Check out our TAP-GUITARS – we want you for endorsement!!
 
You are open for new ways in making music …
You still love extraordinary instruments; you are an experienced bass- or guitar-player; or you even have a background in playing tapping instruments and you are still convinced that groove, pop-appeal and some roots are more important than being a virtuous “noodler” which can play notes faster on the fret-board than Michael Schuhmacher can drive and you think about all the chicks too which only like to shake their hips to the music – than you should contact us: info@mm-wo.de . Or check with us at our booth on the European Bassday in Viersen.
 
What do we expect from you really?
You should learn to be a tapper and play our instrument on a lot of Live-Concerts you do with your band, tell the press some nice things about the KOYABU or the TENAYO Tapper, you are willing to do some photo-shootings for us and you should visit our booths at all the conventions we are in, talking with the people and play some tunes for them.
 
If you like to do all that for us you will get one of our Tap-Guitars and a lot of support for nothing!!

Music-Marketing with TAP-Guitar @ European BassDay 2009

Music-Marketing GmbH was founded in 2005...
We are still selling stringed instruments and a lot of accessories all over Europe - mostly to shops. And we are specialized in distributing very extra ordinary stringed instruments like Sitars, Tap-Guitars, Slides, Pedal Steels, Auto-Harps, Soprano Guitars, Classic Guitars with 7, 8, and 10 strings and much more. But our most known trademarks are PACCS, TENAYO, ORFEA, WHITEBORN & HADGET. Our General-Manager Hans-Gerd Pflugbeil is also well known for his work with ROLAND, CASIO or the German Magazine GITARRE & BASS.


This year at Viersen we would like to introduce you to our 12-String Japanese Tap-Guitar – the famous KOYABU Symmetric Board which was constructed by Mr. Yoshitaka Koyabu. The instrument can be played by both hands tapping. Perhaps you can compare it a little to the piano playing technique but at all with guitar and bass strings which will be touched down with your finger tips on to the flat fret-board. The idea of the instrument bases on the Original Chapman-Stick which was first introduced in the early 80s by famous musicians like Tony Levin (Peter Gabriel & King Crimson) or Nick Beggs (Kajagoogoo). But the concept of the KOYABU is still different even its very special design. All parts of the instrument are standard, there is a body (this still causes in a wider spectrum of mid frequencies) and the tuning is symmetric (inverted fifths on the bass side & ascending fourths on the melody site). Both hands move uncrossed on each side of the fret-board. There is a wider spacing between each string and it has a 30’’ scale. So no extra strings are needed. At all the KOYABU sounds much smoother and more dynamic than other well known Tapping-Instruments and the pricing is very well.



Ron Baggerman & Michael Koch (BiusK) will be happy to show you these wonderful instruments at our booth. We will play all that stuff no one would trust to play really. So you are all welcome!!

Accugroove Synergy AMP

NO COMPROMISE
38 years of passionate bass playing have been poured into designing the ultimate no compromise lightweight amp.
Our promise is to not allow cost to dictate the quality of the design or components we use. In addition, like all our gear it is designed and build here in the good old USA. We’ll let the other guys outsource jobs & manufacturing to Asia.

KEEP IT SIMPLE
Total bliss comes from the careful selection of proper EQ and relentless engineering. Following our goal of Studio Quality sound for live applications, our simple 4-band EQ is dead flat when at 12 O’clock. This enables you to hear the true sound of your instrument as if you were still in the studio. There is no coloration like that that associated with other brands.

TONE or WEIGHT
Until now, you had to choose between tone or power. Lightweight usually means no power or tone. Likewise, great tone and power usually means hauling around a heavy lead-sled.
Our hybrid design with our amazing sounding 12AX7 tube in the pre gets rid of the sterility that is associ-ated with lighter amps. Our extremely high quality Class H amp and switching power supply keeps the weight down to what most preamps weigh!

BOTTOM LINE - FEEL THE BASS!
Synergy is the ultimate no compromise lightweight, amazingly simple, extremely powerful amp that has crushing tone. This amp is pure sonic bliss!

Nickelback’s Mike Kroeger Teams Up With The AH1200-12, Trace Elliot’s Road Warrior

 
Canadian four-piece Nickelback were already a household name thanks to 2001’s 'Silver Side Up' and its massive lead single ‘How You Remind Me’.  Though it seemed they would never hit such heights again, just five years later they had a massive hit with ‘Rock Star’.  It became everyone’s favourite anthem.
 
Now touring the USA in support of latest album ‘Dark Horse’, these stadium rockers need resilience and power from their amplification and Trace Elliot are on hand to deliver the goods.  Bassist Mike Kroeger brother of vocalist and guitarist Chad, plays the Trace Elliot AH1200-12 head and 1818/1048H cabs. While on the road, he had this to say about his unbeatable setup: “My Trace rig is road proven to be a warrior.  I get rock solid and crystal clear tone every night and the f*&#ing thing will not blow up or break down.”
 
Presuming he is not trying to wreck it physically, it will certainly take whatever locomotive riffs are being thrown at it.  What with Nickelback’s reputation for embracing the tough conditions of playing to adoring fans, it seems the band have found their perfect match with Trace Elliot.
