Win A Free Copy of Mark Tremonti and Leslie West Instructional DVDs by Fret12

Josh — Mon, 23 Nov 2009 14:00:30 +0000

I have partnered with Fret12 to give away one copy each of Mark Tremonti’s and Leslie West’s instructional DVDs. These are both two of the best produced instructional DVDs I’ve seen. Not only are they chock full of instructional material, there’s some nice insight into their background as well.

You can see my review of the Tremonti DVD here. The Leslie West DVD is similarly produced with background info, instructional content, and special guests, including Zack Wylde and Mark Tremonti, as well as a look into the making of West’s Dean signature guitar. For you amp geeks out there, there’s also a guest appearance by Budda co-founder Jeff Bober!

So, how can you win these DVDs? Easy! All you have to do is use the Contact page to send me an e-mail letting me know that you want to be entered into the contest. Please use “Fret12 Contest” in the subject line. Please note that these DVDs are encoded for US and Canada only.

The fine print: The contest will run through Saturday, Dec. 12, and I will randomly select the winner on Sunday, Dec. 13. This should allow me to get the DVDs to you before Christmas. One winner will win both DVDs. You must supply an e-mail address, but I will not use the e-mail addresses for anything other than to contact the winner.

Here’s a trailer for Mark Tremonti’s instructional DVD:

Contest: Win a Free Ben Harper Vinyl 10″

Josh — Thu, 21 May 2009 19:50:20 +0000

I’m excited to announce another contest! This time, you have a chance to win a free vinyl copy of the “Shimmer and Shine” single, which is from Ben Harper and Relentless7’s new album White Lies for Dark Times.

I’ve been listening to the new album for the past few weeks and really like it. I think it’s one of Harper’s best albums so far. It’s got a more rock sound to it, but still easily identifiable as Ben Harper. “Shimmer and Shine” is, in my opinion, one of the standout tracks from the album.

How to Enter

To enter, send me an e-mail with the subject line “Ben Harper” using the contact form informing me that you want to enter the contest. It’s that simple! One entry per person, and entries must be received by June 7. I’ll randomly select the winner and contact them on June 8.

Here’s a video of “Shimmer and Shine”:

There’s been a pretty good response to the Jeff Beck contest I posted last week. However, you can still enter and have a pretty good chance at winning a Jeff Beck Blu-Ray. To whet your appetite, here’s a clip from the video featuring Beck playing “Big Block”:
