So, I'm currently electric-less since about three weeks. I'm starting to miss and am thinking about getting another one. This time I'll do my research better and actually play a bunch of them before I buy something. In many ways I liked the Hagstrom Viking that I used too have but the neck was...

Hey! First impressions. I actually hadn't played one before I bought it. There were none available locally so I had to order it. I had done quite a bit of research and got stuck on the Honey dipper due to the good reviews and fairly affordable price tag. I was afraid I'd find the sound too...

First impressions will follow. Pictures taken in the kitchen under poor light conditions.

You played heavy metal? :) Thanks for the advice. Rewinding the "tape deck" is so much easier today, especially when you can slow things down without changing the pitch. /Hampus Skickat från min P01Y via Tapatalk

I never did the theory bit and it's nothing that comes natural to me either. I don't have any problems learning techniques or how to play certain things but it's getting a bit boring. Sort of like being able to exactly paint a copy of Mona Lisa (I'm not saying I'm even close to playing anything...

Thanks guys. The Honey Dipper will get here tomorrow or early next week. Although it's been the last week with the Viking it hasn't come out of it's bag once. I guess that says it all.

Very nice photo. Good thing he's canadian and not swedish or that name would be awfully confusing for him. Skickat från min SM-G900F via Tapatalk

I just put the Hagstrom Viking up for sale, I just never play it anymore. Instead I always seem to grab the acoustic, a little mint green Gretsch Jim Dandy. See I've been getting into some Delta Blues finger picking and slide lately. Not as cool as it sounds, I'm still just doodling around...

Very nice stingx! I especially like the first one. /Hampus

That is true for sure. Sad to tink of all the good music we've missed out on due to pure coincidence, poor timing or wrong marketing. I guess it happens a lot. Just have a look at the Beatles, they were turned down by three rather large record companies before a smaller one signed them...

Kind of ironic. He got zero attention 40 years ago and now he sold out. Better late than never :) I wonder what would have happened in 1970 had he been marketed differently? I think that these two records will be the first I buy in a very long time. I usually listen to music on Spotify or...

Hello! The photo was shot on the street. I was out walking with my brother and his girlfriend and they started to throw snowballs at each other. I stepped back and started photographing. I used an Olympus OM-D E-M5 and Olympus 45mm f/1.8. The post processing is done in Adobe Lightroom 4.0 with...

Thank you :)

Spontaneous snowball fight in the street. /Hampus

I'd never heard of him before I saw on the news that the documentary had been nominated for an Oscar. I looked up his music on Spotify and listened. It's been a long time since I was this taken by something I've never heard before. It's been an even longer time since I listened to a record from...

Two more. At least one could pass as an autumn photo. The first one is a panoramic view of the city where we live. It's a combination of 5 photos stitched together in photoshop. The second one is my little 1 yr old in the process of "reorganizing" my sock drawer. /Hampus

I used to frequent a photography forum where they had a recurring photo challenge and I'd like to suggest the same thing for this place as it was loads of fun. One member (the winner of the previous challenge) got to pick the topic. It could be anything, with or without rules to stick to. For...

Nice Spud. I particularly like the third one. Hampus

Very nice! I'm a sucker for anything maritime, I love the pickguard!
