Seriously ironic and seriously cool. Check out the sale of punk and rock memorabilia at Christie’s – the famed auction house. Everything from Kurt Cobain’s very first guitar Continue reading
One of the great things about living in Lawrence is that between Lawrence and Kansas City there really isn’t any music show you can’t see. Now that we have the brand new Sprint Center, big name acts are coming into town all the time.
Last week I say Coldplay, and it was everything you want a big show like that to be. The production was Continue reading

The new Line 6 LD15 bass practice amp is an affordable, yet tonally powerful practice amp for bass players who want professional tone…even during practice. It includes three effects (Filter, Octave, Chorus) that you can utilize one at a time, and a myriad of compatible ins and outs which allow for not only headphone usage, but an auxiliary 1/8″ line in for simultaneous CD or mp3 player usage. A must have for beginners, I believe the LD15 is going to take the entry-level bass amp world by storm, just as it’s guitar predecessor has in recent years.

Probably more of you than would admit to it. Trying to achieve that sound is easy, if you want to go deaf… Most of us (excluding people with their own theater) have limits on how loud they can play. That’s why Fernandez patented a pickup system that will achieve feedback and sustain at any volume level with the flick of a switch.
Our customer came in with his trusty Ibanez RG and the Sustainer Kit. Easy as 123…drop it in and infinite sustain… well, not exactly. Here is what I had to do to make this customer’s dreams of guitar domination a reality.
