I love my 2015 Snark SN-8. I purchased a Peterson Strobo-clip and a TC Unitune and (both are gone=sold). My Snark was just as fast, as accurate and had Better Note Detection (off my Bass) = True story. I even bought a hard case for it (however) I do also Love my TC Polytune 3 on my pedalboard ( that is my #1 ).

I don’t see them mentioned or used very much but if anyone has trouble with dropping picks or the pick moving on you then check out the Ibanez Wizard sand grip picks. I’ve been using them for a while and really like them because they are easy to hold and the size of them is perfect for me because they are a little smaller than a standard pick but are bigger than a jazz pick, so kind of right In The sweet spot.

I can confirm that D'Addario solderless cable kit works well. With that said, I recently got a Boss ES-8 loop switcher, and the jacks on the back are extremely close together. Because of that, the L plugs from the D'Addario kit are too large, preventing some of the jacks from being used. While they're really expensive, the Evidence Audio SIS (screw-in solderless) kits don't have that problem; they have just about the smallest plug footprint possible. It most definitely solved the problem and the sound quality and durability are great! It'd be interesting to see you shoot the Evidence Audio SIS out against the D'Addario solderless system.

It's an extremely under-the-radar product, but I would so enjoy seeing a review from you of the Timara String Drop made by Tim Wallis. I won't detail here what it is, or what it does, so your opinions don't get colored, but the idea strikes me as brilliant! Now, they are something that is normally purchased individually, but I was thinking of a full set, to do something *wonderful* with...

I much prefer the hex key(s) clamp behind the headstock. Ive had one on all my Jackson and Charvels and then added it to my Ibanez's later, nice thing is it holds the main hex and the smaller intonation one. With the variability in hex key heat treating I prefer to have a lot of replacements lying around.
