Iconic Musical Instrument Company Releases Custom Shop “Gold Leaf” Anniversary Guitar
SCOTTSDALE, Ariz. – Gretsch, the iconic musical instrument company that has been at the forefront of popular music since 1883, is proud to announce the 125th anniversary of “That Great Gretsch Sound!”
At the Entech tradeshow, I met Newcastle based Guitarist/Producer Adam Miller. He was demoing some fine new guitar effects units on the Amber Technology stand. He just recently sent me a follow up email, and I’m glad he did. After having a listen to his songs on MySpace, I was hooked. Adam has released 4 albums, and has travelled to the US meeting up with guitar legend, Les Paul.
The Music Producers Forum will be interviewing Adam in the next couple of weeks. In the meantime, check out his licks and tunes on the below links.
