If you haven't already heard about 'The Secret Room' then you should read this!
The Secret Room is a website where players will have access to a vast repository of tips, tricks, and techniques — the kind of "secrets" that some musicians jealously protect. But before being admitted to this password-protected site, visitors must contribute one of their own tone secrets — the kind of hard-won musical wisdom that is almost too good to share.
Your own secrets could help out others in the community, and they will be subjected to the judgement of others via a rating system. As an incentive for guitarists to share their tips and tricks, the highest rated secret between now and March 1st, 2012, will receive a Godin Summit CT; a lovely and versatile carved-top solidbody electric guitar that sells for around $1,000. Second and third place winners receive a set of Seymour Duncan pickups of their choice.
The Secret Room will have no ads, spam, or blatant self-promo. Just lots of great tone secrets. The site’s curator is Joe Gore, musician, writer, and editor of the blog tonefiend.com. The sponsor is none other than Seymour Duncan; a company famous for helping guitarists build their tone. So the partnership is symbolic in that The Secret Room and Seymour Duncan are both dedicated to helping guitarists along the way.
The Secret Room has up until this point been existing out of view, gathering many closely guarded tips from well known artists, techs, session players and recording experts.
