What brand has all your loyalty?
- Thread starter Sam Dingle
- Start date
Fender, Ampeg (second hand USA made, actually), Tech21, D'Addario ... and Epiphone for their T-Birds.
Long standing loyalty toward Scott Toilet Paper.
I have favorites, but no loyalty. I favor Fender and Epiphone basses and guitars; GK, Peavey, and Marshall amps/cabs; and EHX and Boss pedals. I take that back. I'm loyal to Sennheiser when it comes to microphones.

MTD Basses, Bartolini pickups, BBE, and Tecamp amplifiers. This gear and the people behind it have served me very well for a lot of years & gigs.
On the never again list- any and all Fender products & associated companies. That bridge has been burnt too many times.

Brand loyalty?
Rockport for shoes
Land 'o Lake for butter
Kraft for cream cheese.
That's it.

I’m a Fender, Ampeg guy. I love my P bass and my fridge.
On guitar, I am trying to sell my Gibson because I decided I hate Gibson. I hate my Firebird. I love my two Fender Jazzmasters. I also have a Fender amp and cabs and a 1964 Fender reverb tank. So I love Fender guitars and amps.
On drums, I love my Sonor SQ1 kit, and Paiste cymbal set.
On acoustic, I have two Martins. One is still in the mail, it’s a D15M, which is, in my opinion, a stripped down D-18. The other is a D-18 which I think may just be the greatest acoustic guitar available.

Don't really have a particular loyalty as I've tried many brands of basses, and all we're good.
Atm, Fender is scratching the itch as I just loooooooove my pbass with a pick and some stainless steel rounds. But that's not to say it's a better instrument than the Spectors, EBMM, or Yamaha instruments I've owned. All great brands worthy of love and attention.

Most of my loyalty falls in the 707 area code of California... Mesa, Alembic, Turner... that's my gear folks. Also kinda' partial to Bag End loudspeakers over in Illinois. Got a couple Guilds and Gibsons too, though it's less of a loyalty than a circumstance. I just like them.
Hmmm.. well being a beginner and already having a few basses.. I'm diggin on my Ibanez and Ampeg stuff.
Subject to expand in time.

I also want to give a shoutout to surfy industries. They only have a few products but I have all of them except the brownfacer because my amp is already a Fender brownface.
I'm not loyal to any brand, but I am loyal to my existing instruments. I want to be the guy that plays the same bass his whole career and is known for it.
