Collings Guitars
|
These purveyors of some of the finest acoustic instruments around are mighty cool people, too! Ruth's brand new guitar is a Collings and she raves about both the guitar and the excellent service that this Texas-based company provides. We've salivated over their guitars in the past (and are now very happy to be endorsing them) and once you hear Ruth's baby, you'll understand why.

John Pearse Strings
|
We have an official endorsement with this string company for two very good reasons - firstly, they make a great product (we're particularly fond of their bluegrass guage strings) and secondly (but no less importantly), they are great people.

Leela Gilday
|
Leela is a singer/songwriter from the Dene Nation who possesses one of the most powerful, fluid voices around. She sings beautiful songs and she has a wicked sense of humour, to boot! We all have a big ol' crush on her.

LR Baggs
|
"Advanced pickups and electronics for acoustic and electric stringed instruments." This California-based company has been at it for a good long time and their products keep getting better and better - we are proud to endorse their pickups. After you get over the fabulous acoustic sound of Ruth's Collings guitar, ask her to plug it in so you can hear her fancy new LR Baggs pickup. Don't ask her too much about how it works or she'll lie and use words like "transponder" and "replicatory sonic resonance" to try and snow you. Just kidding - all you really need to know is that it sounds goooood.

The Breast Cancer Site
|
Here's a fast and easy way to make a difference in the fight against breast cancer. Please tell ten friends to tell ten today! The Breast Cancer site is having trouble getting enough people to click on it daily to meet their quota of donating at least one free mammogram a day to an
underprivileged woman. It takes less than a minute to go to their site and click on "donating a mammogram" for free (pink window in the middle). This doesn't cost you a thing. Their corporate sponsors/advertisers use the number of daily visits to donate mammograms in exchange for advertising. Please go to the link now.
