ELEVEN magazine issue 3 - Jennie cover

Issue three of Eleven is here! In a first for the magazine, this issue features a split cover with two cover stars – Shermy Freeman from The Surfrajettes and Jennie Vee from Midnight Cowgirls and Eagles of Death Metal. Featuring eleven stories across 132 pages, whichever cover you receive, the contents are the same. In our cover features we hang out at a pink laundrette with Jennie Vee to talk about the connections between art, style and music, and we enter the kitsch and colourful world of Shermy Freeman, who is an inspiration to live your life sunny side up.

We discuss Bigfoot, skinwalkers and heavy metal in the Navajo Nation with the Paranormal Ranger, go surfing and visit a classic car show with Andy Powers to find out more about his SoCal-inspired electrics, and cruise across San Francisco’s Golden Gate Bridge to visit one of the world’s premier collections of antique guitars.

We ruin yet another rental car driving into the desert to explore legendary recording studio Rancho De La Luna with Queens of the Stone Age co-founder David Catching, enter the mysterious world of the much-mythologised amp builder, Howard Alexander Dumble, and meet Jack White’s Kay archtop, a thrift store find that became the tool for the most iconic rock guitar riff of the modern age.

There’s plenty more vintage guitar content from a collection of golden-era Gibson and Fender guitars with stories to tell, including the earliest-known Telecaster and a Burst used in the studio by Eddie Van Halen. We also head to Pasadena to speak to R2R Electric about the allure of pedal-building with authentic vintage components. And we round off nicely with some playing tips from Nathaniel Murphy – fresh from soundtracking Harrison Ford during the Super Bowl ad break – who shares five ways to become a more creative guitarist.
