the best selling snare drums in the market today. The Joey Jordison Signature Snare Drum by Pearl was designed by none other than Joey Jordison of Slipknot together with the Pearl design engineers.

What makes this 13" x 6.5" power piccolo sell to many is the versatility of the sound it produces that is not limited to metal music only but to a variety of other genres as well. I've seen Rn'B and alternative rock drummers use this snare on their gigs and one thing they'll tell you is that this snare sounds so crisp thus it's monicker "power piccolo".

Pearl Joey Jordison Snare Drums

Hear the Joey Jordison Snare Drum in action:


This snare is priced around $230. So if you have the money, buy it here. And if you're not satisfied with the snare only, You can buy the whole limited edition Pearl Joey Jordison Drum Set if you can still find one.

Avoid Home Insurance Claims Hassles

A photographic record of your possessions is the best means of establishing proof of loss and speeding up and insurance claim in case of fire, flood or other damage to your home. Use a digicam or SLR and photograph everything you own. Even ordinary household objects can be costly to replace. Include all appliances including water heater and pumps. Arrange small appliances together when photographing the kitchen. Write the model and serial numbers on the back of the photos. Photograph silver and other quality objects against black velvet to enhance their appearance of value. Don't forget the garage where you likely have such items as expensive bicycles and costly power tools. File the photos along with the receipts to prove the original value of the items by room and make sure you store the photos and records in a private security box away from the home, they do you no good if they're destroyed in the same fire that burns up the insured item.

Ways to save electricity

Here are some tips on how to keep your electricity bills low and under control:

First, take a look at your refrigerator. It represents about 30% of your electric bill. Open the door and place a sheet of paper against the rubber seal then close the door. If the paper sheet comes out without any resistance from the rubber seal, replace the seal because it's not tightly closed anymore. Unplug the fridge and vacuum coils behind or below to improve efficiency.

Next, keep blankets in the TV or reading room and use them. Then you can lower the thermostat and still stay warn. And for additional savings, remember to purchase you heating oil in the summer when it's cheaper.

Buy compact florescent bulbs that last up to 10 times longer then regular light bulbs while using 1/4 the electricity.
