    Guitar wiring

    Well, I've just bought a Yamaha 8x4x24 SCSI CDRW and by the looks of it, it kicks ass (I've only burnt 1 audio cd - but it plays on all 4 cd players in the house!!). Just a few questions for ya all: I doubt I'll be using CD-RW much, but in case I do how many times realistically can you use a...
