Electro-Harmonix Stereo Electric Mistress
What are these guys on? I love companies that don't take themselves too seriously. Electro-Harmonix is one of them. The demonstrate the new Electro-Harmonix Stereo Electric Mistress they have concocted another bizarre video. Check it out.
I need to get me some of them LED rings. They are very cool. The pedal sounds very cool too. I still find it hard to go past my trusty MXR Phase 90 re-issue though.
Diesel Instructional DVD

Filed under Bands / Musicians, Videos
Diesel has always been one of my favourite guitarists. Even back in the "Injectors" days, I found myself rocking out to the blues rock styling of the man in question. So the news that he was bringing out an instructional DVD had me salivating profusely. Diesel is without a doubt one of the most underrated guitarists/singers in the world today. His solo performances are something not to be missed.
Diesel is currently touring around Australia with the following dates.

Happy Halloween
What!?!?! You thought I'd leave you hanging? Here we go with some Halloween flavoured guitar goodness courtesy of YouTube. First up, Mr Scary George Lynch. I don't know what is scarier, the paying or the fashion.
And how can we have Halloween without Helloween!!??! I had no idea these guys were still releasing new music. Awesome. this track is a suitabl clip (in a cheesey way) for the occasion. Wait for the dual guitar solo.
YouTube Shreds
Surely if you play guitar you have seen these by now. StSanders Has taken classic guitar footage from our favourite guitar idols and over dubbed the audio. yeah it sounds lame but the skill he has used in making these is great. You would honestly think you were hearing these masters having a really, REALLY bad night.
Although the EVH video is gold, I can't go past Slash and the talk box. Check these out and know that You tube is good.
