New Videos Posted – Heritage Guitar and a Bass Piano

Posted on Nov 22, 2008 under Vintage guitars for sale | No Comment

I uploaded 2 new videos last night. One is demonstrating a near mint condition Heritage guitar which is like a LP copy. This is an American made guitar manufactured in Kalamazoo Michigan. Heritage was created out if the ashes of the original Gibson guitar company.  These are every bit as good as Gibson’s.

I also posted a video on a Fender Rhodes Bass piano. This thing has such a cool vintage vibe. I don’t play piano, but it’s cool to be able to lay down bass tracks with. Unfortunately it needs a little work which is best left for someone else.

Jimi Hendix drummer Mitch Mitchell passes away

Today I honor and pay my respects to Mitch Mitchell, drummer for Jimi Hendix and part of the Jimi Hendix Experience.

On Wednesday Nov 12th, 2008 Mitch was found dead in a downtown Portland hotel apparently of natural causes. Mitch Mitchell was 61 years old.

Mitch had been playing with the Experience Hendrix tour that just made a stop in Portland at the Schnitz last Friday.

Preceded in death by his former band mates:

Jimi Hendrix, 1970
Noel Redding, 2003

This rock legend will be missed and remembered.

My Very First Video!

Well I finally got in front of a camera – this time to demonstrate a guitar I am selling.

One of my prized Hagstroms will be on the auction block soon. It’s a Hagstrom III from the mid to late 60’s.

You can see me try to play it here:

Many of my other guitars are going on the auction block soon too, so if there is one you’ve had your eye on, let me know.
