  • California Noise: Tinkering with Hardcore and Heavy Metal in Southern California Steve Waksman
    ABSTRACT Tinkering has long figured prominently in the history of the electric guitar. During the late 1970s and early 1980s, two guitarists based in the burgeoning Southern California hard rock scene adapted technological tinkering to their musical endeavors. Edward Van Halen, lead guitarist for Van Halen, became the most celebrated rock guitar virtuoso of the 1980s, but was just as noted amongst guitar aficionados for his tinkering with the electric guitar, designing his own instruments out of the remains of guitars that he had dismembered in his own workshop. Greg Ginn, guitarist for Black Flag, ran his own amateur radio supply shop before forming the band, and named his noted independent record label, SST, after the solid state transistors that he used in his own tinkering. This paper explores the ways in which music-based tinkering played a part in the construction of virtuosity around the figure of Van Halen, and the definition of artistic ‘independence’ for the more confrontational Black Flag. It further posits that tinkering in popular music cuts across musical genres, and joins music to broader cultural currents around technology, such as technological enthusiasm, the do-it-yourself (DIY) ethos, and the use of technology for the purposes of fortifying masculinity. Keywords do-it-yourself, electric guitar, masculinity, popular music, technology, sound California Noise: Tinkering with Hardcore and Heavy Metal in Southern California Steve Waksman Tinkering has long been a part of the history of the electric guitar. Indeed, much of the work of electric guitar design, from refinements in body shape to alterations in electronics, could be loosely classified as tinkering.

  • The Power of Bass
    The Power of Bass. For over five decades, the Ampeg name has been synonymous with Bass. Powerful, genre-defining, multi-dimensional, thunderous, smooth, groove-setting bass. From mid-century Big Band Jazz, to the birth of Rock & Roll; from Stadium Rock to Hair Bands; Funk, Blues, Rap, Reggae, Salsa, Latin Beat, and everything in between, Ampeg is there. As you browse the pages of this catalog, you'll see some old friends. From the original Portaflex to the SVT-CL - these are the cornerstones of modern music. You'll also notice a few new players....the B-5R head, the expanded B-Series cabinets, and the new Bassamp Combos. Rest assured, all are genuine Ampeg. Dependable. Powerful. Roadworthy. Modern. Innovative. Ampeg. The Power of Bass. SVT-AV 2 Anniversary Classic Series When the Rolling Stones toured in the late sixties and early seventies, the world was exposed to a new technology - the Super Vacuum Tube or the SVT. Since then, bass players recognize the unmistakable Ampeg sound - 300 watts of pure tube power exciting eight 10” drivers. The sonic result is a foundation of solid lows, cutting mids, and satisfying highs. Today’s updated reissue Anniversary models offer the same soul-shaking tone. The all-tube SVT-AV is the direct descendant of the original, but with new twists like an input gain and master volume, a five-position mid frequency selector to fine-tune your critical midrange, and incredible tube protection circuitry. The matching SVT-810AV enclosure employs the same driver technology that makes Ampeg enclosures the SVT-810AV number one name in bass enclosures.

  • Lou Reed 2015.Pdf
    Lou Reed By Anthony DeCurtis His formidable artistry has contributed timeless classics to the rock & roll canon, while influencing several generations of musicians. LOU REED’S SONGS, BOTH WITH THE VELVET UNDER- ground and as a solo artist, constitute a body of work that ranks with Dylan and Lennon-McCartney as among the most significant and in­ fluential songwriting catalogues of the twentieth century. Reed was both an artistic exhibitionist and an intensely private man; a restless experimental soul and an ardent fan dedicated to the most elemental, even conservative, principles of rock & roll; a writer with the highest literary aspirations and a guitarist with a boundless love of distortion and noise. He is best known for his most daring, provocative mo­ ments, but he has also written ballads that are heartbreakingly mov­ ing in their sensitivity, their lack of sentimentality, and their profound emotional insight. According to Doug Yule, a former member of the Velvet Underground, Reed’s toughness “protected his core, the gen­ tleness that comes out in a lot of his work.” ’I Sustaining such dualities without reducing any aspect of them to a cliche is essential to under­ standing Lou Reed and his work. Like Keith Richards or Bob Dylan, Reed is as much a symbolic figure as an artist. Well beyond the incal­ culable impact of his music, he stands for an unwavering determina­ tion to follow his own creative path and repel compromise. He allows the characters in his songs to live and act on entirely amoral terms, but ultimately he views the world that they and we move through ac­ cording to a strict moral code.
