      I have the same guitar. It is a Korean made Martin, that is a step below the normal Martins. However my guitar sounds excellent, and I am not willing to trade it for anything. I’m looking for some specs on it though. If anybody knows the bridge width, let me know.

      Yea, its really easy. First, plug a patch cable into the plug marked "Send" or "Out" on the back of the amp(that is the amp’s signal leaving the chain), and plug the other end into the "in" of your effect. Next, plug a cable into the "out" of your effect, back into the "return" or "in" of your amplifier (that is the altered signal re-entering the chain). Thats all u gotta do.

      : Can someone please give me a clue on how to use it, or how it works so I can start experimenting with it? How do you connect the pedals/effects to the chain, how does the chain works. Thanks for any help.

      : Hello

      : I am from Central Iowa and am in a band named One Trick Pony. We recently bought a Boss BR-8 to record our demo with. I think that the recording ability with this thing is amazing. Anyway, we have one song recorded on a zip disk. My question to you is how do we get it on to a cd? I have a burner on my home computer, and i have a zip drive. But when I put the recording on my zip drive in my computer all that pops up is a bunch of files for effects for each song and stuff like that. Do I need some sort of software for my computer? Can you please help?

      Brandon,

      the software is on the Roland Site, at least on http://www.roland.co.jp/worldwide/download/BR8_WAV_AGREE.html. This is a converter from proprietary -» WAV and back.You´ll need a 100 Mb Zipdrive.

      Good luck,

      Willem

Actually, Trey Anastasio does not play a Time Guitar. At one time he did infact play a Time Guitar, built by then Time Guitar employee Paul Languedoc. But the guitars he currently plays are Paul Languedoc custom instruments. Paul Languedoc is also the sound engineer for Trey’s band Phish.

      hey man. punk rock doesn’t rely on a specific distortion. the jcm 900 head alone gives off the perfect sound…all you need to do is adjust the knobs appropriately. also, remember, all marshall products are best when they are blasted loud!! crank up the volume and you will be pleased!! don’t be afraid to turn that knob up to "10"…even if your parents get mad!!

      Hi,
      someone has already mentioned Brook guitars, which are simply fabulous instruments. They started off, I believe, making guitars with Andy Manson who is also a marvellous Luthier.
      This coming month of May (or so I read in a colour supplement) there is an exhibition somewhere in Pimlico of British hand-made acoustic guitars. I’m trying to locate the article or exhibition now.
      It’s great to see a site like yours.

      Check this out. If you go to http://dial.to/guitar-fxbox, there’s a program there that’s shareware. It says you can only use it for 30 days, but you can actually use it longer. It does amplification and effects. You can even output files to WAV format.

      The best thing to do is go to a business that sells screws and nuts and bolts, get them to measure the thread pitch and all that and then get the the one that suits. You may have to do some work to it yourself, but that is what I did. I needed the intoneation screws and I got them from a screw and bolt shop. Mine were UNC .112 1 inch long and 40 threads per inch. Hopes this helps

      I too have a Sigma guitar. It was bought for me by my old guitar teacher about seventeen years ago. Since then it has grown more and more wonderful every day. The sound now is absolutely glorious. All I know about Sigma is that Martin were making them in Asia (japan maybe?)as cheap guitars like their own Martins. BUT they stopped making them because they were too good and sounded and matured better than their expensive guitars. I believe this since mine is truly a beautiful instrument. Treat yours well, be good to it and I am sure ti will return all your favours a thousand fold.

      I guess you want to get Amp sound through your PC speakers…
      well i do not have much experience about software amp sims..
      what I tried so far (software effects mainly) had a bad lag making it impossible to do decent work..
      my suggestion is that you get a 2nd hand good enough guitar effector with amp sim like Zoom 505 II ( not just 505 ..it won’t do)and go to your sound card line in..
      In addition to good sim of mesa,marshall and peavey you get lots of effects ….
      best would be a POD..but it is expensive…
      Or..simply plug your guitar straight into the mic input of sound card…( careful with volume settings) and just play like that..
      hope it helped…

      Ummm, yea..considering its one of the most popular amps in the punk scene, and no one really uses effect pedals. Try the presence around 3.5-4, low pretty much up all the way, mid half way, treble on about the same level as presence. Then set the gain up for the channel however you want to get the sound you want.

      You don’t have to loosen anything or make any adjustments other then simply pulling the tuner out or pushing it in … that’s it, very quick, easy and painless.

      I just picked up an awesome Kramer Baretta with dual locking Floyd Rose and EVH d-tuna from musicyo.com … it’s awesome but, your guitar may have to be adjusted by a tech, the Floyd Rose has to be, what’s called "blocked" to use the D tuna correctly. Before you buy it, talk to your local neighborhood guitar tech.

      If you like to use the drop D tuning often and want to switch back and forth, it’s a God send … but, if you’re not going to use drop D tuning, or maybe you’ll use it once in a blue moon, it would be a waste for you.

      Here’s the low down …

      Boss makes decently quality stuff. I find their chorus, and reverbs(etc) are of good quality. I used to use an mt-2 metalzone, but my musical taste has done a 180 since then. Generally, they make ok metal distrotion, but their overdrives are kinda lousy (just a/b an od-3 or bd-2 with and ibanez ts-5). As pedals go they are made pretty strong and prices are ok. They aren’t cheap petals like dod, but they are not expensive when you consider the price of some boutique overdrives(00+). However, my one boss product is the gt-3 multieffects, in the effects loop for good time-based effects and eq.

      I’m a Jazz player. I use 14,18,21,31,41,55 Thomastik-Infeld Flat Wound Guitar Strings. If you prefer a good tone, before ease of playing. Heavy gauge strings are what you need. Look at George Benson. Another important factor is the Pick. A large thick pick played at a right angle to the string improves the clarity and tone of the note.

      I had the Acoustasonic Jr, and was very happy with the sound, but found it did not have the stage volume for most gigs. I would get distortion when the volume got up to about 4 or 5.

      Since then, I bought an SWR california Blonde, and have been reasonably happy with the performance. I’m playing a Gibson j-200 with a Highlander pickup. The amp sometimes sounds like it has a "stuffed up nose" if you can imagine what that might sound like. I think I’m going to have to go high-end or have something developed custom to ever be truly satisfied with an acoustic amp.

      I’m thinking of buying an amp to use with my HD28.
      : Anybody have any suggestions? Also where’s a great
      : place to get a deal? I’ve been looking at the
      : Fender Acoustasonic Jr. Any opinions on it or the

      : How many kinds of pedals are out there? Example: Delay, WA WA, Distortion. Are there more?

      I’m about to buy the BOSS vf-1 which is around 400 and is a multi effects processor. The reason I’m confident spending so much money is because of my experience with the BOSS metal zone distortion pedal. If your looking for a good distortion you won’t be able to get a better distortion than the BOSS metalzone.

        JCM 2000 is better. I love JCM 900s, but JCM 2000s are just too cool. Dont get anything exept for the JCM 2000 TSL HEAD. If you don’t have enough cash for that, the JCM 900 is a better way to go than the DSL. Another idea might be a Mesa/Boogie Triple Rectifier. Costs as much as TSL and it is better.

      First and Foremost, play for your own ears and your own pleasure. If you like what you hear and you are having fun, that will transmit to the audience, Be humble but not timid. Don’t get drunk but have 2 beers (well this works for me to relax) Use your adrenalin rush wisely by channeling it into song structure concentration. Once you’re comfy on that level use the excess adrenalin to take you up a level on your playing once you break into any solos or fills. You’re following your passion man, so you are ALREADY a rock star! – don’t forget that. Be sure to report back to us all on how it goes. Good Luck!

      They made 355s without the VariTone switch (I think only special order though), but a 355 has a Super 400 inlay on the peghead (like a Les Paul Custom, or a Johnny Smith also, it’s a diamond shpae, but split up into 5 separate pieces of pearl). Maybe it had a new fingerboard put on it. Doesn’t it say on the label? The orange label inside the F hole often gives the model number. The possibility exists that it’s what’s known as a Kalamazoo Special…meaning maybe somebody that worked at the factory put it together at home from parts, or it may be a special order guitar from the custom shop. Why don’t you post a picture of it where we can see it?

      : :
      : Nice try – but this guitar has no varitone switch. As far as I can see it’s a 335 with pearl blocks in black with gold hardware – gorgeous !!

      Check the Gruhn site – There’s a halfway
      decent looking lefty Gretsch Country Gentleman.
      Find # EG2842.

      That one’s the real deal from Brooklyn, NY
      from the year after the Dodgers skipped town.

      The F holes are fakes though. (I personally
      prefer real F-holes, not painted ones…
      on guitars and women.)

      Gretsch quality was very inconsistent – maybe better now, made by Terada in Japan.
      (Actually a Terada copy of the Gretsch with the Gretsch name on the headstock.
      The original Filter-rons look the same but now have ceramic magnets. The originals
      were made with Alnico – far superior and much more expensive. T. V. Jones makes
      a proper FilterTron style pickup… at 20 a pop)

      After the Beatles hit the states in 1964, the Gretsch factory in Brooklyn was swamped
      with orders and the quality fell oomewhat. Then in the 70’s Baldwin all but sabotaged
      the company, similar to what CBS did to Fender.

      The Gretsch golden years were the mid 50’s to 1963.

      Still, many of those guitars have necks which need resetting. The original truss rods
      were not very well anchored and chewed into the wood in the neck. I got a great deal
      on a 1963 Double Anniversary with FilterTrons (old but not original). The neck was shot
      but a good repair shop in NY, for a mere 00, did a beautiful job on this guitar and
      now it plays and sounds like a dream.

      I played some of the new ones on 48th Street. No comparison. Not even close – in sound,
      feel, or weight, though they look the same as the originals.

      Remember your in a band not soloist. Its a team. Its not all on your head. If you get nervous look at your band members and pretend you are in the basement with them. Also no need to be nervous, this may be your first but wont be your last and you will fail alot before you will be successful. Plus a warm up gig in front of frends and family may be helpful

      Epiphone guitars are deliberately comprimised so as not to compete directly with Gibsons. For instance Epiphone les pauls will have an alder backs when an all mahogony chunk wouldn’t have made that much difference to costs. Similarly an Epiphone Sheraton will have a maple neck instead of mahogony and some mediocre electrics. However epiphone arch tops are classic guitars in the own right that a lot of professionals will just upgrade with seymour duncan pickups.
      Potentially the only difference between modern factory Korean made stuff and handmade American stuff is the price – and the badge. For instance check out Tokai.

      : Is it worth paying all that money for a Gibson LP standard when i could pay a lot less for a epiphone? I havnt playing long (maybe a year or so). Do epiphones really sound bad?

      Here are some tips.

      1. Don’t get wasted or drunk before the audition
      2. Try to turn up early if possible and listen in on other players. Get a feel of what’s required.
      3. Don’t turn up late
      4. Have spare strings. Be tuned up. Be ready to play.
      5. Don’t try to be someone you ain’t.
      6. Ask some intelligent questions but don’t come on heavy.
      7. If you want to show off your skills, be careful not to either screw up or come off looking like a poseur.
      8. Don’t have a hangover
      9. A bit of slow deep breathing can work wonders for nerves, but realize that a little bit of nervousness is a good thing.
      10. Accept the fact that you are still a guitarist, even if you are unsuccessful. You’ve given your best shot and, if nothing happens, learn from it. The more you enjoy, the better you will play.

      Hope this helps

      I don’t play clean all to much. I use distortion, I just mean that it is a brighter distortion instead of a dark sounding metal distortion.

      : Just wondering which you guys are using and what seems to work out better in your experience.

      : VVBlues

      Hey man,

      I started out loving pedals, but then my gear got stolen, and I was stuck with my little Peavey Classic 20.

      I have never had such a great tone!

      I was using a Tech 21 XXL and a Boss Turbo Distortion, but nothing compares to the tone of my little amp wound flat out! I get different tones, clean and distorted by adjusting my technique and the volume control. If I need even more grit, I’ll borrow my friend’s Ibanez TS9 Tubescreamer as a gain booster.

      In comparison to the pedals I have used, the tone I get now is more open and lively, ‘loud’ sounding. It also means I have to be more dynamic as a player to get the best from it, which is heaps of fun once you’re used to it!

