ALEC MONOPOLY

Here in LA, art is everywhere you turn. From the corners Abbot Kinney to the gallery district in Culver City, you can find some inspiration just about anywhere. One of our favorite artists, Alec Monopoly, currently has an exhibition up at The Lab Art Gallery in LA. He is an unidentified graffiti artist who's art parodies the game of Monopoly and humanizes the Monopoly mascot. Check out some of his work:

ROCK OUT IN STYLE

It seems like everything can be personalized these days and now guitars are no exception. We found this awesome new guitar concept while surfing Kick Starter. This company behind this ingenius concept is IG Guitars. This guitar can be customized by replacing magnetic backings with different designs on them to make your guitar your own. Not only can they be customized but this guitar has been re-engineered to enhance the guitar-playing experience with features like a balance bar, which keeps the guitar sturdy while playing, a compartment just for your picks, and more! The best part? When you put two of these guitars side by side, they look like a pair of sunglasses. Check them out!

Some different graphic options

They look just like a pair of glasses!

Rock on IG Guitars!!

DO OR DO NOT. THERE IS NO TRY.
