How has no one figured out that covering Hendrix is a no-no unless you are really loving good.

This is the only successful Hendrix Cover to date: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9KI9eJs9JTc

to her credit her slide playing is pretty good but it can't overcome mediocre vocals, an uninspired arrangement, and the drum section

Two Um Jammer Lammy guitars that are semi-relevant. The first can have the 'pawn shop special' appeal to mostly videogame dorks (of which I'll admit I am). But the second one is cool as all hell, I want it so bad.

if you are going to do a theme guitar, why not do a guitar-themed guitar? A guitar with pictures of guitars all over it? Because guitars are cool, right? And one of those pictures of guitars could be a picture of the guitar-themed guitar. Whoa.

He did use Washburn for several years after Dean went out of business and only went back to Dean shortly before he got shot. They had several official signature Dime guitars, I never got to play one but was told that they were really well built and played great for their price point.

I bought one several years ago because it was cheap, honestly just for wall decoration more than to play, but I can say that it does feel good to play, and I have several guitar playing friends who are more experienced than me who have all complimented it and tend to pull it off the wall over other guitars in my collection that are considered better instruments. One main downside is that it's kinda heavy and tends to neck dive without a decent strap.

I can also say that the one pictured is likely a knockoff, because as I said in a previous post, the text is completely wrong.

Yeah I've only played with one a bit but I loved it. I love that you can isolate the fuzz or the octave effect.

Finished populating the board but I can't do any wiring or testing because the parts I'm waiting for is more wire (my cat ruined the small bit of stranded wire I had left) and more power plugs.

Does anyone have songwriting tips? Most of my musical life has been noodling around, playing dumb songs, or learning new and weird chord voicings. But while loving around I stumbled across a chord progression I love, and I need to write a song around it.

gently caress, Isbell (and his former band Drive-By Truckers, though he hasn't been a member for over half a decade) owns. Listen to the new Drive-By Truckers album, by the way, probably the best they've put out since The Dirty South.
