The Worlds Fastest Guitar Player

GuitarMX and a few other sites have had this video up. It is amazing. Even though to me the playing is completely souless, you have to give credit for the technical prowess. in this video the player looks like he is in fast forward.

Would you ever want to play this fast though?

Demeter Fuzzulator Video

I saw this over at GearTrap, one of my new favourite sites. This is a very nice sounding fuzz pedal. I’ve always associated fuzz pedals with over the top crazy tone, but this does some beautiful lower gain tones as well.

Birds Of Tokyo - Universes

Posted by Wookie 5 Jul, 2008 2 Comments

I know this is my “guitar” blog, but if I can introduce some more people to this band then I think I am making the world a better place.

Birds Of Tokyo hail from Perth, Western Australia, and are my favourite band at the moment. Their new album “universes” has just come out today and it is absolutely brilliant. Above is the video for the first two singles (yes, two singles, one video clip). I hope you enjoy.