      : Fender Twin-standard, modern 2×12 100w, two channel
      This has come in many different incarnations as astandard Fender model for almost 35 years.
      Fender Twin reverb-Reissue 2×12 100w two channel(but not dist/clean, two separate channels. Old style
      Fender Super Twin: Do they still make this? This is a 180w Twin Reverb. 6 poer tubes, but evidently not that much louder.(Fender in the 60’s and 70’s built in extra power to, ironically, make the amp quieter)

      You can’t go wrong with nearly any Fender Twin(as long as it has been cared for). Just try before you buy.
      The later twins will have channel switching(clean/distortion) and some may feature some on board effects. Hope this helps.

      : There are 1000’s! Boss pedals are good starting points. They have just about very flavor of noise you could want. You’ll find that Boss pedals are a bit sterile sounding. Other, slightly more expensive pedals(Electro Harmonix is a good one) have a more funky and unique sound. It’s up to you though. Just try ’em with your guitar and amp so you know what they will sound like at home.

      heres another tuning tip, all the guitars i own have double locking floyd rose brindges and heres something i found to be important, 1. always tune your guitar several times and be patient. because it’s a floyd rose every time you finish tuning the 6 or 7th string (depending on what u got) chances are the first will be out of tune. so do it about 4-6 times to get a perfect tune. also, make sure you tune it a little flat as when you tighten the locks on the neck the tension on the strings increase raising their pitch throwing off your tuning, so tune a bit flat, tighten, and then finish adjusting it at the bridge.
      hope this helps you out…

      for something to start out with, the DIGITECH RP200 is a very nice effects peddle, it’s got 80 effects and 40 of em you can customize to make your own sound as you said you wanted, it’s got a tuner and drum machine built in, and if you dont want it to effect your guitar when plugged theres an bypass feature that makes it so it sounds like the guitar is just plugged into the amp, i have one of these peddles and it works great, i have a Fender 250watt amp so you can see what im working with, they cost about 00 Canadian, but are worth it, they save a lot of money compared to if you bought all the peddles seperate.

      There are lots of pedals – distortion, chorus, flange, reverb, delay, wah, compression, too many to list.

      BOSS makes good stuff. I used to use DOD products and I was happy with them. Boss are a little pricey, but they have more features than some others. My advice is find out what you want and try out each brand side by side if possible to see what YOU like.

      can any-one suggest a suitable replacement for Strat machine heads with those hideous vertical holes for the strings? I play out one piece and if I break a string it is a night-mare trying to change a string quickly!I have changed the string holes on the backplate into a slot using a coping saw and a file, and I put a piece of string through the rivet on each string so I can pull them out of the moving bridge block to facilitate quick changes, but I still find the hole in the machine head is the slowest point. (I could go back to a Tele, the sound of which I really love, but I’m crazy about the sound of my Strat too!)

      There’s a device called a Trem-Setter that is designed to correct this problem. I’m not sure where to buy one, but I’m sure if you looked on http://www.musiciansfriend.com or some other on-line music store, you could find one.

      I’ve never tried one, so I don’t know how well it works.

      : : Just bought a new guitar with Floyd Rose tail piece. This is awesome it works great.But I have noticed that when a string is bent the tail piece moves so that the pitch of all the strings drop down. This is not a problem for one string. But when I do common things like bending one string into the same note of another string while playing both string "its out". Example: the Intro to Ted Nugents "Strangle Hold". My questions are these 1. Is the tail piece suppose to do this "Move when bending strings". 2. How do you work around this. One thing I have done is add some wammy to it when I play these notes, but I dont think I should do this all the time. After playing all these years, it is almost like I have to relearn a new way to play the guitar. Help!!! LOL

      : I’ve never owned a guitar with a trem unit, and your problem is the reson why. It’s not so much that your bridge "is supposed to" do what it does, it’s just a side-efect of the design. The trem bridge uses springs inside the guitar to balance against the tension of the strings and allow the strings to return to pitch after you use the arm. This allows it generally to stay in tune quite well when you do all sorts of things that should mess up the tuning. However, there are two negatives. The first is that if you break a string then the springs become stronger than the five remaining strings and they pull the bridge back a little, sending all the unbroken strings slightly sharp, and all by different amounts. Secondly, as you’re discovering, if you bend a string – thereby stretching it and increasing its tension – the springs give a little, allowing the whole bridge to move toward the neck very slightly, sending all the other strings flat. It’s not a problem if you only play one string at a time when you use the arm, but it makes the sort of licks you’re describing pretty much impossible. What you then need to decide is whether the ability to do cool whammy moves is worth more than the ability to do neat string bending licks. If it is you want a trem guitar, if it isn’t you don’t. Or you could use a second, non-trem guitar, for the other licks. I hope this doesn’t shatter your pleasure of a new guitar!! All the best with it, whichever way you decide to play.

      : I recently bought a 1999 Gretsch Keith Scott which is like the Liberace version of the 6120. I have mixed feelings about the guitar. It’s beautiful and plays well, but it doesn’t feel like an old Gretsch. It’s heavier. While they have nailed the look of the old models, I feel the guitars still suffer some of the Baldwin influence(Baldwin owned Gretsch in the 70’s and was known more for making pianos and organs, they alos snuffed out the original cool of the company, IMO).Heavy, finishes. However, old Gretsches often suffer from binding rot and crappy electronics(remember they were mass produced with workers undoubtedly being paid extra for more pieces).
      I have taken the attitude that my guitar is a new guitar. It looks old, but is not a super accurate repro. On it’s own it is a great guitar. You sound as if you want a repro though….
      A vintage lefty will be pricey, if you find one.
      I’d recommend playing the guitar extensively if possible. Decide for yourself. Hope this helps a little.
      PS: I understand that in 2000 the Gretsch corp was reorganized slightly to improve quality and customer service. Check gretschpages to get more ideas.

      Take it to a pro shop. You may just have laquer checking (cosmetic only, gives it character) If it is a crack, it can be repaired, but it won’t look like new again. Not sure about the electronics, depends on whats wrong, might just be a loose wire. have the shop look it over. Ask around about a good guitar shop in your area.

      I use a D. Markley Trans. The sound is good, but it has a tendency to feedback if you are too close to your amp on higher volumes. Also, it will leave a residue on the bridge. You just need to clean it off after using.Price is right. Have not tried a fishman.

Empesaron tocando a nivel bajo en clubes en argentina como el Einstein, crecieron en popularidad a los empiesos de los 80’s. desde su primer disco titulado Soda Stereo, fueron reconsodios como una de las mejores bandas amature de los 80’s, con sonidos electricos, guitara acoustica, y el typico sonido syntetisado de los 80’s, soda stereo llego a niveles giganticos de popularidad y fueron reconocidos mundialmente. despues de una serie de conciertos de despedida, despues de infinidades de discos como Cancion Animal, Dynamo, Comfort y musica para volar, rex-mix, Zona de Promesas, Sueno estereo, entre otros, soda stereo por fin se desintegro en 1996. Sus Integrantes siguen con projectos personales como Plan V, Y Cerati a sido muy sobresaliente con su carrera como solista, desde su primer devout como solista con "amor amarillo", (anterior mente havia realisado un disco con daniel melerno llamado "colores santos), pero su carrera como solista empeso con amor amarillo, luego siguen; bocanada, once epicodios synfonicos(un cd que incuye canciones de soda stereo e gustavo cerati), luego "bien",(un soudtrack de la pelicula en la cual el mismo actuo), final mente sigue "Hoy es siempre", mi cd favorito, con mesclas basadas en el hip-hop, electrico, y infinidades de sonidos, crati realmente logro componer uno de los mejores dicos de pop/rock en espanol de la historia. Cerati sigue escribiendo y componiendo canciones no solo para el sino tambien para porjectos particulares. Quedara en la historia como uno de los maestros de la musica indesechable.

      What kind of pedal should I buy to get his sound. Is it a delay pedal. I really enjoy the tunes off of "The Wall" cd.

      : I LOVE THE SOUND OF TELECASTERS, BUT THE ONES IVE TRIED ARE A BIT HARD TO PLAY(HIGH ACTION). I KNOW THEY SOUND BETTER THIS WAY,BUT I NEED A LOW ACTION AS I HAVE GOT DAMAGED NERVES IN MY HAND. I HAVE A LES PAUL STANDARD(WITH VERY LOW ACTION AND 11 GAUGE STRINGS) BUT I JUST LOVE THE TELECASTER SOUND. IF I COULD, I WOULD ACCEPT THE HIGH ACTION BUT I CANT. I HAVE HEARD OF A COMPANY CALLED "WARMOUTH" WHO MAKE NECKS TO REPLACE FENDERS, THEY APPARENTLY HAVE A BIGGER RADIUS AND CAN HAVE A LOWER ACTION. ANY INFO WILL BE MUCH APPRICIATED

      Hey Man,
      Here’s what you do. If you like a floating trem, that is, with the trem on a slight angle so you can affect the pitch up as well as down, then adjust the trem screws until you are happy with the amount of pitch bend you are getting. I think standard stuff for a strat is 1.5 pitch above standard tuning.
      You get a better tone from having your trem flat though! If this applies to you, wind in the trem springs until the trem is flat against the body, being careful not to over tighten them.
      http://www.fender.com has a tech site which will help you nut out things like neck relief, truss rod tension, string height, and scale length, all of which need fine tuning when you put on a different string gauge. Yeah, it’s a mission! But it’s about time you became more intimate with your instrument, if you know what I mean…

      Peace.

      : You do need to get the bridge flush with the top of the guitar again. To do this you tighten the screws into the body that are attached to the spring claw. Only turn them 1/4 turn at a time. Retune your guitar…repeat if necessary.

      : Because you are increasing string guage you will probably need a neck adjustment with the truss rod and also a intonation adjustment. These are easy to do yourself but if you have never done it have a guitar tech show you how so you don’t break your truss rod by overtightening it. Remember always make any adjustment a small amout at a time.

      Line 6 makes Ampfarm… not free though. There are others…not free either.

      You might be able to run your guitar thru a fuzz box, then thru a direct box or mixer, and then into your computer. I haven’t done this. Probably wont work.

      I know they make little boxes that you could plug in and play through your stereo. This would work for your computer but again this is not free…

      My advice: save $ for an amp. 🙂

      I’m just picking up the guitar again after a 14 year break. I was wondering if anyone out there had ever heard of a guitar company called "Time" I used to have one of their guitars (handmade in Vermont I think) and it was awesome. I guess they went out of business.

        I’ve had the pleasure of owning at least twelve of these "Time" guitars. The company went out of business in the late 80’s after several ownership changes. They made 364 guitars, total output. Alan Stack was the creater and original guitar maker. If you look hard enough, you might be able to locate one of these fine, handmade instruments. VT, NH, upstate NY are the best places to look. If you find one let me know! I still want as many "GS series" models as I can find. Happy hunting!

He is the only one who still makes Time guitars, and if you can get one they are amazing. I have one myself and i’d never sell it. It’s in mint condition. There is a shop in toronto canada called "songbird" which has 1 or 2 time guitars but that’s all i know.

I play a ’77 Telecaster. I sing and I would like to write music. I’m really not too much of a lead guitarist but I can keep a rhythm.

      : I’d say for right now, a 00 Epiphone Les Paul will do you okay. The catch is, you have to look at many of them because they are inconsistent. Some are sloppily made. For right now, you can get away with 00:00 for the guitar and 00 for a good set up/repair/fret dressing. You may want PU’s too. buy a Les in two years if you’re still playing. And I recommend saving for the whole hog when you do get a Gibson. Get a used Historic.

