Re: hollowbody guitars

Elizabeth (surf_guitar_lizzy) - 15 Apr 2005 22:51:26

What about hybrid styles, such as surfabilly. I'm one from the school
of thought that hot rod rock, and surf rock can be interchangeable. As
far as hollow bodies in surf rock, not too long ago I was checking out
a book of Ventures tab, at a local music store, and taken aback, just
a bit, to see a couple of pics of the band using hollow body guitars.
Then again, I think The Ventures have more likely used evry sort of
electric 6-string that's ever been made. :)

is a subset of Rock and Roll and Rock and Roll is about breaking
rules, therefore someones gotta use a hollow body in surf now and
then. Hollow bodies do fit nicely in the non-surf instro styles of
Duane Eddy.
