“Music is your own experience, your own thoughts, your wisdom. If you don’t live it, it won’t come out of your horn. They teach you there’s a boundary line to music. But, man, there’s no boundary line to art.”

Song Writing Tips & Tricks

By -
  There are literally hundreds of different methods used to write a song, and every musician has tailored their own rhyme and reason of doing things. Sometimes it’s as easy as playing some piano and having the words write themselves, or it can start with a poem and a mission to find the right music to fit it.

The electric bass guitar has been rumbling the hearts of people on this earth for nearly 80 years.  It wasn't until 1950 that Leo Fender put his mind into creating one of the most Iconic foot notes in Electric Bass Guitar technology to this day, The Fender Precision Bass.  The original prototype was a four string bass designed after the 6 string telecaster electric guitar (which was very popular at that time) in 1950 and marketed in 1951. It went through many adjustments and design updates over time and in 1957 it was redesigned to look more like the ever classic Fender Stratocaster electric guitar and to this day is the most popular design for the bass.  Leo Fender along with designing mostly all of Fender's classic products was also responsible for designing basses for Musicman and many a custom axe for 'G&L (George and Leo) Musical Products'.  After contracting a stre...
