    By Gary | January 14, 2010

    Ok campers, I get quite a few questions in emails asking me about how to repair channel switching problems on newer Fender and Peaveys and such.  Most of the time the actual repair is simple to an experienced bench tech but to someone sitting at home wondering if they should fix it themselves to save [...]

    Yamaha P85 Review – Digital Piano – VS Casio PX330

    By Gary | December 3, 2009

    I just had to post a review on my Yamaha P-85 digital piano. Why, because I researched way too much before I bought and compared it against the different Casio’s in a similar price range. Here was the deal. The casio’s I looked at Privia, PX 110, PX 120, and PX 330. The hard decision [...]

    Kendrick Humor

    By Gary | November 15, 2008

    Here’s a funny video by Kendrick. What he did was push the input jack apart so the amp would hum. And then hammed it up. I’ve seen techs do this with rookies and even some more harder to detect stunts like tie a 1 ohm carbon comp resistor across the outputs of a power amp. [...]
