Top 100 Must-Follow Music Resources on Twitter, Pt. 7: Music Gear

 

We musicians are known for making big spur-of-the-moment purchases every once in a while. You know– that vintage guitar you just couldn’t live without, the fancy analog delay pedal in the boutique gear store, a drum cymbal that had your name on it, a new sampler with more memory!

Following music gear stores on Twitter can be a double-edged sword if you’re prone to whipping out your wallet on a whim. On the one hand, you’ll have all the latest bargains and gear reviews displayed in your Twitter feed– tempting you with each tweet. On the other hand, if you have a little will power, you can monitor your feed for the real steals and make smart gear purchases.
