So, in typical GuitArchitecture “last thing first” style, the news page is gone.  It seems to make more sense to just put updates about gigs, recordings, etc. here.  I always forgot about the “news” aspect of the page anyway so (even with about 30 pages of updates and info in the hopper)  it’s not much of an immediate loss.  For those of you who subscribe to the blog, I’ll try to keep the news posts to a minimum.  In the meantime, here are some recent items that may be of interest.

Guest Blogging for Joe Gore’s Tone Fiend

Big thanks to Joe Gore for posting my article (and editing my chicken scratches into something coherent) on the wild string sounds of Vietnam on his great tone fiend blog.  If you want to see some crazy guitars (and some crazier phrasing) you can czech out that post here.

• In other guest posting news, I have a (relatively) new post up on Guitar-Muse.  If you’re looking for a warm-up lick (and some good playing advice) check it out! A cool  interview with Mike Scuffham (of Scuffham Amps/S-gear) is also up here , and you can find all my posts (interviews, lessons, and more) here (it’s 3 pages so just tab through the bottom of the page.

• Books.  I just want to take a moment and thank everyone for their pdf orders (and kind words about the books in general).  It’s simultaneously affirming and humbling at the same time.  So thank you!  If you’ve ordered a hard copy, I still hope to have print editions  by the end of January.  As soon as I get proofed editions – I’ll  get one out to you!

There’s more to come!!

As always, thanks for reading!
