Anyone know where I can find the website for Acoustic? I’ve been going through pages of search engine results with no luck. Any page with info on the old 70’s amps would be helpful, I recently bought an Acoustic 360/361 and am looking for info on all the other amps they produced. Thanks a bunch.

Why would you want that wasted knowledge… ;<) From a dealer standpoint, every distributor sells them and they are all very similar, but I have never seen the maker’s name anywhere, probably a company in Indonesia or China… (duh!)

Does anyone know why shielded cable can’t be used for speaker wire?
-
August 1, 2001 at 9:29 pm #81595AnonymousGuest
Shielded cable doesn’t have the right resistance. Using it can lead to speaker/amp impedence mismatch, which could blow your amp. Quality speaker cable isn’t too much of a hassle (Klotz cable is excellent) though I’ve had to solder my own jacks, cos the places I got it didn’t have cable ready made up. I’ve heard that good mains cable (two wire) works as a substitute, but it’s better to be safe than sorry.

Can anyone help me id an old battered SG I’ve acquired for next to nothing? Its cherry (and looks like its been dragged behind a car – very cracked glaze too), has a small Les Paul style raised scratch plate and an embossed single coil black neck pick up set on a steel plate (rounded each side of pick up). It has an obvious replacement bridge (cheap Japanese affair) and obvious replacement bridge humbucker – not sure what original was. The controls (one vol and one tone) are set on a rounded steel plate (like with pick up), tele style, but with a toggle selector switch (n, n/b, b) on the same plate. Also, it has dot inlays on the rose wood board (mother of pearl type) and a gold printed Gibson logo on the headstock. The truss rod cover is plain black. The machines are replacements, so no clues there. It has made in the USA stamped on the back of the headstock (just indentation), but no serial number that I can see. Its got a lovely sound (I use it for slide), which is suprising when you see how it looks (although I love it). Someone once told me it was a cheap early 70s version, but I’m not sure. I’d love to find out!!!! Cheers, BBB

I was thinking about buying an EMG-81 and putting it in the bridge position on my Ibanez RG550. I was just wandering if any of you guys know of any pickups that are better than EMG. I am talking for Heavy metal, I like to use lots of harmonics and soloing…do you guys know of anything better than the EMG’s?

Hey there…for the type of stuff you want to play, the EMG81 would be a good choice. Have to make sure there’s room in the control cavity for a 9v battery though. I use an 81 in my Gibson SGX and the thing drives both tube and solid state amps pretty good. It’s also a good choice if you have a Floyd Rose on your Ibanez as there are no poles on the pickup to have to line up with strings.

well i have a jackson rhoads guitar with jackson pickups, i recently bought a pair of emg 81’s and 85’s and from the difference that my old pickups were, the emg’s are the best for heavy metal, i also play that kind of music, the emg’s are good for everything heavy, for example its awesome for harmonics, i didnt even know how to do harmonics but when i got the pickups it was so easy and for soloing its pretty good too cause u can here it so clearly and heavy

I saw an older ESP M III guitar at a local pawn shop listed for $200.00 without knowing anything about the damn thing. The white axe is signed on the body by an artist of whom I have no clue about. It has a S/S/H config and Floyed trem with one volume knob and no tone knob. Neck is bolt-on with 24 jumbo frets and dotted inlayed on the base part of the neck. There is no ESP logo on the 12th fret, just the double dotted inlay.The back neck plate has the numbers 70387.The reversed head stock has the ESP logo with "M III" written next to it.If anyone can identify this guitar for me I would greatly appreaciate it. I called an ESP office in Cali and I was told that the axe was made in japan in 1991 and retailed for $1500.Unfortunately, that was all they could say about it. Most importantly,I would like to know who the artist is that signed the axe. ————- THANKS A BUNCH!

First off, use aheavier set of strings. 11 guage or twelve work well. loosen the springs in the back just a little bit at a timeduring tuningso that the string tension equals the bridge position that is most comfortable for your playing. cheers!

Hi everybody. The past few months I’ve been learning a little instrosurf (dick dale, the ventures, link wray, the chantays, etc.). But a few things are missing. Could anybody tell me which song structures are used is surf, which chords and scales? Until now I’ve figured out that the 12 bar blues scale is used a lot, and 6th string bar chords. But I would like to advance a little, so any help would be very welcome.

What would be the best solution for adding reverb to a reverbless Vox amp? Digital multieffects unit, rack, or dedicated reverb unit. Any suggestions? Bearing in mind i don’t want to loose my Vox’s juicy tone.
-
July 30, 2001 at 7:07 pm #81591AnonymousGuest
I use an Alesis Nanoverb – small, portable, good mix if reverbs. Can suck tone: sounded pretty bad with my old 100w laney head, Sounds better with my JTM45. Your Vox won’t have an effects loop. Neither of mine do either. You could try putting it in line between diagonal input patching, if your Vox has (as I think it does) that 4 input configuration. Not an ideal option, though… Any reverb, even valve units, will superimpose upon your tone. If you use natural power valve distortion a lot, this may not sound nice — reverb before distortion rarely does.

i personaly use a little lineley reverb unit. its made by soundworks and i think it really fits with all vox ac30’s.try it out i think is one of the best things to go for.you’ll apreciate it. good luck..

: I’m looking at a washburn Idol guitar and i’m wondering how good it is, i know nothing about it. I "took a chance" and bought a Washburn Idol series WI24 primarily because it was soooo cheap (or should I say inexpensive). Turns out it was the BEST chance I may have ever made! I’ve been playing privately, publically, and just about everything in between for 25+ years and this guitar (with stock, factory open-coil humbuckers) is one of the best I have ever played and I’ve owned some expensive, top of the line guitars. The neck is extremly fast, the body fits well when you strap it on, and the Grover 18:1 tuners do their job very well. Only drawback: tends to be head heavy. Potential drawback: don’t know what kind of wood the body is made of (neck is maple with mahog. fretboard). But with the sound, tones, and durability, who cares what kind of wood it is. Buy one. Snobs may scoff at you playing a Washburn…until they hear it.

I own i washburn idol. it is the best guitar ive ever played. its really cheap too. the best part of the guitar is the neck. the electronics in the guitar give you incredible tonal flexibility too. the vcc gives you the single coil flavor as well as the badass humbucker distortion. definately the guitar to buy.

I doubt this is the name of the track they seemed to be changing all the names to there songs. This song was intense, it had a fury that none of the other songs had, I was severly impressed. I’m wondering if anyone else has heard it and do they know how I can get it?

: i seem to have a collapsed pickup on my Epiphone SG Special…can anybody tell me how to fix it? Hey , if its just the height adjustment take off the strings, unscrew the pickup ring and screw in the height adustment screw . If its the single coil type, two screws in the pickup not directly underneath the strings are the height adjustment. Let me know if that works. Peace.

I don’t understand why this would have any importance, if you have an acoustic guitar, get a pitch pipe and tune it, then play an E chord, and that’s what it sounds like. If you have an electric, get a korg or something similar and likewise tune it and play an E chord, there you go, that’s what it sounds like. If you’re wondering what some E things would sound like, your open 6th string is an E, your open 1st string is E, 12th fret on both are E, 022100 is E, 079900 is E, etc, etc. : tve taken up the guitar and ive been at it for almost 2 months now and im pretty good not great but ok. so all i need is to find someone to tell or show me what the "e" cord should sound like. a sound file or something. ive been trying to teach myself and books really dont give you sounds (saddly)so can anyone please help? thanx

To play Pinch Harmonics you have to hold yer pick so that you can hardly see the tip of it between your index finger and thumb and you "pinch" the string and then rest your thumb gently on it You will get it sooner or later gl

What do you mean pinch.How???
-
July 28, 2001 at 11:30 pm #109623AnonymousGuest
Pinch harmonics are very easy once you get the hang of it. Technically, you don’t pinch anything. In order to obtain the effect you must grip the pick pretty firmly and place the thumb toward the tip of the pick (the part that touches the string). Now, the next part has to be done at the same time, very precisely. Once the string is plucked, touch the string with the side of the thumb VERY,VERY LIGHTLY or else you will kill the string. This is what makes the harmonic. Depending on where your thumb touches the string, a different harmonic will be produced. The most common harmonic is produced right above the middle pickup (in a three single coil setup). I hope this helps. Good luck.

