Street Performer Shreds on an Acoustic [VIDEO]

Tony LaBrie — Thu, 07 Feb 2013 14:54:20 +0000

A dude with skills like this should not be performing on the streets, this guy should be on stage. Then again, he probably makes more money on the street than he would if he joined a band and tried to go that route. Shred on my good man!

11-year-old girls are usually good at being dramatic, acting like they know everything and that’s about it. This girl is an exception though, as she absolutely shreds on the guitar.

50 Great Guitar Licks From The Early 90′s

Chris Monroe — Tue, 10 Apr 2012 14:31:01 +0000

Not bad for one guy with one guitar. Although the use of a pedal or two wouldn’t have hurt. He definitely tried to cover all the bases but it’s hard to cover all the songs from the early 90′s in five minutes. What songs did he miss that you think should be in there?

Guitarist Fails At Swinging His Guitar

Chris Monroe — Mon, 23 Jan 2012 19:19:17 +0000

This is what happens when you showboat in front of 10's and 10's of people. It was his big moment to swing that guitar around his head and he blows it. What makes it worse is that you know he has been practicing that since he was six years old. I think the look on his face after was great, followed by his walk of shame back to the guitar rack to grab another one. Enjoy.

The Rock Ock 8 Necked Guitar

Fantone — Wed, 07 Dec 2011 02:05:51 +0000

I don’t know about you, but 1 guitar neck just doesn’t seem to be enough for me. I’m a two or three neck minimum kinda guy. These 8 dudes take it a step further and pretty much gang bang this 8 necked guitar. Okay, so the song isn’t exactly metal, but if you appreciate guitars, [...]

Guitarist Smashes Guitar and Walks Off During Performance

Chris Monroe — Wed, 16 Nov 2011 15:35:11 +0000

This is the best local band footage I have ever seen. This 80′s cover band was just about to blow up the stage with some Bon Jovi and the guitarist had enough. It’s a good thing that there was only 7 people in the crowd because that could have started a riot. I wonder how [...]

Machine Makes Titanium Guitar

Fantone — Wed, 13 Jul 2011 23:45:51 +0000

I guess CNC machines can make pretty much anything and they play a big part in manufacturing of a lot of goods, but this is the first time I’ve ever seen one. Watch it turn a block of titanium into a guitar. The guitar isn’t playable, but that isn’t the point. It’s pretty bad [...]
