Tony McManus: guitarplayer:
virtuosity from the soul.
To find a unique voice on so ubiquitous an instrument as the acoustic guitar is quite
an achievement: to do so within a centuries old idiom where the instrument has no real history is truly remarkable. In little over ten years as a professional musician Tony McManus has come to be recognised throughout the world as the leading guitarist in Celtic Music. From early childhood his twin obsessions of traditional music and acoustic guitar have worked together to produce a startlingly original approach to this ancient art. In Tony’s hands the complex ornamentation normally associated with fiddles and pipes are accurately transferred to guitar in a way that preserves the integrity and emotional impact of the music.
Self taught from childhood, initially through listening to the family record collection, McManus abandoned academia in his twenties to pursue music full time. The session scene in Glasgow and Edinburgh provided the springboard for gigs around Scotland and a studio set for BBC Radio, frequently rebroadcast, began to spread the word.
With the loyal support of Greentrax Recordings in Scotland Tony’s first self titled recording in 1996, followed by Pourquoi Quebec in 1999 led to worldwide recognition ...

Lonnie Knight is a singer, guitarist and songwriter based in Minneapolis Minnesota. Lonnie's cds include Better Days, Cain's Blood, Big Shoes and Standing Around Until the End.
Lonnie Knight’s guitar playing alone has astonished nearly everyone who’s seen it happen during the past four decades, from his days in Jokers Wild to his role in the Hoopsnakes. It’s made him a multiple winner over the years for best guitarist at the Minnesota Music Awards.
Tall and thin, his presence while playing the guitar gives him the appearance of an authority looking down calmly on his six-string subject; but it's the actual sound from the instrument, the pure music he makes of the guitar, that confirms the authority.
His songwriting began with Jokers Wild, but over time it was refining itself to the folk-oriented work that anchored two Lonnie Knight albums in the 1970s. He was working as a studio musician at Herb Pilhofer's Sound 80 Recording Studio, and touring nationally on the Bitter End College Coffeehouse. Producer George Hanson took a liking to Knight's playing. Hanson produced his first album Family in the Wind, which was followed up with Song for a City Mouse. The title was an homage to the Mankato band in which Knight played for several years in the early 1970s. That relationship began when Knight was playing with the Chad Mitchell Group and met City Mouse founder Bill Steiner. Throughout the 70s, Knight continued a prolific career playing in studio and on stage ...

a T-Rex Story
Our mission is to:
Provide musicians with extremely good professional gear, for medium money.
Our general goal is to:
- Maintain a complete line of pedals for guitar players
- Maintain a complete line of pedals for bass players
Our plan (July 1st,2005 - June 30th, 2006) is to release 7 new pedals:
- BassJuice. Smooth, delicious bass distortion. Was released mid july 2005
- M๘ller. Overdrive pedal with separate boost, will be released mid nov. 2005
- FuelTank. The Power Supply! Gives 9 volt DC, 12 volt DC and 12 volt AC. Comes with all cables, at the end of 2005
- Reverb pedal. Revolutionary warm vintage analogue reverb. Early 2006
- Death Distortion pedal. (Heavy Metal)
- Vibe. Development is taking place. Jimi Hendrix gave the original sound
- Bass Compressor. Same technology as the reverb. Transparent and vintage.
T-Rex was founded as a private company by Lars Dahl and Sebastian Jensen back in 1996. These two guys was thrilled by the MIDI standard and MIDI technology. They believed, that they could build some of the best MIDI control gear. And they did.
The first issue of the T-Rex BigFoot MIDI board was yellow. The board could control more MIDI units. Later came the T-Rex Mac1 MIDI controller build for the 19 inch rack. Lots os loops, VCA control, mixer etc. Using the BigFoot, you could now control the Mac1 placed in the rack, which again controlled almost everything mounted.
The best MIDI setup gear was sold to a lot of danish professional guitar players, back in the nineties. Most of them still use it. But the time for rack gear was running out. Players were buying more and more effect pedals. Everybody was moving away from the rack towards pedals.