For drop d I can usually just pop the nut and tune down, retighten and fine tune the rest, or do all the tuning with the tuners/fine tuners (sometimes it takes a sec, sometimes a few min)… for other tunings I have to adjust the springs and play around till it ‘falls in place’, and it usually takes a 15-30 min. Just start playing around and you’ll figure it out, it’s a simple ‘system’, so by good ole trial and error youll figure out what to loosen/tighten/adjust to get the tuning you want. As a side note $50 sounds crazy to charge someone to tune a guitar… maybe go somewhere else where they will show you how to do it if you can’t get it easily yourself. : I just bought an Ibanez S-470 with a Floyd Rose lo-trs2. : I like to be able to change the tuning of my guitar : between standard tuning and different drop tunings : constantly to play different things.

You must be kidding me! Sit down and learn how to do it! But I am sorry to say that doing a drop D on a Floyd Rose is possible but takes a considerable amount of time. You will be fine tuning the guitar for about 30 min. before you can lock it back into place. I have an Ibanez and they really dont "like" to be tuned. But otherwise you should have known what you were gettin into when you got the guitar. Sit down and work on learning how to tune it! You cant be taking it to the store and getting them to do it for you the rest of your life!

this was my first guitar and still my favourite 5 more down the road. it has fantastic pickups, passive EMG type things whith true humbucker at bridge and two sweet stacked single/humbuckers at the neck. the purpose of these is single coil sound with full tone and noise reduction of a humbucker. the neck is a dream to play and the trem is great. my only gripe is that here in the UK it is proving difficult to obtain new springs for the trem. they are a lot heavier than strat, floyd rose, wilkinson, etc, etc. good luck deciding

I have a fender american texas special strat, and when I picked it up, it was wired with 9 gauge strings. Now, I have nothing against them, but I don’t particularily like them, I would like to use 13’s but as far as I can see the guitar won’t take them in standard tuning due to the tension springs on the bridge not being strong enough. Right now I’m using 11’s in standard tuning, and I’ve gone through two sets thus far on this guitar, the first was a set of D’Addario XL115’s, which worked absolutley fine, but eventually wore out. I couldn’t find them anywhere in the stores, so instead I picked up a package of GHS boomer 11’s. The D’Addario’s I didn’t wind too much, probably 2 turns if that on each string, but the GHS’s I put on, I wound quite a few times, up to 5 winds on some of the higher strings, and I’m getting a creaking noise when I bend them excessively. For instance, if I bend the higher strings, (G,B,E) up a step or two, I’ll hear a creaking, I’m not quite sure if it’s the nut or the saddles on the bridge but it’s distracting me and I can feel it slightly in the neck. I’ve already setup the guitar myself for the first set of 11’s with the action I feel best with, bridge height and truss rod adjustment, but for some reason these strings are emitting that noise. I’ve had them on for a few weeks now and I’m doubting it’s the strings themselves stretching. Any ideas?

Crank the Laney past 6 or 7 on the preamp and the master volume. The EL-84’s sound sweet. A nice compliment to the 6L6’s in the Fender amp. Now I’m A/B-ing them together and it’s quite a unique, rocking tone. THAT SAID, I’M EAGER TO HEAR NEW IDEAS, AS WELL AS SPECS ABOUT THIS GOOFBALL AMP. Bought it for $199 today… great deal on a poweful tube amp, BUT I’D LOVE TO HEAR MORE INFO ABOUT IT.

An e-mail response would be appreciated. I may be trying to do something not possible with the GR33. I’m layering tracks in Cakewalk’s Guitar Studio. However, it appears I can only run one channel at a time. In other words, if I change channels (to lay down another track and patch), the original channel and patch go ‘mute’. It’s not until I return to the channel set in my GR-33 that the sound comes back on. Is it possible to assign several channels to the GR-33 and layer tracks in a midi software program? Moreover, the software program seems to ignore the patch numbers assigned to the track and accepts whatever patch is set on the GR-33 module. Any assistance appreciated.

: Can anyone recommend a good 15 Watt tube amp? My brother-in-law has high praise for the Fender Pro Junior. I like the Crate VC508 which has a surprisingly pro sounding overdrive/distortion for such a small amp. As I recall the Crate VC508 won a Guitar Player magazine shootout a few years back. Check Harmony Central and Guitar Player Online for further insight. Good Hunting!!!

: Can anyone tell me Dime Bags set up or where on the internet could I find an equipment list of his. Dime runs his signature guitar through a furman eq., a digitech whammy pedal and a sure wireless system into his amp.. and then in his effects loop their are various effects (phaser, delay, flanger, chorus), compresors, gates, noise reducers, and another furman eq. now dimes amp.. has 300 watts of power.. and he runs it into a cab with 4 x 12" speakers in it.. and then in to a cab with 2 x 15" speakers in it.. if you don’t have all of that equipment but want a similar sound the best thing to do is to set your gain at about 8 and crank up your bass to about 9 1/2 and put your trebble at about 6 and then tottaly cut out your mids thats where it counts … no mids… that will drop your volume but it sounds so good… you might want to get some good pickups too.. seymore duncan screamin’ demon’s are what I use.. they sound so good..

Here in Argentina it costs about U$s100. Cheap guitars ($400 under) come w/weak frets, so refretting is an option – makes your guitar really a better one. I dont know the cost of the cg100. What is the problem – are the frets very used, or you may have tuning problems?

Um well I guess it depends on what you want, if you’re into metal you’re going to definatley want at least one humbucker, provided your guitar is routed for it. You’ll end up having to buy a new pickguard I’d imagine or do some home-routing with powertools if it’s not pre-done. I guess it depends on what wood the guitar is made out of, I would necessarily want to go and spend a couple hundred bucks on a set of seymour duncan pickups to toss them into a basswood, poplar or plywood guitar because although it will improve sound you won’t get much performance over a set of cheaper pickups. I guess all I can tell you is if your guitar is made out of a higher quality wood, go with higher quality pickups (lacers, seymour duncan, dimarzio, etc) in your price range, if it’s a cheaper guitar, pickup some generic pickups. Seeing as it’s a strat style, if you go with single’s, try padding them with copper foil to eliminate noise. : I would like to put a new pickup in : my guitar .

Hi I bought a Parker P38. you know the cheaper Parker model which allows you to switch between standard pickups and piezo electric which gives a good electric acoustic sound. Guess what, 3 months later with only home use and not very much of that I get a dead string and crackling through the amp whenever I use the whammy bar. Anybody else out there with this problem? I took the thing back to the shop nearly 3 weeks ago and am still waiting. £500 it cost and no guitar!! I got a nice intro from Ken parker saying how much he thinks of quality, how about showing me some Ken?

July 17, 2001 at 9:01 pm #81286AnonymousGuest
I’am no teacher, but with 2 years of playing you probally have a pretty good foundation to start on, so if you don’t already know your scales/modes start by learning them, and I also found it really benificial learning every note on the fretboard, and then probally like you learned to play rythym, after you have the ‘basics’ start playing… to music you like (I found it easier to play ‘slower’ blues to start), improvising, exploring, and a metronome is great to work up your speed… well thats my 2 cents, sorry I can’t give you any ‘secrets’, and there is a wealth of info on the web to get started with.
-
July 20, 2001 at 7:23 am #104802AnonymousGuest
I dont know what kind of music do you like, but blues is great to begin cause it’s easy to catch the structure and you can play it well w/the pentatonic scale, which is the easiest to learn at the beginning. Try learning it first and email me if you want. Do it well, and build quality, then speed. Dont fatigue.

I just recently purchased an old May-Bell guitar. My understanding is that these were made by the Slingerland Company which is more known formerly for their banjos and more recently for their drums. My May-Bell is a slightly smaller guitar. It is a flattop with sunburst finish, white bindings and pickguard and a May-Bell decal on the headstock. It has a grewat tone and wonderful action. I believe it to date from sometime between the 1930s or 40s.

