On Friday the 13th April, we were privileged to have a film crew in for the taping of an episode of Guitar Picks. A Treasure HD / HiFi HD Speciality Channel show.

http://www.hifi.ca/index.php?catid=10:catg&id=278:guitarpicks&option=com_content&view=article

"Guitar Picks is about interesting people who delight in exploring their passion for both playing and collecting this amazing instrument. In this 12 part series hosted by veteran guitar icon Kim Mitchell (Max Webster), we meet guitar musicians, both professional and amateur, along with many manufacturers and collectors."

Jenn & Mike were the 2-person crew and they were great. Dave Hatch, their Director arrived later in the day. Turns out, once he got to try out the amps, he wants to buy an 18 watt amp!

They started out filming in the shop by shooting some of Andrew, Glen & I doing some amp building. Then they moved to interviews of all three of us in the "Music Room". Then our guest musician, Lawrence Bethune (lbethune forum member) played the Coholic (ajcoholic forum member) custom Telecaster guitar on the TRIWATT and was interviewed. He was as cool as you could imagine. Finally, Andrew was recorded playing his Tokai Les Paul and the 18 watt v6. He did a nice job too. We had a nice down home, country, Prime Rib dinner and enjoyed the sunset after a long day.

We all enjoyed the day and it was a great experience for all!

It will air some time in the future & we will post when here. We will get a DVD of it for historical purposes!


Thanks to Larry for taking a day off, making the trip and backin' us up!

Please mention the show to your friends. It is a great series about players, builders, music and instruments.

Congrats :thumbsup:

Looks like a great day!

Is there any way that they can post the vid after they show it so non Canadians will be able to see it?

:thumbsup: :thumbsup: Very cool Stephen. It's a great little show and I'm glad to see they're filming more episodes. I had watched an episode that featured Donna Grantis in studio and noticed several Trinity amps on the backline. Hopefully it results in a nice spike in business.

That was a good episode too. Great player. Hope everyone enjoyed the shows.

It was interesting to reflect on it. Nothing has really changed & we'd say the same things again. I particularily liked how they featured my son, Andrew. That was kinda cool.

I will get the DVD but hope I can find a link to post to it for others to see - at least those who missed it.

I'm sure it will get replayed again. I watched the first 12 episodes of Guitar Picks last year and after running all 12 they just kept repeating. If they do the same again it will air a few more times this spring and summer. If you go to the HIFI website or email them they may be able to say when Episode 18 will air again.
