  2. Electric…..

    February 3, 2011 by dband

    So we often get asked about what equipment we guitarists use, so I thought I would write a little post about it here so everyone can know! Also, we know that gear can get overwhelming so I included a little section in the bottom called “Where to Start?” with a few suggestions if you don’t know where to go, and want to sound good without spending a fortune.

    Hope it helps!
