Wow. This one covers so many categories. You see, you cut up a cheap Japanese electric guitar, and chop the heck out of a Jennings VOX Continental organ, and you get this:

A bit of multi-tasking I'd say!

Nice bass, Steve...

Here's one on a French guy who rolls his own.

Vacuum tubes, that is! Get a cuppa coffee or tea; this one's 17 minutes long.

Awesome! He has a LOT of time on his hands. He even molds his own plastic or phenolic bases. Rich, eccentric, with a lot of time on his hands. I'm impressed! Thanks.

Andy Mckee is someone i stumbled across in Y T.What do you think I like him.Different.Maybe like Erik Mongrain.Hey Paul would you let him do that on the Jazzbo?? Me thinks there would need to be a few more extra coats of clearcoat

[jingle_jangle]

Well, I saw either Andy (with hair) or his twin, at NAMM, demonstrating at one of the boutique acoustic makers' booths.

I was transfixed. It's sort of the same thing that Hendrix did with his Strat and effects--take playing into a whole new realm.

Very cool!

I saw him a few weeks ago here in Lawrence. Not exactly my cup o' tea. And he had more hair, too.

Wow. I thought that was lovely. Thanks for the tip, Scott.

[johnallg]

That was great and he is really good, but Michael Hedges came first, and is one of Andy's influences. RIP Michael.

I always think that these guys make their guitars sound like rain amazing!

And now for something completely different...

A guitar lesson from Snuff Box:

I checked this out about 20 minutes ago. I've been clicking on all of the other "snuff Box" vids. This guy is too much!

[jingle_jangle]

Yeah, I'd post more, but these are not exactly family stuff. The dog kick is priceless, even tho I'm a dog lover. I firmly believe that no animals were harmed, etc.
