It's been a long time since I rock and rolled... :p I recently picked up an Electro Harmonix Deluxe Memory Man, and this tune was born from playing with that and written for a friend going through some stuff. Hope you like it... The mix is maybe a little rough, and the playing was done in a...

I have a 3-day auction on eBay, but would end the auction early for a forum member. Check it out: http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&category=47069&item=2579496408 You can email me at KaBudokan@aol.com .

This idea is stolen from a thread over at the PRS Gear Forum... We've all heard various cool (or not so cool) stories about rock bands and guitar players... What (preferably true) stories have you heard (or experienced) related to famous guitar players? One of the cool ones from that thread...

Just a quick note to you Aardvark users on Windows 2000 or XP - a new batch of drivers came out in late December. I installed the drivers about 5 or 6 weeks ago, and they're MUCH more stable. I'm on Windows 2000, and the only time I used to have to reboot was due to soundcard issues - the...

Around October of last year I started thinking of building a guitar. I put a good amount of thought into it and talked around quite a bit before finally deciding on the specs, etc. I ordered the parts in November, and I finally have completed my USA Custom Guitars superstrat. Specs: Alder...

I just met one of my friend's sons today. Very cool guy, and he's got some nice equipment. He showed me two of his most recent acquisitions: An old Fender pedal steel, and an OLD tweed Fender Champ amp - he thought it was maybe a '62 or so. It's one of those with one knob. Both in perfect...

I just got my new Guitar Center mailer, and they are blowing out the Yamaha DG Stomp preamp for $140. That's a GREAT deal. I've been using the Stomp for a while, and it's a great preamp - I liked it better than the POD and J-Station back when I bought mine. Check it out if you're in the...

I recently changed the pickups around on an old beater guitar I've had for a while. I had some Duncan Hot Rails in it before. While I was waiting for my Lawrence pickups to arrive, I changed the wiring scheme to experiment a little. I did a weird rigging I had found with a 5 way switch, using...

Reverse, record, rereverse, reverse, mix, etc. Sister Blue :) http://www.shadyneighbor.com/Music/sister%20blue.mp3

I've looked around and can't seem to find any kind of info about this stupid question that must be so obvious that I can't believe I don't know. I've done a few simple wiring jobs on guitars, but nothing extensive. My next project will require extra wire besides just using the lead from the...

I was bored today, so I recorded some guitar loops. Figured I'd share the wealth of my crappy playing, so... There's about 20mb of loops here, but they're compressed into a 10mb winrar file. http://www.shadyneighbor.com/loops/HappyLoops.rar That should take you to the loops. You can check...

Called the toll free number and talked to the man himself. It only took about 30 seconds before I was totally lost in the conversation (Lost meaning both amazed, and also lost because of some of the content.). Seriously, I said my guitar was made out of swamp ash and he went off about the...

I am finally getting around to putting an old guitar I have back together. it's a Samick, and it's a pretty decent guitar - swamp ash, nice neck, etc. A long time ago, in a far dumber state of mind, I replaced the pickups with Seymour Duncan Hot Rails. I am now thinking of putting in a decent...

Just for reference folks, Aardvark has finally fixed the issue with Windows Media Player and MP3s for their 2000 drivers. Go to their driver page to download the maintenance release. I'm finally able to listen to music without getting frustrated. :)

Can it be? No depressing Pink Floyd soundalikes with lots of profanity? What the fuck?!?!?! :D OK... I wrote and recorded this tune the other night. There's a bunch of guitar tracks and... well, there's about 25 vocal parts layered in the chorus. Too much? lol Check it out, and I'd love...

I emailed tech support at Aardvark checking on the ETA of the next release of Windows 2000 drivers for my LX6 (and 2496, etc). I had been told previously they expected to release them in the middle of May. Update as of 5 minutes ago: ETA 2-6 weeks. I've been LOVING Windows 2000 and the...

OK, here's a tune I wrote last night and recorded between then and this afternoon. Not much to write - I picked up the bass and wrote the little progression, which I looped up in Acid. It's just a LONG guitar jam - a wankfest, though a bit more melodic than shredding (since I can't shred...lol)...

Aardvark finally released their Windows 2000 drivers, and I've been trying to get everything playing nice on Win2k for a few days. Everything seems "relatively" ok, except that I am having trouble with media players. Windows Media Player is REALLY slow - it takes about 5 seconds of freezing the...

This is a tune I finished a few weeks ago. I kept putting off "mastering" it, and when I finally pulled it up, I wasn't sure if I would do anything to it, and I was pretty happy with the sound as is, so... It's a real simple reggae tune - nice and upbeat and happy. If anyone can tell me where...
