What Your Guitar Says About You , Part 1 .

Gibson Les Paul Classic

This player is a man who values tradition and history . He is probably in his early 20s – late 30s .

The owner of this guitar may not be super rich , but he isn’t afraid to spend . He knows that the value of Gibson increases every year . The owner is confident on this purchase decision and he is very sure of himself .

For him , it is like buying a beautiful guitar that he can pass down to his son. At the same time not worrying about the resale value .

With the same amount of money , he could had gotten a PRS Custom 24 which is more practical , better build for him. But Owning a Gibson Les Paul Classic is more than buying a guitar . It is having a piece of history , an iconic guitar in his arms .

The player has thought for a long time ..a Gibson Les Paul Standard or a Gibson Les Paul Classic . He has the money for both , but he choose to be slightly understated – The Gibson Les Paul Classic , realizing the a Standard is a little too flashy for his style .

.

.

He has execellent taste for his Les pauls – demanding it ONLY to be in Honey burst , Cherry burst or a Vintage sunburst .

This player isn’t afraid to show off his guitar to the crowd . He doesn’t do long hour gigs (Les Pauls are heavy!) , he prefers to do 3-5 songs kinda gig . He believes in Stage presence , crowd atmosphere and Iconic in-your-face loud & proud guitar solos (think Gary Moore) .

The owner loves classic rock from the 80s – think Jimmy Page , Slash , Gary Moore ..He always have that “rockstar guitar hero” dream , or he is already a rockstar in his arena .

The player is an extremely nice & humble person , unlike his evil twin- the Gibson Les Paul Standard Owner. (A Gibson Les Paul Standard screams “I am a rockstar bitch , and i do not care what you think about me” ). The owner is very sure of himself , he doesn’t need to be a dick by wearing tight leather jeans , spend 2 hours on his hair , put up some lame chunky sunglasses everytime he performs . He believes in his music and his guitar solos.

A high chance the owner has a beautiful Marshall Tube amp at home , making his guitar and his amp the perfect pair .
The owner doesn’t dig “modern pedals” , he likes straight up simple-vintage-great pedals setup . An Original Ibanez Tubescreamer from the 80s or a Klon Centaur would be his ideal pedal .

The player knows that the “world of guitar tones” is much more than his simple Gibson Les Paul Classic and his Marshall tube amp setup. But he is happy , satisfy , contend with what he has . The owner enjoys the company of a smart , independent & elegant woman . He doesn’t need to have MANY women around him . All he ask is a beautiful , quality , elegant woman to follow him throughout his journey of life .

So Gibson Les Paul Classic owners , is this person you?

Surviving .The Working Musician .

The Golden Eye Concept .

The Golden Eye Concept 2

I’ve been living on this concept since day 1 .
Not sure what is happening to Music Master today but its crazy , recently , we are in the process of rapid growth , rapid diversifying . (Trust me , it is scary ..all the risk we are taking , no good no good)

Suddenly , I found myself a new project . Which is something not-very-related to what we’re doing .

Its the F&B entertainment business .

Like – setting up sound systems , lighting solutions and entertainment solutions . Oh , creating events and parties too .

This is totally unexpected . Few months ago , i wouldn’t imagine myself entering this industry .
As for experience …well , i *think* i can manage this (hopefully)…last time my band was sort of involved in this (the performing side) .

The good news is , i found a new goal for myself .

I always have the thinking that “Music Master already done its part – we impacted the music scene , we are the guys that made that difference” .
Today , prices in Malaysia has gone from sky high , to reasonable . Internet sellers are slashing prices everywhere . Musicians in Malaysia are benefiting . I am so glad all this are happening and Music Master played its role in it

That kinda thinking is like – Oh , i’ve done my shit …let it roll now , just let the whole thing roll . 

So back to my new goal , i wanna help performing musicians through this new project. Seriously , after all these years …the price for a band per night hasn’t rise (thanks to many bands who are willing to play for cheap) .

Alright , i was referring to non-establish bands . The “celebrity rockstar” bands ? I don’t have a clue because i am not even qualified to be in that circle .

I wanna raise that standard , or at least die trying . Its time for our local musicians to rise up , gain respect from the public , no more low balling  , no more spoil market , no more “That band play for RM500 a night you better reduce your price”

Let us do things right , for a better future .

I am looking for future rockstars . Got a band ? Send your profile to event@musicmaster.com.my
