Win a Boutique Effects Pedal from Cannoy Guitars

Cannoy 45ACP Giveaway


It’s not often a boutique pedal manufacturer gives you the chance to win any of their pedals. The good people at Cannoy Guitars are doing just that with their latest pedal giveaway!

This giveaway requires a video, but the guidelines are loose. You don’t have to be the fastest shredder, just tell Cannoy why you deserve to win. And it’s not a voting contest, which is nice. The Cannoy staff will pick the winner. And said winner will have his or her choice of one of the following prizes: a “45ACP” overdrive pedal, a “Clockwork Compressor” pedal, a “Shaky Old Dog” tremolo pedal, a “Signal Pirate” delay pedal, or a “Pimp Slap” envelope filter pedal.

Win a Bishline Cimarron 5-String Banjo

Bishline Cimarron Banjo Giveaway
It’s been a while since I’ve posted a Bajno Hangout banjo giveaway. I deeply apologize to my readers in West Virgina.

Jokes aside, this is a heck of a banjo! The Bishline Cimarron 5-string banjo is built in the US of A, and features a walnut neck with fancy burl walnut resonator, ivoroid binding, and an ebony fingerboard with original MOP inlay. The Bishline Cimarron usually sells for $1,195.

Win a One Control Micro-Distro Pedal Power Distributor

One Control Micro-Distro
Japanese electronics maker One Control is currently hosting two giveaways on their Facebook page. First, everyone who likes their page is entered to win a Micro-Distro pedal power distributor. They will announce a winner once the page hits 1,000 likes.

The other giveaway requires a bit more work. Explain how you would use any One Control switcher in a YouTube video and the owner of the best video gets to chose any current One Control product as a prize.

Win a Sonor “Perfect Balance” Jojo Mayer Signature Model Bass Drum Pedal

Sonar JoJo Mayer Pedal Giveaway
Every good drummer knows the kick drum pedal is an extension of their body. If you want to keep a steady beat, let alone play fast, a good pedal is a must.

From The Definitive Recording Guide, you have a chance to win a brand new Sonor “Perfect Balance” Jojo Mayer Signature Model bass drum pedal. What this pedal lacks in flash, it makes up for in pure smoothness!

Win an EVH 5150III Head Autographed by Eddie Van Halen

EVH 5150III Head Giveaway


I know there’s been a lot of talk lately about Eddie Van Halen being a big fat lair, but it’s tough to argue with his tone!

From EVH Gear enter to win an EVH 5150III 100-watt amp head autographed by Eddie. It’s three massive-sounding channels of pure EVH tone and power—in ivory, with four-button footswitch included—and personalized by the man himself.
