It has been a busy summer.
But here is one for all you Dr Who fans out there anxiously awaiting the upcoming
season, here is something we hope you’ll really like. Introducing GuiTardis
tm
a concept from me and guitar master builder Gerry McGuckin. This custom made
affair was produced for Steve, professional player, fanboy, and soon to be brother in
law.

The GuiTardis
tm is extremely playable for a professional and
is not much heavier than a Stratocaster. I know many Whovians that will drool
over this work of functional art. There are a few “Doctors” and former “Doctors”
that should probably have one in their collections, I think specifically of
Peter Capaldi who cut his teeth in the 80s playing punk rock guitar with Craig
Ferguson in a band called
The Dreamboys. So yeah, he needs one, and I
understand David Tennant plays guitar as well. Custom orders can be made by
contacting
Gerry 845.926.0471 or me

"Oh, It's smaller on the outside." |
And OMG, look at this place! A relatively new Whovian mecca
in Beacon NY, this Café/ Bistro is kitted out in complete Dr Who style from its
“smaller on the outside” bathroom to the Ood who greets you at the door.
Pandorica
is certainly worth a pilgrimage.
Just a quick update, Master Luthier Gerry McGuckin has had the GuiTardis Featured in the current issue of Guitar World Magazine. that's right the Newsstand print version. Does this make it more Real or more Surreal, not sure, please let me know. http://guitarworld.myshopify.com/collections/guitar-world/products/guitar-world-january-2015-trey-anastasio-rockin-in-the-new-year
