Working amidst a pandemic, Slash, Myles Kennedy, and their friends in The Conspirators went to extraordinary lengths to make their new album, 4. The end result was well worth a head-on collision with Covid. We also connect with producer Dave Cobb, whose live-from-the-floor approach to recording in RCA Nashville’s Studio A has drawn artists ranging from The Conspirators, Chris Stapleton, and Brandi Carlile to John Prine and Jason Isbell. 
 
In high school, the late Alexander Dumble modded guitar amps, taking the first steps in becoming a legend in the field whose name now ranks among the truly elite. With help from some of his most-renowned clients and friends, we pay tribute.
 
Co-founder and last remaining member of The Ventures’ “classic” lineup, Don Wilson influenced the way rock-and-roll rhythm guitar is perceived and played. Fans and friends help us honor his passing.
 
Birthed before Alexander Dumble’s flagship ODS made him the go-to tone guru, we unearth a 1971 Dumble Special 16 (serial number 0001). To put it mildly, it’s “unusual.” 
 
Through the 1910s and early ’20s, Gibson denigrated flat-top guitars as unworthy of its name. But as the market changed, so did attitudes in Kalamazoo. While still fancy, the 1939-’42 SJ-100 was a budget-friendlier version of the “King of the Flat-Tops.”
