Just re-listened to Truth. Man, what a great album. Jeff and Rod should have never split, and maybe they wouldn’t have if they called the band “Truth.” All the other masterpieces Jeff did could have...

Took the electronics out of the 89 Emperor only to discover that this underwound 57 Classic has bridge pickup pole spacing (the SKU from Sam Ash has "BG" in it, which leads me to believe there's a...

Thanks! I subscribe to Truefire, (it's superb) but hadn't seen this new course. It's perfect for me especially as I am first a singer and this has tons of useful technique for accompanying vocals and...
