  • 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.

  • Official Delta Wing Press Release
    FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE Gary Kramer Releases the Tomcat Guitar, the Newest Version of the American Delta Wing Guitar Series Tomcat Is the Ultimate Guitar For Its New Ergonomic Contour, DiMarzio Pickups and Delta Wing's Patented "Recessed Tuning" System Los Angeles, CA-June 22-Enter the New Millennium. Gary Kramer is once again “Breaking The Sound Barrier” to bring musicians a superior instrument. Gary Kramer Guitars is proud to announce the new “Tomcat” version of the American Delta Wing guitar series. Reinventing a new era in sound and aesthetics, the new “Tomcat” will change the way musicians look at guitars. Delta Wing instruments feature a radically different design philosophy that will revolutionize the future of guitar playing. Stepping away from traditional body shapes, the new bold dynamic contours were carefully developed for their maximum ergonomics. Being a sonically versatile workstation, the “Tomcat” is loaded with DiMarzio pickups that are wired through a passive EQ “fire button” and variable coil splitting stage. Through the Delta Wing’s patented “recessed tuning” system, the “Tomcat” captures both engineering and sound improvements that help the instrument resonate through the neck and body more efficiently, thus improving overall tone and sustain. All Delta Wing guitars reflect Gary Kramer’s vision of perfectly balanced instruments and unequaled commitment to the finest guitar crafting while implementing modern ideas. Gary Kramer is known for his pioneering guitar designs with Travis Bean and of course, the infamous Kramer Guitar Company. Kramer Guitars attracted a loyal list of musicians including Keith Richards, Stanley Clark, Gene Simmons, Jerry Garcia, Richie Sambora, Reb Beach, Vivian Campbell, Stanley Jordan, Eddie Van Halen and many, many more.
