HALLOWEEN MUSIC.

Would you like to listen to any kind of "Halloween music" (a mix of Surf/Garage/Rockabilly/Gothic music)? The Coffinshakers is the finest group!!! (By the way, they come from Sweden).

ACOUSTIC GUITAR



Remember guys!! There are three kinds of guitar: the Spanish one, the electric one and the acoustic one. You can watch the latter in this video, in which the musician plays the main theme of Game of Thrones.

Can you feel the differences in the sound?
Do you know the main reason for these differences?
