Hidden Gems | Ian's Top 10 Picks
Hidden Gems #5 | Each week the staff share their personal Hidden Gems from our inventory that they think should be on your radar.
Like my friend and colleague, Steven, my tastes are wide ranging (though his talents are considerably greater). For me, the hidden gems are instrument that catch me up. They defy my expectations and redirect my thinking. Once in hand, or in the signal chain, they open up new paths for deeper exploration of an idea. In the right, quiet moment, they will lead me down a path less traveled.
Some of these I own. Others I wish I owned. All of them occasionally keep me up at night.
