Schecter guitars are currently known as high-end quality instruments that are sleek and beautiful, with a price to match. Best recognized for their custom-made guitars, which can only be purchased through authorized dealers with restrictions, Schecter Guitars have gained a reputation as a rare breed – and they are both rare and popular.
Schecter Guitars History
Although relatively new and with a somewhat obscure past, Schecter guitars were founded by David Schecter in 1976. Located in Van Nuys, California, the now-celebrity-endorsed company began by producing replacement parts for Gibson and Fender guitars, such as brass pickguards and innovative tapped pickups. Tapped pickups are a great addition to a guitar, as they enable a double coil pickup in a single coil package, allowing you to switch the second single coil pickup on and off to create the enticing humbucker sound.
Schecter was also one of the first guitar part manufacturers to offer “black chrome” coloring for guitar bodies, which was growing in popularity among metal artists.
The success of parts production allowed Schecter to expand and move to Dallas, Texas, but things soon took a turn for the worse. Mass-producing Schecter guitars negatively impacted their … ...Read the rest.

The Second-Hand Drums Market: Tips for Buying a Good Used Drum Set
If you’re considering purchasing a drum set, here are some tips for buying a quality used set. Following these suggestions will help ensure you don’t waste your money.
- Take your time: Be patient when choosing a drum set. Carefully assess the drums’ overall condition, checking the skins for rips or tears, especially on the snare drum. Also, inspect the snare release to ensure it functions properly – it should release and reapply quickly and smoothly.
- Check the snare sound: When the snare is released, there should be no buzzing from the snare drum. It should sound like a tom-tom.
- Inspect the drum shells: Ask if you can remove a head to examine the inside of the drum. Look for the material the drum shell is made of – Maple or Birch wood shells are heavier and of higher quality than plywood or plastic shells.
- Examine the drum hardware: Check the drum lugs (tensioners) by tightening each one with a drum key to ensure they turn smoothly and aren’t rusted. Make sure the drum lugs are secure, and tighten them with a spanner if necessary.
- Assess additional hardware: Inspect

House Music: A Synthesized Electronic Dance Genre
House is a synthesized electronic dance genre that emerged in the mid-1980s. It originated in Chicago, where it was first produced by DJs in local clubs Trance Music - Free Flowing Electronica - Have you ever found yourself dancing in a club, utterly absorbed in the melody, feeling as if the trance music is flowing through you and guiding your body's movements? This is an experience I've had numerous times during carefree nights at local techno clubs I've often wondered which type of techno generates this unforgettable sensation… , drawing inspiration from a variety of music styles such as funk, dance, and disco.
The origin of the name “house music” is uncertain. One theory suggests that it may be linked to a club in Chicago called The Warehouse, where DJ Frankie Knuckles mixed synthesized European pop music with punk, disco, industrial, and new wave, eventually creating a unique sound that became known as house music. Another theory proposes that the name comes from the fact that many DJs recorded this music in their own homes, using drums and synthesizers. A third possibility is that the name refers to the way the music was … ...Read the rest.

Haitian Art: A Testament to Human Resilience and Creativity
Haiti has been in the headlines following the devastating earthquake in January, which caused immense suffering and inspired Inspired by nature - Artist Robert Tucker talks about himself and his artist experience in this exclusive article. Inspired by nature The glorious portal of a new year is again upon me. My mind has wondered since the start of 2008 as to which direction my creative self will take. For me a torrent of feelings were released in… global solidarity. As the dust settles, the damage to the country’s cultural heritage, such as Haitian, reminds us of the good in human nature.
The formal history of Haitian art began in 1943 when American DeWitt Peters moved to Haiti to teach English. Passionate about art, he noticed a lack of galleries and exhibition spaces in the country. Driven by a vision to provide a space for local talent to develop their skills and earn a living, Peters established Le Center d’Art in Port-au-Prince in 1944. The center functioned as both an art school and gallery, nurturing local artists, many of whom later gained international recognition.
