"I think Johnny Hiland is the most versatile guitar player I've ever heard. From Bill Monroe to Eddie Van Halen, he can play it all." - RICKY SKAGGS If you tried, you couldn't make up a story this good: legally blind kid grows up in a trailer home in rural Maine. A guitar prodigy, he tours with the family band starting at age 8, wins local and regional competitions, moves to Nashville, ends up dropping jaws all over town, doing sessions with Ricky Skaggs, Toby Keith, Randy Travis, Janie Fricke and many more, and gets signed by Steve Vai when his manager leaves a demo snippet on Steve's voicemail box.  To find out more go to www.johnnyhilandband.com.  Analysis Plus instrument cables are featured in his new DVD.

“The Analysis Plus leads have totally transformed my in-ear monitor sound.   I have no idea how it works technically, but there is so much more clarity and detail to the sound which is crucial when relying totally on an in-ear mix.  It’s made a massive difference… Thanks to Analysis Plus and aanvil audio for supplying the cables.”

-Paul Carrack

“I love the Analysis Plus Bass Oval cable because it give a balanced sound with a linear response.  Not only is there more clarity and punch, but more bass as  well.  The bass sound is very musical and fits well into the overall musical picture.  As a bonus my instrument has become more responsive…”

-Jeremy Meek

Issaquah, WA, indie rock trio Modest Mouse was formed in 1993 by vocalist/guitarist Isaac Brock, bassist Eric Judy, and drummer Jeremiah Green. The Lonesome Crowded West, was the band's breakthrough, and in the wake of a major-label bidding war, they signed to Sony. The rarities collection Building Nothing out of Something appeared on Up in early 2000, followed later that year by their long-awaited Epic debut, The Moon & Antarctica. In 2001, the band issued the Everywhere and His Nasty Parlor Tricks EP and K released Sad Sappy Sucker, a "lost album" that was intended to be the group's full-length debut back in 1994. Brock kept busy with his Ugly Casanova side project, which delivered Sharpen Your Teeth in 2002. Modest Mouse finally returned in 2004 with Good News for People Who Love Bad News, their best-received record and a Top 40 hit as well. For their next record, Brock enlisted the help of former Smiths guitarist Johnny Marr, who not only added his songwriting and playing skills to We Were Dead Before the Ship Even Sank -- which was released in early 2007.

Built on a foundation of hope, the band was formed by brothers Jamey (guitar) and Geoff Ice (bass) while the brothers were still in their teens, later Josh Jenkins (guitar), Denton Hunker (drums), and Wilkerson entered the line-up.  After recording their first album in their church’s basement, GRO was soon opening for Bon Jovi in Houston and playing gigs every weekend. Then in early 2009 the band released their first major label debut on Virgin Records.  Since its release, Out of My Hands has earned GRO coveted spots on tours with the likes of Collective Soul, Gavin DeGraw, NeedtoBreathe, and David Cook.  Plus, the band’s song “Outside” was heard on MTV’s “The Hills” and “On Your Own” was used as the men’s sign-off song for the hit show, “So You Think You Can Dance.”

 "The Yellow Oval is awesome!! It really makes a difference! The bass is tightened up, highs are smooth and sweet, and it really cuts thru sooo nice!

“ When performing, It’s important for me to have the best response from any piece of gear. In the past,
I used to think gear meant amplifiers, guitars, strings and effects only. I know now that the connection between all the parts can also really make a difference. Analysis cables are that difference.  As soon as I plugged one in, I heard a brilliance and clarity from the amp, as if I just changed my strings. The best
way to produce a clear musical statement is to have a clear musical sound!"

"The best cables we have ever used."

"I use Pro Oval Studio from guitar to stompbox to amplifier, and Clear Oval for amp to cabinet."

"Analysis-Plus Rules!"

"A $3,000 guitar, boutique pedals all over the floor, boutique amp in the back, and cheap cables hooking it all together. Does that sound like you? Find out what your missing; get Analysis Plus and stand back, your gonna be blown away." - Nick

"Analysis plus cables have changed my sound forever, When I replaced my old guitar cables with Analysis plus guitar cables, I was getting the most amazing tone I have ever heard! I couldn't believe my ears! I started to hear more of what I was playing! These cables are a must if you are a professional musician! You will notice a tone difference right away! I honestly will never go back to any other guitar cable, so thank you Analysis plus for creating such a work of art!"