For enough money, they are available everywhere, you just need to search the internet more. Otherwise, a 4X12 is basically four speakers stuck in a box. you could make the casing whatever shape or size you want. After that, all you need to know is how to wire it, which is pretty simple. It is best to use 3/4" plywood for the outer structure, and 1/2" for everything else.

Someone asked me this one: I was wondering if someone could tell me how to do that picking effect where you pick the note a certain way and it goes a couple octaves higher. you can hear this effect in a lot of Steve Vai’s playing. If you guys could send me some info on that that would be awesome. Please leave your answers here… Cheers Geoff

This way the string fundamental is damped when you pluck although the string is free to vibrate so that the octave is played. When you undamp the string continues to vibrate in the octave mode.

I’m currently wanting to upgrade/better my sound: Ibanez Series X guitar, Peavey Chorus 212 amp, Art SGX-2000 multi-effects processor. I was thinking about buying the Roland VG-88 multi-effects processor ($999.00)…but.. After doing some reading online, alot of people say single-effects are better. I’m mainly after killer distortion, but also quality effects. Would I be better off just buying a few single-effects (distortion, phasor, flanger) than purchase the (thousand dollar Roland VG-88?) Thanks, I’d appreciate any advice……also on what to buy.

The problem is that the pickups in my guitar have been submerged inside there cases due to a fall or some such incident. It is a very inexpenseive guitar and I will be upgrading soon (mabye a Schecter C-7 Diamond Series or something) but if it would be an easy fix I would like to keep it as a backup. Thanks for you’re help and if you know about Schecter guitars tell me what you think of the C-7. Ecks (X)

yeah, i have a friend that has a schecter c-7 – its a really nice blue, looks good, plays terable! he swears the pick-ups dont play like he wants, (knowing him, he wants some from ratm- tim manhony’s!(- i think its mic check- song 5 – the 3:18 marking of time or so, for about 8 seconds, off the battle of los angleous cd… )its a feedback of his harmonic tap-off, and tim’s pickups recive this mexican techno radio station (but in lower volume)- due to the extreme and perscise and persition of his pick’s!- yeah, not to know from playing the experience of the diamond personally, but knowing the sound it makes, its a keeper for a good price.

You have to order them direct from Matt McPherson at http://www.mcphersonguitars.com or (680)366-1407. Standard wood combinations of redwood/rosewood, cedar/rosewood, or spruce/rosewood are $4,000, but having played one, they’re worth every penny!

All tabs that you find on the internet are wrong! If you are looking for an exact tabv on the internet, you won’t find one beause they don’t exist. They are only close interpretations of someone. I you really want to learn the song, learn it by ear. It will probably be just as good and you areactually training your ear!! Don’t say you can’t or you haven’t been playing long enough, becasue my friend (who has been playing for two months) can pick up most songs played on the radio after only a few minutes of listening. Internet tabs are gay, because they are wrong. DON’T WASTE YOUR TIME!!!! Learn buy ear or buy the damn music from the store if you refuse to beleive that your ear is capable of picking up songs!!!!!

well tabs off the net are people putting what they are listening to on the internet they are doing the same thing we would doi if we were figuring the sng out ourselves only they are doing it and posting on the internet so it really doesnt matter if you figure out the song your self or from the internet

OK, I’m gonna try to explain a couple of things. I had gtp 2.2 demo which lets you print but with some annoying letters on the tablature. There’s a crack for this version that removes that letters but this is possible because the "print module" is on the demo itself. What I think is that the gtp 3 demo version doesn’t have that "print module" (note that doesn`t let you print anything) so I guess that such crack is not possible. Maybe we can someday get the full version!!

July 21, 2001 at 11:30 am #81453AnonymousGuest
Well this is what I would tell you, seeing as you mentioned you have an acoustic, I’ll tell you this right now, acoustic guitars generally have heavier gauge strings (unless they’re nylon) and higher actions, meaning they’re harder to play on and do more damage to uncalused fingers. I guess it depends on what style of music you’re into, I would pickup a mexi strat to start on, seeing as they’re cheap and decent guitars, set it up with 9 gauge strings and a low action. It should be easy to bar the strings and depress them, as well as move quickly along the fretboard with very little ripping of the fingers. However this is all preference, you may want to go with heavier strings for the beefier tone. : i wrote the post below but forgot to say that i also have acces to an ellectric guitar, what is best and easist to leann on seeing as i have no experience???? : p.s i’ve only just started and am already having trouble with chords, are these easier on an eletric guitar??

Chords are made up of scales. I’d learn the scales, at least that’s what I’m being taught first. We’re just starting into chords and they make more sense. Bones is right about starting out under a good instructor. What I haven’t seen yet is how long it takes to program a "fine motor" skill (which is what fretting strings is) into your unconscious mind: 3,000 – 5,000 repetitions = lots of practice & patience.
-
July 16, 2001 at 6:58 am #81172AnonymousGuest
Everybody wants to learn by themselves from books these days. The frustrating reality of it is that learning from books is slow and much harder than guitar should be. You don’t always understand exactly what the author means at times even with the best books. My recamendation to you, as someone who taught himself, is do a couple of months with a good friendly guitar teacher. After that if you really want to do it alone things happen a little faster and you have a good foundation. Good luck
-
July 16, 2001 at 6:41 am #81192AnonymousGuest
If your trying to jump in and play songs right away your doing the wrong thing. a book can aid you but just get a chord chart and practice over and over again, once you get your chords down and can play them without duds and flow from chord to chord move on to your scales. Also once you have your chords down you can start to learn a few basic songs and make up your own stuff. GOOD LUCK

How the hell can people put vibrato on a note while bending it as well??
-
July 17, 2001 at 4:02 am #81166AnonymousGuest
It’s really not too hard. First, use two or three fingers (for bending and vibrato strength). When you bend the note to the desired pitch, twist your wrist just a little and you will notice that the note is raised a little. Repeat the motion and there is your vibrato. As a word of caution, watch how much you twist the wrist, you don’t want to broaden the pitch too much.
-
July 16, 2001 at 4:16 pm #81159AnonymousGuest
Very strong fingers. Actually try bending the note with two fingers close together.
-
July 20, 2001 at 7:10 am #81293AnonymousGuest
If you want to emulate other people’s sound or vibrato, take care w/your fingers – not everybody has Stevie’s fingers! So your vibrato may be different than his, e.g.

THE ROLAND GUITAR SYNTH MODEL GR-300 WAS THE MODEL WITH THE BLUE FOOT CONTROLLER. IT IS THE SOUND STILL OFTEN USED BY PAT METHENY AND WAS USED PROMINANTLY BY ARTISTS SUCH AS ADRIAN BELEW AND ROBERT FRIPP. THIS MODEL CAME WITH I BELIEVE TWO DIFFERENT MODELS ODF GUITARS ONE WAS A RED STRAT SYLE GUITAR AND THE OTHER WAS A WOOD COLOR DOUBLE CUTAWAY STYLE WITH BROWN HUMBUCKERS. YOU CAN SEE METHENY PICK THIS ONE UP. DOES ANY ONE HAVE ANY KNOWLEDGE OF WHERE I CAN FIND THIS ONE FOR SALE?

-
July 16, 2001 at 4:18 pm #81167AnonymousGuest
Very little pressure is required as the slide, not the neck and frets are sounding the note. A guitar with slightly higher action produces a better sound for me but most people don’t have multiple guitars to set them up differently

I just bought SeaSound’s "soloist" as my device to record my guitar to Cakewalk9. However, when I attempt to record, Cakewalk doesnt seem to recognize any sound comming in. I have checked the level indicators on the Soloist. It shows that sound is comming in. I have also checked SeaSound’s software program that shows that the computer is receiving sound. In Cakewalk, I have changed the input settings to the Soloist’s input. However, when I try to record, I get nothing. Any ideas? Thanks, Steve Moore

Have you set the sound cards input to the proper source. This is usually a selectable item that tells the sound card where the input is to be picked up. On mine it is a panel very much like the volume control panel You select the inptu you want to use and tune the level to suit your needs.

