In the month of Halloween, we had a scary amount of great guitar gear to look at (and, indeed, to play).

Here, we take a digested look at everything from guitar land that we reviewed on the site during the month of October. We start with the Vigier Excalibur Supraa.

MusicRadar's verdict:

"While not an everyday supper, the Excalibur is sonically filling. Chez Vigier definitely deserves a visit!"
