Had a guest in my shop today
« on: September 26, 2010, 06:16:18 pm »
I had the pleasure of spending about an hour with Bill Frisell in my shop today. He played my Desktop Studio Champ and loved it.  He is a really nice soft spoken guy.

Did he play on John Zorn's Naked City record?

He is a really nice guy, and yeah, soft spoken is the right word for it.  But he knows what he wants from his guitar, let me tell you!

A friend of mine was engineering for some sessions and showed me pictures of some of his guitars.
They alone are art.