I was wondering if anyone out there could give me some strat advice…is there any way to modify a strat, by inserting an additional tone control pot, to give all three pickups separate tone controls?…would I have to make a new hole in the body, rewire electronics, or are packages available? is professional customization necessary? this is all kinda new to me… thanks,
-
August 13, 2002 at 8:59 am #98331AnonymousGuest
i own a strat but i did a lot of modifications too it… i but in tripple humbucker and individul selection switches… as far as tone goes i made my tow tone controls master controls for all three pickups but used diffent capacitors to make one high and one low tone.. as far as adding a tone… i considering it… i considered using the volume pot as a third tone and putting a new volume in else where but i really couldn’t find a place is was comfortable with… fenr guitars as built staunchily( the only rout out a little bit of room for pickups) and will definately require body owrk to fit another pot… the other complicated thing is that the pickups selectors are different from strat to strat… find the terminal where the pickup you want to work with is soldered to that swith and solder another wire there to make the positive end… then wire is and link is bakck to the signal reutrn… which iin your strat is pry on top of the volume pot… in case you want other mods i suggest you explore this site…. it is very useful http://www.guitarnuts.com/wiring/menu.html

I own a Jim Dunlop cry baby (model GCB-95). I play a shitty squier strat and I also play with a boss Ds1. I plug an adaptor into the wah, and I use a battery for the DS-1 . My problem is that the wah sounds shite sometimes. When I play high notes it sounds weak, unlike pros who use a Jim Dunlop and it sounds realy strong wah,(Morello,Hammet,Slash)Im wondering is my 2 week old Dunlop fucked, or is it the rest of my equipment. It sounds alright sometimes,just not like the pros.Does a good guitar/amp give the wah a better sound? If so, what kind of guitar/amp? Thanks.

Hi all, I recently purchased an Ibanez with a Floyd Rose Single Locking Tremolo, and I am having a nightmare with the tremolo arm bushing. It is a 2 piece nut type assembly that the company suggests will allow finger tip adjustment. Bull!!! I can’t keep this darn thing tight to save my life. I know on the double locking models this is not an issue (now I find out!!!). Is there any type of aftermarket fix for this or am I faced with thread locker or even worse, welding this thing to the base plate. Any comments or suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!!!

July 15, 2001 at 7:45 pm #81191AnonymousGuest
Start with something affordable. A $3000 Les Paul will sound like a $30 cheapie if you can’t play. Look for quality however because if the guitar bug really bites you then your poor old beginer axe will need to take a lot of punishment. I would personally recomend either a Squire Strat or Yamaha Pacifica 112. Both of these guitars are great quility, will take a beating and sound pretty good for the money. Remember that you will probably play your first gig in a few years with the guitar you are about to buy. Good luck and happy shopping.

I’ve been playing for about 2 years on and off. Depending on what guitar you want to buy ()electric/acoustic) I wouldn’t go nuts with the price. Just get something affordable. At the end of the day the guitar requres practice, once you have learned a few of the basic chords and maybe some scales aswell, you’ll be playing and enjoying a lot of songs, and then you can decide from there if you would like to learn further and buy a better guitar. If you practice for about a half hour a day, after a year you wll have learnt a nice bit a musical education which will hopefully leave you hungry for more. My first guitar was a cheap superstore guitar, nylon strung, and I had the for 8 months until I thought it time to get a quality steel strung guitar. Now I also have a Fender Stratocaster and I just can’t stop the buzz of picking up and playing… good luck and joy buddy.

Ok, this probably wont help u at all cuz i dont play punk. but if u mean scratching ur pick against the thick strings (E,A,D) then ill just tell u how i do it. i hold the pick at a 45degree angle pointing towards the headstock, then just kinda push the pick smoothly across and slightly push down. u could also do finger slides on the fretboard to give some more affect. this probably wont help much, but good luck

If what the previous guy said doesn’t make it work, for whatever reason, try turning up the treble on your amp? And make sure you’re using the bridge pickup on your strat. If you’re having trouble getting the exsact sound that you are going for (I mean tone of the "slide"), I’m not sure what kind of punk you are playing (Oldschool or Newschool) but alot of the new punk stuff uses chorus and reverb effects to make some the tones the way they are. -If this wasn’t too much information.

Hi Folks, I’m doing some research for a guitar accessory design I’m busy with and I’d really, really appreciate some help. Guitars come in all shapes and sizes so if you have a guitar I’d like to know it’s measurements!! Haa Haa!! No seriously, I’m looking for the measurement in millimetres of the Thickness of the guitar head (both mine are 15mm) and the distance between the Machine Heads (not the tuning pegs), if any. If there is no space between, how deep is the machine head casing? If you have a nylon guitar on top of the above measurements I’d like to know the distances from the edge of the guitar head to the open section, the open section and the middle section. This will help me out big time because for some reason Music Shops don’t take kindly to a person attacking their Guitar stock with a tape-measure!!! Go Figure!! Many, many thanks in advance to anyone that takes the time to help me. Cheers Mel — <a href="http://www.mp3.com/MelBingham">www.mp3.com/MelBingham</a>

Plus, I’ve played with some other people who use more expensive Martin’s and my Sigma sounds great along with them. I play a lot of Dave Matthews and John Mayer and both sound great on this guitar.

dont fall for all that vintage crap…….just play them all and decide which one is you…….your not buying this for an investment, your buying it to play……and take a good hard look at the frets to see how worn they are if you go with a used one….trust me its expensive to have them done properly….and even worse if done by the wrong loser…..and you need to be specific about the exact model of the new LP your looking at…..at that price its either stolen(if its a standard or better)…..or it may be one of the smartwoods or one of the special purchase studios from one of the superstores…..if the latter that doesnt mean its not a good guitar….its all in what feels good to you

Fred, As a rule, the Kalamazoo made Gibsons are better than the Nashville ones. The brand new one is made in Nashville, but that’s a ridiculously low price for it (is it an Epiphone instead of a Gibson? A new Les Paul is well over $1500, sometimes up to $3500). The way to tell if the 1977 and 1980s are made in Kalamazoo or Nashville is simple. Look at the serial numbers. If the 5th number is a 0 or 1 it’s from Kalamazoo, if it’s a 5 or 6 it’s from Nashville. : i was lookin for used gibson les paul standards and found a couple choices, one is a 1980 model with a few cosmetic scratches and the strap screw has been moved upward (the old one probably got stripped) ($875), the other is a 1977 model in tobacco burst with belt rash ($815), and the last is a 2001 model in mint condition ($710). i have heard the recent gibson stuff is shit, but would like ur input on whcih to purchase : thanx a lot : fred

New Gibsons suck? Well, they also said this from the senveties Gibs and Fenders and in a way that was true but now a lot of people think those senventies strats en teles have more character than the new ones. Just decide for yourself, I guess. I would prefer a eighties Gibson, the new ones are way to expensive I think. : Fred, : As a rule, the Kalamazoo made Gibsons are better than the Nashville ones.

July 11, 2001 at 4:28 am #80906AnonymousGuest
Put the Capo on the 2nd fret, and pretend that it’s the nut…play a regular C chord shape, just like you would without the Capo, you’re just gonna play two frets higher than normal. It makes it easier to transpose things. When the music tells you to Capo on 2 and then play a C chord, you PLAY a C, but because the Capo is there, it’s actually a D chord (one whole step higher), if you put the Capo on the 3rd fret it becomes a D# (you can also call it an E flat, it’s the same thing). : I have been playing acoustic guitar for about 3 months and trying to teach myself through tablature and chord charts, but recently I tried to play a couple songs which required a capo on the 2nd fret, My question being how are chords like a G, C or E played with a capo on the 2nd fret? and is there some sort of chord conversion for playing with a capo and if so where could I find this? : Thanks for your help!!

