According to Gibson anyway, here’s a list of popular left-handed guitarists.
Some you’ll know instantly, some you might recognize, some will be a complete mystery. Quite frankly, I don’t know how a certain dead one made it to the list with the description ’superb guitarist.’ Even his fans will tell you he wasn’t.
Also interesting to note […]
Since it’s been a while and since I’m a glutton for punishment and since I don’t often get to go into guitar stores with another lefty for pure entertainment, I managed to get by tonight. I heard all sorts of radio spots and even got a flyer for Guitar Center’s Strat Demo Days. The apparent […]
I did.
Details to follow.
Suffice it to say that it was a well-worn 1958 left-handed Fender Stratocaster. I may never be the same again.
Stay tuned for the report on the Philly Guitar Show. With left-handed picture goodness.
The band, specifically Zeppelin guitarist Jimmy Page, is not comfortable giving gaming companies access to the group’s master recordings — a necessary step in adding the band to any game.
You tell them, Jimmy!
P.S. We’ll keep secret that it was ok for the Cadillac commercials though, ok?
ZZ Top has signed with Rick Rubin’s American Recordings. Their hope is to get back to their roots (La Grange) instead of their ’80s period (Legs).
I haven’t heard happier news in years. Starting with the MTV Revolution, the Top went to hell. They lost their boogie, their soul, their blues. First with the synth nonsense […]
It was the ’70s when I was in school. Serious rock was being produced. Led Zeppelin was arguably the biggest thing going, in spite of various tragedies and spotty output. School kids could spend years debating the relative merits of the Zep vs Yes, for instance.
And then disco. Punk. Grunge. Thrash. Et Cetera.
My contemporaries frequently […]
No I’m not.
I just feel so isolated out here… maybe if I put iphone in the title, I’ll feel more welcome. I’ll fit in better. Then I can start talking up Vista!
Ok, I’ll stop.
Let me think about the top tech acquisitions for the near (and far) future.
Well, some nice soul recently gave me […]
Evan Seinfeld, singer for Biohazard and his new band The Spyderz, and his wife Tera Patrick have developed their adult film production company into one of the leading brands in that industry.
Tera Patrick is married???
And my wife thought she was the only one married to a biohazard…
Electric Guitars: Per Slash’s spec, the Slash Les Paul features a pair of conventional Seymour Duncan Alnico II Pro pickups plus a Fishman Power Bridge unit in the bridge.
plus a semi-hollow body with a plug-in straw to hold your booze!
At $6500, it’s a bit steep. No info on whether it comes lefty or not, but at $6500, who cares?
Moog has always been a niche mfgr. They’re going to stay that way at this price point, even if the guitar plays itself, allowing you to just stand there and look good.
Guitar players are, […]
