1. Happy New Year! 2. Ok, back to my topic :) I was watching the Dick Clark New Years special tonight and was wondering if the performers were singing live or if they were lip syncing? I know the lip sync thing is extremely common these days. But does anyone have a good method of picking up...

I keep seeing the "how many guitars do you have" thread and started thinking... What is your logic for having more than one guitar? For me personally, my goal was to try to have an example of a variety of styles - like acoustic, solid body, semi-hollow, bass, etc. So I'm hovering around 12...

Just curious :rolleyes:

About a week ago, I was getting ready to play my acoustic. So I grabbed the guitar (still in the case), set it up on the couch and then went to find my tuner, etc. I come back and I hear the strangest, sort of singing/warbling sound coming from around the couch. There's a water pipe that run...

Hey, I just saw Richard Gilewitz at a Breedlove sponsored clinic/concert at a local music store (Fazzio's). If you haven't heard or seen him, he's very entertaining. He's funny and does some nice stuff on acoustic guitar (6 and 12 string). Look him up on Youtube or Google.

I noticed a radio ad the other night about Best Buy starting to have a musical instrument department... I know they've had some inexpensive guitars and amps in the past. But when I went on their web site today, they actually have a full fledged line up of stuff! ... Martin acoustics, Marshal...

I came up on this site that has pictures and descriptions of various guitar strings. Kind of cool and answered some of my questions about strings. http://www.frets.com/FRETSPages/Musician/Strings/Strings/strings01.html

I put some bronze strings on my Seagull acoustic last week and it really brought out some clarity and bite that I hadn't noticed before. I really love the sound - but they seem to be harder on my finger tips. But it's really worth it! They actually came in by mistake - I thought I had ordered...

I just put some GFS P-90s in my Hamer XT Goldtop to replace the stock Hamer ones. It really nailed the sound I was looking for... Based on everyone's suggestions from my previous post, I leaned toward the Duncan Phatt Cats (P90s) cause that's what I put in my Hamer Echotone. The Phatt Cats are...

Hey, I just picked up a Crate PowerBlock (and case!) for $100. This little thing is fun! I was reading on Harmony Central that some people carried these around not only as a back up amp but also to use as a PA. Not sure if I'd go that far with it, bit it's got a nice sound for what it is. If...

Today's question is... What would be a good replacement P90 Soap Bar Pu'p for a Hamer ATP90 (made in Chine) solid body? I'm sort of looking at the GFS, Wilkinsons, Duncans, Armstrong, etc. Any body have any watchouts? I have stock Hamer P90s in this thing now. It really plays nice and I...

Anyone else have this problem... By the time I get home from work, help the kids with the homework, do my honey-do list, etc., I'm just too frick'n tired to do anything productive in the studio. The weekends are even worse. I do get to play at church routinely - and that's a total blessing...

I took the day off yesterday and was mess'n around learning some stuff out of the July Guitar Player. I went between my Hamer Echotone (335 clone) and my Squire Affinity Tele. Hamer: Semi-hollow body Semour Phatt p'ups (like P90s) Heavier strings (.012 E and wound 3rd) Rosewood neck...

I have to admire all my old heros from my childhood still touring and stuff. But doesn't playing the same songs you wrote 25 years ago and play at least 200 times a year every since get sort of stale? Or is that just me??? I'm sure the first year or two is an incredible ride - but how many...

This is one of those frustrating projects I felt compelled to share. I started putting together a baritone a couple of months ago. Most of the parts were from my MIM strat - but I got a Dano neck to go with it. By chance, my job and personal life got extremely busy about the same time - so I...
