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 [...]

1. June 2007

1 Comment

Hehe… I had every intention of summing up last week’s Reader Poll (What’s Your Absolute Dream Guitar?) nice and neatly, but the response was so large, and the list has grown so unwieldy, that I’ll have to let you peruse it yourself.

IK Multimedia’s highly anticipated AmpliTube Jimi Hendrix modeling software finally made it to stores last month, but the big news for me––yep, I’m a bit of a cheapskate––was the release of their free demo, which contains the full working product, and is good for ten days. I don’t know about you, but I like to take [...]

Too cool––Elvis Costello may not be known for his incredible guitar prowess, but the man is right at the top of my short-list for favorite singer/songwriters of all times, and an incredibly gifted performer to boot. Anyway, in an apparent move to promote the long-awaited digital release of Costello’s back catalog (yikes, it took long enough!) [...]
