Never knew that I was an uncertified plectrum extractor technician....

Sometimes we get to do a very special project. We were commissioned to bring a totally broken guitar back to life, and have it adorned with a portrait of their late father/grand father. The guitar has been restored and the portrait has now been completed. A huge shout out to JBo Airbrush for the amazing artwork. The family is going to be taken back.

Edmonton app Frettable transcribes live sound into sheet music | CBC News
cbc.ca
The Edmonton man who created an app that transcribes the sound of an instrument into sheet music hopes it reduces geographic barriers for composers.
I was in a band with Greg for a short period when he was at U of A, I remember him talking about it at the time. Glad to see it came together for him!
“Sheet music” better mean frikkin tabs! Also, “sheet music” is what I am accused of making by the italian grandmothers league...
Soon we’ll have an app to wipe our asses for us.
I think this is brilliant! Great tool for collaborating/creating, especially those moments of noodling and that great riff happens. ;) To capture and to create

Yeah...Whammy no Whammy, Whammy no Whammy...No whammy.
Bigsby on a tele is an automatic disqualification.

Gibson Les Paul Traditional 2018 now with pre-cracked headstocks! - gearnews.com
gearnews.com
Gibson has done it yet again and put another damaged guitar up on its own website.
Wow... they've really sunk to a new low, who would pay that much in the first place? There are so many better choices these days. Not the same guitar, but a PRS singlecut away kicks the snot out of a Les Paul any day of the week, and their QC is far superior. Also, the Heritage, built out of the old Gibson Factory, far superior. I've seen Custom Shop Les Paul's with dust in the paint. Junk.
3 of the pillars of music. Which one is your tool of choice?
That fender got out pointied by those Gibsons! I still think they should have made 10's of millions of these "Modernes"! Then EVERYBODY could own a classic Gibson!
