This guy makes guitars our of shovels. American shovels. In America.

And he plays them very well. I like his percussive approach to guitar playing.

Oh, and he sells them too.

I'm surprised that worked as well as it did. He even sharpied on a fret board! It has a very grimy sound, and I mean that in a good way.

On closer inspection, I see his shovels are made in Mexico. Still America, from our neighbors to the South.

I'm good with that. Commerce, trade and all that.

I am feeling the urge to make a shovel guitar myself, and relearn how to play. It looks like fun, and I like to do things that are fun. I'll have to swing by the shovel section the next time I'm in my local small town hardware store.

Funny, it never occurred to me there would be Soviet musical instruments. Are their guitars good? Like American, Gibson, Martin good? 

Very industrial and not so good. Strange looking and influenced by the unusual guitars from Japan in the 60's.  I have a few of the Japanese guitars and like them a lot. 

 

 

I'm a bass player, and the Soviet era basses are pretty comparable to cars like the Yugo. They might run, but using them for their intended purpose isn't rewarding. 

 

These days I can't watch Joe without seeing John Belushi.

On the SNL train...

 

Oh why aren't things funny anymore? I'm growing old...

 

 

Saturday and Racer isn't spending it at The Big Shed drillin' and fillin'.

 

It's the Golden Age.
