Eddie Van Halen get's his new Fender "Wolfgang" guitar ready for the road...

 

Jan. 30, 2009:
After years of wearing down metal frets and having pieces of his guitar rip off or malfunction during shows, Van Halen says he's built a guitar that even he can't destroy. On the Wolfgang, frets are fashioned of stainless steel, and metal gadgets are custom-made by a company that specializes in medical tools. Sections of wood are left unpainted so the instrument can breathe and age -- "like a Stradivarius," the 54-year-old musician explains with a degree of pride....

Greg Lowe Guitar and Bass Sessions CD... Greg has another fine CD release

featuring music of guitar and bass compositions. This CD is available on-line from Greg's web-site. www.greglowe.com

 

Review...

GUITARIST Lowe turns his jazzy touch to a disparate bunch of tunes from the pens of Roger Miller (King of the Road) to Carole King (I Feel the Earth Move) to George Harrison (Something) and four of his own compositions. He performs seven tunes with bassist Steve Kirby; the other six with Gilles Fournier and the guitarist is at his deft-fingered best, especially on Willie Nelson's Crazy, where he pulls the Lenny Breau feat of making a country classic sound oh, so un-country. Lowe sounds great with just the bass accompaniment; it's a rare chance to hear the intricacies of his playing.   ~ Chris Smith - Winnipeg Free Press
