    Cinar Guitars...ah..rule

    I went into a pawnshop a couple years ago and picked up this Cinar guitar (made by Ibanez). It looked like someone actually burned the sunbusrt in ,and it has a all maple neck. Its got a fixed bridge too. This guitar is amazing. I strap .11's on it and the pick-ups seem to be a little hotter...

    cover art

    I think spending hours of work penning out my cover/book art was worth it. It is b/w to help production costs, but i'd choose it over a colour photo any day.a VERY true statement i read was NOT putting pictures on the cover, in fact theres no band photos at all.
