Got a chance to play the "Six String Nation" Guitar!

Sonsey@mac.com · 9th December 2009

So I spent last weekend doing audio work for the TEDxOttawa Conference, and one of the guests was Jowi Taylor with "Voyageur" - The Six String Nation Guitar. For those of you aren't from the Great White North, or don't know, this guitar is built from wood and parts from all over Canada, including Gretzky's Hockey Stick, Trudeau's Canoe Paddle, the Golden Pine, Rocket Richard's Stanley Cup ring, and many, many more. You can check out the full story here:Six String Nation

Anyway, at the after-party we all had a chance to actually PLAY the thing, and in addition to being a wonderful piece of Canadiana... it's also a REALLY NICE guitar! Plus a unique opportunity! Thanks Jowi!
