Top 50 guitar albums

Happy Monday everybody! So to wake up this week, we started playing music in the shop, OF COURSE, but since we’ve looped our ipod several times in all the weeks of carving, gluing and clamping, finishing, guitar setup and electrical, we were at a loss as to which album to start out with.

Google to the rescue! Or more specifically, Digg. I grew up saying “dig it?” and  still do when talking to interns about my patterns and ideas for guitars, but I haven’t gotten around to using the program too much…until today.

I came across (stumbled? how can you stumbleupon digg?) a list of the 50 best guitar albums of all time, with Led Zeppelin IV being named #1. 50 greatest guitar albums Since I had decided to play my luck this morning, I went with it without questioning the order.

What do you think? What IS the best guitar album? REALLY tough question, maybe subjective, maybe impossible, but for a Monday, this article got me thinkin’ and did the trick.

Thanks for reading! I’ll be adding more how to make guitar, how to play guitar, and more, so do subscribe and send your friends to wallpusher!
