Vintage Guitars 2009 Wall Calendar
Written by dreach on September 25, 2008 – 10:56 pm -Amazon has just received some stock of the Vintage Guitars 2009 Wall Calendar
This is a great calendar if you are into vintage guitars or otherwise just liking gazing at cool and innovative guitars. The calendars are created in lovely Halifax, Nova Scotia Canada and in fact many of the images are photographed by a former guitar student of mine.
I have the 2008 calendar and will be using it for a few more months. I actually did not look ahead at all the pictues so that each month I got a nice surprise when I saw the featured guitar. There are some great images. I have the calendar on a wall in my teaching studio so that I can get some inspiration during those occasional, trying lessons.
You can order the Vintage Guitars 2009 Wall Calendar
For you vintage types, I also came across a new DVD entitled Solidbodies, The 50 Year Guitar War
It basically traces the co-development of the Les Paul and the Stratocaster and the age old battle of what’s the best guitar. Kind of like the Rolling Stones / Beatle thing. Have you ever met anyone who liked both bands equally? You’re either into the Stones or you’re a Beatle fan.
There is featured commentary by the great Joe Bonamassa, named Best Blues Guitarist by Guitar Player Magazine’s readership in their 2008 Reader’s Choice Awards. Anyway, if you’ve got a strat or a Les Paul (doesn’t everyone?) then you might want to check this out.
