YALS On Novation Website

Chris Buono — Thu, 24 Mar 2011 19:49:18 +0000

Here’s a short Q&A I did for Novation on their very cool Ableton-centric MIDI controller, the Launchad.

This is a great unit and should be on everyone’s list of gadgets for their live and studio setups.

Thanks to the fine folks at Novation, especially Miriam Wiener, for helping to pump the book and welcoming me to their artist roster!

Need Accurate TABs?

Chris Buono — Tue, 15 Mar 2011 17:09:03 +0000

If you’re looking for quality accurate TABs of your favorite tunes be sure to visit GuitarInstructor.com – a kick-ass guitar education source run my old buddy Mike Mueller who was Editor-In-Chief during my Guitar One days.

While you’re there be sure to check out the killer videos – many of which were masterfully created by a lot of my cronies at Guitar One magazine including Greg Koch, Troy Stetina and Tom Kolb.

Accurate transcriptions? Killer lesson videos? And more?! DAMN!

Nice work, Mueller!!

The Mighty 7-Tone

Chris Buono — Tue, 08 Mar 2011 14:17:46 +0000

In the early 90’s I studied with the great Gerry Carboy. I had no idea I would walk away a completely changed guitarist ready for the myriad challenges I would face as a freelance player in the toughest scene in the world: New York City. Many facets of Gerry’s approach contributed to my readiness and success, but it all comes back to one central approach: 7-Tone. The few, the proud and the brave who have made it through Gerry’s program know what I know. You wanna?
