We mentioned that Slash is involved with a competition over at Guitar Centre, in which you can win his participation in a 3 track EP. He’s also recorded a series of interviews for them, talking about song-writing, creating a distinctive style for your act, and some more technical, instrument related matters (they are a guitar shop, after all). Again, his may not be your preferred style (perhaps you can’t carry off a top hat), but success is difficult to ignore.
