As a vinyl nerd who has moved to become more of an appreciator than an acquirer I especially enjoy these pro customs for the upcoming Munnyworld show in NYC. There is something about Huck Gee’s work that I really, really enjoy. It’s probably the knuckle tattoos. Awesome. Sket-One also does insane custom work. This is [...]

Don’t sleep on that Amanda Blank while you’re enjoying the British guitars, though. [...]

Pal of SaM Luke Worley has these for sale in his new Store. I think we all benefit when there is more octopus-with-nunchaku in our lives.

I acknowledge that I am, to the core, a complete Jack White fanboy. That said, I think this is a great example of how he shreds the blues. It’s from “It Might Get Loud” which I need to see. Not want. Need. And if you’re into it you can buy the 7″ of the above [...]
