Surf rock star Dick Dale has died...

Anyone think they can play the guitar? think again! Not like this you can't.

Pulp Fiction!

Great to see a LH Strat he's playing. Jimi Hendrix didn't. He just turned a RH Strat upside down and restrung it. Of course he was terrible :)

I need to get my guitars off the wall and start playing again. Very inspiring.

Uber cool.  :thumbsup:

Interesting to see that the Strat is not just proper LH version, but it also modified with a toggle switch and what appears to be a pot, both of unknown function!

And another one bites the dust.  :(
