My soon-to-be latest adventures in GPS and dashcam tech with a little rectangle thingy.

This is definitely a model of Stratocaster you don't see come around very often.

Sometimes timing is everything.

If you don't like the sound of your stock presets on your modeling amp or multi-effects pedal, you have nobody to blame but yourself.

Over the past weekend I let go of a few things, and picked up 1 thing.

If you're going to get one of these, the joke only works pretty much once.

My guitar playing journey has led me to the Telecaster, and it's been an interesting trip.

This is never, repeat, never a good idea. You have alternatives.

Taking a small break from the guitar stuff. Sometimes I read Amazon reviews for GPSes just for the laughs.

XLR has been around a long time, but can't be used on regular electric guitars.

My playing improved significantly when I learned not to bang strings hard.

Buying used is always a risk. Buying any guitar over 5 years old is also a risk. But if you're willing to take the plunge, certain mid-2000s Fender Strats are dirt cheap right now.

You didn't have the option of getting guitars like this for so cheap a few years back, but now you can.
