New stuff. No sucking. Click to enlarge<\/p><\/div>\n

First of all…<\/p>\n

…Many apologies for a very long absence. The timing of the absence made things apparently worse. I pretty much went silent after posting that a typhoon was on its way. Very stupid and thoughtless of me. I was in touch with most of the posters here anyway so most knew I was fine. I suppose I wasn’t really taking the threat seriously but I should have at least dropped a sentence. I expected to be posting right away but some unforeseens were seen…Anyway to my friends and readers, please forgive me.<\/p>\n

I have been busy as all things Hell are going well. The accessories are really taking off. Right now selling on ebay, some on the Hell website and some private sales. I’m working hard to get new products and new designs finished as soon as I can. The photo above shows some new designs that are being made at the factory now. Should have them in a couple of weeks.<\/p>\n

The guitars and accessories are part of my master plan to develop guitars\/guitar products that don’t suck. I have mentioned here and there of my general dissatisfaction with the overall poor design of especially guitar hardware. My belief is that most of what is out there is repetitive, poorly conceived and badly executed. There are a few exceptions of course but I feel that there is real dearth of intelligently designed, esthetically accomplished pieces. So we aim first not to suck while shooting for some “things” special. So far the response has been good and getting better every day. Fun stuff…<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
