REVIEWS:
My name is M.E. Minarik. I am the CEO of Minarik Guitars. I have been involved in the music industry for close to two decades, and seen thousands of excellent guitarists in that time period.
Upon meeting guitarist Stephanie Pickard, it was immediately apparent that she possesses starkly obvious star qualities. Her relentless pursuit in being an outstanding all-around guitar player as well as being "blessed" with lightning fast fingers, made her shine brightly among her peers. Since our involvement with Ms. Pickard, she has proven herself with tremendous leaps in ability and opportunity that were beyond all our expectations.
Interest from the major labels, regarding placing her into groups does not surprise us. Loyalty, professionalism, ability, and image make Stephanie Pickard the total package.

"killer vibrato!" -Paul Gilbert (racer x, Mr. Big, shrapnel recording artist)
"Stephanie Shredz!" -Bobby Alt(SDC, S.T.U.N.)
Stephanie Pickard is the most original, technical, and driven musician daring to make new and interesting sounds from a 6 string instrument. Her debut c.d. "BURN YOUR MEMORIES" is an exciting and dangerous demonstration of her musical prowess and depth. With interlocking layers, and melodies, Miss Pickard makes ones head spin trying to keep up.
