PRS McCarty Korina






PRS







McCARTY KORINA w/ BRAZILIAN FINGERBOARD







This guitar just screams!!! We have had this guitar in for about one month, but I have never really played it. I have just enjoyed the pure beauty of it but....I made the mistake the other day of playing this guitar. Well it definitely wasn't a mistake to play other than I want to own the guitar!

This guitar has got tons of pure thick lows, rich round mid's and screaming highs backed up with loads of sustain. The pickups are clean and defined just what you want when you turn up the gain or turn the treble down and comp out some cool jazz lines. This guitar just does every style well, rock, jazz, country, etc.. I just couldn't put this guitar down, it's the kind of guitar that just inspires you to play.

On top of all the sweet sounds that come out of this machine is the way it looks. It's beautiful - clean smooth lines and the only mother of pearl or abalone are the bird inlays on the fingerboard, which by the way is made of Brazilian rosewood... ohhhh yayyyy Brazilian how sweet it is!!! The first 300 hundred of this model came out with the Brazilian boards on them - the standard fingerboard is regular east Indian rosewood.
Anyway if you live close to the Maryland area and want to check it out come on down you wont be disappointed.

Just a couple pictures of the headstock front and back so you can see the SN#

Best new Tab book




GUITAR HERO!!!




Seems like everyone is into Guitar Hero these days, which is a good thing. That might sound like an odd thing for a guitar player to say but lets look at it from this perspective.



  1. There is some pretty cool music on the game
  2. Hand - Eye coordination
  3. Timing i.e. playing along with the beat
  4. Practice - hours and hours of repetition


These are all things that you have to work on while learning to play guitar.

Now if someone was really enjoying the game and wanted to actually give playing guitar a shot, what would they do? If you are a guitar player you know that playing the guitar is alot of work and practice, and some of the songs on the game are actually kinda hard to play(there are also some very great easy songs). So what would you do?

Buy a beginner book? Take some lessons? Both would be great to get yourself going and the lessons could keep you going even further. But you really want to learn how to play those songs in the book, well one of the book manufacturers got smart and made the Guitar Hero book (Hal Leonard#HL 00690917).

Even if you have never played the game or care to play it, this book has a ton of great/classic guitar songs. So check it out!

Cool PRS SE C6R

PRS SE C6R guitar is just Cool!



Only 100 of these guitars were made for distribution in the US, we were lucky enough to get two of them. If you haven't played a PRS SE I would suggest you make your way down and check it out. Great playing guitar - smooth fret edges, humbuckers with clarity, mahogany body and a mahogany set neck with rosewood fingerboard. The Skull body graphic is just mean looking and a sweet fingerboard inlay round this piece out. All the PRS quality for an affordable price wraped up with a heavy gig-bag.
