31 Reasons Why Stevie Ray Vaughan Sucks?
Have you heard of this Romeo Rose? This is absolutely ABSURD. I remember reading his gear setup over a year ago on MySpace. He looked like a Stevie Ray Vaughan fan as he dresses like him, his gear setup would lead you to believe that he is after the Stevie Ray Vaughan tone, he “plays” [...]

Friday, September 5, 2008
Today i finally took the time to record a quick video of the Dunlop Dallas Arbiter Fuzz Face pedal. I had been up all night (and the previous day) without sleep. I swear I pick the strangest times to do some things. I was tired to the point where I was delirious, but I did [...]

Monday, September 1, 2008
Mark Goffeney is a guitarist who was born with no arms. The first video I saw of him was his street performance of “Drift Away” (by the Doobie Brothers). I was truly inspired by him. It was just him in the middle of the street with his shoes off playing guitar while a crowd eased [...]

Sunday, August 31, 2008
I was introduced to Andy Mckee about 1 year ago by a friend on MySpace. Usually when someone suggests an artist for me to listen to, I’m kinda like “meh” before even checking them out. But I’m really glad I listened to this guy! I’ve been a fan ever since. His instrument of choice is [...]

Thursday, August 28, 2008

Monday, August 25, 2008
I just added a new page here to help people find some chords. It’s a neat little script. The guitar chords chart allows you to select from a drop down list of different keys. I explain on the page how to use this tool. It’s very simple. It displays the structure of 100s of chords [...]

Monday, August 25, 2008
I’m the kind of guy that does not enjoy notes being played at the speed of light all the time. I love slow, melodic and meaningful guitar licks from time to time. So you have to switch it up. Almost anyone can play slow. But do you have what it takes to have a mach [...]
