Guitar Hero, Meet Your Guitars

react-guitars.jpgYou can’t be a real Guitar Hero if you’re not rocking one of these joints – and at $60, they’re better than a bag of the funky stuff at a Jay Z concert. Peep it, designed for the PS 2, these Controller joints come in three styles, Reaper, Odyssey and the wood-grained Legacy. Nice!!! they’re wireless, comes with dual-effect pedals and make you look like Slash. Shit, you might even sound like Slash, especially if you got the Controllers AND that funky stuff.

Hot Tech – Northface 485 Collection

While North Face isn’t exactly obscure, they’re known for a decidely ski-slope aesthetic. Despite high tech performance that can’t be rivaled by any mainstream winter apparrel company, North Face gear often looks too sporty for the sophisicated environs of Park Ave, Knotting Hill and the Left Bank. Perhaps that singular brand image will be diversified now that this formidable California company has introduced the 485 Collection – what would Brooks Brother look like if North Face got a hold of it? This joint – a Cottonwood Jacket rocking superior technology, futurist material and modern American craftsmanship. This smart 3/4 trench, is made out of Primaloft insulation, Gore-Tex waterproofing, high-grade down and has the kind of fit and finish that lasts not only a season, but a lifetime. Check out the new look at northface.com.