      : Just bought a new guitar with Floyd Rose tail piece. This is awesome it works great.But I have noticed that when a string is bent the tail piece moves so that the pitch of all the strings drop down. This is not a problem for one string. But when I do common things like bending one string into the same note of another string while playing both string "its out". Example: the Intro to Ted Nugents "Strangle Hold". My questions are these 1. Is the tail piece suppose to do this "Move when bending strings". 2. How do you work around this. One thing I have done is add some wammy to it when I play these notes, but I dont think I should do this all the time. After playing all these years, it is almost like I have to relearn a new way to play the guitar. Help!!! LOL

      I’ve never owned a guitar with a trem unit, and your problem is the reson why. It’s not so much that your bridge "is supposed to" do what it does, it’s just a side-efect of the design. The trem bridge uses springs inside the guitar to balance against the tension of the strings and allow the strings to return to pitch after you use the arm. This allows it generally to stay in tune quite well when you do all sorts of things that should mess up the tuning. However, there are two negatives. The first is that if you break a string then the springs become stronger than the five remaining strings and they pull the bridge back a little, sending all the unbroken strings slightly sharp, and all by different amounts. Secondly, as you’re discovering, if you bend a string – thereby stretching it and increasing its tension – the springs give a little, allowing the whole bridge to move toward the neck very slightly, sending all the other strings flat. It’s not a problem if you only play one string at a time when you use the arm, but it makes the sort of licks you’re describing pretty much impossible. What you then need to decide is whether the ability to do cool whammy moves is worth more than the ability to do neat string bending licks. If it is you want a trem guitar, if it isn’t you don’t. Or you could use a second, non-trem guitar, for the other licks. I hope this doesn’t shatter your pleasure of a new guitar!! All the best with it, whichever way you decide to play.

      : I have a american standard strat and it’s got the regular tremlo strat bridge that I guess I see on all the standard strats…anyways ok….now I used to have a set with the smallest guage being the 9 (high e string) now I put a new set of strings on which has the lowest guage of 10 (low e string)…so instead of the ernie ball slinky strings I used to have I now put a set of whatever they call it that is one whole guage set higher….now this increase will put more pressure on the bridge…resulting in the bridge popping up because the guitar bridge is not set for this new heavier set of strings….I’ve done this before without adjusting the bridge on another guitar..and the bridge popped up and I had to take it in…now on this guitar I don’t want to screw it up like the last one and have the bridge pop up again…now I know that if you take the back cover that is on the back of the guitar off you will see the screws that are connected to the bridge…these change the bridge and I’m guessing will solve the problem of the bridge popping up….do you see more of what I’m saying now?

      : btw ICQ is 9913113

      Okay, I get it. I’m afraid I’m now back to the first part of my previous answer – I don’t have enough experience of trem-equipped guitars to advise you, I’m afraid. What I do know is you should get a far better tone with 10s on instead of 9s, so I’d stick with them. I’m sure someone else will come back to you on how to sort the bridge. I’m sure its very simple once you know how. I think I’m about the only person in the world to have been playing for 20 years and never owned a Strat! Good luck with it, anyway, and sorry I’m not much use on this one.

      I’m trying to picture what you’re doing here and it doesn’t feel right to me. Does your guitar have a trem arm? If it does then I think I see what you’re saying, and as I’ve never really used gutars with trem arms much I couldn’t advise you except to say that I don’t think you need to unscrew anything. I might be mistaken, in which case I’m sure someone will say so, but I really don’t think installing heavier strings means you need to be unscrewing anything. If you don’t have a trem arm then you definitely don’t need to be unscrewing anything inside the guitar. Theoretically, the heavier strings will change the setting of the neck and require an adjustment to the intonation, but it is theoretically. I’m quite sure it is sometimes necessary but I’ve not needed to on most of the guitars I’ve put heavier strings on. Perhaps someone with better ears than me can hear that there’s a problem, but no-one’s ever mentioned it. What’s the guitar, does it have a trem arm and how much heavier are you going? And having gone heavier, are you dropping the tuning, because if you are – and many people do – then you’re going to cancel out the increased tension anyway.

      First, you need to get lpenty of practice in. You already know that. The rest is psychological. Every time you get a few minutes between now and the audition, close your eyes and picture yourself playing better than you ever have before, getting all your licks right, with exactly the sound you want. Once you’ve got that image clearly in your head, just keep reminding yourself that you are the only person they could possibly pick for this gig, because no-one’s going to play it better. On the day, just go in and make it real. Have fun, good luck, knock ’em dead.

      I have some older to new guitar mags. Guitar for the practicing
      Musician, Guitar World etc…….

      I thought I might have a collection someday but have been unable to
      pursue building it.

      Since I am moving soon I would like to give these mags away to someone
      who truly would like to have them. I would hate to just throw them
      away.

      Unfortunately over the years some of the mags have gotten damaged but
      over all they are in OK condition.

      I am not asking for any money and I do not have the time to spend
      shipping them. If you are in So. California and are interested in
      getting these please email me at [email protected]

      I am in the Pomona area. About 25 miles east of LA right off the 10
      fwy.

      Below is a list of the mags that I have. Please don’t waste my time
      with any requests for part of the listing. It is all or nothing.
      Please don’t take them all just keep what you are wanting and throw
      away the rest. If you are only interested in a few, take them all and
      give away what you do not want.

      Is there any effect inputs on your amp??
      If so, just connect al your pedals from the input,
      to the output—- Or you can just make a loop with
      them, conect pedals after your guitar, into the
      input in you amp– (from input to output)

      I have one, and the answer is yes on first and ? on second, but I think you can use two delays at same time not sure why you would but it has two. For me it is complicated and takes alot of time finding the sounds that I like. The big thing is it is one device that can do more then ill ever need. Their will be much to learn if you get one. But right out of the box their are a huge number of sounds that you will love. I get tired of caring all this crap around so this has been a plus for me.

      Just bought a new guitar with Floyd Rose tail piece. This is awesome it works great.But I have noticed that when a string is bent the tail piece moves so that the pitch of all the strings drop down. This is not a problem for one string. But when I do common things like bending one string into the same note of another string while playing both string "its out". Example: the Intro to Ted Nugents "Strangle Hold". My questions are these 1. Is the tail piece suppose to do this "Move when bending strings". 2. How do you work around this. One thing I have done is add some wammy to it when I play these notes, but I dont think I should do this all the time. After playing all these years, it is almost like I have to relearn a new way to play the guitar. Help!!! LOL

      Lets make this short and nice sweetpants. First of all, get rid of the name, its obviously a missed attempt at being funny. I’m only 18, and probably have the least mature sense of humor on the website, and even I don’t think It’s remoteley funny. You’re obviously a degenerate who has unfortunatly failed in life, so somehow acting like a ravaging homosexual should make up for it. Your thought process is nothing less than just plain weird. So, you should get off your ass, which is probably quite sore from the frequent rogerings you receive up the poop chute, and go get A LIFE. By the way, if Hendrix were here, he would listen to you play, then take one foot and stick it in your mouth, take your other foor and cram it up your loose asshole, and take your guitar and knock you out with it. Stop wasting your time here, it would be better spent picking up other men of your kind.
      Sincerely,
      One of Jimi’s devoted Fans

      The gibson guitars from ’67-’73 are, depending on the model, rare collectors items. Les Paul guitars from ’61 have sold for upwards of 00,000. It may be a worthy investment to get a price estimate for it.

The 500 series are amazing and sound just as good as ever. You pretty much can’t go wrong w/ any of the models. There lowest line(the 300) will sound better than pretty much anything ele’s. Just imagine what the limited edition and such sound like. Hope this helps a little.

      For 00 you can’t beat a Charvel Model 4. Just read the reviews at harmony central:

      http://www.harmony-central.com/Guitar/Data4/Charvel/Model-4-01.html

      You will only find these pre-owned.

      Your amp will be a matter of what sound you like at a price you can afford. Modeling is the hot thing now. If you get a modeling pre-amp (POD, J-Station, GT-3, etc) you can run direct to headphones, stereo system, or sound console. If you want an amp with the modeler, you’ll need a keyboard amp or a guitar amp with a "power amp" input (sometimes called a "stack jack") to bypass the amp’s pre section and get the best out of the modeler. So if you want a guitar amp now but may get a modeler later, don’t forget to look for a "power amp" input jack when you’re hunting.

      How much is it? I personally don’t care a WHOLE lot for emgs, but a lot of people swear by them. I’d go and play it a bunch through a bunch of different amp settings. If it feels good, and plays well, and sounds good, and you like it, then go for it if the price is right, I don’t know what it’s worth, go ask the forums on (www.vguitar.com). Yes a telecaster is a good guitar. This one may be very good. Go play the hell out of it and give it a shot.

      In everything that I’ve heard, they sound good, but they sound the same in every guitar, say a 00 HH squier and a 000 les paul, sort of like it cuts all the tone of the wood out. So if you have a good sounding guitar, and it’s not just the pickups, then EMGs won’t take advantage of that. This is all simply stuff that I’ve read, I’ve never tried them myself.
      I’d also be reluctant to have another battery to replace, especially if if were in my favorite axe.

        Well this goes to prove a point, you can’t always believe what you’ve read. EMG’s are without a doubt the best pickup ever made–I also work for EMG so my opinion may be a little biased. And as far as the battery is concerned, the obvious differences between active and passive pickups is well worth 9V…

      Fender uses a non-tilt headstock because it’s chea[er and easier to manufacture. That way, they can build each neck out of a 1" x 3" piece of wood, and in doing so save some cash, but it’s also alot easier to do. I personally don’t care for string trees, so I usually stick with tilted headstocks.

      " These would be great pickups if you want to sound like Paul Gilbert, if you want a PAF tone, you’d be screwed. We really do need to know what you want to sound like before any recommendations are made, IMHO.
      : Seriously, you could pot pickups yourself, too, check out (www.stew-mac.com) there is a section of trade secrets where they tell you how in great detail.
      : -RIck "

      no , wrong , the reason those pickups were selected was for many sounds u can get out of them, i have used that combo and can make them sound like almost any thing ,the key to tone is pickups and the way they are wired(pickup selector position), right amp for the job and most of all your hands.

        I owned Kirk Hammet’s KH-2 and exchanged it for a custom made Les Paul. The KH-2 skully has two emg 81’s. I played it and compared it with my charvel american custom made jackson and noticed that there was no difference in sound except for the volume. The EMG 81’s sounded noticably louder. I thought the EMG 81’s have a loud and yet clear sound. If you want to get that crunchy metallica or slayer sound, then get emg 81 cuz that’s what they use. but then again, i get the same sound with my jackson and i don’t have emg’s anymore.

      In a blatant attempt to either get the improvisation bug
      out of my system, or develop it further, I am recording
      when I feel the urge. I am then uploading whatever I
      recorded to my mp3 page and calling it "Weekly Improv".
      The first one is up already at http://www.mp3.com/jimgraham
      and the track under that title will be replaced with a
      new one each week. These are all out improv, warts and all,

      For scales I’d highly reccomend the guitar grimoire.Its the definitive source for guitar scales-go to a bookstore and get it.

      For jazz at least initially its most important to get a grasp on chords, and chord prograssions.An easy book I’d reccomend is chords and progressions for jazz and popular guitar by arne berle.

      You really should build your reading skills.MI press has a series of books on theory one of wich is an excellent course for sight reading.

      once you get that down a wee bit then you need to get a fakebook(or real book) of jazz standards.Learn as many tunes as possible.THis is the key learn the tunes.And also from triads to chords to pentatonics to diatonics learn when to give more and when to give less.

      Rythm is also of the essence-accenting the beat.

      When you can read music theres a wonderful book on harmony by george van eps worth getting.

      also mimick other players:alan holdsworth, jim hall, wes montgomery, joe pass, barney kessell,
      grant green, tal farlow, kenny burrell, john mclaughlin, al di meola, charlie christian, django reinhardt, lonnie johnson etc. etc.

      Correct: Fenders do not have tilt back headstock. BUT, they DO have string trees on at least 2 strings which applies downward pressure in the string which is similar to a tilted head stock. Check it out. I would say on 90% or better non-tilting headstocks you will see a string tree or two.

      Sorry to say it but Kahler is out of the tremolo business. They got tired of fighting patents with Floyd Rose. I know a friend in Cali who wnt to visit their factory and they are making golf parts. They have no inventory of parts.

      Your best bet is to find guitars that are beaters with a kahler and rob them for parts. Check ebay and other sites cause they do pop up from time to time. Also go to guitar shows and ask dealers if they have parts.

      Good luck!

      I have an old red anodized Kahler Pro Tremelo. I lost one of the tuning screws. Does anyone know of where I can pick up some extra ones. I actually have 2 Kahler’s.

      I had to get them about 15 years ago, cuz’ Floyd Rose wasn’t making them for Lefties which I am. The pro as you may or may not know, can be either a lefty or a rightie!

      I’m interested to find out opinions on tilt vs. Non-tilt headstocks. I think I know the idea behind the tilt- to increase string tension. But Fender has been very successfrul with non-tilts. Maybe Fender own the patent for this? Any opinions or researched information would be really great. Thanks!

