Greetings! Do you like electricity? It powers the world. If you learn to control it, to use it, and to deliver it for others to use you will be able to support your family with a decent income for the rest of your life. I worked one summer shoveling shingles off roofs in the south. It was a long, hot summer. I worked another summer pulling concrete level as it was poured out of the back end of a concrete delivery truck. That was also a hot and seemingly never ending summer. It didn’t take to many more summers for me to decide what I wanted to do for the rest of my life. I joined the ...

The courtroom has shaped the evolution of the electric guitar just as deeply as the concert stage. For decades, guitar players, vintage collectors, and gear heads have tossed around the phrase "lawsuit era" in pawnshops, brick-and-mortar guitar stores, and online forums—often wrapping the term in layers of urban legend and secondary-market mythology. We love to talk about the rebel builders, the copy houses, and the instruments that were "too good" for the big brands to allow. But the true history of the guitar industry isn't just written in legendary recording studios or on stadium ...
