Head Hugger(TM) the all new acoustic strap button fits on to most acoustic guitars that don't have the extra manufacturers strap button and you don't want(or like)to screw in an aftermarket button. The Head Hugger(TM) eliminates the need for string or leather at the top of the headstock. No more string rubbing at your thumb while you are playing at the top of the neck.


Head Hugger(TM)also sits better on the strap to help sort out guitar balance when worn, no more strap lag from string/leather when you sit down or stand up to play. Head Hugger(TM) gives a more comfortable playing position for larger or female players, as it is easier to put on and take off your strap. Head Hugger(TM) also provides a better and more relaxed hand posture position when playing, and doesn't get in your way like the string/leather may do. The Head Hugger(TM) has a secure clamping action, and is also lined with Poron(TM)a closed cell foam with rebound memory on the inside of the back/front. So it cant float around on the headstock to scratch your instrument(s). Although the Head Hugger(TM) was invented for the acoustic guitar it also fits on to other instruments too!!

No more messing about with ties or knots to fit to another instrument, just slacken the finger bolt and fit Head Hugger(TM)to another instrument. Head Hugger(TM)Fits in seconds and you don't even need to remove it from the strap, Head Hugger(TM)can also be used with a standard "button locking device".

V-AMP 2: The next step in virtual amplification.
Like our already legendary original V-AMP, the V-AMP 2 is based on state-of-the-art amp modeling technology, allowing you to achieve a wide variety of realistic amp sounds without the hassle of miking an amp. To that end, the V-AMP 2 now features twice as many amp models for 32 total, plus our 15 original speaker simulations, which can be selected and activated independently of the amp models. Read on: you’ll see why the V-AMP 2 is suited for much more than just home recording or practice applications.
For extra tone-shaping power, the V-AMP 2 boasts a built-in 24-bit studio-quality stereo effects unit with an impressive selection of specially developed, great-sounding algorithms, including chorus, tremolo, compression, noise gate, delay and much more, plus several combinations. A separate manually or MIDI-controllable wah-wah effect and 9 stereo reverb types are available in combination with any other effect, amp or speaker setting. In addition, 2 effects parameters are now directly accessible.
You still get an integrated chromatic tuner, a tap tempo function for real-time adjustment of the effect’s speed parameter, an adjustable stereo aux input, a stereo line output with speaker simulation, an effective 3-band EQ with amp-model dependent characteristics, a master volume control and an adjustable headphones output. Plus a MIDI interface for real-time remote control and automation, data transfer and access to additional parameters, and 125 onboard presets, organized in 25 banks and including 50 presets by renowned guitarists.
In addition, the V-AMP 2 features five practical configuration modes for various applications and a presence control that simulates the negative feedback of tube amps. Plus a new preamp bypass function that allows you to use the V-AMP 2 as a stereo effects unit and dramatically improved gate and noise reduction circuits for better sound quality and an impressive signal-to-noise ratio of 90 dB.
Best of all, the V-AMP 2 is a breeze to operate, thanks to its unusually transparent user interface with dedicated controls for all essential settings. It comes with a dual footswitch for preset selection and tuner control plus an AC adapter in an attractive, durable carrying bag.