July 10, 2001 at 4:01 am #80887AnonymousGuest
The best I understand it, yes you need a separate amp, or at least a speaker out that’s on a separate power amp….the point being, you have to be able to mute the regular amp’s speakers, and switch to the talkbox (I guess you could run ’em both at once, but you’d still have to mute the main speakers). Probably the easiest way to do it is to get an inexpensive amp with an external speaker jack. Use an a/b box to split the main input into your regular stage amp and into the cheapie so it’s one or the other, connect the Heil to the external speaker out of the cheap amp and run it like that. I have a little, all tube, 15 watt Crate that would work great for this actually (you can’t have it though, sorry dude). : I just purchased the talk box, and I am having the worst time setting up the connections.

What kind of numbers were they? Roman numeral, or digit. My guess is that somewhere at the beginning the key of the song was given and the numbers you see represent the chords in the different degrees of the key scale. Let’s say the song was written in the key of D Major and you see a "1" or a "I" and then you see a "5" or a "V" and then you see a "2" or a "ii". The numbers stand for a D major chord, an A major chord, and an E minor chord, respectively.

That’s known as the Nashville numbering system, and Phil’s right, mostly, although as I understand it you don’t use Roman Numerals, just regular Arabic #s. The Roman numerals tell you what fret to put a Capo on, which if you’re using the Nashville System, you don’t specifically need to be told that, instead of saying Capo II, play like it’s in G, they’ll just say it’s in the key of A and here’s the progression, 1 / 4 / 1 / 5 / 1 / 2 / 3 / 6m / 2(7) / 1 In A that’s the following chords A / D / A / E / A / B / C# / F#m / B7 / A It’s a pretty cool system if you know how to use it (I’m not fluent or anything). Also to remember, they have special signs for augmented, diminished, suspended and other jazzy chords, or sometimes they’ll just write aug, dim, etc. : What kind of numbers were they?

They call it the Nashville numbering system because they’ve been using it in Nashville since the 50s to transcribe songs quickly in a way that lets you play it in any key without having to transpose it in your head…. It’s an actual written system, unlike when you say you’re going to play a 1, 4, 5 blues. : : That’s known as the Nashville numbering system, and Phil’s right, mostly, although as I understand it you don’t use Roman Numerals, just regular Arabic #s.

Hello to all: My name is Manuel Romero, and I write you from Barcelona, because I have a serious problem with two of my guitars. It is a Fender Stratocaster with esperzel pegs and bridge Wilkinson -Gotoh -; and a Squier-Fender Stratocaster with pegs and series bridge (Japanese). Both are in perfect conservation state, and in two the same unheard and surprising problem that is the following one happens: When you acts down with the bar bridge, when returning that to their position, the guitar has been out of tune completely. But the topic is that the tuning ascends in all the strings, and even in some, until half tone (for example the sixth string passed E to F). And, surprisingly, when making a simple bending in each one of the strings these almost return to their correct tuning. The two guitars have been revised properly and has not been possible to find the cause of so strange behavior. Everything seems to work properly. Pegs have been revised, capo, bridge, etc… and everything seems to work well. Even in one of them the pegs, the capo and the bridge were substituted, and the problem persists. An experienced luthier of Barcelona confirms me to have seen this phenomenon in some few guitars (of models also different) and it could never determine the cause, and to proceed to the repair. Are you certain this problem type? Which can the cause of so strange behavior be? What solution does have? Thank you and see you.

Yes, strat trems are not made for heavy diving, better stay out of the water (mr hendrix had this problem also as you can hear on his live recordings..) there are a few solutions though if you insist on kamikaze exercises: 1.Replace the bridge with Floyd Rose. 2.Replace the tuners with locking tuners. 3.Replace the nut with a graph tech one. 4.Buy a locking nut guitar. Problem, of course is the nut. Probably the spacing is too narrow for the strings width. Strings will get stuck once the tension is released but will return to their original position when you bend them after trem work. If you don’t like all of the solutions, sand the nut a little more so the strings can freely move, oil it (or use graph tech powder) once in a while and learn to, after a down movement with the trem, to finish with a short up movement so the strings can return to their original position.

Yes.Remove the rubber feet on the bottom.Next to the POT(tone control)you’ll see a little doo-hicky that holds the pot-turner in place.Simply push it aside and tweak the POT. Good Luck

And a friend told me that a place called the guitar center has cheap ones and i just wanna know how much would one cost? thanx! =)

July 10, 2001 at 12:38 am #80837AnonymousGuest
The Guitar Center is only one of many places that have decent guitars that are reasonably priced. Check the stores around you and you should find some. For a beginner, I would recommend a "middle-of-the-road" acoustic. Not something that is too expensive, and not the cheapest one you can find. I would say somewhere around $200-$300 should be o.k. The reason I say that one should avoid the cheapest thing around is because it WILL completely turn you off to the guitar. It will give you nothing but trouble. Yamaha makes some great beginner acoustics, check those out. I hope this helps, and good luck! Have fun too.

July 10, 2001 at 7:29 am #104509AnonymousGuest
Shop around a bit. Let the dealer knowthat you are a beginner and see what they have to offer. But don’t buy a really cheap guitar. You will end up with a guitar that wont hold tune an is not so easy to play. Good valuse can be had from used guitars so don’t overlook them. Good luck with your playing. You can see we all like it a lot.

Hello, I recently got a very nice Gibson Les Paul L6-S. I know nothing about the value or time frame this one was made. Can anyone help me out here? I’ve looked for a serial number but couldn’t find one. All I see is "Grover" marked on each individual tuner, and L6-S marked on the truss rod cover and of course Gibson on the head stock. Since I don’t play guitar, does someone know how to tell when this one was made and maybe an estimate of it’s value in Excellent condition? thanks, Jim Watts

I have a Gibson L6-S in mint condition. No blemishes at all. It has square inlays on the maple fretboard. The body is blonde maple also. The serial number is 183198. I was wondering if anyone can tell me the value of this guitar and what year it was made. I am guessing ’73. It also has the original Les Paul style case in great condition with the Gibson logo and purple felt on the inside.

On a new epiphone, changing pickups might help cuz it’s should be a decent guitar. Stay in tune is an other thing… a decent set of keys could do the job but if you’re not happy with the sound also, just sell the &%(*^&* thing and buy something else. A Gibson won’t sound necesarly better (depending of what you expect) but because it’s better build, it should stay in tune better.

Don’t fall into to the trap of thinking that a Gibson is better than an Epiphone. I used to have an Epi LP that was gorgeous that I bought for $185 used and it had a flamed top! So I’d definitely buy used. And try to buy older models that hold their value. I recently bought a 1972 SG with mini-humbuckers and a bigsby for $499 on Ebay! The guitar is worth around $700 easy so look for the deals.

The scale of a regular guitar wouldn’t be long enough, therefore it wouldn’t work. I suggest buying a Jerry Jones 6-string bass. They go for $400-$500 and you can tune them to a baritone tuning as well, A-A or B-B.

The speaker itself tests o.k. as does the lead, so I am assuming it’s a shorted component on the output side of these transistors. Any clues as to the area of the circuit board in which I should be looking would be greatly appreciated. Ta, Rod.

Does anyone know if boss fx pedals are true bypass? (check by running guitar to pedal with no battery or adapter to amp and play. if you can still get the dry sound while running through the pedal with no power, it is a true bypass. if not, it means it sucks tone, volume.) thanx in advance

July 7, 2001 at 12:54 am #80702AnonymousGuest
That’s a mighty wide range. It depends on a lot of factors, what year it was made, what condition it’s in, where it was made (Kalamazoo or Nashville), anything else special about it (natural finishes are a little less common, but not especially unusual). I’d say anywhere from $3500 to $10,000. An old friend of my family had a customized Gibson Johnny Smith (cherry red, two pickups, with his name on the fingerrest) that he bought brand new when he worked at Gibson back in the sixties, it cost him maybe $1000, he sold it to a student around 1980 or so for $800, who turned around and sold it 3 or 4 years later for about $3500. Well, the thing sold on Ebay about a year ago for $50,000 because it was a one of a kind, and in fact it’s been featured in a vintage guitar calendar and in a vintage guitar book. That just goes to show that little variations can often make a big difference in price. I’d have the thing evaluated by a competent, honest guitar dealer. : any one know what one is worth dated between 1960 and 1990?? and if the blonde versions are rarer?

