I have to go with top of the line Martin

Martin HD-35...o yeahya

: I have recently inherited a 1960 electric hollowbody guitar and I am trying to find out the value. It is a "Roy Smeck" guitar, and the only numbers I can find inside it are 165H58. It is in perfect condition. I can't seem to find any info on it any where so any help would be appreciated. Thanks.

Hi, I had an R.S. blonde, hollow body, double pickup in 64-65. I found that it was made by Harmony. The Blue Book of Guitars seems to lend credit to this. They don't appear to be "collectables" at this time. But I wish that I still had mine. I got $52.00 trade in on a Gretsch 6120(64). Do you have a picture? Sorry I can't give you any info on the #'s inside your guitar. Makes you wonder about that "H",doesn't it? We know it's hollow. Good luck and good health to you, Douglas

send me some new songs with gitar chords

: Does anyone know where I can obtain parts or schematics for these tape echo machines?

Did you get a schematic yet I have a photocopy of one, just the circuit.

You probably have a bad cable, or channel from your snake to the board. If the shielding is damaged, you'll pick up radio interference, as it's then basically acting as an antenna.

Anybody out there that can help? I have a sixties model epiphone 12 string acoustic guitar that I received from my mother. It was my uncles. he died at a young age and my mother kept it in her closet to remember him. it is still in close to mint condition on its original hard case. The tag on the inside of the body reads Epiphone Serenader style FT85 No.437794
Don't want to part with it, just interested in it's value thanks for the help.

Just get some twine .. rap it around and yank it out

: Please o please help me!!!!I can't get the freakin peg out of my acoustic guitar to change the strings. It is jammed in. People have told me that it is fairly easy to get the peg out but I'm finding it impossible!!!!!!!!Help me please.

I have found that if I start a tiny wood screw directly in the center of the peg where it's broken off, then I can tighten it down far enough so it's solid in the peg. Then I just VERY carefully get under the head of the screw with some needle-nose pliers, and pull the peg straight up out of the hole. I always use some cardboard or thick paper on the bridge to protect it from scratches. Hope that helps.

Vai uses Carvin amps, and Lexicon gear, mostly. The key to getting that kind of tone is to lower your gain a bit, and use a GOOD compressor and squash the heck out of the signal. High gain destroys the clarity of the notes, but by lowering your gain a few notches, then boosting the midrange, dropping the lows a bit, and using a dbx compressor (or similar high quality compression unit), you get the sustain that everybody thinks is super high gain. A tiny bit of reverb, or a short doubling delay will help a bit for the solo tones.

Oh yeah...he also uses a Fernandes Sustainer pickup in his JEM, or some of them....although not used in a real heavy way, it gives that extra sustain even at clean settings. I have a sustainer sys in my Ibanez RG 550...works gr8 in the right situations.
