Grip Cube 100

Advantages: cheap, common, such a great range
Disadvantages: Can't say i have found any yet

...ok so you may think its a little sad or strange that im writing a review on plecs, but as a guitarist i have tried loads of different models, styles, thickness' and makes of plectrum. But i can honestly say nothing compares to Jim Dunlop NYLON plectrums, the series contains all different thinkness' of plecs for different purposes, it's completly up to you as to what you use each for, however heres what i would reccomend: 38mm- Strumming 46mm- General Strumming+light picking 60mm- Strumming, Picking-Multi Purpose (personal favourite) 73mm- Strumming+Picking-Multi Purpose 88mm- Strumming+Picking 100mm-Picking (Possibly strumming) You can pick any of these up for around £0.30-£1.00 from pretty much any local music shop, if not they should be shot, and the great thing about these plectrums is how flexable the series is, you can always find...

Advantages: Full-length, nice key action
Disadvantages: Not a real piano!

It's very easy to get to grips with, or to use with external racks for a wider variety of sounds (I've used both a JV and the current Nord rack with this piano).; Specs: • Light, Standard, Heavy • Tone generator: • AI² Synthesis System • Polyphony: • Max.. 32 notes • Sound programs: • Piano (Stereo Sample), Electric piano,Harpsichord, Vibraphone, Organ,Strings • Effects: • Reverb, Chorus • Recorder: • 1 track, 4,000 events, Play, Record • Demo: • 6 songs • Metronome: • Tempo, Beat, Volume • Controls: • Master volume, Power switch, Voice selector, Reverb, Chorus, Function, Record, Play...
