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.

This one is almost identical in construction to the Danelectro-style - masonite over chambered plywood body, masonite pickguard. The neck is purpleheart over maple, with plastic fret lines. The soundhole merely serves as a pickup mount, and the pickup was just insurance against never getting the intended piezo system to work. Eventually, I did get it to work, the piezo is incorporated in a modified bridge, and sounds great. 30" scale.
