Walnut,

The Light Crust Doughboys (theLightCrustDoughboys.com) are the
longest-running band in the history of recorded music and are credited
with inventing Western Swing music. Formed in 1931, the group won a Grammy
in 2003 and has been nominated eight times in the past nine years,
including a nod this year for their most recent effort, "Southern Meets Soul:
An American Gospel Jubilee," an album combining R&B, Soul, Roots, Southern, and
Country Gospel music.
ASC, America Sejung Corporation, is now offering retailers a limited
edition series consisting of seven fretted instrument models commemorating the
band's 75th Diamond Anniversary in 2006.

These are instruments that will
appeal to pros and working musicians, fans and collectors, as well as students,
and even beginners - because this is the first time that a limited edition
commemorative series is offered at entry-level price points. The seven
instruments - a banjo, mandolin with pickup, cutaway flat-top with
active electronics, hollow body jazz box, electric bass, and single- and
double-cutaway solid-body electrics - are available singly or in sets,
and ship with hard-shell case. Built at the Sejung plant, the world's
largest single-site guitar and piano factory, all feature the Diamond
Anniversary LCD Logo and the new, custom "Biscuit Brown" burst finish.
LCD bassist, band leader and producer Art Greenhaw (ArtGreenhaw.com)
has been helping to spread the word around the country, including
appearances before music merchants in Anaheim and Indianapolis. Art - and even the
whole LCD band - is available for store-sponsored appearances, workshops,
concerts, and seminars.
