Otis Rush...so sad, such a loss! Ever since I first heard The Bluesbreakers cover it in 1967, "All your Lovin" has been my favorite Chicago Blues tune. Later I was blown away by the original Cobra recording. Otis' genius created melody, amazing changes, lyrics with a raw, controlled voice...

Check this out, mates...Ian Moore creating some great power pop with a surprising partscaster...Strat body and Esquire neck (i.e. a pre-Tele Esquire)... Hey guitar techs, how they do dat, eh?

Anyone ever notice Blur's reference to Buffalo...I believe it's Graham Coxon wearing our Buffalo, New York sweatshirt with the Bison logo in this video...

Pretty good up to 2:56...

Jopn, that looks like great work...congratulations. It's got all the ratrod beauty one could want. I hope those pups work for you because they really add to the visual vibe.

From the MY LES PAUL FORUM: The guitar played by Kurt Cobain on the Unplugged in New York album and also supposedly the last guitar he played before he killed himself was lost in a divorce settlement by his daughter Francis Bean. That's pretty crappy. Her ex claims she gave him the guitar as a gift....

Thanks Thom, Concretebadger, dezb1, Robroe, Nick for the suggestions and info.

Slainte,

I'm helping my god-son select a new amp to meet these criteria. Any suggestions? -enough volume for jams or small gigs with drummer, bass, vocals -playing mostly classic rock, blues rock. ideally a good dirty tone but also a nice clean to use with pedals. -must have FX loop for pedals i already own ...

Sadly, Pops Staples' daughter, Yvonne, passed. As you may well-know, The Staples Singers were a major Rock-Gospel force in the 1960s civil rights movement.

Yesss! I'm wet.

I'll have another butchers in a couple days. I think it said Peavey on it but not 100% But we do know whoever put it on there is a cunt. Refinished. Modified. Forget the year it was made. It has no real vintage value left in it. It's an old, well-made student guitar. with one neck pickup...Maybe 30...

Here is link from Taylor Guitar's website. http://www.taylorguitars.com/guitars/acoustic/features/woods I know this for acoustics, but it helps explain where each wood sits in terms of tone and frequency ranges. There are differences in solid electric guitar tones, but as stated there are so many f...

Mkt3000, yer a good one. Makin the world better.

Thanks for the advice you all. It's ana amazing guitar. I just ordered myself a 50's styled bridge pickup from a local winder and I talked to the guys at Staytrem and new 9,5" non tilting bridges that fit tuneomatic thimbles will be shipping from the 31st of January, so that would be all the t...

hey, guys I've been looking to buy a Jazzmaster and inside my price range there are only two that i like. The J Mascis and the Vintage Modified in sonic blue. Which one would you recommend? Honestly I can't stand the clearcoated neck on the VM, but I am mainly asking about the quality. Most J Masci...

Wouldn't even trust the neck pocket construction as a platform; no...

At Moollon we picked one up ahead of time to use at NAMM and have since given it loads of annual mileage since then. Like other little combos, the Special 6 is quite practical in a loud showroom like NAMM when you need a smallish semi-directional box that can point at someone sitting down, all whil...

I bought one of the new Shell Pink Mustangs intending to swap necks with my Capri Orange Duo-Sonic so that I would have a Shell Pink Mustang with a Maple fretboard and spaghetti logo but I love this Pao Ferro fretboard so much I'm having second thoughts about any permanent change. I'll probably do ...
