Electric Guitars

It’s all about the guitar (and some bass)

Ian Cohen -
Here's my Ernie Ball Music Man Stingray bass. It's not a bass with a lot of frills, or feats of craftsmanship, but it's a solid bass...

STUFF

API Box 2 to MTRX – ‘nough said

Ian Cohen -
This is an API Box 2 analog console. All instruments and mics cross through here on the way to the AVID MTRX. Yikes!

I got used to being free from my amp

Here’s my man cave

Ampex keeps on ticking – A reel clock!

ABOUT THIS WEBSITE

You're seeing the result of a lifelong obsession (addiction?) with guitars and gear. From an invention, to acoustic guitars, to guitars I've built, to some of the gear that's accumulated, there's a lot of it here...Music is the biggest part of my life outside my family. If you've read this far, you probably feel the same way I do about guitar and music.... I hope you enjoy the inventory of sorts!