      The LTD’s are very poor quality, probably even worse than Epiphone. If you like the ESP’s, you should pay the money, they are top the line guitars. The LTD’s are made from plywood or other cheap wood in China and Korea. If you do want an ESP, consider buying one used, for example on eBay, they are half the price of a new one. just make sure you are getting a real ESP- some people will try to sell LTD’s as the real deal.
      : i am thinking of buying LTD, but i heard it just like the epiphone from GIbson n it sucks.
      : CAN i change the LTD guitar’s hardware from original black to chrome?

      OK, the start of the chorus just has Kurt playing from C to F (listen to the song and you should get it?, Now Pat Smear first plays the F major scale which goes like this:

      E 1 3
      A 0 1 3
      D 0 2 3
      G
      B
      E

      Then he goes up to the C major scale which goes like this:

      E
      A 3 5
      D 2 3 5
      G 2 3 5
      B
      E

      Listen to the song to get it right. Ps. Its half a step down on the album

      : "the humbucker from hell #dp156" or "the tone zone #dp155"
      These would be great pickups if you want to sound like Paul Gilbert, if you want a PAF tone, you’d be screwed. We really do need to know what you want to sound like before any recommendations are made, IMHO.
      Seriously, you could pot pickups yourself, too, check out (www.stew-mac.com) there is a section of trade secrets where they tell you how in great detail.

      I bought a semi-solid Tanglewood a couple of years ago. I experienced similar microphonic
      feedback (not normal acoustic feedback). Replacing the pickups would do the trick — any
      reputable make would be an improvement. However, for the cheapest option, consider
      getting the pickups sealed by a guitar tech (he’ll use parafin wax or epoxy resin). This
      should eliminate the microphonic feedback. Personally, I didn’t bother. I just gave the
      guitar to my brother…

      hello Paul,ive been a guitarists going on 35 years and finally got sick to death of standard lessons.Started my own web site with a much simpler method of learning.The thing to remember is (depending on your goals),theres no secret to playing and learning quick. IT DOES REQUIRE COMMITTMENT from the person wanting to learn.Not to discourage you ,most people quit quick because going by what your standard lesson teaches,are just too lengthy and confusing,at best.Ive developed a much simpler course,by starting small.The most played chords at first,master this 15 page crash course before trying to advance,and your on your way .once you understand how to use the guitar ,then everything falls in place as time goes on.I always ignore chord books and Tabs!Tabs , what a headache!!You have to be advanced enouph just to read them.Some guitar instructors fail to remember what it was like when they started .I created this course because I got tired of people asking for lessons,unfortunately I dont have the patients for that one on one thing.So I put it on file and hope to help frustrated beginners.There is only one problem,my server messed up and my site is temp. down. But it will be up and running,and your welcome to check it out.(www.rockad.com/guitarworks/ ) check it daily and tell your friends..Let me know if it helped ,OK?Good luck to you.

      I just went through the same deal…..comparing POD, Jstation, RP2000, and the GT3…….and the winner is………RP2000…..they all have their drawbacks but the ones that were pointed out by the previous post were not even an issue for me…..my tuner seems to work flawlessly, I have no noticable pause between patches….and the best thing about the RP2000 is the stompbox setup, once you get the user presets programed for some really usable sound its really easy to use….the problem is that the factory presets are WAY too much of everything(like they wanted to show you all the fx at one time)…..I spent hours and hours locked in a room at Mars experimenting with all of them and thats the only way to find out which one is best for YOU…..and be sure to take your own guitar and amp so you can really find out what its gonna sound like

      Honestly, it’s going to matter as to what sort of sound you want. You want "not screechy" but what else do you want? Also, installing pickups is pretty easy, you just need some rosin-core solder and a small soldering pencil(15 watt). The cost of these would be cheaper than getting them installed, and having both paid for installing and doing it myself, DYI is more rewarding and just less hassle I think.
      As for pickups, many people like Duncans, Fralins, Rio Grandes, Dimarzios and Lawrences. I can’t offer too much advice until I know what you’re going for, and even then I can’t offer much.

      yes, your tremelo is probably sunken into the hole, its not that uncommon really. if the backing to the floyd rose mechanics on the back of your guitar is not already off, take it off now. the floyd rose unit locks, or rather slides nicely into those weird looking screws on either side, theres little inlets in the unit for these. just fiddle with it, but make sure the springs arent on at the bottom, because that will make this harder. once the unit is slid onto the two screw things, hold it in place. look down below where you took the backing off, youll see where the unit itself comes down and there are either three or five holes for the springs, however many springs you have, put them in symmetrically. then, if the other sides of the springs arent already hooked onto that weird looking metal thing with the hooks, hook them on too, so that they line up with the holes. you know what i mean. while doing all this make sure that your strings are loose or not on, and you should be holding the unit down whle doing this, so theres not a lot of stress on the springs. now, when you go to put te strings on, just make sure youre holding the whammy bar forward (the direction of a bar dive), so they will come on loose first. im assuming you know how to clamp the strings into place with those metal cube things, thats not that hard. once those are in, just attach the strings to the tuners in the headstock. as you make them tighter, the floyd rose will begin to become normal looking again, as long as you slid the unit into the screw looking things. now if ever a spring pops out, you dont have to worry. the guitar will go out of tune, thats usually how you know a spring came out, if you didnt see it. simply push the whammy bar down gently the OPPOSITE direction of a bar dive, until the springs arent taught, and just put it back on like the rest of the springs. i hope this EXTENSIVE (sorry) follow-up has helped you, if anyone has any other questions about guitars, music, theory, whatever, email me at [email protected]

      : My personal favorites are the Matchless Clubman and the Soldano Atomic. An old Orange Graphic and too bad either!

      : Jj
      : Must agree on the Soldano A 16. For the 4164380 you CANNOT beat it. Plug it into a 2/4-12 cab,and it sounds GREAT. If you use it by itself,change the spkr. But 1-12 amps don’t do justice(generally) to the amp w/only 1 spkr. It’s a BEST BUY!

        I’m thinking of buying an ESP diamond plated guitar, but I’ve heard stuff about the plating isn’t that good or something, and I’ve heard a lot of people talking about having their’s custom plated. I just wanted to know if anyone actually has one and if they are actually cool, and if its real diamond plated metal and not like painted on or anything. Thanks.

      Not only does the size matter but also and probalby more importantly, is the type of wood the guitar is made of.
      A maple body would be more bright than mahogony which is more brighter than alder or basswood.

      I just bought a used Epiphone Casino. It needs a replacement part for the tremolo system. I believe it is a vibra tone tremolo system. One of the little hooks to hook the string on busted off.

      Does anyone know of a place to order replacement parts is?

        Try going to Yahoo and in the search engine box type in Bigsby tremelos. They will have the model George Harrison used on his Epiphone. That’s the one you want anyway. Bigsby makes special tremelos with different names on them for special customers. I believe it is the model B-7 Bigsby tremelo you want. In either case it is the best tremelos made. Good Luck

      get a stewert macdonald catalog and buy a book! no i’ll be nice but u really got to jump right in, u got guitars take one apart put it back together, learn how to use a router, drill press ,bandsaw ,basic tools first ,then fret tools ,install a floyd rose ,learn about paint/laccer and finishes ,i learned by f**king
      up my first guitars and then trying to fix them. if you want to jump right in i suggest you buy a pre cut body and a ready made neck (stew-mac,warmoth,all-parts)
      and go from their. if you do it like that you’ll still
      have to install -bridge,pickups,pots,pickguard,jack,- and paint and setup, not a bad first lesson, hell with that alone you can do 99% of guitar repairs. after that take the next step make a body ,last and the hardest thing will be making necks from scratch – somthing i still haven’t attempted not enough time,tools, mabey in a year or so when my life is normal and i got time.

      compatibility with cubase,cakewalk,protools,logic audio,wavelab,cool edit pro.- the major home user audio editors (buy the way you’ll need one of those and thats where the real hit to the wallet comes in! 00-000 and up! buy the way i have most of those with plug in’s make me an offer i’ll sell em cheap!

      3. I like the Brian Moore 7 strings.

      I doubt you will find many who agree with me though.

      Hi,

      MN indicates that it was made in Mexico. That I am sure of. Now, I have heard that the last 2 digits are the year reversed. In your case, 1997. But that I can not confirm.

      Reconsider buying a high end guitar online or mail order. Every guitar plays and sounds a little different, even among the exact same model. I would pay extra to actually play the guitar I was going to buy. I know they offer to take it back if you don’t like it, but who pays the shipping? Besides, you might have to play a few before deciding. Just a thought.

      Hello, My Friends..

      I Found This Mail On A Bulletin Board And Decided To Try It.

      You Can Make Thousands Of Dollars Within Weeks With Only An Initial Investment
      Of .00!

      So I Thought, "Yeah Right, This Must Be A Scam",
      But Like Most Of Us, I Was Curious, So I Kept Reading. Anyway, It Said That You
      Send .00 To Each Of The 6 Names And

      Addresses Stated In The Article.
      You Then Place Your Own Name And Address At The Bottom Of The List
      At #6, And Post The Article To At Least 200 Newsgroups.
      (There Are Thousands). No Catch, That Was It. So After Thinking
      It Over And Talking To A Few People At First, I Thought About Trying
      It.
      I Figured "What Have I Got To Lose Except 6 Stamps And .00,
      Right?".
      Then, I Invested The Measly .00.

      Well, GUESS WHAT!!!! Within 7 Days,
      I Started Getting Money In The Mail!!!
      I Was Shocked. I Figured It Would End Soon, But The Money
      Just Kept Coming In. In My First Week, I Made About 5.00.
      By The End Of The Second Week,I Had Made A Total Of Over 000.00!!
      In The Third Week, I Had Over 0,000 And Its Still Growing. This Is Now My
      Forth Week And I Have Made A Total Of Just

      Over 2,000 And Its Still Coming In Rapidly. Its Certainly Worth .00 And 6

      Here Are The 4 Easy Steps To Success:

      STEP 1:Get 6 Separate Pieces Of Paper And Write The Following On Each Piece Of
      Paper:
      "PLEASE PUT ME ON YOUR MAILING LIST". Now Get 6 US .00 Bills And Place ONE
      Inside Each Of The 6 Pieces Of Paper So

      The Bill Will Not Be Seen Through The Envelope (To Prevent Thievery). Next,
      Place One Paper Inside EACH Of The 6

      Envelopes And Seal Them. MAKE SURE
      THERE IS ENOUGH POSTAGE ON YOUR ENVELOPES.

      You Should Now Have 6 Sealed Envelopes, Each With A Piece Of Paper
      Stating The Above Phrase, Your Name And Address, And A .00 Bill.
      What You Are Creating Is A Service. THIS IS ABSOLUTELY LEGAL!
      You Are Requesting A Legitimate Service And You Are Paying For It! Like Most Of
      Us, I Was A Little Skeptical And A Little

      Worried About The Legal Aspects Of It All.

      So I Checked It Out With The US Post Office (1-800-725-2161)And
      They Confirmed It Is Indeed Legal! Mail The Six Envelopes To The
      Following Addresses:

      #1) T. Gray, 72 Broadleaf Avenue, Bishops Stortford,
      Herts., CM23 4JZ, United Kingdom
      #2) J. Fugate P.O.Box 6638 Evansville, In 47719-0638
      #3) M. Sadique, BB-G-9 Jln 4/14B, Pandan Indah 55100, KL, MALAYSIA.
      #4) DR Salah Abdel Hameed Mohammad,P.O.Box 5805,Riyadh 11432,SAUDI ARABIA
      #5) Khairil Azwan Malim Jaafar, No 5, Building 18A, Ismail Abazah Street, 11461
      Sayeda Zeinab, Cairo, EGYPT.
      #6) Au Tat Fung, Rm 24A, Gosse Building, 2 Highgate Street, Fullarton, Adelaide, S.A. 5063, Australia.

      STEP 2: Now Take The #1 Name Off The List That You See Above,
      Move The Other Names Up (6 Becomes 5, 5 Becomes 4, Etc…) And Add
      YOUR Name As #6 On The List.

      STEP 3:Change Anything You Need To, But Try And Keep This Article As Close To
      The Original As Possible. Now, Post Your

      Ammended Article To At Least 200 Newsgroups. (I Think There Are Close To 24,000
      Groups). All You Need Is 200, But

      Remember,The More You Post, The More Money You Make!

