Gear Reviews
Independent reviews of vintage and modern amplifiers, stompboxes, multi-effects, and electric guitars. We drive the gear hard, explore sonic possibilities and limits, and ignore corporate spec sheets.

RYRA The Klone: A Replica of the Legendary Centaur
A part-for-part, through-hole replica of the original Klon Centaur. We test whether the big, 3D, open sound that made the original a legend survives the reissue.

Wren and Cuff Box of War: Reviving the Civil War Muff
We put the reissued Civil War muff through its paces. Closely related to the Tall Font Big Muffs of the era, this heavy-duty reissue trades the originals' notorious flakiness for a folded steel enclosure built to survive the road.

Two-Rock Studio Signature: A 35-Watt Clean Pedal Platform
The latest iteration of Two-Rock's Studio Pro 35 lineage: a single-channel, 6L6-powered head and combo built around a 3-position gain structure switch and true tube-driven spring reverb.
