I know a lot has been written, lied about, explored and forgotten about guitar slides.  It's one of those things that are relatively cheap and you can fit five of them in your guitar case so, why not?  My perspective on a lot...

Makes sense. Powder coated neck plates and matching headstocks. The Mulecasters are a unique beast. Big body volume with the steel makes for an reactive, touch sensitive playing experience. Beast mode. -Matt...

The mild steel, baritone-tuned yet standard scale length symphony of destruction headed for @arielposen, aka Mr. Stanky Leg. “swing it wide” is a good motto in the tone-quest. Sometimes you have to pick up an instrument...

The qualities of a good neck - a shape that everyone likes - not just a C, not just a V, not "thick" not "thin". After handcarving around 1,000 necks Mule customers are telling me I'm on the right track.

I stupidly sold the 60's harmony H74 I had so I'm going to recreate it in both steel and wood. Flat top at first and then arch top for the wood version. It's so fun to plan out new guitars. The wheels start turning and away...

It snowed this weekend pretty hard in Michigan. Ice, mainly, for a solid two days. Ridiculous even for here for it afforded my some last chance winter shots. This guitar is going to The Music Emporium this week. ...

Maybe you’re a little like me and you currently have two or three guitars but have bought and sold more than you can count. Or you have a couple sitting around that you never really play. Those new pickups, the maple body,...

The MuleCaster Lives. Neck through design because simple is awesome. Hipshot bender for pedal steel dreamy goodness. McNelly Pickups. It sounds alive, it looks so damn good. I want to make one for you. One of the...

Sometimes I like to call these “resos for acoustic guitar players” The nut width is the standard 1 3/4”, not the typical wider 1.825 found on most resonators. You probably won’t play this guitar every song in your set, so...

Strings. It’s all about their tune and tension, right? We use Daddario flat tops, their resonator set, but replace the high 16 with a 15. The flat tops are just phosphor bronze strings that are polished. A bit warmer but much...

A present for a son, some flamey brass goodness, a steel cutaway - an excellent group. - Matt...
