I want to tell you about the genius that is Steve Lukather. He doesn’t think he’s a genius, and he doesn’t even really thing he compares with what most of us would consider a “guitar hero”. He’s a pretty sensitive guy, although if...

There’s not much more classic than an Epiphone Casino Guitar. You’ll probably immediately think of the Beatles. You’ll love the light weight and comfortable neck of the Epiphone Elitist 1965 Casino. The Elite series are instruments that approach...

Let’s get right to it. The Boss Super Chorus is $109 and the Caline Super Chorus is $22. About the only additional thing the Boss version has are EQ and EQ level controls (and a stereo jack). If you want a great chorus pedal and don’t want to spend much...

Holy crap – this guy is playing the hugest flying V guitar I’ve ever seen! I don’t think he’s really gonna be shredding on this thing. You’d think that it would be hard enough to make chords! Watch this guy try to play lead – it...
