The Chantays It is with great pleasure to have the legendary Chantays in SurferJoe. The 60s band that became famous with "Pipeline" is active and giggin' around. Hope to have them soon in a SurferJoe event. • Comments (0)  That's Dave Wronski !! A very nice article taken from Vintage Guitar Magazine - www.vintageguitar.com - by Damian Fanelli of Mr. Neutron (hope to have the guys soon in SurferJoe's listing...). It talks about Dave, his style, his guitars and his superb input to surf music during the past 30 years. Click HERE to open the PDF file.
By the way... you will probably see Dave again at the SurferJoe Summer Festival on August. We are putting down nice things with him... hope to see you there and to be able to give you updates about the festival in the next days. He is a great person, a good friend and one of the most AMAZING guitar players on planet Earth !! • Comments (0) Santa Cruz Surfin' Museum I went there once and it was a fantastic historical and cultural experience! Please visit the museum's web site and enjoy. SurferJoe is going to collaborate with the management for the promotion of their activity. • Comments (0) Dipinto + Surferjoe Great news! A new collaboration has been done in these days between SurferJoe and DiPinto, the famous american guitar brand. DiPinto is a small family owned company, still making guitars the old good way, that, thanks to the main creations of Chris DiPinto, is getting a name within the music business. Los Straitjackets are endorsers of the Galaxie 4 model.
SurferJoe will showcase DiPinto guitars at the Summer Festival this summer, everybody will be able to join us and try the instruments. Do not miss this chance!
