Steven Tari Posted October 6, 2010 Share Posted October 6, 2010 Me I'm kinda funny when it comes to my gear. When I find something that works for me, I stick with them. My guitars are Gibson Family, My amp's and PA's are Peavey. My electronic gear (from Keyboards to recording Equip.) are KORG. My mic's and Wireless systems are Shure.

rocketman Posted October 6, 2010 Share Posted October 6, 2010 Hmm, I really don't know. I've owned stuff all across the board. Heck, I've even changed picks more times than I can count. I guess for me "variety is the spice of life." EDIT: OK, all of my mics have been Shure, but that's about it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WahKeen Posted October 6, 2010 Share Posted October 6, 2010 I just like quality. I can't go wrong with Gibson. Even my Studios sound great using my my Line6 pod through my amps or Bose towers at my church. I really think you can't go wrong with Gibbys.

FirstMeasure Posted October 6, 2010 Share Posted October 6, 2010 No true Brand Loyalty for me, my sound come first. I generally prefer Gibson and Fender guitars, something about getting it right the first time. When it comes to pedals I check out Dunlop (MXR) first. But if Ibanez or Boss or one of the other companies put out a good pedal I'd get that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FirstMeasure Posted October 6, 2010 Share Posted October 6, 2010 Oh yeah, Amps and Picks... I do like Mesa and Fender Amps, but Egnater makes some pretty nice sounding stuff. Picks, Fender 351 Mediums. I've taken to using Red Moto and Black Moto because they look nice on the Mic Stand. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

freak show Posted October 6, 2010 Share Posted October 6, 2010 I'm not "true" to any company. It's just silly to feel an obligation to buy one brand of anything -- except Worcestershire Sauce. I prefer Lea and Perrins. If I had to be "true" to a guitar company, it would be Martin. The guys at Gibson could learn a lot about how to run a business by paying close attention to Martin & Co....

freak show Posted October 6, 2010 Share Posted October 6, 2010 Ouch... My remark wasn't intended to be an attack. Just a bit of "constructive criticism"... Or were you referring to the Worcestershire Sauce? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Silenced Fred Posted October 6, 2010 Share Posted October 6, 2010 Fender and Gibson electrics, not sure on acoustics yet, but I do like Taylors but have yet to own one. Amps, I like Fender and sometimes Marshall. Accessories, it's got be Dunlop. Lea and Perrin's is the epitome of Worcestershire sauce. I have yet to find one as good Freak Show knows what's up Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Twiz Posted October 6, 2010 Share Posted October 6, 2010 For guitars, I'm a Gibson guy all the way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Riffster Posted October 6, 2010 Share Posted October 6, 2010 Gibson guitars are top on my list, I like them and now that I have a historic LP I like them even more. My Explorer is the most comfortable guitar to play. I grew up wanting a Fender Stratocaster and I am very happy with the one I have but I do not see buying other Fender guitars, I am not a Tele guy and other models appeal very little to me. I do not mind looking at other brands as long as there is quality at a good price and I like the styling. Amps - I just don't have a lot of experience with them, my Mesa 5:25 has everything that I need. I'd be pretty open to try other brands. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BigKahune Posted October 6, 2010 Share Posted October 6, 2010 No particular loyalty per se. But Gibson is the brand I started out with (many years ago), and is still my "go to" brand. Of the guitars I currently own, the highest number of any manufacturer is Gibson - four. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DanvillRob Posted October 6, 2010 Share Posted October 6, 2010 I'm simple, (or so I was told by my teachers), Fender electrics and Gibson acoustics. Amps, Fender. Picks.... I used to cut up old credit cards, but my BIL bought me a gross of Fender Heavy triangle picks year ago....I'm still using them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Golem Posted October 6, 2010 Share Posted October 6, 2010 Me I'm kinda funny when it comes to my gear. When I find something that works for me, I stick with them. ....... I have way too much stuff ... but at least it's enuf stuff, quantity-wise, to provide a clearly observable statistical trend: EBMM and MarkBass. Yet, this is not any result of brand loyalty. I am acqusitive, and opportunistic, and I tend to favor used gear. These two brands just happen to "cross my path" most often, at good prices, from reliable sources. But, to repeat ... I have NO LOYALTIES. EBMM and MarkBass are not the majority of my stuff but are the two largest minorities. My "disloyalties" to my apparent faves FAR outnumber the faves. ------------------------- OTOH, given their accidental predominance in my "community of gear", if opportunism were no longer a workable approach .... IOW if I hadda order NEW stuff, and I could order ANY brand .... then I guess your method of "When I find something that works for me, I stick with them" would lead me to stick with EBMM and MarkBass. Actually thinking about LOYALTY .... if I have any sort of emotionally driven brand loyalty, it would be to the team of Ned Steinberger and Stuart Spector. I have several examples of their stuff, but I'm in no way actively looking for more of it ! ` Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
brundaddy Posted October 6, 2010 Share Posted October 6, 2010 I am true to myself & my music. The instruments are just tools. My gear is diverse but more of my electrics are Gibson than not. Solid guitars but they can be somewhat overrated. Some of the best stuff comes out when I'm not playing a Gibson & some when I am. Definitely not of a drone mindeset, "I ammmm a loyyalllll consssuuuuumerrrrrrrrrrr..." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RichCI Posted October 6, 2010 Share Posted October 6, 2010 No one in particular although I'm partial to Analogman and Foxrox pedals (both build great stuff that sound great and are solid) and tend to favor Gibson and Fender guitars. I have a mess of stuff by various companies though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
