: I'm going to buy my first acoustic, I have a yamaha electric. I really love the rich sound of the 12-strings and am leaning towards an Alvarez 12-string. Could somebody tell me the pros and cons on 12-string versus 6-string acoustics for a beginner? Thanks in advance

12 strings have wider necks to accomodate the extra strings, and may be hard for a beginner to chord. Also, the six extra strings mean six more strings to keep in tune and more maintenance. That's about all the cons I can think of. I would suggest a six string ather than 12 string for the beginner...

Hi i just read your statements about colleti guitars from last year, we also are keen to learn more about them. My mum who works in a school has found a colleti guitar been used in the classroom itself by 7 year olds! As a keen guitarist myself i am willing to buy this guitar off the teacher for a small sum of money (since shes crazy and knows nothing of them) and refubish it, and make it appealing again. I was wondering since statement about wanting to gain further information about these guitars was done a year ago now, if you now have any information on these beautiful guitars?

SURE... I AM JUST ONE HELPFUL PERSON !!!

: CAN ANYONE HELP ?

I hate too say it but yes Metallica did SUE napster. They SUED them good. But Metallica don't care about making money. Most of the money made from selling cds goes to record companies anywway (like 95%) so why anyone would bother sueing napster because they are getting ripped off. WIth metallica their music is their life, their love and for some (especially James and Lars) their heart. Imagine coming home and seeing someone screwing your significant other. You would want to beat the crap out of them. With Metallica distributing their music over the internet is (screwing with their significant other) and since you can't beat napster up you have to SUE them.

: i'am new at guitar and i need some help with my chords can someone please send me the tablature for e a g d and c?

Welcome to the world of musical expression through the guitar. I would highly suggest that you go to any music store and buy a chord book. There are litereally thousands of chords, and having a book allows you the flexability to "study" and practice anywhere. Sure, you can get chords off the computer, but who wants to sit in front of a computer while playing/practicing the guitar? The chord books are inexpensive and have a vast amount of usable information in them. Good luck with your endeavors to play the guitar, and remember, practice, practice!!

Strangly enough, my dad bought one of those for me sometime around the same time you got yours! I too have been looking to replace it for sentimental reasons.
Recently I lost the bid for one on eBay. I was very dissapointed I must say.
I was wondering if you had any luck finding one for yourself.
The photo of mine was sort of an accident. It just happened to be in the background of the photo and is a very grainy, dark photo. Too bad.
Here I am searching the web today for one and I came across your request.
Well, just curious.
Thanks,
Allen Storey

: It was a thin hollow-body single cutaway electric with sunburst finish; two raised pickups in clear plastic mounts; a white pickguard mounted above the guitar with a small bracket; 4 pots for treble/bass and volume, and a toggle switch selector.

: Can you help me identify this guitar with the little info I've provided? Do you have one for sale, either now or in the future? Thanks!

I totally agree !!!!

I had a similar problem but this is common in 12 year olds, they go thurough puberty and their voices change, so don't worry about it as it goes away. Just make sure she stays real thin and hot though because looks are more important for a pop career.

: My 12 y/o daughter is a prodigy 6 octave vovalist that has never had lessons and recently she has developed one high note that when she sings it her voice cracks and jumps to other note??? It is starting to go away now but what causes this. Is it just a growing stage? This had her worried as she wants to break wine glasses and is aspiring to become the best vocalist. Thanks for your help.

Music123 should have them for you

: Does anyone know where i can get relacement tortise shell tuners for my 1936 #017 Martin? my tuners are falling apart and i would like to replace them with originals if possible.

: anyone know whats up with fender and their lace sensor pickups? seems like they are starting to phase them out. too bad

I haven't heard that they were phasing them out. They are definately remarkable pickups with a clear bell like tone... Buddy Guy can make em walk and talk!! They still come standard in the Buddy Guy signature model strat..

They never caught on so they are replacing them with the leather series.
