    Looking for a new amp. Thinking about a VHT Special 6

    Cabs are something I would personally try to pick up used. Find a 1 or 2x12 for $150-200 then have $400 or so to spend on a head. I bought my 1960 4x12 for $300 on craigslist, I'm sure you could find a 1 / 2 x12 for a lot less.

    Looking for a new amp. Thinking about a VHT Special 6

    Nope, best smallest amp I've heard/used is a Orange Tiny Terror, literally blew my mind. It's on my to buy list. If you can find a used one, it'd probably be around your price range. Jet City Pico Valve is another awesome amp, you could get a new one for $300. Great little amp. And coming in...

    The Fender "Kurt Cobain" Jaguar, and other similar replicas.

    Haha nice, I had a buddy of mine who did something "kind of" similar, ended up taking a MIM tele body he hated, bolted on and rigged up a epiphone sg neck, swapped the pickups, then painted in florescent blue and green with white and purple paint just thrown at it with a paint brush. Looked...

    Small Drum Room Acoustic Treatment

    It's called Room. EQ. Wizard. Here's a link to the site: Here. You basically use this as a tool to show a graph of where your problem areas are (peaks and dips in certain frequency ranges). The site does a great job on explaining everything and just do a little googling for any extra info on...

    The Fender "Kurt Cobain" Jaguar, and other similar replicas.

    Haha sweet. I just feel like if I ever bought a tele, I'd ruin it in the eyes of everyone else and swap EMGs into it lol, a little John 5 inspired piece or something.

    Small Drum Room Acoustic Treatment

    What matters is the density of the material your using though right? Density of an absorption material (whether it be foam, insulation, what ever) and the surface area it covers, that's what determines how much energy is absorbed, along with intensity of the sound waves. I mean, I have a...

    The Fender "Kurt Cobain" Jaguar, and other similar replicas.

    Same here, Not a 91, but a 95 MiM strat that I got from my shitty Marshall MG amp I sold a last year. 200 cash and a guitar, I couldn't pass it up. Silly noobs :p Really haven't played a fender I've liked other than this one and on rare occasions a random telecaster in a pawn shop or something.

    Online certificate programs etc

    They're definitely great programs for certain people, I've met a few people that have gone to full sail and one of my best friends is in his last year. He loves it. A few of the people I met though, have a job, but are working locally as a floor salesman at frontend audio's showroom here in...

    Costs and licenses for renting a building for a studio.

    Why not just have a professional studio at home? That way your not paying 2 rents/mortgages on buildings, you can write off a good portion of your home on taxes. I'm in the planning stages of building my studio up, and I've weighed the budgets and idea of having a separate business building...

    The Easiest Way To Connect With Brand New Fans

    If your blasting 100s of thousands of people...maybe. How many people from 16-23 or so are office workers? I've always worked with having every person I've met from a show in my phone. Me and my band would personally take the time and call everyone when we were having a show. I did a write...

    complementary EQing

    may seem obvious, but the best way would be to test each out, cut at multiple spots and then try just cutting 1 or 2 spots. Assuming your mixing in a DAW, you can just save what ever you do first as a preset and then try a second attempt and save that one and then you can easily go back and...

    Submissions via Soundcloud

    Well if they're asking for submissions, it's going to get listened to. As Ido1957 implied though, whether it's a few seconds or the whole song is another thing.

    Ever hear of/use Tunecore?

    Haven't used them personally. I do have a few friends that use Tune Core though, they didn't have any complaints for what it's worth. I mean there's tons of services like that, and I really haven't heard of any that are necessarily "bad", no horror stories. Personal preference and whether...

    Email list??? Really bro? Try to be a little creative, average people don't check their email daily, or even weekly. Let me know how that works out for you :laughings:

    question involving file type and quality loss

    Gotcha. I knew that in the back of my head, but I think I confused myself with the word "converter" lol So, in the situation that I explained in my OP, what are some of the remedying factors that I should be looking for in the chain. Is it more than likely that a lot of it comes back down to...
