My Schwan food delivery guy told me months ago that he had a old guitar..and maybe I could take a look at it. He explained that his wife is real small and it is a good guitar for her to learn on. I said "sure, bring it by sometime." Well, he finally remembers to bring it along on his route. I...

For those of you who do this as a profession, and maybe some that have had it done lately. I have an old les paul( I know it's been re-fretted at least once.) And a 80's jap. strat. They both haven't been worked on in years. They're not terrible, but I know they have some fret wear, and could...

I got a hankerin' to build a low (1 -5 watt) tube amp from scratch. The key here is to be able to crank it to 10 if I want and still be at a low volume. OK, I know this has probably been discussed a zillion times here. So here's what I'm after, specifically. I just want to find an...

With the price of dvd recorders dropping lately, I was thinking of getting a cheap one. I've seen them as low as 79.00 . I was wondering. If you ran into the audio inputs on the back with the rca's and just recorded audio, what ends up on the disc? What format is it? Could you play it back in a...

Have you seen this ...pretty funny shit. My apologies to Malmsteen fans. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=p_tuLEmWccM&search=yngwie%20god

OK, I was playing my blackface super reverb the other night and it started to fade out. Before I could get to the switch, it popped the fuse. I replaced the fuse and it powers up. If I leave it on standby all is ok. When I switch the standby to on, the rectifier quickly glows cherry red and I...

Actually found some decent wood at Home Depot. Using some relatively cheap pine , but it almost looks like oak-really nice grain. Think I'm gonna' just clear it. It's coming along nicely. Not bad for a novice. Pretty fun too.

Ok, I know this sort of topic has been adressed in the past, but I'm looking for specifics. I've got a 65' blackface super reverb chassis in a head cabinet. Whoever had it before did away with the 4x10 combo cab. I know it's supposed to drive a 2 ohm load. I use it with 8 ohms. It sounds great...

Is the contact cleaner radio shack sells OK? I need to clean the pots in my amp and was just going to use it since it was readily available.

Okay, I haven't used it in a long time and got it out to do some programming. I could have sworn that, in the past I was able to do an open hi-hat sound... Like when you hit it with it closed , and then open it, and close it again.....PPSHHHP! Is this setting available??? Just can't...

I'm looking at picking up a cheap compressor. I mean really cheap, 50- 60 bucks. Looking at a DBX mc6, and a behringer autocom pro mdx1400. which do you think? Also, do you have any other choices for the financially challenged?

I heard from someone the other day that you could get health coverage if you were in the musicians union. Can anyone confirm this?? If so....is it any good?? What other options are there for a fulltime player with kids?

Does anyone have some tips for getting better cymbal sounds out of an SR16? The drum sounds aren't bad but the crash cymbals are really cheesy!!! HELP!!! I don't want to buy real cymbals and have to dub them into the drum tracks.

OK, I just bought a fostex a 8 really cheap. I had to clean the heck out of the heads. They had a dark colored residue all over them ,as well as the capstan and pinch roller. The record/playback head looks like it might actually have some corrosion on it.I recorded the same audio on all the...

This is a pretty dumb question. How do I master my tascam 424 to the computer and wind up with an mp3?? I've used the line in and done a wave file, but it takes a lot of memory. Is there another program I need?? I"m using Windows xp office,(NERO) and have a decent sound card...

Just bought a fostex a-8 8 track 1/4 in......Can anyone recommend a good brand of tape? I 've done lots of cass. stuff, but don't know much about reel to reel. Is there a certain type that should be used with this deck?..............any help would be appreciated!!!
