Features in Common Andromeda “Yvonne de Villiers, founder of Luna Guitars, is not a musician, but then neither was Leo Fender. Two other traits shared by de Villiers and Fender are perhaps more important to the art of creating effective musical instruments than musi cianship: an impetus to question the status quo and the courage to respond to the answers. 2003 found stained glass artist de Villiers asking herself… What does the guitar,- as an object, really mean to those that love them?...Couldn’t guitars do more than ap peal to the ears, eyes and hands? Couldn’t they also speak to body, mind and spirit? de Villiers’ answers sparked the birth of Luna Guitars. Today, Luna is a growing, full-fledged guitar company featuring a diverse lineup of- acoustics, electric acoustics, and solidbody electrics with an equally diverse lineup of artist endorsers, both male and female.” ... Tom Watson Modern Guitars Magazine Oct 2007 As those of you who are familiar with Luna’s story know, I was inspired to start Luna Guitars with the aim of bringing balance to the marketplace by providing quality instruments for females ... guitars that were ergonomically friendly as well as visually striking. Luna instruments were embraced by both female and male players because of the innovative orna- mentation and the comfort factor. Beyond that, the company has received many letters from owners speaking to the authenticity and substance of Luna’s designs that engage players on a deep- er level. As a result of this heartfelt feedback from players, Luna has entered a new phase. Our revised mission statement puts it all together: “At Luna Guitars, our mission is designing inspired quality instruments that are physically comfortable, aesthetically engaging and spiritually nourishing.” With more people than ever making music on this planet, and because music is our world’s universal language ... Luna is pleased to speak to players’ hearts by making instruments that touch the body, the mind and the spirit. Shine On! Yvonne de Villiers “Take down a musical instrument… …let the beauty you love be what you do!” ...

  • Gear Acquisition Syndrome
    Jan-Peter Herbst & Jonas Menze Gear Acquisition Syndrome, also known as GAS, is commonly Syndrome Gear Acquistion understood as the musicians’ unrelenting urge to buy and own Gear Acquistion Syndrome instruments and equipment as an anticipated catalyst of creative energy and bringer of happiness. For many musicians, it involves the unavoidable compulsion to spend money one does not have on Consumption of Instruments and gear perhaps not even needed. The urge is directed by the belief that Technology in Popular Music acquiring another instrument will make one a better player. This book pioneers research into the complex phenomenon named GAS from a variety of disciplines, including popular music studies and music technology, cultural and leisure studies, consumption research, sociology, psychology and psychiatry. The newly created theoretical framework and empirical studies of online communities and offline music stores allow the study to consider musical, social and personal motives, which influence the way musicians think about and deal with equipment. As is shown, GAS encompasses a variety of practices and psychological processes. In an often life-long endeavour, upgrading the rig is accompanied by musical learning processes in popular music.

  • 3 Role and Context of Technology for Music-Making
    3 Role and Context of Technology for Music-Making The previous chapter has introduced various facets of the Gear Acquisition Syn- drome phenomenon and discussed psychological, social and musical reasons why musicians spend money on their equipment. It also suggested the existence of differ- ent overlapping subgroups: players, collectors, gear heads, purists and crafters. The purpose of this chapter is to develop a deeper understanding of equipment in the context of music-making. Against theoretical and empirical backdrops, we analyse why musicians invest in gear and how the musical instruments industry and other factors influence the intention to buy. 3.1 Music Technology and Popular Music Academically, the popular music discourse generally recognises the significance of music technology: ‘Without technology, popular music would not exist in its present form … popular music is, at every critical juncture of its history, determined by the technology musicians use to realize their ideas’ (Jones 1992: 1). Each step of the process requires technology, be it in the rehearsal room, on the live stage or in the studio. Despite the crucial importance of recording and production technology for the mediatised manifestations of music we consume in everyday life, ‘it is at the level of composition and realization that one should begin to analyse the relationship of technology and popular music, for it is at that level that popular music is formed’ (Jones 1992: 7). Music takes shape through musicians playing their instruments, which is what the media-focused study of popular music sometimes overlooks. We begin our investigation at the source of musical creation by considering musicians’ intentions when selecting gear and configuring setups, choices that will influence their artistic expression in the long term.

  • Luna Guitars 2013 Collection, Version
    2013 collection from Yvonne de Villiers and Luna Guitars American poet Mary Oliver ends her poem, Summer Day, with these lines: Tell me, what is it you plan to do with your one wild and precious life? More likely we ask ourselves, if money were no object, what would I do with the rest of my life? However you answer these questions, I would urge you to listen to yourself! Begin now, and pursue your answer with all your heart. If your answer is music, or any art form, you may struggle with another question: "am I good enough to call myself an artist?" Let me counter. "Does this calling make me come alive?" If the answer is yes, your art will be worthy – and joyous. If keeping your day job is a necessity, then spend your laboring hours remembering why you work, and what it is you labor for. Remembering what sets your soul on fire. Art is work, too, so you know in your bones how work can be made into art. No matter what you do, put your heart, mind and soul into the smallest details of it. The flow from your work to your art - and back again - may surprise you. All your days and your nights may become a kind of fiery play. And the results of your effort may change much ACOUSTIC GUITARS and many around you.

  • Guitar Week, July 30-August 5, 2017 7:30- 8:30 Breakfast
    28 30-Ags5 Guitar Week is one of the finest programs of its kind in the world, staffed by some of the best players and instructors available. We have been awarded both the Bronze Medal and Silver Medal Player’s Choice Award for Music Camps by the readers of Acoustic Guitar magazine, and this high standard of quality is what keeps guitarists from across the globe coming back year after year. Many of our instructors are Grammy-winners and all are world-renowned in their individual styles of guitar playing and instruction. In addition to classes in acoustic guitar, we offer three classes in ukulele ranging from beginning to advanced. Our seventeen world-class instructors will be teaching acoustic guitar classes in jazz, swing, Celtic, bluegrass, ragtime, blues, Appalachian and of course, contemporary fingerstyle. We will offer beginning level classes to accommodate those students who aren’t quite ready for the intermediate-to-advanced levels, as well as a few classes suggested for more advanced players, so please read the descriptions carefully before you decide where you belong – we want everyone to get the most out of their week. For most of our classes it is recommended that students should play at an intermediate level: students should have mastered beginning skills, be able to tune their instruments, keep time, play scales cleanly, and know how to play a few tunes with confidence. For those who want some extra practice time at an easy pace, there will be a play-along session after lunch each day in the Pavilion, hosted by Al Petteway and Scott Ainslie.
