Dream Guitars Volume II Hand Picked by Al Petteway (CD)

“On Dream Guitars Vol. 1 we recorded only the limited edition Dream Series instruments made for our shop. On this record Al and I simply ‘hand picked’ our favorites right off the wall. At any given time we are lucky to have a vast collection of the finest instruments in the world. It was great fun to choose the arsenal for this CD, some old, some new, all wondrous in their own right. The array of voices, in the hands of Al Petteway, makes this recording special and unique.” – Paul Heumiller

“It’s joy to be able to play all of the wonderful guitars at Dream Guitars while doing their video demos. This second CD in the series features some of our “hand-picked” favorites, recorded with the same bare bones philosophy as Vol. I, relatively raw and with only a bit of reverb added here and there. All of the tracks were recorded in stereo using high-end microphones and preamps. I’ve come to really like this “naked” way of recording and listening to high-end guitars. It makes it much easier to experience the truly individual voices that these instruments have. I hope you enjoy listening to this CD as much as I enjoyed making it.” – Al Petteway
