new video on our YouTube channel

This year is flying by and is exceeding all our expectations in every way! We’re not going to post any pictures of videos this week in this post, but if you go to our YouTube channel you will find a couple of new ones and new ones that will be added during this week… Since we get very good responses to the short demo of our latest Elevation we decided to make some more..! We’ve just uploaded a video where Marc Vanderkley (Vanderkley bass amps) is trying out the same Elevation on his own amp. The recording is made in exactly the same way as the other video so you can get a pretty good idea of how his amp compares to the Hevos amp that’s used in the other demo. Let us know what you want to hear/see, what kind of  preamp setting, tone setting, anything..! If it’s possible, we’ll record it and post it on the Tube.. :)

Besides that we had Niels vd Steenhoven in the shop who also tried out one of our guitars, the Reflection. It has our own pickups in it, Swamp Ash body and all Rock Maple neck & fingerboard. Take a look at our YouTube channel to see what it’s all about..!

First of all we’d like to take the opportunity to give a BIG Thank You! to all the people who give DeGier Guitars & Basses a special place in their hearts..! Also all the musicians who’ve joined the DeGier family are very much appreciated! You are the ones who make this all possible..!

Having that said we’d like you to meet another member of the DeGier family:

We have launched a new website! It’s totally dedicated to Repairs & Customising. Mind you, it’s in dutch completely, so all of you who don’t speak or read dutch can look at the nice pictures… :) You can find it right here!

Besides that we’ve also posted some new videos on YouTube. Check out this one where two good friends of DeGier are jamming together on our instruments at the North Sea Jazz Festival 2008!

Ow, and check out these pictures of a new six string Elevation that’s being finished in the coming weeks..!

Habib Faye and Gerald Veasley on De Gier

After one week back at work we can say that this year is going to be an awesome year! The DeGier family is getting bigger and bigger and we’re making new friends everyday (not only on MySpace… ;-) )! You’ve probably noticed but the buzz is going ’round and there’s good reason for it! All of you who’ve ever been in the shop trying out our guitars or basses know this already. But if you don’t know what it’s all about, why all these professional players are starting to get more and more into DeGier you’ve got to find a way for yourself to find out what it’s all about… You have to get one of these instruments in your own hands and feel and hear what it’s all about..! I can easily say you will not be dissapointed!

Besides that we’ve got word from our good friend Habib Faye that they’ve just finished a couple of amazing shows in Denmark with Angelique Kidjo.
Here’s a picture of Habib on his 4-string DeGier Origin Custom.

We’re also working on another signature bass, but this one is going to have only one signature! This one is going to blow every other bass out of the water! So keep your eyes focussed right here and check back regular to make sure you don’t miss out on this one..!

And again, here’s another short video of our visit to the North Sea Jazz festival. This time there’s also a short jam of Habib with an unknown guitarist who’s got some nice rythm! :)
