hurricane hugo Posted March 27, 2014 Author Share Posted March 27, 2014 What amazes me is not so much that such a quantity of, uh, stuff, exists all in one collection, but that so much of it is already sold. oh, there's at least half a dozen that I'd love to own. <3 Quote http://blip.fm/invite/WorkRelease Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Larryz Posted April 7, 2014 Share Posted April 7, 2014 Come on baby, let's do the twist! I guess there's no point in luthiers looking down the neck anymore...I can see the concept of lowering pressure on the wrists...it's a rock and roller!

Dannyalcatraz Posted May 3, 2014 Share Posted May 3, 2014 18-string guitar? [video:youtube] Nice video. I wish they had included some contact info, though- you know how many "Smith" guitar companies there are out there? And if you search for "Ralph Smith" guitars, it's all about the original guy, not his family trying to follow in his footsteps. Quote Sturgeon's 2nd Law, a.k.a.

hurricane hugo Posted May 3, 2014 Author Share Posted May 3, 2014 I think they should partner with/license to RainSong. Graphite would be the ideal solution. Quote http://blip.fm/invite/WorkRelease Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Larryz Posted May 3, 2014 Share Posted May 3, 2014 Cool video and nice looking guitars. I love the cutaway design and the thumb slide route on the back of the neck! I really liked the part where they have to do "reverse engineering" to figure out what some of the old man Smith's tools were used for...

hurricane hugo Posted May 17, 2014 Author Share Posted May 17, 2014 You know, I've never cared how practical a 12-string bass is, I've always adored the sound. This Dommenget one is gorgeous...well to my eyes, at least. First Les Paul-style anything I've liked in a long time. http://www.guitarmaker.de/Images/BASSbolle1100.jpg Quote http://blip.fm/invite/WorkRelease Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dannyalcatraz Posted May 17, 2014 Share Posted May 17, 2014 What surprises me is not the 12-stringiness of it, but the fact that it has a whammy bar! Quote Sturgeon's 2nd Law, a.k.a.

Larryz Posted October 28, 2014 Share Posted October 28, 2014 Hope no one stomps that tube accidently out of socket...I think it's made for lighting up the pedal board with a soft glow IOW For Artistic Looks or a prop for playing Air Guitar! still kind of cool though...
