Guitar Snobs, Eat Your Hearts Out

[KingCrimson]

This kept me busy for a few hours today..Think Bike Snob but with guitars and testosterone. Basically the guy is pushing his own ****, but plays it off as if he's trying to do the right thing for you, yet he makes several ironic comments about car salesmen. It's great!

And made me feel extra good about my San Diego made Carvin. EDIT: No wait, corporate bastards at Carvin with their CNC machines making guitars all consistently and what not. I really got ripped off.

Man that site gets better and better!

Thanks for reminding me of The Shadows. They have been around for fifty years. Hank Marvin just doesn't seem to age.

check out Ben Woolman and American Fingerstyle guitar. I stumbled onto him performing at a little resort near Lutsen, Minnesota (talk about remote, out of the way) one bitter winter night. My gf (now wife) and I chatted with him a bit and bought a couple CDs which we listen to all the time. Look for Ben's composition NOVELLA.
