    Very simple Roland SH-201 question!

    I am torn between the Juno G or the SH201. I prefer the SH - suits my needs better but I would absolutely love the acoustic guitar presets that are on the Juno. Does the SH201 have these or are there no organic instruments on them?

    Behringer V-Amps

    Can anyone explain the difference between the V-Amp and the BASS V-amp?? Although this might sound fairly obvious, they both appear to be for normal guitars. I wouldnt want to buy the Bass model and miss out on guitar effects and vice versa. Is there a difference in them? Cheers

    Just got one of these for my dad and i havent a clue how to work it! Thought it would be easy. He wants to record from a tape deck onto a CD.

    Gear League Tables?

    Sometimes you just cant work out as a newbie the scale of things as far as gear goes. When you want to upgrade gear there is nothing definitive to work towards. Not in writing anyway. What are peoples opinion on certain types of gear? Where would they fit in the great scheme of things? Would...
