Dig into the details of a pile of new gear from Martin, Revv, Walrus, Dunable, Jam, and more!
Martin D-18 StreetLegend

The Nazareth-based, classic American acoustic guitar maker comes on strong with a series of soprano ukuleles, a 000 with a satin finish, new finishes for the D-18, plus the first short-scale Martin bass (priced at $749 street). But check out the new D-18 StreetLegend—an aged-top 6-string based on a guitar in Martin’s museum that was once played by Kurt Cobain, tagged at $2,499 street.

Jam Harmonius Monk

JAM and That Pedal Show’s Mick Taylor and Dan Steinhardt have developed a new iteration of their wildly versatile harmonic tremolo, the Harmonious Monk. Mick was on hand to walk us the bevy of new features including tap tempo, three different LFO patterns, a legacy mode, and much more. They are available now for $279.

Eventide H90

One of the most buzzed about pedals is Eventide’s H90, which could be seen as a pair of H9s, but that would be selling it short. It packs a mind-boggling amount of features, sounds, and options while keeping a fairly intuitive interface. In our demo we caught some of the new polyphonic algorithms which were really amazing.
Dunable DE Series Asteriod

The Asteroid is one of Dunable’s latest additions to their import line. The V-style vibes of the Asteroid include a Floyd Rose trem, hotter blade-based humbuckers, and more. Plan is to have them available soon for around $1200.
Walrus Audio Fundamental Series

Walrus’ Colt Westbook wanted to give players that are just starting out in their guitar journey affordable options that not only can handle the wear and tear but sound good. The Fundamental Series is a group of nine stomps that have ultra-hip sliders and a toggle that lets you pick between three different modes. I’d say the standouts were the delay, phaser, and fuzz but since they start at only $99 it would be easy enough to pick up a few.
Revv’s Dynamis D25

REVV’s Dynamis D25 cranks up the company’s popular D20 amp by another 5 watts, but with footswitchable gain boost (a button the front does the same) and reverb powering up a Celestion V-30-equipped combo. It weighs about 30 pounds and uses Two notes ’ reactive load and impulse response XLR-out, and takes REVV into the low-gain game, with gain and volume controls, and 3-band EQ. The new variation on Shawn Tubbs’ Tile Overdrive/Boost doubles up on the original Tilt, with boost and drive sides, plus EQ and a 3-position tight switch, and top-mounted outputs. The pedal streets for $269. Also, instead of 12 dB boost, the new tilt has a 20 dB bump.