      **EVERYBODY AROUND THE WORLD CAN DO IT,BUT REMEMBER TO PUT ENOUGH POSTAGE STAMP
      (S) ON YOUR

      ENVELOPES!!!**

      This Is Perfectly Legal! If You Have Any Doubts, Refer To Title 18 Sec. 1302 &
      1341 Of The Postal Lottery Laws. Keep A

      Copy Of These Steps For Yourself And Whenever You Need Money, You Can Use It
      Again And Again. BUT PLEASE

      REMEMBER, That This Program Remains Successful Because Of The Honesty And
      Integrity Of The Participants And By Their

      Carefully Adhering To The Instructions. Look At It This Way; If You Are Of

      Computer Or Hard Copy And Keep The

      Notes

      Subject: Make Thousands of Dollars Within Weeks With Only An Initial Investment
      of .00! NEW GUARANTEED METHODS

      Hello, My Friends..

      I Found This Mail On A Bulletin Board And Decided To Try It.

      You Can Make Thousands Of Dollars Within Weeks With Only An Initial Investment
      Of .00!

      So I Thought, "Yeah Right, This Must Be A Scam",
      But Like Most Of Us, I Was Curious, So I Kept Reading. Anyway, It Said That You
      Send .00 To Each Of The 6 Names And

      Addresses Stated In The Article.
      You Then Place Your Own Name And Address At The Bottom Of The List
      At #6, And Post The Article To At Least 200 Newsgroups.
      (There Are Thousands). No Catch, That Was It. So After Thinking
      It Over And Talking To A Few People At First, I Thought About Trying
      It.
      I Figured "What Have I Got To Lose Except 6 Stamps And .00,
      Right?".
      Then, I Invested The Measly .00.

      Well, GUESS WHAT!!!! Within 7 Days,
      I Started Getting Money In The Mail!!!
      I Was Shocked. I Figured It Would End Soon, But The Money
      Just Kept Coming In. In My First Week, I Made About 5.00.
      By The End Of The Second Week,I Had Made A Total Of Over 000.00!!
      In The Third Week, I Had Over 0,000 And Its Still Growing. This Is Now My
      Forth Week And I Have Made A Total Of Just

      Over 2,000 And Its Still Coming In Rapidly. Its Certainly Worth .00 And 6
      Stamps, I’ve Spent More Than That On The

      Lottery!!

      STEP 1:Get 6 Separate Pieces Of Paper And Write The Following On Each Piece Of
      Paper:
      "PLEASE PUT ME ON YOUR MAILING LIST". Now Get 6 US .00 Bills And Place ONE
      Inside Each Of The 6 Pieces Of Paper So

      The Bill Will Not Be Seen Through The Envelope (To Prevent Thievery). Next,
      Place One Paper Inside EACH Of The 6

      Envelopes And Seal Them. MAKE SURE
      THERE IS ENOUGH POSTAGE ON YOUR ENVELOPES.

      You Should Now Have 6 Sealed Envelopes, Each With A Piece Of Paper
      Stating The Above Phrase, Your Name And Address, And A .00 Bill.
      What You Are Creating Is A Service. THIS IS ABSOLUTELY LEGAL!
      You Are Requesting A Legitimate Service And You Are Paying For It! Like Most Of
      Us, I Was A Little Skeptical And A Little

      Worried About The Legal Aspects Of It All.

      So I Checked It Out With The US Post Office (1-800-725-2161)And
      They Confirmed It Is Indeed Legal! Mail The Six Envelopes To The
      Following Addresses:

      #1) T. Gray, 72 Broadleaf Avenue, Bishops Stortford,
      Herts., CM23 4JZ, United Kingdom
      #2) J. Fugate P.O.Box 6638 Evansville, In 47719-0638
      #3) M. Sadique, BB-G-9 Jln 4/14B, Pandan Indah 55100, KL, MALAYSIA.
      #4) DR Salah Abdel Hameed Mohammad,P.O.Box 5805,Riyadh 11432,SAUDI ARABIA
      #5) Khairil Azwan Malim Jaafar, No 5, Building 18A, Ismail Abazah Street, 11461
      Sayeda Zeinab, Cairo, EGYPT.
      #6) Au Tat Fung, Rm 24A, Gosse Building, 2 Highgate Street, Fullarton, Adelaide, S.A. 5063, Australia.

      STEP 2: Now Take The #1 Name Off The List That You See Above,
      Move The Other Names Up (6 Becomes 5, 5 Becomes 4, Etc…) And Add
      YOUR Name As #6 On The List.

      STEP 3:Change Anything You Need To, But Try And Keep This Article As Close To
      The Original As Possible. Now, Post Your

      Ammended Article To At Least 200 Newsgroups. (I Think There Are Close To 24,000

      I’m a bass player myself, so dont take this joke personally 😛

      It’s little Johnny’s 14th birthday, and his dad buys him a funky Ibanez bass and arranges bass lessons for him.

      After his first lesson, his dad asked him what he had learned that day."I learned the first 5 notes on the E string dad!".The father replied that it was good.

      After his secondlesson, his dad asked him again what he had learned that day."I learned the first 5 notes on the A string dad!".The father was quite pleased.

      Later that week, Johnny went for his third lesson, only to return home as drunk as hell. His dad furiously asked where the hell he had been.He replied in a classic drunk voice: "Sorry dad, I couldnt make it to my lessons, I had a gig!"

      Enjoy!

      About 25 years ago I had all of my pedals mounted in a box and patched togehter with short cables. One night in the middle of a set my guitar went dead. In quick desparation, I pulled my guitar cord out of the first pedal and plugged it straight into the front of my amp – this gave me an A/B comparison realtime, up loud in a gig situation. IT SOUNDED SO GOOD THAT I’VE NEVER PLUGGED MY GUITAR INTO ANYTHING BUT THE FRONT OF MY AMP SINCE!

      : i got a IBANEZ CHORUS AND FLANGER, IBANEZ TRASHMETAL, IBANEZ CLASSIC METAL, IBANEZ ECHO MACHINE, IBANEZ PHASER,AND A PROEL WAH-WAH, SO HOW CAN I PUT THEM TO SOUND BETTER?WRITE PLEASE

      What kind of guitar are you stringing up? & strings have a fundamental problem. The low b can’t resonate properly without a sound chamber. This is compensated (or at least tried) with the pick ups. I own a solid body 7 string I have tried a crapload of pickups. The best were DiMarzio Evolution. It doesn’t have great mids but none do. To capture your mids, use a heavy gage string. I use 13 gage but a 12 will do. This is realy the only way I found to boost mi mids without beind too trebely or muddy. Also put an eq right before your amp.

      Hope this helps.

      Hi,
      First what kind of distortion are you trying to get? A Mesa and a Bassman are gonna distort in very different ways.
      Assuming you stick with the Bassman there are a couple of options:
      1. Modify the amp and put a master volume control. This will allow the PREAMP to distort at low volumes but not the power amp.
      2. Buy an attunater like the THD Hotplate or the Marshall Powerbrake. This controlls volume after the power stage so you can hear the sweet power tube distortion. No mods are necessary. I would stay away from the Marshall powerbrake cause it has a reputation for blowing output tranys. I own a hotplate and I(and my neighbors) Love it.
      3. Save your cash and get a high gain amp like a Mesa, Rivera, or Soldano. (This is what I did when my Bassman wasn’t cutting it.

      Hop this helps!

      I am looking at the scematic right now. Unfortunatly it is in a book I have called "The Tube Amp Book 4.1th edition" by Aspen Pittman. I highly recomend this book if you plan to work on amps. I would send the schematic to you but I do not have a scanner.

      I am currently playing with a 60’s mostrite bass. In my band I am competing with 2 half stack guitar set ups. Now when we play live there is no problem ( being hooked up to the sound system and all) however in practice with my 8X10 ampeg cabinet and a 600 watt Acoustic head being driven by a Fender side-kick practice amp, I can still, barely come through in the overall sound! Could someone plaese help me to find the ulimate set-up! I don’t care if I’m too loud because a least in that respect I can always turn the volumne down, I would just prefer to have the most kick-ass set-up. I’ve been told that everything from "Ampeg" to "Galien Kruger" is the way to go, but I need solid facts!! Recently I purchased another speaker cabinet, 4×10 Ampeg pro series to go with my 8×10 set up and it is helping but I’m not entirely sold on the "Acoustic" head! An d please no info on"SWR", been there done that. By the way my band plays staight forward Rock & Roll to give further info on the sound and quality I’m shooting for!

      So basically, please fill me in on the "Best" set up ever!!! By the way I play with my fingers and I have an awfully heavy hand. My goal is to have the Punchiest, Warmest, Fattest sound ever like the sounds produced by Eric Avery of Jane’s Addiction, Chris Novaselich of Nirvana, John Paul Jones of Zepplin & Jeff Ament of Pearl Jam!

      Would any one recomend Matamp (Green) or Orange to be the end-up be all of heaviness?

      And what about the ultimate dilemma between Solid State vs. Tubes!!??

What kind of speakers are in the cabinet?This could be caused by several things.A strong head with weak speakers will "break up" easier.Also,bass amps are wired differently for the bass guitar.Example,if you use a 35 watt guitar amp,the bassist might need about 60 watts to keep up with you and the cymbles(Tenor instruments).I’d get a good guitar amp instead.
      Hope this helps

      Simulating an amp’s natural distortion is a tough thing
      to do.Played a Marshall JCM 900 & 800.SMOKIN’!! My Carvin head blazes like an inferno.But to be practical,
      I’ll combine O.D.s and Dist. boxes to spare myself a hernia.

      What’s the difference between steel, brass, silk/steel and other strings? I have used silk coated steel strings and brass, and my B and E (bottom two) strings are steel, but I don’t see any difference between them. Is there anything I’m missing?

      And why can’t you use nylon strings on some acoustic guitars, and you can’t use steel strings on others?

      I have a BR-8 myself and my tips is to sync it with a software sequencer and just rerecord the sounds on the harddisc conected with midi and thru optical in or just ordinary aux in. This way every file will get synced and you can master it all down nad burn it on cd. I do su myself. I use cubase and I master with Wavelab, sometimes soundforge. It works perfectly.

        I just found this info at this URL: http://www.musiciansbuy.com/boss_br-8_recording_studio.htm For PC software to upload your Zip files to your computer to burn CD’s and MP3’s- call Roland Product Support at 1-323-890-3741 and they will email you the ‘beta’ software. I’m thinking of buying a BR-8 and was researching this question myself. Obviously, you could also output the stereo mix from the BR-8 to your aux in, but that will introduce an analog generational loss. Note that the BR-8’s Zip drive has only enough space for 50 track minutes. That’s a five minute song with the mixdown present, or six minutes of just the 8-track masters. Remember that all of those virtual tracks use up space, too. Tom

      Howdy,
      http://www.orange-amps.com is the website for their current amps. Not much info can be found on their early stuff which is far superior.
      Orange amps were an "up market" alternative to Marshall,similar to Hiwatt, and sold out of a store by the same name owned by Matthew Mathias and Cliff Cooper in the late 60’s. Matamps were the same as Orange but marketed and sold in the north of Great Brittain. They are known for their use of top quality components and insane attention to detail. The first amps were the Graphic 80 and 120(my personal favs!). They did not have a master volume and came in head or combo versions. Later the Overdrive 120 was introduced. This had a master and is probably their most famous.(This was arguably the first amp with a master volume) They also has a 1×12 combo called a Hustler(40 watts), 2×12 combos based off the graphic and overdrive, 4×12 cabs, and a reverb unit. Orange also made pa gear and turntables. They went out of business in the late 70’s.
      In 1993 Gibson bought the Orange name and began producing amps. The models are similar but not as durable as the older stuff.Depending on where you live Orange amps are difficult to impossible to find. You can find some on the web but they go for around 000 US dollars. I would suggest getting an older model. They sound better and are a little less expensive.

      Hope this helps!

      Sounds like it could be an Airline guitar which is a plastic bodied guitar with that ln around it,with either two or three big single coil pickups (they look just like ‘buckers but they’re not). they were made in several shapes including that curvy les paul shape,and a more angular one,as used by the guitarist from Calexico. They have no ID’ing marks on them with few exceptions. These guitars have a superb tone,quite a trebly surfy sorta sound,akin to a more mid-y fender Jazzmaster. well worth 80.

