an interview and a review

Hi everybody,

For anyone who might be interested, here's a review (and nice
thumbnail history of the band as well) of the new Absolute Zero CD and
an interview with Ken Rubenstein:

Absolute Zero are a progressive rock band. Enrique and Aislinn (and
Paul Roger, who's no longer with the group) are friends of mine, and
they're extremely talented musicians and just super nice folks to
boot. Enrique and Aislinn have a keen interest in microtonality as
well, and that's an area that they're starting to pursue with their
powerhouse band Absolute Zero--I can't wait!

Ken Rubenstein is a guitarist (okay, quite a guitarist) who I've
written about before on these forums and elsewhere. This is recent
interview and it has a bunch of audio samples and a nice picture of
his extended Pythagorean acoustic too.

He's almost got a Dinarra there!

Those frets look tied-on. Are they? What are they made of?
