Hahn Guitars Model 228
(starting at $2800)
If you’ve been searching for a time machine back to the
Golden Era, luthier Chihoe Hahn has an unbelievable deal for
you. Made from a solid piece of swamp ash and packed with
Lollar pickups, the Model 228 is truly a handmade instrument;
even the hardware is fabricated in Hahn’s Garnerville, New
York shop. The 228 also features a wafer-thin nitro finish and a
Bakelite pickguard. This has to be heard to be believed.

Duesenberg Vintage Analog Effects
(starting at $369.98)
Duesenberg is getting into the analog effects game and their
three new pedals have all of the German sensibilities that we’ve
come to know and love. The Red Echo provides up to 600ms of
delay, the White Drive is a classic booster that works well with
your guitar’s volume, and the Green Comp is a vintage-style
compressor with a more controllable attack. While the names
aren’t the most inventive, they are hand-wired, feature Neutrik
jacks and are true bypass.