      The tuner on the RP2000 just didn’t work well. At all.

      The Zoom GFX-8 is worth a look. It gets higher ratings from its users than any of the other modeling preamps including the GT-3 and POD. Just look at the user reviews at harmony-central.com.

      Most say that the distortion is better than the GT-3, The sound is more natural, and someone said it comes with a 3-year warranty.

      I’ll definitely check it out before considering the GT-3.

      Hi Ivan! I’m Ivan2

      I don’t have one but lo and behold I just got back from the music store comparing them.

      Both sounded good although I thought the GT-3 sounded just slightly better for some reason.

      The RP2000 can do the "stompbox mode" where the pedals will turn effects on/off. That’s nice but I didn’t see a way to get into this mode with reaching down and pushing a tiny button. I really don’t want to have to do this in a live situation.
      I didn’t see the stompbox mode on the GT-3. If it has it, it looks like it would have the same problem.

      The RP2000 has two "channels" on each preset. I liked this. There was some noticeable delay though between presets and less, though still some, between the channel switches. This bugs me because I may jump from a chord to a lead instantly and I don’t want a "moment of silence" cancelling some of my notes. The GT-3 may have had a little delay but it was marginally acceptable.

      Another thing that bothered me about the RP2000 was that though the pedals are the same distance center to center as the ones on the GT-3, they are wider and I found myself going into tuning or bypass mode when I just wanted to change the preset. I bumped around on the GT-3 a little also but there was no consequence like dropping the sound entirely.

      The GT-3 has a more straightforward layout with separate pedals for bank up/down. The RP2000 has you hold the bank up pedal to bank down and then it begins to scroll through the banks. Yikes.

      The RP2000 has no effects loop as does the GT-3. The effects loop might be a good place for your boxes.

      Overall, I prefered the GT3 for its pedal layout and sound although I kind of like the RP2000 wah and yahyah (and it has this talking thing I didn’t try but seems interesting).

      For live, I have to consider the pedal layout and the delay when switching between presets. If this doesn’t apply to you, the RP2000 has some neat features that the GT-3 doesn’t.

      Hope this helps.

      I played with a line 6 amp, (i think it was a flextone-pod built-in) and I thought that there was a lot of neat stuff on there, but I thought that some of it sounded sort of soulless, like most dimarzio pickups. I think that trent reznor uses one live, as do the guy from orgy and Kid Rock. If that’s what you’re going for, then do it. Otherwise, try it once, and if it sucks, you’ll know better next time. Good luck.
      Just don’t use the "kid rock" settings… ugh.

      Definatly put the Wah-Wah first.2)Distortion.3)Phasor.
      4)Flanger.5)Chrorus.6)Delay or Echo.7)Reverb.The order
      on your pedals will change your sound.But it’s usually best to have your delay last in the chain.It will delay
      everything before it.Fuzz first,to fuzz everything after it.Don’t be afraid to get ILL!!!

      Yes and yes.

      Soldanos are based off of the Marshall JCM era. I think Soldanos are the most underrated amps ever. I own 2 soldano’s and want more! They are a bit pricy but worth it. The Atomic is an affordable soldano. About 20 Watts of pure tone. This is almost the exact circuit of a marshall jcm800 with el84s. This is my favorite amp of all time.

      Hope this helps!

      Hey,
      Grooved Tubes numbers their tubes 1-10. The lower the number, the higher the gain. They are a bit more expensive then other tubes but I think they are better. What kind of amp are you using?
      Also, try a quality boost pedal(I use a zvex super hard on. It makes my el84s sing!) or hotter pickups.

      Depending on the amp a rebias should run you between 20 to 60 us dollars.

      Hope this helps!

      What kind of amp are you using? Does it have an effects loop? If it does, put your phaser and mayb e your chorus through the loop. There really is no rule about what order the pedals should go. The wah should be the first in line or else it will not be as effective. I would go: Guitar; wah; either distortion; echo; amp; then the other two in your loop. You may want to get an eq and put it at the end(after echo) to compensate signal lost. When you use many pedals, you will, lose some of your signal. What kind of guitar do you use?

      Hello

      I am from Central Iowa and am in a band named One Trick Pony. We recently bought a Boss BR-8 to record our demo with. I think that the recording ability with this thing is amazing. Anyway, we have one song recorded on a zip disk. My question to you is how do we get it on to a cd? I have a burner on my home computer, and i have a zip drive. But when I put the recording on my zip drive in my computer all that pops up is a bunch of files for effects for each song and stuff like that. Do I need some sort of software for my computer? Can you please help?

      Thank you

      I’m also a strat player and I use 11’s currently. You’ll want to add 1 or two springs to the tremelo block as well. It aids in tuning, and keeps the guitar in tune while playing a bent note along with a static note. ‘nuther tip, raise your bridge pickup a bit to capture a gut wrenching lead tone.

      Saw a guitar in a pawn shop which was red with a white plastic strip around the edge; no distinguishing marks on headstock or elsewhere. Has twin flat-topped humbuckers, two tone pots/two vol pots PLUS two slide-switches next to bridge p/u. Kinda like a Les Paul shape, but more curvaceous, incl sculpted edges on the body, and with a funky whammy-bar setup right by the butt end of the guitar. If ANYONE has any idea what this puppy is, lemme know – I’m seriously considering payin’ the 80 they’re asking, even tho’ it’s a long shot that it’s worth that. Dozy clerk in the pawn shop reckons it’s sixties vintage. Any ideas?

      : Is it loud enough? I’ve always thought that the Valvestates sound great but don’t pack the 100w wallop of tubes.

      It’s plenty loud. I’m not so sure about the reliability though mine went out on me about 6 months ago and I still haven’t got it working right yet. Sounds like it has a strange chorus effect going on or something

      Hey man,
      I don’t understand why blocking your trem will affect intonation. My rose has 12-52’s, and although I needed to steal an extra tremelo spring, and the neck is as tight as I dare to wind it, the intonation is spot on.
      I would hazard a guess and say you should check the neck relief and string height, or take it to a specialist. I think you should still be able to work your trem with 11’s, it just needs a proper set-up for them.
      Hope I said something useful!

        Sorry, no answer here. I’m looking for similar info myself. I’m totally irritated with my floyd. How can I keep other strings from going flat when I bend? I was thinking of blocking the pullback and making the springs super-tight, but that seems extreme. I’m not a tremolo expert, but I know that my old Kahler never had this problem. I don’t see why everyone says floyds are the best. Help me understand. Thanks.

      Joe, thanks for your reply. A good question! How old is it? I’ve seen one on a website in W. Virginia which is 599.
      Of course, on top of that, I have to add shipping / insurance, and then UK Customs add on another 21%!
      I’m really looking for one a bit cheaper than that.

      An accoustic will give you a more intimate feel for
      the resonating natural sound. The electric will push
      you to the level where power meets technique.
      Bottom line: It’s a matter of personnal taste.
      Go with your gut and decide what’s right for you.
      God bless and happy picking.

      it’s a half inch deeper than a gibson which produces a wicked tone
      and it has an inlay done to perfection and i do mean perfection!!!
      unfortunatly i have no info on this guitar except
      that the last 3 numbers in the stamp on the inner block of maple are 001.
      iv’e looked everywhere for another to no avail
      if someone knows how i can find out more about this guitar let me know.

      the next time your shopping do yourself a favor don’t just walk by the tursers
      try them out you might get as lucky as i did

      My first thought was you’ve got to be kidding!!!!!
      My next thought was a 59 Les Paul being called a
      stupid old guitar is like calling the Hope diamond
      a stupid old rock or the Taj Mahal a dumb old building.
      You have taken one of the most collectable electric
      guitars on the planet, defaced it, reduced it’s value
      by heaven only knows how much. This is not only a
      valuable collectable, it’s a family heirloom. You’re
      cavalier attitude toward your father’s feelings and
      his desire to pass this beautifully maintained guitar
      (by your own description) to someone he obviously
      loved, tells me that you not only gave up your right
      to the ownership of the guitar but that you should
      probably give up guitar completely (including playing).
      Learn a lesson from this and remember that a guitar is
      much more valuable in it’s original state, regardless
      of the condition. Forgive me if I sound harsh but this
      was a major ‘boner’. We’ve all made dumb mistakes in
      our teens but you pulled the ‘Grand Prize’ and lived to
      tell about it. I would recommend that you go to your
      father, tell him that you didn’t realize the gravity of
      your mistake, apologize, and ask if there is anyway you
      could ever make it up to him.
      I wish you the best but if recent history is any indication of you’re future, your chances of reaching
      fifteen are looking very dim.

      i’ve had the 100R for quite a while now, and i still love it. the effects you can get from it are excellent. overdr2 gives some cool distortion effects and it doesn’t sound crappy, even at some high vol’s.
      its not too spendy but worth the spend.

      Hi Julie! Some dilemna! Can’t get started without
      a guitar and can’t pick a guitar if you’re not
      sure what to look for. You’re best bet would be to
      find an experienced picker to help you find what
      you are looking for. If you have time to look
      around, you may find a good used guitar at a good
      price. Washburn, Epiphone, Yahama, and Takamine
      are good guitars for the money, when looking at
      new guitars (50 to 00 range). Anything less
      is likely to be junk (difficult to play and poor
      sounding. Play it before you buy it!
      Happy hunting.

      Ibanez and ESP make some good guitars for beginners.
      Brian is correct however.Strat style axes don’t really
      shred as well as humbucking axes.You have to push them
      hard and the single coils are noisey.Also, I’d stay away from locking tremelos for now.Tuning can be very tricky.If it’s crunch you want,then cruncher axe you should get.
      Good Luck

      : Hey, I am 15 years old and looking for a good guitar to start out with. I was looking at a Squier Standard Strat. It was recommended to me. Any help would be appreciated.

      It’s not a bad axe to start with but it really depends on what you are planning on playing. Remember it only has single coil pick-ups and 21 frets. It has a really nice blues sound but not very crunchy for the heavy rock stuff. You may look into some second hand stuff for better price. You may be able to get something from Ibanez or Fernandez etc. But look for a heavier body for resonance a 22 to 24 fret neck and a double coil pick up for the hearvy rock stuff.

      I use a JCM 800 50W combo. I play a contemporary strat with a double coil pick-up. I can’t seem to get enough crunch even with the gain and volume cranked, and a Boss Super Overdrive pedal. Any advice would be welcome–effects, tubes, pick-ups, tune-ups, etc. I don’t want to change the sound of my amp, just the gain.

      thanks very much people, i tried out a line6 flextone today and it was pretty good. But i realistically think i’d prolly only use the rectified and tweed settings. But i think the nomad could do better distortion, cause its mesa, and also nail a nice clean sound, also cause its mesa! I think i’m gonna go with the nomad, or certainly try it out when it gets into brisbane anyway.

      I heard a band play a month ago, their guitarist used a nomad 4×10 and a danelectro. Sounded nice! It’s a very versatile amp. I think you’ll never use all the sounds in the line 6… it’s almost too versatile. For your money, get the nomad, which does what you need it to do with a bit more style!

      : I fiddled around with a line 6 and I liked it. I saw one of their AX2’s with a floorboard on ebay for about 00 (US). I would get something with clean and distorted channels, I think that real amp distortion sounds better than most pedals. You can get a whole bunch of sound out of a higher-end line 6, like, 30-something amps (some just sound like EQ presets to me, but still) and a shitload of effects. A good tube amp would be a worthy investment too though. I think you’d be solid either way.

      You should go to these sites:
      http://www.stewmac.com <—– Guitar building supply (they’re about to get a LOT of money from me… ouch.)
      http://www.mimf.com <—– Music Instrument Maker’s Forum, free to join, and absolutely full of information, and if you can’t find something, just ask, someone will either answer you or direct you to where you can find the answer. I would also check out http://www.warmoth.com as they make bodies/necks, and they sell other stuff, too.

      I would recommend Melvyn Hiscock’s book, too. I’m sure I mis-spelled his name and I don’t remember the name of the book, either, something like "building your own electric guitar". You can find it at Stew Mac, or even barnes and noble (ick). Any other help you need, just write me or ask here. Good luck and have fun. I didn’t build my own neck last time ( I am this time), but it was still a hugely rewarding process.

