A great playing guitar with “Gumby” headstock and Brazilian rosewood fretboard. It’s Sea Shell Pink with a seashell-shaped pickup that sounds like a big Tele. Even the most jaded audience member will do a double take when see they see this guitar on stage.

Reader Guitar of the Month: A Telecaster for Many Tunings

Reader Guitar of the Month: A Telecaster for Many Tunings

Lydia began life as a 2007 Squier Vintage Modified Telecaster SSH—an already versatile guitar. With the addition of the Hipshot Trilogy Bridge it can move easily between different tunings.

Reader: Brennan Kuhns

Hometown: Baltimore, MD
Guitar: Lydia

This is Lydia, a 2007 Squier Vintage Modified Telecaster SSH. I saw this guitar played by a customer of mine at family-owned Bill’s Music in Baltimore, and was very impressed with its tones. I complimented the player afterwards, but as it turned out, she was displeased with the guitar’s weight and was in the process of making a lighter version from various parts. After she created her version, called the Bucky 13, she gave me her old guitar—now Lydia—as a surprise birthday present.

Since her 2008 debut, Toronto artist Charlotte Cornfield has built a catalog marked by close observation and emotional precision. On her sixth album and first for Merge Records, Hurts Like Hell, she widens her scope, writing beyond her personal experience for the first time. “When I think about this record,” Cornfield reflects, “I think about it being written from the perspective of being on the other side of something.”

Cry Baby BB535 Reissue Wah: Dunlop Revives ’90s Classic Multi-Wah

Cry Baby BB535 Reissue Wah: Dunlop Revives ’90s Classic Multi-Wah

The Cry Baby BB535 Wah Reissue is an authentic restoration of the expressive, throaty growl that became the collective voice of a new generation of wah. Designed with extensive input from the top early ’90s rock acts, it gave players the power to shape their own sound with a frequency selector, built-in boost, and custom inductor tuned for a uniquely warm, vocal tone. We dusted off the best-sounding model in our collection and recreated it part by part, original inductor included. For modern convenience, we added on/off LEDs for both the wah effect and boost circuit. Find your voice, and put some attitude into it, with the Cry Baby BB535 Wah Reissue.
