John D'Angelico is considered one of the two greatest guitar builders of the 20th century. He's been gone for more than 50 years, but his name lives on. Current D'Angelico Guitars are not the classic jazz boxes of yesterday, but they look very nice! 

From GTR Store, enter to win a D'Angelico NYSD - 9 in black sunburst. This solid-body, LP-style axe sells for $1,099. ]]></description>

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.]]></description>

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.]]></description>