      : I use an Acoustasonic Jr. with my Taylors, and , depending on the mics I use, I’m very happy with it. I have found that it’s not all that great with maple bodied guitars when micked tho. I don’t use a pickup as a rule, but I tried the amp using an old Lawerence one time and was suprised at the sound, not bad. Good luck in your search. Another thing that works if you have the room and the roadies to carry it all is a good Yamaha mixer with some "serious" speakers. Otherwise, the Jr. is probably just what you’re looking for.

      I’ll tell you what happened to this site… it was overwhelmed by immature children who have nothing better to do in their lives but use a guitar message to build up their insecure egos. They constantly write these stupid, irrelevant messages, only convincing us more and more of their true stupidity. They bash on other aspiring guitarists in hopes of discouraging those who would succeed in areas where they have obviously failed. Being on this message board, I now expect the replies of senseless insults as given to "Amanda", but their words are nothing more than the illogical words of neanderthals…and they will be taken as nothing more than that. I’m hoping everyone will do the same (if you haven’t already), especially those aspiring musicians out there who are only looking for some guidance. Thanks for your time…

      : : Just watched a Neil Young concert on Directv. What am I missing? This guy is touted as some form of superstar, yet he plays guitar worse than an amateur and his entire performance is sloppy. His guitar solos are completely uninspired, mostly single notes that he strums as hard as he can, sometimes breaking strings. When he plays these solos, he dances around like a maniac, really believing he is playing inspired licks, yet if you take away all his theatrics and just listen to the notes, he’s basically playing crap. Is it just me, or has this guy put one over on the music industry? WHAT PATHETIC DRIVEL, GO TO BED.

      OK, you made your point, you don’t like Neil Young……. nothing new! Me, I’ve been a fan of him since 1972 or so, and I allways seem to meet two sorts of people: those who love his voice, and others that hate him…… it’s very personal I guess, nothing you can do about it….. the same with his guitar playing, technical spoken it is not very impressive, I agree, but if you can’t hear the FEEL he’s putting in his solo’s, thaen there must be something wrong with your ears…. personaaly I hate the guys who can play 30 notes in a second and make the guitar sound so icecold….. there is allways this contradiction between technique and feeling, and there are not much guitarists who can make the golden road between them

      Hello, I am a beginner to the electric guitar, though I have been playing acoustic for god knows how long. Anyway, I have a California Fat Strat and a Fender Frontman 25R. I recently bought two new pedals: the Danecho (expensive, but I absolutely love it) and a BOSS DS-2 (Turbo Distortion). I am somewhat disappointed with the BOSS–too much tin in the sound and not enough variation for my experimental tastes. Furthermore, it doesn’t combine well at all with the Danecho–it doesn’t give the edge I was looking for. I have a chance to return the BOSS (I only paid 0 bucks for it, which I know is a good deal), but am unsure what I should do. I want to get a Yo La Tengo kind of sound, with lots of delay (which is taken care of with the Danecho) but also a kind of poppy overdrive kind of effect that I cannot figure out. Ira Kaplan (Yo La Tengo’s guitarist) doesn’t really use too much distortion (which is taken care of very nicely by my amp anyway), so I am wondering what to do. Should I go for an equalizer, a compressor/sustainer, a chorus, or an overdrive? I need something with boost, but that also maintains the warm tone of my guitar. I do like the Danelectro sound, and have been researching the new minis a lot. I guess I’m a sucker for pop tones, but with the experiemental side of guitarists like Kaplan, Nels Cline, Lee Ranaldo, and Thurston Moore. I’m really new at this whole effects thing, so any help would be greatly appreciated.
      Thanks in advance,
      Ben

      could it be, this setup is too distorted for "crunch"? i guess, You shouldn’t turn up the pre-amp gain higher that 4.

      Currently I am using a contemporary strat and a JCM 800 50 watt combo. I can’t really get the crunch that I am looking for. I use a BOSS super overdrive and that helps but I’m still not satisfied. By the way the strat does have a double coil pick up. Any ideas for a better over drive effect, tubes, pick ups etc. Thanks for the help.

      Holy shit??!! You use a 60 for low E?
      I totally agree that big strings make big sounds. There’s something to be said for the amount of commitment it takes to get SRV speed out of fencing wire…

      Peace!

      : I’ve been playing guitar for over 27 years and I agree with heavier strings. The tone is much better, chords are cleaner and with a little time, you will adjust. I use 11,15,19,30,42,60 on my strat. By the way, the 60 is a bass string. The ball is to big to fit in the block, but it can hang out of the bottom. It works just fine. I’ve been using this set for years. Earnie Ball….. The Hybrid 10-52s are good also. I use them on my Tele… Most of all, have fun and enjoy yourself; Thats the ticket to being good. Have fun….. P.S. I tune to E flat on my Strat…..

      my daddy gave me his old electric guitar.he said it’s
      over 40 year old,it belong to his father,he said it’s
      a 59 gibson les caul,les paul something like that.
      anyway he gave it to me on my birtday, I turn 14 last
      week. I’m learning to play sugar,sugar by the archies,
      only been playing for 3weeks. the guitar had these weird faded stripes in the wood and had this black to
      golden yellow paintjob, I also notice it had no nicks
      and scraches on it, I remenber he keep it in his
      bedroom closet and never played it but would often
      take the guitar out and polish it. He act liked
      he loved the stupid guitar. I still don’t know why?
      a week later I decided to paint it, so I sanded it
      and painted it pink and wrote sugar, sugar all over
      it in yellow. I loved that song. It looked hot!
      since I join an all girl rock band It should fit
      the bill. A few days later the girl came over to
      practice down stairs. We had a wonderful time.
      we’re playing sugar, sugar and my daddy came down
      to listen. when he saw me playing he smiled and ask
      me why Iam not playing the guitar he gave me. I told
      him I was. He looked at my pride and joy then looked
      at me. he look white as a ghost and then turn beet red. I said does’nt it look cool daddy! Then he started
      to cry and ran up stairs. Mom and I don’t know why
      he’s mad. It’s just an old stupid guitar anyway.
      pleases, could anybody tell me why he would be so
      upset? He has’nt talk to me for days, I need help.

Just the way this was worded should show you all that this is no 14 yr old girl. If she didn’t know what a les paul was, she certainly wouldn’t have spell les with only one s. This is one bored pathetic person, who needs to spice up a bullentin board for amusements sake. take care all.

      Get off the computer and let the well behaved guitar players of this "Backstreet Boy" musical generation develop and trade ideas to which they will profit from everyday. You my son, love the attention to which everyone is giving you. Therefore, those guitar lessons I’ve payed for so dearly hav’nt done you any justice to your ego or your self motivation to continue in the musical field. I’m sorry Robert.

      Proper string height (Gibson specs from when they made them in Kalamazoo) is as follows: with the neck properly adjusted (that is straight, no "relief") it should be at the 12th fret, 3/64" for the high E, and 5/64" for the low E. Les Paul Customs were to be at 3/64" and 4/64", all in keeping with their nickname of "Fretless Wonder".

      Don’t try to adjust the height at the nut unless you know what you’re doing…let a pro at a shop do that part.

      Hey Rick,
      I can’t believe it, you didn’t call me a few names! Well, a Jag sounds like, well think beach boys, thin sounding, and I want something else more on the tone side. Bill lawerence pups seem like just the ticket, and the price I couldn’t believe! If they were good enough for Roy Bucannon they should be fine for me. I’ve decieded to go with a "fixed" bridge #0577 in the StewMac catalog. I’m getting to work on the body this week, so I can start figuring where the bridge will mount because of the Strat 25.5" scale. It will indeed be a different guitar.

      Thanks for the links,

        : HOW DO EMG PICKUPS RATE WITH ALL THE OTHER PICKUPS? I put EMG pickups in my American Strat 10 yrs. ago and I have never regretted it. The sound is awesome from crystal clear to down and dirty; tapping clarity is fantastic. Active pickups have advantages over passive. Of course, no pickup can overcome an amp that sucks.

      To my ears all of the Boss Distortion pedals have a raspy, non musical distortion. Personally, I prefer the Rat or a Electro Harmonix Big muff.
      But really, it’s your pedal and if it gets the sound you want, no one’s opinion matters. If you’re still unsatisfied, go try those two out and maybe an ibanez Turbo Tube Screamer.

      : Hey Justin: Here goes! I’ll give you a song to listen to also to give an idea of the effect.
      Bass Balls and Envelope filters are like automatic wah pedals. Listen to "Higher Ground" by the Red Hot Chili Peppers. That is an envelope filter on bass but it gives you an idea. Bwow-Bwow.
      Flangers and Phasers are different flavors of a similar effect. A good phasing sound is "Nobody’s Fault But Mine" By Led Zeppelin in the intro.
      A good flanger would be "Lithium" or "Scentless Apprentice" by Nirvana. Or "Ain’t No Right" by Jane’s Addiction in the choruses.
      The Octave pedals do two things: give you the fat lower octave sound like "Fool in The Rain"(Solo part)
      by Zeppelin or High Octave Fuzz like Hendrix at the end of "Purple Haze". It synthesizes another note.
      With a Whammy pedal, you can slide up and down octaves by rocking your foot. Rage uses this in "Killing in The Name". Most octave pedals only do one or the other, whammy does both plus harmonizing.
      Overdrive, Blues Driver other distortions: You’re simply going to have to check these out for yourself.
      There are thousands of varaiations on the distortion theme, each that are good and many that really suck(no matter what MTV idiots they put in the ad.) Overdrives tend to push your amp harder(primarily a tube amp) and are more responsive to your playing. A Blues Driver or Tube Screamer will give you a musical, but not super raspy distortion plus some volume boost. Fuzz Boxes give Smashing Pumpkins style distortion, but also can give that misquito sound on "Satisfaction" by the Rolling Stones. A Rat or a Metal Zone will give you a more dry sounding, midrangey distortion.

      The erogenous moan is a cool pedal meant to simulate a backwards guitar. This pedal provides a volume swell as you rock the pedal. It’s tough get it to work, but it sounds good. Think "Are you expeienced" by Hendrix.
      That sucking sound is the beautiful sound of analog tape turned over. The Guyatone Slow Volume does the same type of thing.

      One more thing about about distortion. Many bands get their distortion from tube amps, not from pedals. Some get it from a combination of pedals/preamps and distortions. Sometimes tube amps respond better to having a hot input signal(guitar to pedals to amp)than a soild state amp. There’s nothing wrong with soild state amps, and if you mess around with combinations of pedals, volume and EQ you should be able to come up with your own tone. Good luck man. it can be frustrating as hell. Because sometimes what sounds good by itself, stinks with a band and vice versa.
      I hope this helps. Post other questions if you have ’em!

The one I found that gives me that hard crunching sound is the DOD Death Metal. With a few twists of the knobs it delivers a variety of distortions. Other than that, I run directly into the amp’s distortion and crank it.

      I’ve been playing guitar for over 27 years and I agree with heavier strings. The tone is much better, chords are cleaner and with a little time, you will adjust. I use 11,15,19,30,42,60 on my strat. By the way, the 60 is a bass string. The ball is to big to fit in the block, but it can hang out of the bottom. It works just fine. I’ve been using this set for years. Earnie Ball….. The Hybrid 10-52s are good also. I use them on my Tele… Most of all, have fun and enjoy yourself; Thats the ticket to being good. Have fun….. P.S. I tune to E flat on my Strat…..

People who say that they don’t fit together are obviously overlooking the fact that they all have very similar roots, in music history, as well as in music theory. I gotta try that "amp in the bathroom" idea.

      Thanx man. I appreciate that. On "Mister Bad Luck" the lead tone is from a 5150 and a Vox Wah. I have it set up thru the clean input with a low gain setting. The guitar is a Fender 60’s Reissue with DiMarzio Virtual Vintage pickups. From neck to bridge: Blues, Heavy Blues, and Solo. The funk guitar lines were plugged into a bass pre-amp right into the board. I used a stock Fender 70’s Reissue for that. During the bridge section it was the 60’s reissue with a Dunlop Rotovibe and a bit of delay to get that dreamy quality. On the song "Better Off" it’s the 60’s Reissue again and a Peavey Classic 50 4X10. We put the amp in my producer’s bathroom and miked to death. Front, back, and even on in the shower. We also ran a line out from the amp to the board. That was the lead tone which I played dry with a lot of treble. We added a bit of reverb later during the mix. For the rhythm I plugged straight into the board with a Yamaha SBG2000 using both push push pots to get that inbetween thing from both pickups. I popped in the Rotovibe and a bit of delay just for the turnaround section. That’s basically it. So what did you think of the other tunes? Do you think they all fit together as a complete CD? I have three tunes to go. A blues funk tune, rhumba, and a slow blues. Let me know.

