Hello to all out there in guitar dominion, this month's
column will I hope reveal some of the great secrets of some of
our favorite guitar players as well as dispel some common
misunderstandings. One of the greatest musicians of the 20th
century was also a damn good guitar player, he stands alone as
a composer, instrumentalist and satirist beyond compare. His name was Frank Zappa. Frank is still IMHO the most
underrated musician in the rock and roll era.

Now, here's a piece of guitar history that proves there's
more than meets the eye, a circa 1967 Cameo 1402T! It wasn't
that long ago that violins were considered the superior cousin
to its distant relative, the guitar. You know: violins equal
classical music equals high class. Guitars equal popular music
equals you dancing fool you! I actually was a guitar teacher
back in the '60s and '70s and that was the attitude back
then.

The Alamo is famous for lots of things. There's the ass
kicking and horrific bloodbath we all had to read about in
school back in the day. There's the present- day tourist trap
where said bloodbath occurred (odd when you think about it,
really. "Here's where 50 men were gunned down with as much
chance as those quail Cheney "hunts". And here's a gift
shop!).

Most of our favourite amps feature EL84, EL34, 6V6 or 6L6
power tubes. Can you tell the difference between them? I'm
certain that many guitar players would say yes. But, is it the
tube that differentiates the tone or the amp design?

I've been earning a living with my guitars now for thirty
odd years. I did a stint as a commercial artist for a couple
of years when I finished high school -- I say commercial
artist, what I mean is I worked in a commercial art studio
learning the ins and outs -- but after a couple of guitar
playing jobs I decided to focus on music as a career. I could
earn more in a couple of nights playing than in a week of the
day job.

I've been meaning to do this for a long time. Every month I
get TONS of photos from people with their guitars. The most
interesting ones always fit into two categories: 1) photos of
people with their earliest guitars and 2) kids with guitars.
It strikes me that they are kind of the same... Us "older"
folks reminiscing of our youth, and us "older" folks seeing
the young kids today finding the same passion we did so many
years ago. So, I want to build a COLLAGE of all that stuff,
right here on the net so all can enjoy it.

I own several of Eastwoods Airline re-issues with those
marvelous chambered bodies but my signiture stage sound over
several decades is the one produced by the strat single coil
pickups. I thought it would be an interesting experiment to
mount 3 strat style pickups into my white Airline deluxe and
see what happened.

I spend a lot of time surfing around the net looking for
information to help me with my business - most of which is
information that can also help you. So each month I'm
sharing what I find "ON THE NET". This month I've found
some tips on improving your study habits on your guitar.
Enjoy!

Does this picture look oddly familiar? Does the SUPRO
DUAL TONE ring a bell? Eastwood Guitars announced this
month their newest model, the AIRLINE TWIN TONE. This
baby sound killer and plays like a dream. And at only
$499, it is destined to become a best-seller for Eastwood
and their AIRLINE brand.
