Gibson Custom Jimmy Page Les Paul Custom

My passion is custom guitars. Today my friend & Guitar Guru Mike Bisulca, Asst. Manager of Springfield, New Jersey Guitar Center, invited me to check out the just released Gibson Custom Shop Jimmy Page Les Paul Custom (see photo of Mike & I with the "Black Beauty"). Recently, seen in all of the guitar magazines it is a exact replica of a guitar Jimmy had stolen when he was touring with Led Zepplin in 1970. It was built to Jimmys personal specifications. In March 2007 I had the opportunity to purchase one of the Jimmy Page Custom Shop Doubleneck guitars(see photo with Gibson VP Brett Arney). So I can tell you these guitars are the best Gibson Custom Shop puts out and the top of the market collectors pieces. If you are interested in one of these call Mike at (973) 921-0677 and he can get you set up. Mike is my go to guy at Guitar Center.

Food Superstar

My birthday was last week and my wife took me to a great steak restaurant in New York called Choice Meats. I had one of the best steaks I have ever had and had the opportunity to meet one of my true hero's Guy Fieri of the Food Channel Show "Diners, Drive-Ins & Dives". OK I am busted that I watch the food channel but I never liked it until I saw Guys show. He show cases local places that have a a mythology and serve great down to earth food. Guy was really fun and we had a great time. I know you are asking "What in the f*#k does this have to do with GZ Guitars? This guy is like a rock star of food. I always like to tell people about cool stuff I hear about and you will never know what I am talking about unless you check out his show. It is on Monday through Friday at 10pm Sat at 1:30pm and Sunday 10am. I have posted his website on my links so check him out and go wild.

Stevie Ray Vaughn- Great Tribute

I am always surprised about all of the great people & cool things I run across while I am out representing GZ Guitars. I believe that Stevie Ray Vaughn was one of the greatest of guitarists of all time. I recently was given a book about Stevie that I think every fan should read. It was written by Cutter Brandenburg (Mr Cee)who was a friend of Stevies growing up in Dallas and worked as his equipment & road managers during the early days of his career before he became an international superstar. He also worked with a long list of great bands through out his career. The book is filled with personal stories and photos of his time with Stevie and other famous musicians. If you are a guitar player, SRV fan or rock & roller who is interested in how it was "Back In the Day" order this book. I have posted Cutters website to order books in my links. He was kind enough to sign a copy for me. This is a unique and will SRV collectors piece so don't miss out.
