I have a Larrivee D-03 that comes with stainless steel tuners and ebony knobs. The problem is that they have a dead spot, even if I thighten the screw in the knob. They turn around the screw for a small distance, then start to turn the tuner. It does this on all of them. It's annoying. I want...

This is off John Mayer's second album, song entitled Only Heart. Just wondering how he gets that sound in the left channel. Sounds like a hollow body electric with single coil pickups. Can someone tell me what they think it is, because I dig that tone. I think that alot of it comes from the...

I've been listening to John Mayer's second album for a while, and I was wondering if anyone could tell me what kind of guitar tone this is? Is this coming from a hollow body? If so, it sounds like it has single coil pickups. How is he getting that sound? I'm sure the compression also gives it...

I own a larrivee acoustic and play mostly rhythm with a pick, and a little bit of finger picking. Obviously, this one did not come with a pickup. I'm looking for a very natural sound from a pickup, something that doesn't sound like tin, but captures the body and warmth. I plan on using it for my...

Hey guys. When I plug an amp into any wall socket in my basement, then either a guitar, or bass (either humbucker or single coil pickups), when i turn my guitar in any direction except for one specific one, I get a large amount of noise through the amp. It's like it's acting like an antenna. How...

Apex 185 mic's come as a matched stereo pair. When I plug my 185 into my mackie 1202 with any type of cable, it has a pretty low amount of noise... as soon as I add ANY mic to my board in any mic pre, the apex one starts emitting alot more noise... I tried the other one of the mic's, same...

When building Ethan's Traps; Will this insulation work? http://www.roxul.com/sw34143.asp And if so, I have a question for either Ethan or someone who can answer this correctly. I do not want to drill into my wall, becuase where I am living I cannot damage the walls besides putting a couple...

I was at a music store checking out different sets of monitors, and the two that caught my eye were obviously the m-audio bx5's as well as the tannoy reveal passives. After listening to both, I found the m-audios to not even compare to the tannoys in how full they sounded. The price is a little...

Simple question... quite broad. I want to know if this is ACTUALLY a good mic for drums and acoustic or what. I can pick this up for around 200 Canadian. Any responses are appreciated. http://www.sennheiserusa.com/newsite/productdetail.asp?transid=000984
