    My first deconstruct and questions

    So I wanted to see the inside of my 488mkii. Maybe clean things, see how things looked. Whatever. It took forever. Did they really need 4597561268 screws to hold it together? LOL Well, what struck me was that I can't find a capstan belt anywhere!!!! I'm sure it's there somewhere, but where...

    Recording live show from buss

    Ok, so next month I'm playing a show. I'm pretty stoked. I figured I'd take a buss off the mixer and record it to my stereo interface. I'm going to be micing my acoustic at the show. If I mic it in stereo, which would you think would be best . . . 1. Record vocals to one input of the interface...

    Guitar Overhaul

    A while ago I bought a cheap old archtop guitar. I knew she needed work. I thought it'd be a low risk way for me to get into guitar repair. Someone had put a shim under the neck (presumabely to higher the action for slide playing but I don't know.) Well I finally got the neck off. So I'm going...

    Trailer Conversion

    So I had an idea a while ago to buy a cheap trailer home and convert it into a studio. I was wondering if any of you have done this. I'm a ways out from being able to move on it, but just thought I'd get some ground work . . . rather ground advice. Good idea? Bad idea? What do you all think?

    My first real reel to reel

    Ok, so a while ago I asked you all about the Teac A-6010. Well I finally have some pictures for you. And along with those pics I have some questions. With no tape on it, the transport seems to work fine. If I tell it to fast forward the take up reel's post spins quickly. In fast rewind, same...

    Fair Trade?

    Hey guys. I'm realizing that I really would like to have a hollowbody instead of my strat. It's a 2004 Players Strat. Nice guitar. I love it. But the sound I want for most of what I do is better found in a hollowbody. I want to try to trade someone for a Epi Casino or Gretsch G5122 (or 5120.)...

    Do I take this risk?

    You all are so much more knowledgable than I am. I have found, what I think to be, a good deal on E bay. I know it's ebay and it's a crap shoot, but I thought I'd see what you all think. Is this worth the risk...

    Bummer (or the one that got away)

    So I'm on holiday with my family right now. We were visiting her family in the Austin area. I did a craigslist search and came up with a Fostex R8 .... in San Antonio. I know most people here prefer the Tascam/Teac units. But I suffer from proximity disorder . . . I don't live in near...

    Teac a-6010

    I just found a TEAC A-6010 for an absolute steal!!!! I'm told that it is a four track recorder, but it only has two VU meters. I guess you can record two tracks then "flip the tape" and do two more. But what I really need to know is, can it operate in a mix down deck capacity? I don't have a ton...

    Guitar finish (mutt or light maybe)

    How does the thickness of finish affect the sound of a guitar (either acoustic or electric?) Could my tone be improved by sanding finish off my guitars or is this just a stupid idea? Thanks.

    EHX Memory Boy (long post)

    I just got this in yesterday. So I'm going to share my personal opinion on this pedal. (Please note that I am not a proffessional and that my gear experience is limited.) Out of the box the pedal seems sturdy. There were some small paint defects but nothing worth sending back for. The on/off...

    hard to find specs

    I went pawn shopping yesterday and fell in love with a cheap guitar. The sound was amazing (at least to my ear) and I love the way it played. So I bought it. BUt I am curious about the specs, just for gee wiz info. Anyone know where I can find this type of info? The manufactrurer website was no...

    cabs and heads

    I can't find the wattage of the speaker cab, how safe would this combination be? http://www.guitarcenter.com/Vox-V112TV-1X12--Guitar-Speaker-Cabinet-620390-i1453131.gc with http://www.guitarcenter.com/Vox-Night-Train-NT15H-15W-Guitar-Amp-Head-867669-i1446398.gc or...

    Classic 30

    I found a classic 30 for, what I think to be, a really good price. I hear they're pretty killer for live use, but can they be pulled back enough to record without pissing off neighbors? What do you all think? (I promise, I'm almost done asking pre-buying questions.)

    Training Aides

    Can anyone recommend some resources that will help me progress beyond my current ability? Online, Books, DVDs, whatever. Anything that you have used with success would be very helpful. Thank you.
