The guitar was made by Michael Holstein. He is @likethecow on instagram. He is also a talented multi-instrumentalist.
How about we take the week for folks to catch up and post their takes of the full first 16? Next week we can start with 21-24?
Ahem, you mean The Straits Times, Spook. Even so, they are known to bend to the will of the People's Action Party. Not exactly a disinteresred and fair press where the politics of the island state is...
As an European, US made is as much imports as Made In Asia. There was a time when US guitars were head and shoulders above those of other countries. That time passed, at least when it comes to...

The bass resonant frequency of some loudspeakers is temperature dependent to a degree because of the damping material painted on the cone surround. That might cause some combo tube amps to show a...
They've got both those wrong. Mind you, the maj7#5 and maj7#9 chords exist too but aren't on the list. And it looks like the list was made before b13 was a preferred term. Also, I hadn't seen...
