TONY RICESANTA CRUZ GUITARS
Tony Rice is one of the greatest innovators in acoustic flatpicked guitar. Over his career, he has covered many genres, including straight-ahead bluegrass, folk music and musc that has been dubbed "spacegrass" and "Dawg music" (nickname for David Grisman).
Tony Rice plays a Martin D-28 guitar previously owned by the late Clarence White. He has been long affiliated with the acoustic guitar company Santa Cruz Guitars, which offers two Tony Rice models.
This is a place for fans to meet each other and talk about Tony Rice's music, recordings, live shows and videos. It is also a place to talk about Santa Cruz guitars and acoustic guitars. You can also discuss other topics that would be of interest to other Tony Rice fans.
Please feel free to post links to news, articles and useful websites.
I also welcome fellow guitar players to share information about Tony Rice's guitars, flatpicking playing style and instructional books/videos.
Be sure to invite your friends to this group!
FIND OTHER TONY RICE FANS!
On the map, you can see where your fellow Tony Rice friends are! Meet new friends in your part of the world, or hook up with other fans when you hit the road to see Tony Rice perform.
Add yourself to the map! To add yourself, you will need to sign up for Frappr at http://www.frappr.com (it is free, and basically a MySpace wannabe). Next, join the Tony Rice group on Frappr at http://www.frappr.com/tonyrice. You will show up on the map there and here. (You can fix how your pin appears on the map under "Group profiles" in your personal profile page on Frappr.)
I recommend that you note your MySpace profile URL in your Frappr profile and pin so that people can find you back on MySpace. This is a new feature, so PLEASE bear with me while I work out the kinks. I am not affiliated with Frappr, but I wanted to bring their map to all Tony Rice fans on Myspace. | |
