got the shubb capo, ernie ball thumbpicks and korg CA 40 chromatic tuner.

Tuner: great, i dont think theres any better tuner than this one i have(my d string was apparently way out of tune, it picked up as f#)

Shub capo: Just tried it out today for wonderwall, took me a while to figure out how to put it on since it was my first time using a capo. Great, no buzzing or anything. Earlier someone mentioned rubber can be replaced when it wears out, where can u get one online? But I assume this capo will last a long time.

thumbpick: In my opinion, not really the best way to play guitar with it. I find regular picks/even strumming with my fingers much better than thumbpicks. But the price was cheap for this, so I dont regret it. Maybe it takes time to get used to it.

microsark,

thanks for your advice. It is really tempting. But, for some reason, i am really scared of drilling a whole and putting a screw into my precious guitar.. and I don’t have any experience with this because I am still a beginner guitarist.

Any recommendations for straps from musiciansfriend? They are different sizes and such.. tips would be great

okay, straps with strings in the end seem be a big hassle, so I don’t think I am getting those.

The martin strap button seems a lot better. I found the same thing on musiciansfriend. So All I need is that and a regular strap right?

Alright. So either of the capos you mentioned would work for my washburn D10s?

I am also looking for a strap, but I don’t know how it would work for my guitar. I could put one end of a strap to my bottom part of the guitar but then i dont know where i would put the other end. Thanks for the help guys

my guitar

yeah im really enjoying the washburn acoustic I got.
It’s just perfect for me. I carry it in a hard shell case with me whenever I fly(usually once in three months or so)

well, here’s my tip for the new comer.

Just like everyone else saying, try out the actual guitar before buying it. I went to a local instrument store with my friend who has been playing guitar for years and checked out several acoustics. Out of all, for some reason I loved the sound of the washburn acoustic, but the price was more expansive than the one online, so I ordered mine from musiciansfriend.

When I got it, some of my pals played the guitar to check if it sounded right and stuff like that. I heard that if you order guitars online, some of them don’t sound clear as they are supposed to..I wouldn’t go into details because I’m not an expert or anything, but that’s logical for everyone.

I’m definitely glad that I didn’t get a cheap/crappy guitar. Learning guitar requires lots of patience and practice, and I can’t imagine myself learning all the new stuff with a guitar that doesn’t even make clear sounds.

My guitar is absolutely perfect for me right now, and I’m so addicted to it. I just want to play more and more.

well, hope these help.

so, this guitars been fantastic. Im loving it.
I just learned most of notes and classic songs. some chords and all
any websites that you recommend? Ive been using hal leonard’s “learn how to play guitar for beginners”.

Any recoomendations? that;d be great.
Merry xmas everyone
