Finally, a seven-string I can see the point of. This makes more sense than a double-neck. This guy has a lot of very entertaining videos and he's a hell of a player.



I actually had this album, what a blast from the past!

Who remembers the Monkees? When I was a little kid, this show was in syndication every day after school. I loved the slapstick. At the end of every episode was a music video that I didn't really appreciate then. Here is the intro to the show:


Hurrian Hymn No. 6

The oldest known melody - circa 1400 B.C. That drone note starts to drill into your head after a while.


I make no excuses or apologies.

still love this bass line


What is that skinny white guy doing in Bruno Mars' video?

He's not doing it here, but Bruno Mars can play pretty much any instrument you throw at him. He's like an even-smaller version of Prince.




Did I just ruin ze mood again?

Another weird music video for you. They had a cool website with lots of great stuff, but alas it's gone now, replaced by stupid Facebook. I despise Facebook, I can't wait for the day when they go the way of MySpace.

#1. Single-tier guitar rack

The smaller single-tier guitar racks (above) were a modification of a standard sort of stackable little bookshelf that I have built quite a few of. The larger two-tier racks (below) were based on a similar sort of construction. Unfortunately, I never saved any plans for these things, in fact I never had more than rough sketches to start with, and improvised the rest. Once I worked-out all the dimensions and details for the first one, I just copied it. These racks are now a decade old, and have stood up to humid summers and dry winters perfectly. Nothing has pulled-apart or cracked.