I have been trying to teach myself to play acoustic guitar by playing tabs and need some help with octaves like what are they and how are they played?, could someone please explain the definition of octaves?…such as the ones used in the acoustic version of everlong by the foo fighters. any help is appreciated and if anyone has any helpful tips for learning strumming patterns by ear, that would be great!! Thanks Alot
-
July 6, 2001 at 10:34 pm #104358AnonymousGuest
Octaves are quite simple. It sounds like you think they are some type of chord or something, they are not. All an octave is is a certain note being played an octave higher. For example, let’s say you are playing a C Major scale starting at the 3rd fret on the 5th string, you go along your scale C,D,E,F,G,A,B technically that is the entire scale, those 7 notes. But you notice that when you play the B(the 7th note), it wants to go somewhere, it wants to resolve to a higher note, so, you resolve to the next note above the B and then the scale sounds complete right? Well, the note you resolved to was a C. Only, this C is one octave above the C you started on. See, it’s quite simple. The prefix "oct" means eight. So, an OCTave is exactly eight notes above the note you started with. I hope this helps some.

to learn strumming patterns by ear-listen very carefully to the strumming on the record. now, pick up your guitar with your hands, and strum, but, and this is important, do it JUST LIKE THE RECORD. glad to have been no help.

I’ll add to what the other guys said.But,EMBRACE THE HORROR!Your average listener doesn’t give a fuck how good you are on guitar,bass,drums… O.K. Your front man has to be able to relate to the crowd(work a room). People in general ground themselves to the vocals, lyrics,melody.So,leave them singing your tunes at the end of the night.DO NOT HANG OUT WITH THE AUDIENCE AFTER A SHOW.If you bump into them,don’t snub them either.Maintain your mystic and behave like a pro. If you’re the leader,keep in contact with your crew,and forbid drugs or alcohol BEFORE THE GIG! Just a little "blue collar" advice from me. Good Luck

It is sad but it is true. The music only place second stage. Think about how much shit is out there! It’s the show that does it and yes, also the charisma. Now, there’s the problem that a lot of bands are big for some time and then just die a slow and unnoticed dead only o be replaced by the next hot thing. Other bands just try to be themselves and do what they feel is right. These bands mostly don’t reach the big audiences… or so it seems. I know it’s dangerous, but i’ll give an example: TOOL. Some people have never heard of this band, still they are great. James Maynard Keenan has charisma, the shows are something special, videoclips are pieces of art (the same goes for their cd-booklets) and the music is actually pretty simple but they go about it in such an original way that it seems very complicated. In the end, it all comes down to lots of practicing, knowing people, a shitload of luck and perseverance. The road to the top is always more interesting than the top itself. It’s lonely up there. You might end up knowing a lot of people but when you’re at the top people tend to look at you as if you are Mickey Mouse or something. Just do your thing and be good at it. me Never stop until your good becomes better and your better becomes the best. – Frank Zappa.

I think what Mickstar98 and Mikke said is true, you need connections and be at the right place the right time. That’S for the business. But only with that you can not attract the crows for long. You have two proof that you are "IT". Therefor you have to be charismatic and be in some ways fascinating. I played in many beands and it was all crap. I tried to play as fast as I can and make the arrangements as complicated as could be. Then, I started playing in an Elvis Cover Band. We play just rock’n’roll, sooooo simple. Three singers and two of them are charismatic. And we attract the people. And they only care about our show. We could play the biggest trash and nobody would recognize it if the show has been good. It is weird! Rock’n’Roll has no rules…and that is good!

: Frineds in the industry. I have been in bands over the past 14 years, and the one thing I have learned is this. You do not have to be world known to make money, or be well followed. Not to say you should not reach for the top, but playing the small gigs are so much more fun and impressive, that is what you will remember all of you life. No stress, and frustration, just playing good music. Even though I myself have not tasted the big time it is a dream and i stick with my theory that if it happens it happens, don’t reach be yourself and take satisfaction in the fact that you did reach at least one person, thats all that matters. : : what is it that those bands like led zep and such have that makes them world famous with tons of fans??

Do you mean those slim lightweight guitars? I’ve lived in London for 3 years and to be honest I haven’t seen a huge range of them. Guitar prices in general are quite high in London but sometimes you can find a bargain (try Denmark Street, there’s a real mixture of stuff there – but go round all the shops before you buy as some are very overpriced!!) If you can get a reasonably cheap one in Australia I would recommend buying it there. : gday, i am going to london in a month and the travelling around europe in 3.

Can anyone tell me how to make space echo tapes, what length they should be, what I need and anywhere in England I can get the equipment Also is there anything on a space echo that needs to be set and/or maintained. I have just bought the machine in almost new condition but it hasnt been used for over ten years and still has the original disintegrating tape. Thanks Phil

The ’57 PAF would work fine. Just buy a passive pickup that’s not too hot and it’ll get that smoky sound. Seymour Duncan makes nice ones, or you can also try a Kent Armstrong, they have a really good tone and are less money than the Duncans. : I am looking for a sweet L5 sound.

I am looking for more information on a guitarist called Red Volkshart who plays lead for Merle Haggard? He plays an old Fender with old old amp and pickup. He copies licks and ditties from other famous players and gives them the "Fender" sound that evidently is quite unique and can be recognized by guitarists. He was on PBS last week in Oklahoma network. He has several albums of his own, but trying to make sure I have the spelling right and if any of you have ever heard of him??

The thing to do is to search for multitrack recorders: they are your best bet for recording, as for writing, as in transcribing, you will likely want to consider a separate piece of software.. I have not reached that stage of transcribing, get a MIDI guitar and it should do it automatically, but I have an Acoustic Fender with a Seymour Duncan pickup with volume controls and it comes in handy for tonal additions and bring the volume up for recording; get a $30-40 microphone at Radio Shack and a 1/4" to 1/8" converted and plug it into your input jack (microphone jack) on the back of your PC’s soundcard; place the microphone near an amp and that will really work, or you can place the microphone near the soundboard of your guitar, which can be difficult for volume at times, as you move the guitar around; some say that the latter sounds the best…

I recently saw a posting that exclaimed that the Gibson Les Paul Studio is stupid. There was no explanation as to why. Does anyone have opinions on this guitar? I plan on purchasing one and would really like to know. I know the technical packaging, but haven’t seen any reviews on it’s tone and playability.

I have owned a Les Paul studio for a few years now, and love it. I agree with whoever said that not all of them are the same. I played alot of them, and I can’t say I’ve ever played one that I like as much as mine. (An ’86 wine-red jewel finish with PRS dragon pickups) But like, at the store there were two of them, identical in year, color, but the one I picked out was far better set-up, (and I did prefer the different pickups) I don’t know if it was just the set-up, but it really did "feel" better than the other one. Ya, just shop around like you were picking out the guitar to bear your children and you shouldn’t go wrong.

Get an older one, 98′ and earlier I think, the new ones are made cheaper, and about a quarter of an inch of would is "shaved off" the back making the body thinner and affecting the tone. They also cost alot more now, I just bought a mint condition 97 studio for 740.00 on ebay. TONE AND SUSTAIN AND BANG FOR THE BUCK BABY!!!

