• [New Product] Five New Oils and Gels for Brass Instruments Join Bach’s “Synthetic Plus” Line!

  

  2026/11/11

  Five new products have been added to Bach’s “Synthetic Plus” series of musical instrument lubricants! This series is designed to ensure smooth operation and long-lasting performance while protecting instruments from corrosion and oxidation. You can choose the right product based on the application—such as rotary valves or slide tubes—and the required viscosity.
  
  ■ Bearing & Linkage Oil / BBL1ZSG
  A high-viscosity oil suitable for rotary valve bearings and linkages. It can also be used on springs, such as those in water keys.
  
  ■ Kick Slide Oil / BKS1ZSG
  Oil for the first and third slides of the trumpet. It supports quick and accurate pitch adjustments during performance.
  
  ■ Rotary Valve Oil / BRO1ZSG
  A low- to medium-viscosity oil for rotary valves. Suitable for trombones, horns, tubas, rotary trumpets, and other instruments.
  
  ■ Valve Oil 〈Vintage Formula〉 / BVO2ZSG
  A medium- to high-viscosity valve oil. It helps maintain the airtight seal of pistons—such as those in instruments that have been used for many years—that require high-viscosity oil, supporting comfortable playing.
  
  ■ Tuning Slide Gel / BTS1ZSG
  A gel suitable for the main tubes and tuning slides of trumpets and trombones. It has a higher viscosity than the conventional Bach Tuning Slide Grease “2942B” and is formulated with antioxidants to prevent corrosion and oxidation.
  
  Why not incorporate products suited to your instrument’s condition and specific parts into your daily maintenance routine? Be sure to check out the new Bach “Synthetic Plus” lineup!

• Product Review: "WARM AUDIO / Dirty Boy Jr. Booster" by Ryoji Saito – Now Available!

  

  2026/11/11

  We have published a product review by Ryoji Saito—a versatile composer, guitarist, and singer-songwriter.
  In this review, he explores the "Dirty Boy Jr. Booster," a guitar effect pedal from WARM AUDIO.
  Featuring 10dB of gain, this pedal delivers a wide range of boost tones, from clean to aggressive. Its flexible EQ controls allow for diverse sound shaping—ranging from transparent, pristine boosts to tones with rich, saturated breakup.
  The review includes audio samples and provides a detailed look at the pedal’s sonic characteristics and usability.
  "It boosts volume and presence without altering your guitar's core tone more than necessary."
  "In situations where the sound feels too forward, the low end becomes a bit bloated, or you simply need a bit more definition, the
  combination of the EQ and the 'Freq' switch is a major advantage."
  "It maintains the essential performance of a booster while allowing for precise adjustments tailored to your specific guitar and amplifier. It’s a highly practical design."
  As these comments highlight, the pedal is highly regarded not only for its core performance as a booster but also for its ability to fine-tune the sound to suit your specific gear.
  This is a must-have booster for any guitarist. Check out the full review to discover everything it has to offer! [Product Review] WARM

• [New Products] PLAYTECH Launches Four New Effects Pedals with Modern Designs and Versatile Sounds!

  

  2026/11/11

  PLAYTECH, known for its affordable yet high-quality instruments, has just released four new effects pedals with modern designs!
  The new lineup includes the BOOTES Heavy Distortion, VELA Digital Delay, LYNX Boost, and GEMINI MOD. Combining sophisticated designs with distinctive features, these pedals give guitarists new options for shaping their sound.
  
  BOOTES Heavy Distortion
  A high-gain distortion pedal built for everything from heavy riffs to cutting leads. Equipped with a 3-band EQ and a dedicated BOOST footswitch, it delivers powerful metal tones.
  
  VELA Digital Delay
  A digital delay featuring three modes: DIGITAL, ANALOG, and TAPE. With delay times ranging from 30 to 1,200 ms, it covers a wide range of delay tones, from clear repeats to warm echoes.
  
  LYNX Boost
  A compact booster with a simple single-knob design. The boost level can be adjusted from +2 to +20 dB, making it ideal for increasing your volume during solos or driving your amp harder.
  
  Gemini MOD
  A bold reworking of the popular GEMINI model, which combines reverb and delay. The reverb has been removed and replaced with a new momentary delay function. In addition to standard delay effects, it opens up unique creative possibilities by switching to a different delay setting only while the footswitch is held down.
  
  All four new models are now available at Sound House. Be sure to check out PLAYTECH's new lineup, which combines modern designs with a wide range of sounds!
