| Greetings!
Last month was a little light on the article submissions,
so I'm entering my own article for November, Even
Better Than the Real Thing. I wrote this about 5 years ago
but it is still valid today. In fact, it was the original spark that started EASTWOOD Guitars. I hope you
enjoy it... However, WE NEED MORE STORIES, keep them
coming! We will give away a FREE guitar to one of the
newsletter writers every 6 months, so get your article in TODAY to have a chance at winning!
Check out the wild and wacky DOMINO story from Michael
Wright, The
Different Strummer. Another great educational spot from Kirk
Lorange on Capos and Transposing and tour info for METRIC and STARS.
As always your input and comments are welcome. Enjoy the
Guitarticles! Mike Robinson

For the past few years I had been looking for a really nice
Mosrite Ventures Model Vintage guitar. Prices ranged from
$1,500 to $4,000 depending on the year and the condition. Last
year an angel descended on EBAY with 35 NOS Mosrite guitars
that were built in 1987. These guitars were all brand new and
were never sold. They were stored in a warehouse for 14 years.
Unbelievable! They were auctioned off one by one, week after
week, until they were all gone. I bought the 13th one that
sold. I was not disappointed.

And we'll have fun, fun, fun 'till daddy takes the T- bird
away. The beach. The sun. California has flirted with national
popularity ever since the Gold Rush. And when filmmakers
discovered the endless summer of Hollywood, its ascent to
national dominance as a symbol became assured. But it really
wasn't until the 1960s that California became the center of
the youth-culture universe.

The tuning and design of the guitar is such that some keys
and their related chords are much easier to get around than
others. I call these the "guitar- friendly" keys. They use
more open chords than barre, and so are much easier to get
flowing musically than trying to track of and perform a series
of barre chords. The key with the least number of barre chords
is C, with F being the only non-open chord, so I guess it's
the easiest for a beginner; E, A, D and G are the next in rank
of easiness as they also consist mostly of open chords; B and
F are getting trickier to keep track of and play with ease,
and the sharp/flat keys - - forget it! Even after 42 years of
playing, I don't bother even trying.
