Totally Classic Rock

I went to Best Buy the other day, to get some sweet speakers for my computer at work, and as i was paroozing down the aisle i came across a demo video game called Guitar Hero. Cautiously i picked up the control (which was a guitar) and started my classic rock journey.
4 hours later, I bought some black spandex, a headband, got some tattoos and i was a rockstar – for real this time. I cannot express how cool this game is, by the end of it you’ll have groupies of your own, i promise. Go get it today.
Self-Tuning Guitars

What would you give for a self-tuning guitar? Yes, it is about to become a reality as Gibson’s Powertune system will be hitting the market soon.
This is a new line of instruments that include "an additional set of pickups mounted underneath the strings that are used specifically for the tuning process."
It all comes at a price, but if you are seriously tone-deaf, then the extra $899 might be a blessing and money well spent.
Crate’s New Amps

Two new offerings from Crate for the guitar lovers:
The 5 watt USB-equipped Profiler 5 weighs in at only 6 pounds and can be powered from an AC power supply or from six AA batteries, making it portable. It also sports a mini-jack for your iPod to play along with your songs and all for a street price of $159.99.
The new V-Series tube amps feature a universal power supply making it possible for you to play just about anywhere on this planet without those transformers to lug around. Prices start at $299.99 for the 5-watt V5 combo priced and climbs to $789.99 for the 33-watt, dual-channel V33-212.
