Welcome back!
Wednesday, August 24, 2011 at 04:05PM It has been a while since my last post, so I figured it was now time! Yes, I have been very busy over the last 8 months. Lot's of new things have been added to the galleries, so look to the right and scroll down and peep the new additions.
First, my Fuel Series is in full swing with Cort Guitars and can be found around the country (and world) in various music stores. These are renditions of my custom Gasoline and Motor Oil can guitars and Cort did a superb job of replicating the prototype I made for them as a template. I have been playing the Gasoline and it RIPS!!!!
Next, My good friends Scott and Ken from The Crystal Method called my to see if I'd join them on an art project for Pioneer DJ to benefit the Save The Music Foundation. They wanted to take a Pioneer CDJ 2000 and somehow attach 2 bass necks and a keyboard to create one unit. It really turned out cool and Pioneer liked it so much that they commissioned two more that actually work! The Crystal Method has them on tour right now and they are a huge part of their stage rig. I LOVE to do create things that is completely out of my "normal" guitar building regime.
I have also added a new section called "non-guitar related artwork". This section will feature some of the other things I do when not working on guitars. Right now, it shows a piece of wall art that I did for Sushi Roku in Hollywood, CA. My buddies at Innovative Dining Group asked me to come up with some kind of "tree wall art". This is the result. It is a 5'x30' (7 panels connected) depiction of a Bonsai forest made of nails, string, wire, twine, leather cord, etc...
That's about all for now. Fun things coming up so stay posted and I promise to be more diligent about putting up new things as the are finished. In the meantime, check out the Mini McSwain Guitars and t-shirts.AGAIN.. THANK YOU FOR YOUR CONTINUED SUPPORT!!!
Best,
Stephen
