From the Gibson Lifestyle Page: “Many guitarists think about strings more in relation to feel than to sound, and put little consideration into elements of their strings’ make-up other than seeking a thickness-or gauge-that feels good to their fingertips and is easy to bend and fret, as required to taste. Some sacrifice a little finger strain for a heavier gauge that offers a punchier tone, or simply in an effort to achieve a firmer, less “rubbery” action, but still don’t give much thought to the tonal properties of the strings themselves. It’s important to know, however, that the steel that strings are made from, and the quality of their overall manufacture, are both going to have a major effect on how they vibrate, and therefore how they sound”.

Testimonials:
David Nicholas - The 20watt amp is sounding fantastic! Delivered the goods at the gig and I'm finding cool tones all over the place with it. Love the cab w Emenince Tonkerlites too- perfect for my sounds! Makes the 12 string sound like a grand piano!
Peter Lacis - I had an audition for something recently that was all about Led Zeppelin I -- my custom Pennalizer BLEW THE MINDS of the guys I was playing with. They couldn't believe the sounds coming out of that amp. That album was never in my mind when I came up with the idea....so that's yet another testament to the amazing work that you do.
Scott Goldberg - I am very satisfied with the set-up, and the fast turn around. With the "lower" action it feels easier to play. I will definitely spread the word.
