Man that thing is a beauty!!!! I forgot, I've heard that Gibson has recently started putting the Steinberger Gearless Tuners on at the factory. The old Gibson version tuners are the only thing I've ever heard negative about Firebirds, and it seems yours is new enough to not worry about that...

The Elliot Easton Tikibird looks nice and it comes as a lefty too!

I have 2, both Kala. One is a soprano and the other is a tenor. I wasn't playing in bands for a while and these guys became fun to play with around the house. I got a Beatles Ukulele book, but I would try and figure out songs I knew on the guitar and apply them to the ukulele (D'yer M'ker and...

When I was playing bass in bands some of the songs that I like playing bass to were: (that I can think of off the top of my head) The Boys Are Back In Town - Thin Lizzy Help, Come Together - Beatles I'm Burning For You - Blue Oyster Cult Killing In The Name Of - Rage Against the Machine Sober -...

Email Fender and ask if both guitars use the same bridge.

No offense was taken. I thank you for your willingness to take the time to post pics and explain (even more than once). This thread has helped my imagination and pushed me to figure out how I could do a build next year. I would start with just fabricating a body (after the purchase of some...

I have band practice/jam sessions in my attached garage on a regular basis. In N.C. we'll sweat it out during the summer with fans and in the winter I use one of the portable plug in heaters that's tan and looks like the old radiator style. If it's cold enough to warrant using, I'll turn it on...

How tall are the rooms?

JCH, just want to say I dig your builds! They suit my need for elegant subtlety. I know there are a few more builders up here, would y'all go into a little bit of detail explaining how you achieve fretboard radius and rounding the back of the neck (are there jigs involved? JCH, maybe some "work...

Reel, Awesome collection! I dig the Ibanez guitars with the old style headstock! And I like all the Danelectro's too!

Here are 2 forums on the 688 that should be helpful : https://homerecording.com/bbs/general-discussions/analog-only/tascam-688-disassembly-hopefully-repair-301982/ and https://homerecording.com/bbs/user-forums-brand/tascam-user-forum/midistudio-688-problems-282166/ I will be attempting the...

The general rule of thumb is run signal cables together and run power cables together. Cross signal and power cables at 90 degree intersections and never run them close together in parallel. If you plug your guitar into an amp in that room, while not running any of your recording gear, does it...

You should get out there and meet people/musicians. Look at Craigslist in the community section, there's a forum for musicians. I'm sure like most cities, there's a lot of bands looking for a singer. Go to music stores, they usually have a classified billboard. Go check out some open mic nights...

Cool song! Kind of a Ben Folds vibe , sounds good! I don't think you'd get kicked out of the Analog Forum posting that pic!

I agree with keeping an eye out for a cheap 4-track recorder (look locally first, so you can give it a test drive) and then you can use the deck you have now to mix down to. A standard cassette deck is designed to play stereo tracks on each side of the cassette (Side A=Left/Right going this way...
