Ava Luna’s Gear and Creative Process

Band in the Studio: Aye Nako

" We use Fender Deville guitar amps, and used several big muff pedals for recording and live guitar." Say what you will of Pitchfork (we kind of detest their judgmental, patronizing, 'this-is-the-truth-period'' style reviews), but it's commendable that they still manage to highlight albums and artists that are seemingly coming…Click on the title for more
