Unboxings and reviews of guitar part or components to upgrade or modify you guitar. Guitar parts or components are unboxed, tested and reviewed here. This library of reviews has increased over time and continues to increase. Please return to see the new reviews and unboxings as more are published. hopefully they will help you when making the right choices when buying guitar and guitar related gear. So far this section has reviews and tests of, guitar pedals, microphones and luthier tools and guitar modifications. I started making these reviews because people asked me to do so in response to so many reviewers who just sit there talking about themselves and playing the guitar rather than actually reviewing the item and showing it in detail and explaining the pros and cons of the items being reviewed.

If you have guitar parts or componenets you want get reviewed, contact me with your details or the details of the item, but please be aware I don't take any payment and I will only give an honest review of the item.
