Your Chance To Win A Gibson SG-3 With Three Singlecoils

5. July 2007

Well, I hope everyone here in the States had a great day of BBQ & fireworks yesterday, and for those of you around the world who don’t celebrate America’s Independence Day, well… I hope you had a lovely Wednesday just the same. To ease ya’all back into the short work week I just thought I’d [...]

Vintage Guitar Magazine Reviews Eastwood’s Airline H44 DLX

3. July 2007

0 Comments

If my memory serves me correctly, Eastwood first introduced their Airline H44 back in January of this year (at Winter NAMM 2007,) as an inexpensive, updated & upgraded remake of the classic Harmony H44 Stratotone––a funky little slide guitar from the ’50s, with a neck the size of a small tree trunk, and some seriously [...]

Speed Linking: Gibson’s Guitar Of The Week #23, Epi Les Paul Ultra Giveaway…

26. June 2007

3 Comments

Gibson released Guitar Of The Week #23 this morning, but the instrument––a standard Les Paul Money Bass in Natural Satin––was so yawn-inducing I didn’t think you’d want to read a whole post about it. Anyways, for the sake of the Guitar Of The Week Index I thought I’d better at least provide a link. Now [...]

If you’ve been drooling over a PRS guitar but don’t exactly have the pocket change to drop on one of their top-of-the-line instruments, you might want to take a look at the company’s less-expensive import models. Import models? Yep, the PRS SE Series was apparently created at the urging of Carlos Santana, in the hopes [...]

Guitar Player Puts Four Looping Pedals Through Their Paces

There’s a great in-depth comparison and review of four different looping pedals over at Guitar Player right now, and reading through it made me realize just how far the whole technology of looping has come since I first messed around with it in a very primitive form nearly two decades ago. The pedals covered here [...]

Video Demos From The Big Boys… What’s Taking So Long?

18. June 2007

For the last few weeks I’ve been watching Paul Reed Smith Guitars (PRS) add high-quality video demos to their various guitar product pages, and it got me thinking––what the heck’s taken so long? Smaller guitar/gear manufacturers like Eastwood and Headstrong have managed to create significant buzz around their new products by fully leveraging the power [...]

Speed Linking: Fender’s Obnoxious New Site, Budda’s Superdrive 45, Reverend Manta Ray

14. June 2007

9 Comments

Uggh, Fender re-designed their site last weekend, and IMHO it’s a major step backwards––while their old look was classy, clean, and full of vintage vibe, the current re-design looks like it’s pretty much aimed at the teenage ADD crowd. Note to Fender: websites that blast loud music at you without giving you time to turn [...]

Great Guitar Jam Tracks… I’ll Show You Mine If You’ll Show Me Yours

6. June 2007

I don’t know about you, but being a full-time wage slave, husband, blogger, cancer caregiver, and general all-around nice guy, I don’t get time to jam with my friends nearly as often as I’d like––I do, however, find time as often as possible to sneak into the back room for some quality time with one [...]