July 15, 2001 at 4:47 am #81180AnonymousGuest
granted the studios are a lesser quality of wood…hence the painted bodies, and they are not bound edges….thats what makes a LP expensive, not what makes it play nicely or sound great…I decided on a studio about 10 years ago after playing hundreds of LPs(standars, customs, and studios)it had the wine stain where you can see the wood and it played better than almost any other that I had touched……they are NOT all the same… take your time and find the one that suits you

Well, I own an old Gibson Les Paul and you will find that most Gibson has incredibile sustain; they definitely do not have the tonal quality of a Stratocaster, but the Les Paul are great for jazz chording to Rhythm Guitar. Make sure your bridge is adjusted right. Mine is adjustable and so are the tuning pegs on the bridge: nice features to have. Make sure you find the right strings for it to: don’t stray away too far to extra light because the guitar is very sensitive about its strings

It is a fine guitar. I bought one a few months ago and I love it. They are a great value and are worth the money. Mine doesn’t play as well as the more expensive LP’s, but it still plays beautifully and the tone is just as good to me as any Les Paul, expensive or not. I can’t tell any difference in tone. It’s essentially a Standard Les Paul without binding. The body is just "put together". You know how some have the white lines around the edges? The studio doesn’t have that, which actually makes it look really cool. Anyway, there are some thoughts.

try a different amp, or even guitar, but if you love your gear try a new pickup in your guitar, even setting the tone controls differently could be a start, it depends what sound your after, i use a starfield guitar with a seymour duncan holdsworth pick up and a tech 21 trademark 6o amp. i used to own a les paul standard and a selmer valve amp. i got bored with my sound and a change of gear did it for me. good luck. tom glenn

Yeah, replace the pickups with high quality humbuckers switch to a higher guage string, and buy a very powerful all-tube amp. If you don’t do these, it’s just not gonna happen. The Squier’s just aren’t made to do that. Or you can cough up the cash for a Dimebag guitar. That’s about the best you can do.

Why do you want to do that?Squires are a good guitar in their own right,soon the charictaristic Squire sound will be much more sought after than the Fender tone.Do you realize just how many bands actually use Squire rather than Fender because they prefere them?

this can very simpely done! I have dime bags sound! Mesa boogie is the shit! get a triple rectifier and you will never buy another amp!…..if you cant afford one this is how you start to build the Pantera tone! goes like this…take out the shitty pickups you have and this is the most important thing you can do to get the TONE!!!! you buy a BILL LAWRENCE L-500XL bridge pickup and a SEMORE DUNCAN 59 for your neck pickup this is the set up that he uses the larence pickup is unbeliveable!!! high out put with no noise bill makes the best pickups i have lawrence pick ups in around 5 of my guitars… i also have dimarzio X2N’s that rock and some early 80’s super distortions…they rock but dimarzios are very noisy…the larence in the brige position L500-XL look up bill lawrence on line some people are selling pickup that are fake L-500XL…beware better to buy direct from bill Lawrence!!! and semore 59 in the neck! then get a sick tube amp like a boogie triple rectifier or a Soldano… if you cant afford those get the pick ups and a Boss GT-6 and spend a few hours tweeking the song out of it the presets suck!! or check out a rocktron voodoo valve last but not least get a hush noise reduction system and if you set it al up right you too.. can have dime’s sound! IF you save up for a boogie amp you will have it forever!!!!! if you need more info on sond equipment i can help just email me at [email protected] I have had just about everything made for guitarist today!!!

I recently bought a 77 Guild S300-D that is all original. The only problem with this lost classic is that it tends to go out of tune very frequently. Some strings make that ‘ping’ sound during tuning so I guess the nut is part of the problem. I was wondering if anyone had any suggestions about what to do about it. Im not too worried about decreasing its value so Ive been thinking about replacing the nut, adding locking tuners, or both. Please email me with any insights or suggestions. Thanks. -Ben Dewar

July 10, 2001 at 11:37 am #80914AnonymousGuest
yo jorge: it’s not a complicated job as long as you have some soldering chops. these pickups are mounted directly on the pickguard (loosen completely or remove strings). remove the pickguard screws, carefully lift the pickguard – holding it near the guitar’s body near where the jack is (here it’s connected to the hot wire of the jack and the ground wire – try not to pull ’em out!) gently turn it over and you’ll see the pickups, wiring, etc. You’ll notice that each pickup is connected to a lug on the pickup switch and to the instruments "ground" (typically via the back of the volume pot). Carefully remove the wires for one pickup, replace it with the new pickup (see mfr’s instructions for which wire goes to switch, etc.) If you go one-at-a-time wire-for-wire things should go smoothly. You may want to keep the three "ground" wires together for a one-group solder job to a ground point as a last soldering step. I’ve had quite remarkable success with DiMarzio Virtual Vintage Strat pickups (heavy blues virtual vintage is my favorite model) I’ve put these in all my Strats!! Good Luck.

There are a bunch of good sounding distortion pedals that you can use with the Fender. Remember though that no matter what you use, it’ll never sound quite the same, in large part because you need a 4X12 cabinet to really make it sound right.
The Line 6 has the same drawback, it’s an open backed single 12 cabinet, you just don’t get that tight, bassy response without the right cabinet, regardless of the amplifier used. When you’re at the music store, fooling with the amps, try out a few of the different distortion pedals, and see which one you want (try the Boss Heavy Metal, try the Ibanez Tube Screamer, try the Pro Co Rat if they still make it).: hey
: im lookin to buy an amp and im decideing between the marshall dsl 401, the fender hot rod deville 410 or 212, a line 6 amp, and a marshall AVT 150. i really like the tones of the fender, but the distortion is weak, is there a way i could get the fender and get a decent distortion pedal or something to get a marshall old rock and roll distortion. If so what pedal?

Well, if you’re using a gig bag you’re lucky any of the strings are in tune, it’s too easy to bump the machine heads through a soft case like that.
It’s normal for a string to go out of tune eventually…especially if you do a lot of bending…does it stay in once you retune it?
: Hi guy’s.
: I own a Epiphone Les Paul Standard. When I put it in the bag, and take it out on the next day, my 3rd string is a little bit out of tune. Also sometimes when I play, after playing for 5-10 min, i check the tune on my Boss GT-3 and it shows that the 3rd string is a little bit off, but if I wouldn’t use that tunner, I wouldn’t even hear the difference, because it’s very slight.: So……what is going on with my guitar? 🙂

Also, get yourself some replacement pickups. The difference in sound will amaze you. I got a Gibson 500T for the bridge with 496R for the neck. These are very hot.

You have to change where you hold your picking hand…up and down the string to find the different nodes to make a pinch harmonic.
You can also make artificial harmonics by picking the string with your thumb whilst simultaneously using your fingetip to lightly touch the string 12 frets above where it’s being fretted.
: I am not sure how the method (about playing a note with your plectrum in an angle so as your thumb hits the string also) can work. All I can get is two of the same notes played. Im sure I am doing it wrong, if anyone has any other tips or anything.

First of all use your fingertip only. Using the fleshy part of your finger will lead to bad habits and noise from other strings. What it sounds like is that you need to develop strength in that finger. That comes with practice. Keep trying and dont be discouraged. Dont practice only that for an extended amount of time. If your not enjoying the playing experience put your axe down and get away from it for a bit.
Here is a strength exercise…
Low E (6th string)starting with first fret. 1/2/3/4
A (5th ) 1/2/3/4
etc…In other words pick all the notes starting on the first fret and on up. Speed up as long as the notes are still clear. To change things up do it backwards ex. 4/3/2/1
Do this from low E to high e. then move up the neck and do it. Spending the first few minutes of your practice routine on this will help and you should see a difference fairly quickly. It is boring but effective. ->EFFECTIVE<- The more you practice the better you will be able to handle the harder stuff.Finally learn your scales. Learning them backwards and forwards did TONS for my playing and dexterity.

All valve amplifiers have rectifiers. They’re a circuit for converting voltages from the power valves before feeding them to the speakers. Rectifiers can be either valve-based or solid state, with good valve rectifiers providing a nice and distinctive "sag" or slight compression in the initial sound og the note played. The Mesa amps are called "dual" and "triple" rectifiers, because they have, respectively, two and three rectifier stages.

Gar’s comments were excellent. A rectifier ia an electronic circuit which converts AC voltage to DC voltage. Most electric or electronic devices (except for maybe electric motors) actually run on DC voltages, and in all of these devices, some sort of rectifier is needed to make the conversion. Of course prior to the transistor age – these were tube-based circuits. Good Luck! Jay O.

