(eMusicWire.Org) – The Kilpatrick Audio Vibro Man has been awarded a Premier Gear Award in the March 2010 issue of Premier Guitar.

The Premier Gear Award is an honor bestowed upon a piece of gear—whether guitar, amp, effect, or other gear— that has been extraordinary enough to impress the staff of Premier Guitar. Despite the high quality of all gear reviewed by Premier Guitar, only exemplary items earn the award.

“The Vibro Man, Kilpatrick’s multi-function modulation powerhouse, is a doozy,” says reviewer Jordan Wagner. “A total of three effects lie within its chassis, and there’s not a weak one in the bunch.” Premier Guitar awarded the Vibro Man a rating of 5.0, the highest possible rating.

“An awful lot of gear comes through here every year and we enjoy playing with all of it,” says Premier Guitar’s editorial director Joe Coffey. “We reserve Premier Gear Awards for the best of the best.”