      I’m an old fart rebuilding my 66 Jaguar, I’m using a Maple Strat neck, Jag body. I’m gonna use 2 humbuckers and I’m trying to decide on a bridge. I don’t want to spend a fortune on this project, but I don’t want junk either. The Lawerence name sounds familar, but I don’t know anything about them. I quit playing guitar in the early 70’s, got alot of catching up to do.
      Any Ideas?

      Bite me bob.

      : I just bought a Jackson with a dbl locking tremolo on it and Im not too fimiliar with these things. When tuning from e to d and so on, do I need to loosen any of the clamps or anything. Would an EVH D Tuna be a good investment?

      OK, what you need to do is get an allen key (u might have one at the back fo the neck and undo the clamp at the top of the fretboard. then tune as normal. As for the d-tuna, personally if u play a lot of d-tuned stuff, as well as the regular it is worth getting, but look around, i got one on my kramer, but otherwise they are around £36. I might be able to get hold of one fairly cheap though. email.

      Check out a my tunes and tell me what you think. I’m putting this together as part of a CD. I get the feeling that the music is too eclectic and doesn’t have enough same-ness from song to song. I dig that kinda thing but I’m getting the general feeling that most people don’t. In my mind it’s all Blues but some people may feel you need to pick a style and to stick to only that. Let me know.

      : you probably should have adjusted the neck first instead of messing with the nut. apart fomr getting a new nut, which you may have to do…adjust the neck to add relief…take an allen wrench, turn it about 1/4 of the way, maybe less clockwise…seee if it helps…if it does but its not perfect, turn it alittle more. dont turn it more then mayne once around. if it doesnt do any good, try turning it counterclock wise.

      I got a spanish guitar about 6 months ago. i wasn’t used to the height of the strings and was playing only about 6 months. so i decided to get a file and file down the saddle and nut. Now i can’t play any notes at the 12 fret on high e. also can anyone tell me what kind of gauges to use. i curently have .13 on it. any feedback will be appreciated

      : Fender, Washburn, Sigma and Yamaha all make great acoustics for beginners. I’d sample all of them to see what you like best. Also ask abou getting a case and find out about the warranty. If you buy a used guitar, make sure the neck isn’t warped and that there are no major cracks in the body or neck. Don’t let salesmen at a store push you into a purchase.

      : RC: The best advice I can give you is to make up a list and go to the music store and check ’em out. Also, if possible use your guitar and an amp that is close or the same as yours. It is the only way to ensure that you get what you want. Plenty of pedals(especially distortion) are great in the shop, through a hot amp. But when you take it home to your 25 watt practice amp it sounds like crap.(of course I don’t know if you have a Marshall stack either, no offense meant).
      Many of the bands you mentioned, although pictured in ads with various pedals and things, don’t use those things on stage or in the studio. Many of those bands use hot rodded tube amps(Mesa Triple Rectifiers I believe) to get that punishing distortion sound. You’ll find the pedals you listed may not deliver the goods.
      Boss DS-1: Thin raspy distortion
      Boss Metal Zone: Thicker, more bottom heavy, but not well defined, can’t hear individual notes.
      DODDeath: Great in the bedroom, non-existant live.
      Multi-effects: Great way to get lots o’ pedals for cheap, but all the effects have a certain sound and it effects the guitar all the time if it’s plugged in.
      To get rid of this, you need more $.
      EQ: Great for dialing a distortion pedal to your liking, but won’t give you fuzz on it’s own.

      Also try a Pro-co Turbo Rat and a Big Muff. Both deliver awesome distortion in any setting.
      The Tech 21 XXL with a humbucking pick-up is good too.

      I hope this helps. I’ve got hundreds of pedals, so if you have any other questions, post ’em!

        I own this amp. It can get pretty darn loud in a bedroom. Although I haven’t tried it, I think that it’s loud enought to fill a dive bar or large coffee shop. Note, however, that Carvin almost instantly scaled the wattage up to 50 in the very next year of production of these amps. Still, you can find the 33 used and try it out, then if you need more power, get a matching cab for about the same differential price between the 33 and the 50. Hope this helps. Contact me if you have any more questions.

      One thing I would do is go play some electrics in your local music stores. Talk to some of the employees there it is their job to help you find what you need. Tell them the price range you want to spend and the style of music you play. They should point you in the right direction.

      Most of all just play everything you think you might like. I would start playing a strat by Fender. The Mexican ones are not that bad and tons cheaper than the Americans are. Squire strats aren’t bad but you have to play them before you buy. You might look into some simi-hollow body electrics.

      No, those locks are there to keep the strings from slipping out of tune when using the whammy. Keep it tight (but not too tight), you don’t want to crimp the strings. So you can HEAR how it works, loosen them and use the whammy bar, then strum a chord. You’ll hear how out of tune it is. Now, retune it and tighten the locks, use the whammy and then strum a chord. If everything is set-up right it will still be in tune. I hope this helps.

      Slammers are OK if you want a well built cheap starter. Some of them are better than others. As for them being plywood, I’m not sure I agree. The Archtop model is mahogany with a sick flametop for the money. The pickups will be weaker than you will probably want. Do not buy one if you plan to sink $ into better electronics. Just put it towards a USA model. They are a good value new and a steal used if you can find any. Hamer is so backed up now, finding a new one is hard. I own 4 USA models: Californian, Daytona, Diablo and Studio. I won’t play anything else. You can’t compare for the 4164380.

This has to be the most beautifully voiced guitar I ever played–I knew I had to have this as soon as I picked it up in the store. I even traded my CORT STRAT for it!!! No contest!! The pickup (this is a hybrid guitar) is by far superior to anything I ever heard, and as a straight accoustic, it ROCKS!!

      depending on what ur playing, especially on guitar, the most common freq’s are in the mids. its the nature of guitar. and the human ear also hears midrangy stuff better than other frequency’s so that would explain it. ur cab may well have a very nice resonating freq tho, which is good. and yes, i’m pretty sure everything has some resonance frequency, i think humans are around 9 or 7 herts. thats way below human hearing, which is 20-20,000.

      I was thinking about this the other day- do you think that everything has a resonant frequency? This is probably physics 101, but I have noticed that my Classic 20 seems to get a lot louder when I crank up the mids, even with the bass and treble rolled off completely. It sounds amazing, really cuts through the mix, especially when I crank the mids. I think this has to do with things like cabinet design, speaker design, etc. Do you think guitar amps should have a flat response? I don’t think so, my amp has so much more character than other, bigger amps I have tried. I think it has to do with it’s particular resonance, what do you think?

      I’ve recently bought a digital home recording studio and have been playing both rhythm and lead guitar parts
      on each song. Of course it’s a lot of fun, but I have come to realize that this method will stunt my musical growth somewhat as I have no-one to interface with or learn from. I do play out on occassion, but does anyone know of any method that encourages expression
      and increases skill other than playing along to CD’s
      or working out tabs ?
      PS: speaking of playing with myself, I’m not really anti Bob-the-Nob but aren’t we supposed to be talking about music ?

      : Ok, im completely new at the guitar, and ive been taken lessons a few months now, but i need some help here. WHat is "Hammering" and "pull-offs" when playing a guitar? And how do i tune my guitar One half step down? Id definatly appreciate some help!

      : My suggestion to ya is this: DON’T concern yourself with those "gimicks." YET. You have SO MUCH to learn,your time would be MUCH better spent practicing what your teacher wants you to learn. Tell him to show you some open chord scales. Practice them until you are DREAMING about playing those scales. That’s when YOU’LL know you are practicing enough,depending on your goal.

      lm2 has it right, but I was wondering, if you are a beginner, why do you want to know how to tune down a 1/2 step? I only do this with my 12 string to keep less tension on the neck. Just wondering.

      I agree, but consider this. Bob is not a musician at all. He just gets his jollies from pretending he is and screwing up other peoples fun. Don’t worry, he will get bored soon and go somewhere else. Just hang in there and don’t reply to any more of his or his cronies attemt at witticisms. ( like I just did, sorry)

      Don’t let anonymous shit stirrers like bob ruin your day. He is one of the many idiots that the nameless/faceless internet has unleashed. He is the guy in the music store who sits there and plays every Bush, Offspring, Creed (place trendy band name here)song that he knows. Maybe one of his powerful solos will cause an amp or guitar rack to fall and crush his godlike playing hand. Chances are he’d miss that hand for other "solos" he plays in his room.

      Only you can decide what sounds best to you. I have played thru several electric crate amps. They are not to bad. Play them side by side with YOUR guitar to make a decision if possible.

      Hammer-ons and pull-offs is a technique using your fretting hand. to hammer-on a note: fret a note with your pointer finger (picking as usual) and while the note
      is still ringing hammer-on another fret with your ring finger (do not pick).

      To pull off perform te above in reverse. Pick a note with your ring finger and pull off the string
      with the fleshy tip of your finger while fretting another note on the same string with your pointer.

      This technique is better when you have built up a calous on your finger tip. Ask your teacher to show you.

      As far as tuning down 1/2 step. This is equivalent to tuning your guitar one fret value lower. E flat, A flat, d Flat, G flat, B flat, E flat (low to high).
      You can get a tuner that has the option of flat tuning. Or you can do it by ear. Have your instructor show you this too.

      Good luck

      : Just watched a Neil Young concert on Directv. What am I missing? This guy is touted as some form of superstar, yet he plays guitar worse than an amateur and his entire performance is sloppy. His guitar solos are completely uninspired, mostly single notes that he strums as hard as he can, sometimes breaking strings. When he plays these solos, he dances around like a maniac, really believing he is playing inspired licks, yet if you take away all his theatrics and just listen to the notes, he’s basically playing crap. Is it just me, or has this guy put one over on the music industry? WHAT PATHETIC DRIVEL, GO TO BED.

      Quality is a debateable issue. Ibanez are made in Japan, while Gibsons are made in the USA. Most people believe that USA instruments are better than imports. I think your JEM is a 7 string, right? That’s a whole different animal. The value of the real JEMs is pretty high from what I have seen. Les Pauls cost more and hold their value- in the 2,000 -,000 range. JEMS are around a grand. Both hold their respective values pretty well. I have owned Gibson and Ibanez, and would take a high-end Ibanez over a Gibson. But only a high-end Ibanez (I would consider the JEM high end).

      Hey man,
      This is going to sound really awful, but you have to keep practising, it’s the only way to play like a pro. I don’t think there is any secret or magic word I could tell you that could solve your problem, except not to give up, and to practise untill it hurts. If you are playing diads, or two note power chords, try out different ways of choking any strings you aren’t playing. Think about how much pressure you really need to hold down a chord, making your life a little easier. Are you using enough distortion?! 🙂
      Don’t give up buddy, you’ll get there!

      If Hendrix was alive now he would get a chance to see me play and realise how shit he really was. I AM GOD. How anybody can even being nearly as good as me is stupid.

        It is quite obvious you do not have the brains that god gave you. No self repsecting guitar player has ever said Hendrix was shit. If anything Hendrix style was something to imulate. Hendrix started a music revoultion. Something you could never even come close too. Even if you tried .That is especially true if you stopped yanking your meat. Does you music get copied by many bands that went on to big stardom, I think not. Most people probably throw shit at you when you make a very crude attempt at guitar playing. I use the term loosely asshole. So, take your brains out of your asshole ,asshole and put them back into your head. No and not the one with the small head. IF YOU WERE SMART and it is quite obvious that you are not you would listen to Hendrix and realize that he is the master of guitar playing.

        I don’t know what yahoo said Hendrix was shit ,but theguy has his head up his ass. Obviously this total shitfor brains does not know the first thing about music. Hendrix was an orginal. He created a style that other are still trying to copy to this day. Many bands and guitar players took many of his playing technics. Many of Hendrix songs are still get air play. There are not too many guitar players that can say that. That title was only for a select few like Hendrix. Hedrix was way ahead of his time. Hendrix set the stage for many bands that followed.If you bothered to listen you would hear that.At least Hendrix had the balls to create a orginal song and was not a wannabee like alot of shit bands you have today. Wake up asshole and listen to the music and style that Hendrix played. You will hear a orginality that was truly his own.
