I just bought a guitar identical to this for $40.00. Mine is not in this condition and I'm restoring it (started last night). The previous owner repainted it and masked his name into it and botched the whole job but the guitar is original and complete. Stupid me, I should have taken a picture...

I regularly cruise the Kijiji/ebay sites just to check out guitars and equipment and I have a question for all you who know about such things. I'm seeing a lot of small amps for sale and some are listed as "acoustic" amps. I was wondering what is the difference between an acoustic amp versus an...

I'm feelin' pretty good today. I just got my old Boss Chorus CE-1 back from my brother. He was cleaning out his basement (our old practice room) and found it in a box along with my Boss EQ (GE-10). I thought this pedal was long gone. I just cleaned it up and it works as well as ever. I did a...

I just ordered a new bridge for my Telecaster that will give me an acoustic feature for live performance. My old bridge has three saddles and the new one will have six. I did some online research and decided on the Fishman passive piezo rather than a battery/preamp from Fishman or LR Baggs...

On Tuesday morning, at 6:55 A.M., my 94 year old Mom passed in her sleep. She was an incredible person, she loved life and people and music and poetry. When she was 91 yrs., she wrote two blues songs and a poem about her dad and growing up in the coal mines in Alberta. Mom had crippling...

This may sound silly but I'm not sure if using a DI box for bass recording would have any advantage for me. I have always plugged the bass into my mixer and recorded from there. I don't use a bass amp because I don't have one. My impression has been that a DI is used so the player can use his...

Love the bike. I have a 2003 Silverado 1100. Also love the fender. I wouldn't mind having one of those to compliment my '73 Strat. My last purchase was a head of lettuce for lunches. If I win the lottery, LETTUCE FOR EVERYONE!

Here's another I like your view better.

Here's my view.

Recently, I came into the possesion of an old amplifier and a decent 12" speaker. I am going to build a small Leslie style rotating speaker cabinet out of it. I have a record turntable that I can rig for two speed and I can see the design in my imagination, but I thought I'd throw the Idea at...

This is the recordio that I spoke of in the thread "ever heard of a recordio". I hope I did this right. I'll hit submit and find out.

Years ago, my uncle had a t.v. repair shop in a small town. When he retired, he took all the old left behind t.v's. and radios and stored them in the barn on the family farm. I went out recently and went through the left-overs and snagged some old radios and also a unit called a "Recordio". This...

I Love this guitar. It's a '73 Strat that I refinished myself with Texas Specials and a Floyd Rose whammy and a stained maple pick guard. Truly a fine instrument. The extra toggle switch activates the bridge pickup in any of the 5-way switch positions. Obviously it is redundant in the first...
