Justin Duhaime


 Just now attended a concert by Justin and two other fine musicians playing mainly the music by and/or inspired by Django Reinhardt. Nothing better than a street concert by fine musicians. Life in Cumberland is good!!

The VIP Room


 You may find it necessary to strain your eyes a little to see the guitars, but for certain there are guitars in this artwork, one even being played by Hendrix no less. For sure a great scene and a great addition to any guitar blog!!

Ray Wylie Hubbard

What do you love about Ray? Starting at the top, you've gotta love the hat!! You get up in the morning and don't do anything to the hair--what you see is what you get!! Shave?? Why?? Put on a scarf. You gotta keep the neck and the vocal chords warm!! And then get you a J-45. Anything else is a substitute. Now put on Ray's latest record and you're in business!! Love you Man!! Never come off the road!!

Gibson Southern Jumbo


Here we are in August already. I took my SJ to the cottage last week and put brand new strings on it!! This one is selling for $9, 341 or so. I might part with mine for ten grand, but I'd have to think about it. She sang pretty with the new strings--if only I could change them every time out!!
