After many years of research, as well as testing and feedback from professionals, family and friends, I have come to the conclusion that I am autistic.

Have you ever had a song get stuck in your head that never goes away? I do. In fact I experience it constantly to the point where it negatively affects my entire state of being. If you can relate, then you might suffer from something called Echologia, which is a subset of Echolalia, often experienced by people with autism or other forms of neurodivergence.

In this video, I do a review of the Kramer SM-1 Maximum Steel Electric Guitar. I originally bought this as a rock and metal guitar, so I discuss my mixed feelings about this guitar, its playability, its features and I also demo the pickups. This is an older SM-1 that I purchased in 2019 (the first series) so there have possibly been some changes in more recent models that possibly offset some of my issues that I have in this electric guitar review.

Hey guitar players! Do you struggle with tuning problems? Then you will definitely check out today’s episode where we talk to Dan Maggi from String Butler, an innovative guitar accessory that drastically improves the tuning of guitars with 3 x 3 headstock tuner configurations. Dan gives us some key insight into the genesis of the idea of The String Butler, how it works, various models available and we also dig into the theory about what actually keeps a guitar in tune. The results may surprise you! On a personal note, in my 40+ years of being both a professional guitar player, as well as a guitar salesman, I can’t say there have been too many completely innovative products that have made such an impact on me as much as the String Butler. It has completely renewed my love for my Gibson Les Paul. You will definitely want to give this episode a listen!
