Darkglass deals in the dirty arts and the new collaboration with Taylor Swift bassist Amos Heller is no exception with the Kaamos that blends a powerful distortion with octave-down tones. Real-time routing controls let you shape your signal path with ease—stack effects in series for rich saturation or run them in parallel for intricate, layered textures. A movable effects loop, configurable in three distinct positions, opens up new possibilities, while a dedicated sub-octave output unlocks creative multi-amp setups. Every detail is precision-engineered to put you in complete control of your sound.

Collings brandished a fresh offset solidbody electric. The 71 M is built with an ash body, a slab-sawn hard maple neck, rosewood fretboard (with a 10" radius), Mastery Offset bridge & vibrato, and a set of Lollar JM-Style pickups — P-90 (bridge) and Blademaster (neck). A 25 1/2" scale length, Kluson Supreme tuners, Davies Radio knobs with push-pull series/parallel on the tone, Jupiter Vintage Yellow capacitors, and narrow-tall frets round out the experience.

Two-Rock are tone titans and they dished us a double uppercut this year. We got to hear the Silver Sterling Signature (now in 1x12 combo format) that is a rides at either 100 or 50 watts thanks to 4-6L6 power tubes. It has foot-switchable FET and tone stack bypass, 7-position gigh and low filter rotary controls, tube-driven, analog spring reverb with send and return controls & passive effects loop. From lush, crystalline cleans to stainky blues, this amp will give you the classic sounds and more — plus look how classy it looks!
