Located in Oregon, USA, featuring Stayton and other nearby towns in the Willamette Valley.
Nice Curves
When I was at Cartwright’s on Saturday night for a concert, I took advantage of the situation and took more photos of the musical instruments lining some of the walls. I adore this guitar — don’t know if it’s electric, acoustic, or a hybrid — so it’s the one I’m posting. I know, brilliant of me.

This music notes gate lives next to Cartwright’s Music on 3rd Ave. I took this last month, but forgot all about it. I think it’s rather awesome.

Scenes From A Radio Station

Yesterday I featured some photos from Cartwright’s Music. Ken Carwright, owner of the music shop, also runs a new community-based radio station, KENC (AM 1620) in a room next to the shop. He let me poke around in there and take some pictures. It’s a nice setup, complete with a large window facing 3rd Ave. More >

It’s a resonator guitar– it’s acoustic, but before they had amplifiers and electric guitars they would mount metal cones inside the body of the guitar that would resonate with the strings and provide some amplification. They tend to have a bright, metallic and very twangy tone. Blues guys tend to like them…
