    Logo would be nice. Also, look at the paragraphs in your content. Some are indented, some are not.

    Looks a kind of "empty". Maybe list of previous posts on the right side of the page will change it? And a logo, yes.

    Ok, thanks, I will start working on a logo, but where is the empty space you are talking of?

    I think the empty space refers to when you scroll down. The menu bar on the right is static leaving a white space when you scroll beneath it.

    The site looks attractive in orange color. You must use the same font for all the blogs, check it out.

    you should definitely make a nice logo, i like the structure of the site do.
    you need some guitars on the site, try some royalty free pics, they are free to use.
    good luck

    I don't know if the orange color is good or not because it hurt my eyes when viewing it. Beside that, add a logo for your blog. A guitar logo will do. And also, add some images to your post because your blog look quite empty without any images.

    Pick a font size scheme and stick with it! That makes things look much more put together.

    Fonts look to be off too. You may want to start fresh and go with a good theme. Best!

    I like the site, but the "about" section need to be reconsidered. The about the owner text is already written on the first page and the "about" section does not provide anything more.

    Colors are nice, the missing logo was mentioned already several times.

    Use the same font size on all the posts. Also, I would consider getting a nice header done by someone here on DP. You can get some pretty good work done for around $10.

    You can put some pic and innovate a banner so that the web look nicer.
    Moreover, about the post, you should repair the unnecessary code there.

    The blog itself is very informative..

    You definitely need a logo of some sort or at least a picture of a guitar.

    I also think you need to make the paragraphs smaller. If people see smaller paragraphs they are more likely to read the entire article.

    Other than that, I am passing this on to my son in law who is obsessed with guitars..:D
