The iZotope Spire Studio!

Spire interfaceI first saw this fire interface this year in a marketing video that they put out. it looks really intriguing, and if I were new to recording, and didn’t already have ton of studio equipment, this would be just the ticket to get me up and running one fell swoop.

 

The fact that it’s wireless and works with your Mac or Android phone uber-cool.

 

It’s simple. it’s versatile. It goes where you go, and gives you every tool and effect you need to record, edit, mix and propagate your music to the world.

 

All in a shell a little larger than a softball. Pretty cool.

 

It was $349 up ’til today, so $50 off is nothing to sneeze at.

Ibanez Exotic Wood Series EW2012ASENTEW guitar

You may remember I did a review on the Ibanez exotic wood acoustic and how I’ve been playing it non-stop since I bought it this year.

 

You may also remember the picture of Joe Walsh I put up showing him playing one of these EW guitars on the current Eagles tour.

 

This is the 12-string model. If you want to play “Hotel California” and sound as good as the Eagles, well, first… PRACTICE!!! Then, buy this guitar. You’ll sound just like the band does, and do it in style.

 

The shape of the upper cutaway bout is incredible. Because of it I’m playing above the 12th fret frequently on this acoustic, which really is expanding my finger-picking technique and stylistic choices.

 

Overall, if you want to look good, sound good and have tone shaping control right from your axe that’s clean and versatile, have no fear – the EW is here!

Epiphone Limited Edition Les Paul Studio Deluxe

Les Paul guitarI have to be honest there were some other guitars that looked a little more cool than this one in the sale lists, of them got as high of review accolades as this electric.

 

There’s just so many people who have bought this guitar hey it’s the bomb, I can’t ignore it.

 

Plus, even though I love a beautifully stylized guitar, it’s always been, to me, more about the sound-sculpting capabilities of an instrument then how it looks.

 

Not that this guitar looks bad, mind you – it just has a more simple facade than some other choices we might make.

 

The Classic Plus Alnico humbuckers, tune-o-matic Bridge and solid mahogany body are going to quickly and easily give you the Les Paul sound and exceptional sustain you’re wanting to play or record with.

 

With the 3-position toggle you’ll have at least six different tonal options this instrument to choose from.

 

Not bad for an electric guitar with an excellent pedigree that ships to you for under $400, right?! Gotta love that Black Friday mojo!! And since they dropped it another $20 today only… what more do ya need? A visit from Les Paul’s family with a signed coupon???!! lol

Fender Special Edition Deluxe Ash TelecasterTelecaster

If this guitar looks familiar, it might be because I did an in-depth review of one very similar to it just last month in THIS ARTICLE.

 

The big difference though was that, even though that guitar looked almost identical to this one, it was almost $2,000 more expensive!

 

This guitar, at this price, is a great deal. If I didn’t already have a great-sounding tele, I’d snag this beast in a heartbeat.

 

Want some Nashville twang? Need some snap and crispness in your tone for a certain music genre? This’ll be your bullwhip!

 

Confirm that this is the spank you’re looking for by watching the video at this link:

BLUE Bluebird SL Large-Diaphragm Mic

Bluebird micI have a friend that I record with frequently who owns the entire line of blue microphones. Yep, he bought the whole kit and caboodle.

 

So since I’ve recorded through his blue microphones so many times, I can tell you they are a high-quality series that will pretty much flat or any Sound Source you put in front of them.

 

They tend to have a clear tone that doesn’t color your sound source very much at all.

 

With its onboard high pass filter and -20 dB pad for higher decibel signals, this mic will provide you with the versatility and nuance the translates into excellent recordings.

 

Once you’ve gone large-diaphragm in a mic, especially with a hand-built capsule like this one, you never go back. Up until today it’s been $299, so, again, $50 further off the price is great!

 

Pick yours up while the sparkle is reduced:

Zildjian A Series Thin Crash Cymbal 17 in.Zildjaan cymbal

Zildjian cymbals have a long, rich, renowned history, and I have at least seven different models around my own recording kits as I type. I wouldn’t do without ’em.

 

This is an excellent value on a great cymbal. Follow my link and watch the video to see what I mean. It just sounds… right; like what a good symbol is supposed to sound like.

 

I can’t really put it any simpler than that. Since they dropped the price for Black Friday today, it’s hard to come up with a reason NOT to buy this cymbal.

 

Per the m.o. for today, get this super stinger before they’re out of stock and the deal is gone, baaaabe!

Breedlove Pursuit CE Acoustic-Electric Guitar

Breedlove acousticOkay straight up… this is one beautiful guitar. I have never owned a Breedlove guitar yet, but this year I ran across them for the first time and started researching them.

 

I’ve been supremely impressed by the sounds, looks and craftsmanship that Breedlove consistently produces.

 

If not for the fact that I have four or five other pieces of studio gear that I have to buy today, I’d be buying this guitar. The Myrtlewood and finish on this is beautiful.

 

I honestly have not seen a Breedlove guitar “on sale” before today, this is a cool moment to pick up a sweet axe with an excellent pedigree at a rarely discounted price.

 

If you get this puppy, leave us a comment and share the love. In fact, share a recording – I can’t wait to hear it!!

Mitchell FB700 Fusion Series Bass GuitarMitchell bass guitar

This bass immediately caught my eye since it looks so cool. I then checked out some videos that let me hear its tone, and the opinions of some players concerning it features and sound.

 

Bottom line? I’m eagerly intrigued!

 

Besides the sweet-looking top plate, you rarely see so many tone-sculpting potentiometers and an active preamp & EQ on a bass with this low of a price.

 

I also like the fact that the pickups have an outstanding reputation for reducing noise and unwanted microphonics.

 

Sounds like just the type of bass I want to play in the studio and live!

 

This same bass is still listed at a much higher price of $699 on Guitar Center’s site right now. Get this smokin’ deal from Musician’s Friend and take a ride on the rumble before it’s gone, gone, gone…:
