The Laboratory Journal 2

More Lessons = More Rock
We are starting to sign up students for bass, drums, voice, and of course guitar. Keyboards are coming soon. We've extended our crazy free lesson promo through march: Sign up for your first month of music lessons, and The Laboratory pays for the first lesson. Our newly renovated lesson rooms are clean, well-lit, and cheerily painted.

Illusionary Doors
The front door that has traditionally led into and out of our store is slated to be decommissioned. In the near future, you will enter through the door leading into our newly added additional showroom. You will ogle at the dense armada of drum sets, then make your way into our original confines to be treated to the usual vast assortment of guitars, basses, keyboards, as well as recording and live sound equipment. We have already begun arranging things over in the new space, so feel free to stop by to see the progress. It's somewhat exciting!


Lotsa Drums
Our expanded showroom, to which I've alluded several times above, is very nearly complete, and has lots of drum kits set up for your enjoyment. You thought the Yamaha Absolute Maple kit was nice stacked up on a shelf? That was nothing. We've literally put them on a pedestal for all to see. Nearby, the Mapex M Birch five piece (with a free 8'!) is set up and tuned for action. Alongside those, the throaty roar of Sonor's Force 2007 awaits.

Crouching Teacher, Hidden Guitar Medic
Joe the Guitar Medic has been transplanted from his familiar perch at the back of the store. At present, he is holed up in what will be a lesson room. The endgame is to have him set up in a prominent area on the floor, for all to gaze upon his wizardry. Customers who are accustomed to walking to the back to see if The Guitar Medic is in will now be greeted by our ergonomic and well stocked shipping desk. Much less exciting to witness, but our shipping guys all think it's tops.

New Products:
New in the Amps department is a frightening display of compact and portable tone that kicks monstrous amounts of butt: The Orange Tiny Terror. This thing is the size of a small toolbox, and is a class A, all tube guitar amplifier with prodigious tone! It is switchable from 7 to 15 watts, and don't let that fool you into thinking that this thing can't drive a 4x12 cabinet. It's sound is just astonishing. You should come by and crank it up. And the price? Very affordable.

Also, after many requests, we've begun stocking Vocal Spray. Originally I though this was a defense product used to ward off approaching singers, but alas it is in fact a substance made to make their jobs even easier. Can you believe that? You can hardly be bothered to carry your own microphone to the gig, and somebody invents a tasty and refreshing spray pump to sooth your voice? Amazing. You singers know we're kidding, right? We still love you.

Lastly but not leastestly, stop by our web site, which continues to swell with options. You can find us at www.laboratorymusic.com
