THE GEAR

We believe that high-quality and unique pieces of gear inspire musical creativity and innovation.  We love to explore and discover fresh tones and sounds to bring energy and distinction to your recording.  It's kind of our thing.  It's a regular occurrence for our clients to concoct new sounds in our studio that they not only use on their album, but later incorporate into their live show.  We do our best to keep this list updated, but at the rate our collection grows there might be something missing.
