The legend of these instruments continues in 2024.

I feel like they should say, "by the way our necks and bodies are made by a great parts manufacturer named WARMOTH!"

Fire consumed the factory

@@andrewsantos3283 Nope, fire consumed the woefully underinsured shop - the factory was fine.

I worked at Valley Arts in the late 80s, early 90s as the shipping and receiving/ deliveries department manager and was surprised to find this video I totally forgot we made. I’m the guy in the dark shirt and mask doing nothing but staring at guitars like an idiot 😂 Why? Because the camera guys thought the workers in the shop upstairs were not very “camera friendly” lol. So they asked me to stand in for the video. Working there was bizarre. Lots of big names walking in the store everyday and celebrities everywhere. It burned down after I left and when I went back years later the spot had become a Pier 1. The nicest celebrity I met there was John Fogerty, the most coked out of his mind was Steve Lukather and the most modest/ not really a celebrity was Axel Rose when GnR only had their debut album out and hadn’t really gone anywhere yet.
