It’s that magical time of year again… Post-election season beer-in-the-shower-alone party! Also, Winter NAMM gently floated down upon us last week as it does and, as gear-heads are wont to do, the time has come to all huddle together around the warm glow of the Internet to speculate and pre-emptively judge equipment and instruments before we get to actually see them!
