    Tones to die for!

    God I just dialed in a tone to die for! Sorry had to tell about it (you know? like when you fall in love): A Gibson ES-335 (a 1958 reissue, classic '57 humbuckers), neck pickup tone at 4.5, full volume. Old 0.011 .. 0.052 Dean Markley strings tuned a whole step down (DGCFAD). Plugged into a...

    Solved !!!!Powerchords!!!!!.....skilless

    Can I suggest Fretboard Logic SE from Bill Edwards? (that's both Fretboard logic I and II bundled together). You'll get a whole guitar oriented system of chords built around the "classic" shapes. And you'll get a lot of variations! Its anything less than boring!! ;-)

    Classical guitar action

    Hi, I wondered what's the correct nut and saddle height for a classical guitar. I know how to adjust electrics and acoustrics but classicals have a much higher bridge, but how high? It seems much too high on my guitar and I have difficulty with barres above the 5th fret (I don't have any on...

    Pinch harmonics

    FYI, I got it ;-) Fixed both thumb/angle position and right hand position over the strings and it works great ;-) Still need to practice changes but that's normal. Thanks

    Pinch harmonics

    I create pinch harmonics by touching the outward side of the thumb while picking. Unfortunatly I can't seem to do it consistently! I tried and tried but cannot find *the way* to do it everytime. Some times I get an harmonic, sometimes I get a faint harmonic that dies quickly, sometimes I just...

    Solved If for some reason you could only play one type of music what would it be?

    This question is pretty hard. I like everything, not because I don't care but because I really like all styles of music. Playing it is a bit the same. Playing punk is really fun, playing metal is ballsy/powerful (oh **** yeah), Jazz is often dreamy and romantic or fun or whatever do with it. But...

    the most ugly guitar in the world

    It might be cool if it were a dragon. A naked she devil is moronic.

    be gentle...

    That person might perhaps tend towards countryish style of music? If so, or not, he should try a Telecaster. Simple very effective design. Will accompany that acoustic sound in delightful ways!

    Pickups for custom guitar

    Ok this is a bit out of topic but just want to clarify. I utterly overestimated the price of the pickups, they go for 102$CAN + 15% sales tax. Sorry..

    Pickups for custom guitar

    Well, its clean when you can hear the notes through the distortion. Its hard to say, there's very muddy distortion like an archtop guitar with neck humbucker plugged into a high gain amp, and there's clean distortion (but thin) when plugging a stratocaster with bridge pickup into a high gain...

    Pickups for custom guitar

    Hehe ;-) I did, thinking about a SH-4 JB at the bridge and SH-2 Jazz at the neck. They're not cheap though, about 150$CAN a piece :P But they sound really really good.

    Pickups for custom guitar

    Hi, I'm building my own guitar and I need pickups (duh?). I don't know much about them though and would like advice. The guitar itself will be either made of mahogany, ash or maple (depends on the availability of the wood). The neck will be maple. The design is based on a Gibson SG and so will...

    Where can I buy a Tokai online?

    Tried: http://www.xe.com/ucc/ As far as I can see, the tokai at 256000 Japan Yens equals ~ 2,183 US$, which is more than a Gibson would cost.. What gives?!