For starters a Fender Squire is not the best guitar. Not trying to flame as I like them (Squire) just fine. Its just that in all likelyhood the quality control lets more get by at the end of constrution process. Also the place you bought it may have not set it up properly.
I would do what was said previously and take it to a tech. String size shouldn’t cause you that much grief. It does need to be set up for whatever size you have on it though. I have a Dean strat copy as a "beater" guitar and it only cost 200.00 I had to set up the action and intonation when I got home. Its not hard to do but I dont advise it if you dont know what you are doing.Again the best bet is to take it to a tech.
: I have a Squier Strat and when I play regular chords, G, D, A, etc. they sound kind of flakey. I’ve noticed that I can easily bend the pitch at the top of the neck by pressing harder on the strings. This isn’t so pronounced as I move down the neck toward the body of the guitar. I’m wondering if the fret wires are too thick or if I should use heavier strings. Any ideas out there?

In defence of my squire (and any others out there), a formula one engine runs crap if its not ‘set up’ well. This is not being asked in an antagonistic tone at all (please don’t think I’m ‘flaming’) but how did the Dean strat copy sound/play befor you set it up.

is it a solid body? if it is a hollow body I dont know, but in a solid body it makes it sound a bit sharper, not too much. I’ve done it with my guitar, and worked well. But keep on searching for more answers… Anyway, if you dont like the results, a luthier can restore the guitar… doesnt seem to be that problematic.

OK, here’s the deal…you can make this incredibly easy and fun if you will simply spend 49 at most of your local music stores right now, and get a Johnson J Box. Two things will happen in your life that you will immediately love. The first is that you will have STEREO outputs from the effects box, and they will be at a true LINE LEVEL, which you will be able to adjust with a knob, not a mouse. You will get all kinds of cool sounds-reverbs, distortions, blah , blah, etc., but you will also get a FREE copy of CAKEWALK GUITAR TRACKS II, a Eight (Stereo) Channel software bundle for you PC, that is incredibly easy to use. It has an on screen MIXER, with a TAPE DECK type control panel…You just plug your J Box into your line card, and away you go! -

Hi tomi…
Have u ever heard about some musical theory that explains the frequencies and notes on an string instrument…well…I won’t be that boring (unless you ask me to…)
harmonics can be made on two ways:
– naturals: usually occur when your passing your fingers of your Left hand…very softly over…the strings (like in the 12th position…)
in fact if you have a guitar…and good pickups…and a loud amp…you’ll see that everywhere you can have natural harmonics, not so clear than those on the 12th, 9th, 7th, 5th (and its octaves) positions.– artificials: these are the ones you want…remember I told you that everywhere has a natural harmonic?
so…what you’re going to do…is to get a natural harmonic with your RIGHT HAND…while your left hand is playing on anywhere on the fretboard…you’ll get the idea…
just pick a with an angle where your thumb hits the string in the next moment you’ve just picked it…
like if you were picking with matchesI don’t know if I helped you…just let me know!
🙂

Hmm.Try raising the action by adjusting the saddle height.If the action is too high,ask your guitar tech for 1.Neck setup or 2.Grind and polish.Buzzing can be a slight problem with older Strats(7 inch radius neck).If this the case, then try adjusting the string height to follow the curve of the neck.

Hmm.I don’t do a lot of palm muting.But the pinky thing seems to be a matter of wrist position and finger placement.Try to get the ball of the pinky directly over the note.You won’t need a lot of pressure
once you’ve changed the pinky position.
Hope this Helps -

Your local guitar tech. can give you a grind and polish.Tell him what area of the neck is troubling you.
Don’t let him "scrape" the neck(if it’s maple)unless it’s bothering you.It’s easy to fuck it up.Make sure your frets are polished,not just grinded.

Hi guy’s. I own a Epiphone Les Paul Standard. When I put it in the bag, and take it out on the next day, my 3rd string is a little bit out of tune. Also sometimes when I play, after playing for 5-10 min, i check the tune on my Boss GT-3 and it shows that the 3rd string is a little bit off, but if I wouldn’t use that tunner, I wouldn’t even hear the difference, because it’s very slight. So……what is going on with my guitar? 🙂 Please help. Thanks.

I just saw three nylon string guitars with electrics. These were thin semi hollow bodys with spacing on the strings matching a classical neck. Built to play electric only, as there was not enough body to resonate well. didn’t notice the make or the price. E mail me and I will get details if you are interested!

Another thing to remember is that the mini-jack on the sound card is not very strong so get a short cable to plug into the sound card 6 to 12 inches long then plug the guitar into that cable. The weight of the guitar cable broke the jack on my sound card. I plug my guitar into the microphone input jack and then adjust the level to keep the sound clean. I got very little signal through using the line level connectors. But Im brave and quite able to replace a sound card if I should blow one up! Two years on the current system with no problems but the broken jack.

Steve
You will need an adapter that will convert your standard headphone plug (Headphone plug is just a reference to the type of plug that was originally introduced some decades ago with the headphones) on your guitar to the new mini jack plug that are found on say your typical walkman ear plugs. You will need a female to male conversion. Radio Shack usually carries these. Be care full though your sound card is in stereo and your electric guitar is in mono ( stereo being two channels left and right where mono is simply one channel). That converter cable has to also change from a mono female plug (where you will connect your guitar cable to) to a stereo mini plug (where you will connect to your sound card).
A guitar usually has a low electrical signal comming out of the cable. This signal is stronger than that from a typical microphone. All of this is simply be carefull where in the sound card you will plug your guitar once you have the conversion cable.
If you plug it into the MICrophone input the guitar signal will be too strong and the volume control of the sound card will not work properly. If you plug it into the LINE IN of the sound card the signal will be a little too weak. But this is the safest place to connect the guitar. Hopefully the amplifier driving your computer speakers is strong enough. If you are doing this simply to record your music then the LINE IN is your best bet. Guitars can have sudden surges in the strength of the signal depending of course on how your are playing the instrument.
The LINE IN will protect your sound card and allow you to play freely.
I hope this helps you some.

: Hey, try using your 1st, 3rd and 4th finger to do your power chords. The 3rd finger gives support to the pinky. Try that out, and just practice moving the shape around. As far as palm-muting, just rest the side of your hand so about 80% of the hand is on the bridge. Make sure your hand is not completly muting the strings. Keep your palm there when you find a sweet spot and just pick. It sould be very percussive. When you get comfortable with that, practice lifting your palm and putting it back down in a rythmic pattern. You can increase your speed and sound over time. CRANK THE DISTORTION!!

But I agree with Steve. You’ll never get an exact replica of the 4X12 cab from a Fender amp. I have used the Marshall "Gov’nor" pedal couple with the BOSS EQ pedal. This was for me a good combination for Rock&Roll sound and modern day cruch(EQ). But I was debating between the BOSS HEAVY METAL and Marshall. I puschased the Marshall because of the Cab simulator that work fairly good. Denis

Hello,
I have only been playing a short time so you might want to get someone elses opinion too, but i also have a squier strat and I don’t have that problem. I am using 9 guage strings I think. It sounds to me that you are just fretting too hard. If you have light strings you only need a light touch to fret them. Just push down lightly with the pads of your fingers and you shouldn’t have that problem.: I have a Squier Strat and when I play regular chords, G, D, A, etc. they sound kind of flakey. I’ve noticed that I can easily bend the pitch at the top of the neck by pressing harder on the strings. This isn’t so pronounced as I move down the neck toward the body of the guitar. I’m wondering if the fret wires are too thick or if I should use heavier strings. Any ideas out there?

Id like to know how to get a high pitched whail from your guitar . Ive heard it before, Ive seen people get a high loud ‘eighties metal’ from their guitar when fingering on a low fret. Ive heard the term harmonics ,and that they are often used. But when I play them ,they just sound like a little bell , not the screaming of a heavy players guitar. Am I doing them (harmonics)wrong?, or is their another method? .Please give me all of your suggestions.Thanks

I have something that might help you out. You sound like you want a screaming harmonic sound. To do this, I do it with my picking hand. I hold the pick regularly, but i put my fingernail of my ring finger down on the string I am picking. If you pick with it on, then lift slightly off, the guitar will go nuts in high-gain situations. Just pick, pull off, and bend your strings as high as you can push. That is the source of the sound. Another thing that could help you is to turn your amp loader, and face it when you want to unleash your harmonics. The closer you stand, the loader it will get. It also helps a lot if you have a wah-wah petal set to the down position. This pumps the highs, which make the shrieking even more nuts.
