This has probably been posted, but I looked for it, and didn't see it, so here it is just in case... I thought this was an interesting video, and had a good time watching it...

There are a couple of kids in our church that have been asking me about learning to play the guitar. One's a smallish 13 year old and one is a bigger 12 year old... so both about the same size I guess. I learned on a horrible Stella guitar. I have no idea if Stella makes a good guitar or not...

Stuart Day, acclaimed luthier from New Galilee, PA, reviews the Guild Aristocrat HH (Trans Black) Spoiler alert -- he likes it, saying "This is a great guitar, man, for the price point I don't think you're going to find a better fit and finish, to be honest..." And, yes, this is my...

So this was a fun discovery! Up in my Youtube feed pops this review by Stuart Day: This is my "signature" Savoy 150A -- why do I call it that? Check out the B-Roll at 1:50, and pay attention to the 12th fret -- that's my signature there on the Mother of Pearl inlay! Why would I do such a...

Wife and dog have asked that I continue this practice, post lock down....

This may have been mentioned before... But in a recent interview that came through my news feed Steve Vai talks of how he loves Unique guitars. From the article: ... Anyone know what guitar that is? Just curious...

I'd like to intonate the new Aristocrat I got in, but the strings come up from the Guild harp tailpiece through the tunomatic... and the strings then cause interference when trying to get a flat-edge screwdriver into the screw at the base of the tunomatic to change intonation. Is there a trick...

I hope to post some pics (I didn't see how to do that from the mobile site?) and a mini review. It's not perfect, but this ones a keeper...

Holy crap! There are guys on here who are going to live forever...

I have a friend who is looking at a Corona D25, with a serial number of CPM00004. Anyone have any thoughts? Supposedly its been sitting in a case for 10 years. Barely used. You know "Only played by a little old lady in church once a week" kind of thing. Is the "C" in the serial designating...

I know there were only 3 of these actually made (or so I read...) But was this based on a production design and tweaked? Or completely designed from the ground up for Merle? (Pete Townsend shown for scale)

I apologize if this was discussed. I looked for it and didn't see it. Lock thread if its old. Believe it or not, this actually showed up in my Facebook feed. (IDK whether to be upset that they are getting that much better, or impressed...) Cordoba (GUILD) voted Best in Show as reported in...

IDK if this was posted yet, but just showed in my Facebook feed: Doyle Dykes Guitar Player Feature

Recently this came up in my news feed. Column written by a woman in GQ magazine, imploring guys to "Never Play Acoustic Guitar for a Woman." (I thought it was pretty funny and well written, at the the very least...) Whadaya all think? True in your experience?

If you are on Facebook, you can catch the recording at: Doyle Dykes Live A few highlights I remember: Yes, he has officially signed with Guild (but we knew that.) Quote: "I am so happy to be back with Guild. It has always been such a huge part of my life. I had nothing to do with leaving...

So, a friend of mine discovered this beauty in a small mom and pop guitar shop not too terribly far from me. 1960 Freshman. Allegedly mint condition. Guy wants $1300 for it which seems like a fair price. Not a steal, but I see them on sale for $1500+ on reverb. Does anyone have the original...

Most of you have no doubt seen this before, but it was the first time I had read it. FWIW.

I noticed that both Sweetware and Guitar Center list it as discontinued. Strangely, though, Guild's website seems to indicate only the Golden version is discontinued. And Musician's friend still lists it for sale. Just wondering....

For those of you who don't do facebook... Doyle is in Austin working on his new album. He posted some pictures. Check out the 4 guitars he's using for the album... The million dollar question is: If he were stranded on a desert island and could only take 3 guitars... which one would be...

My question goes to playability, not tone. I read GAD's reviews of both. On the NS Bluesbird, he mentions: Unfortunately, my left hand is very picky about the neck it lets me play. I had to take back a Martin with a performance V-Neck, and the MIM 1 3/4" archos I have is unplayable by me...
