Toca Percussion’s EP Splash Congas and Bongos — a collaboration between the company and percussionist Erik Piza — feature a gloss black base coat adorned with vibrant splashes of yellow, teal and Piza’s signature orange. The artistic expression of the drums, each of which is a one-of-a-kind creation, draws inspiration from the works of Jackson Pollock.
The Model Twenty Two active flat-panel guitar cabinet from Eminent Technology can act as an FRFR speaker for acoustic guitar and instrument modeling, or switch it into Amp+Cab mode and run it with pedals while accessing 350 watts of clean headroom. The 16-pound speaker measures 16 inches high by 22 inches wide by 5 inches deep and has an open back design with ports allowing for extra clarity in the lower register. The Model Twenty Two has a preamp mode, a cab voice-only mode and a Amp+Cab mode to emulate an electric guitar for the player who just wants to plug in and play. The speaker boasts a diaphragm area akin to a 2-by-12 cabinet but uses fewer materials than a 1-by-10 cab, slashing material consumption in production.
