		<title>The On-Going Evolution of a Telecaster</title>
		<description><![CDATA[When I first put together this pine bodied Tele, I told myself that I wasn&#8217;t going to modify it. That lasted about  three years. I stuck a Bigsby B-16  on it a few months ago. Last week I went all out and cut down the B-16 and stuck two of my new pickups on it. [...]]]></description>

		<title>Monthly Motivation-Chet Atkins</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I was recently talking to a friend about guitar playing and motivation to practice (it seemed like he had a hard time staying motivated).  I’ve always liked to practice, and have been easily motivated to play my guitar for hours. I told him that when I heard a solo  that really moved me, I had [...]]]></description>

		<title>Pre-Production Pickups Available</title>
		<description><![CDATA[After many months of testing, I finally have a limited quantity, small batch of Pickups available for sale. The Blade Pickup is $340. USD plus shipping, and the adjustable Pole Piece Pickup is $325. USD plus shipping.  I&#8217;m really happy with the way they sound. The Blade Pickup sounds very similar to a Charlie Christian [...]]]></description>

		<title>The Miraculous Story of My &#8220;53&#8243; Buick</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I am finally taking the time to share the story of how I found my grandfather’s 53 Buick Riviera at a swap meet. Even twelve years later, it’s still hard for me to believe. The Buick is not just a car to me, its part of my family history, so I’ll begin by sharing a [...]]]></description>

		<title>&#8220;Summertone&#8221; Amp Cabinet</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I recently picked up a copy of Ashley Kingman&#8216;s new EP, Guitar Blasters Vol. 1. It had a great photo of a well used amp cabinet that I built 20+ years ago. I originally made two cabinets, one for myself and the other for Lee Jeffriess. Lee didn&#8217;t end up using it so it landed in Ashley&#8217;s [...]]]></description>

		<title>George Barnes</title>
		<description><![CDATA[It’s always a surprise to me when I mention guitarist/arranger George Barnes and people don&#8217;t know who he is, especially if it&#8217;s a guitar player! Mr. Barnes was playing an electric guitar even before the great Charlie Christian. He is by far my favorite player of all time. I remember the first time I heard [...]]]></description>

		<title>Custom Fabrication</title>
		<description><![CDATA[For the past three plus years, TK has been custom fabricating various projects for artist Andrea Zittel at A-Z West. Sometimes we get so wrapped up in the work that we don&#8217;t take the time to get good photos. AZ recently gave us some great photos taken by photographer Jessica Eckert for the Andrea Rosen [...]]]></description>

		<title>The Elrod House Tour</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Even though we&#8217;ve posted allot of info about guitars and guitar equipment recently, we still make our living from design and fabrication. TK and I never loose interest in architecture, design and the builders/craftspeople who make it happen. We had the opportunity last week to tour The Elrod House by architect John Lautner. Privately owned, the [...]]]></description>
