Little Rock Frets (Inside Little Rock Jams

Breckenridge Village Shopping Center (Near the UA Theater)

Hello all!

Well we may still be feeling the heat but soon the weather will turn cool (we hope) and that furnace will kick on and our guitars, banjos, mandolins and other fretted instruments will soon face the perils of dropping temperature and humidity.

I will be holding a seminar on how to combat these changes and I will show you, in depth, how to perform a full setup on your guitar.

As always, discussions will be driven by YOUR questions, so bring 'em on!

I will also introduce Little Rock Frets' newest addition, Justin Kinchen, Certified Luthier.

A drawing will be held for several door prizes so come learn about guitars, meet Justin and maybe win a prize...

See you there!

We got word today that the Guide to Art Schools  listed our blog as one of the best music blogs on the internet. I took a look at the list and there are so many great blogs listed. It is an honor to be picked as one of the best alongside these other blogs.

You can check out the list here...

Here are a couple that caught my eye...

Jazz: The Music of unemployment - there's something to be said in an honest title, and this one nails it. It's just not all about jazz though.

My Job  - this is about life as a working musician

Thanks Guide to Art Schools for selecting us!
