Well, I didn’t send my mic back after all. I wrote Rode about the shrink-wrapping and they told me they were no longer doing that. The guy that I bought my mic from said that he was having a bit of trouble because of the shrink-wrap issue. So, evidently I’m not the only person that had a problem...

I had a chance to buy a blonde Les Paul Jr. It was in great condition, looked near mint. I'm not sure what year it was. At the time I had a Fender Strat and thought, I don't need another guitar. The guy was asking only $35.00. Many years later I'm still kicking myself for not buying that...

Firebird, Yep, as a matter of fact I have taken the pickguard off, and mine has three pup cavities in it. I love the sound but I especially love the feel of the neck. It just seems to fit my hands better. I'm not trying to put down American Fenders. I've owned a lot of those as well, and many...

Hey Firebird, I promise that Fender is still making guitars in Japan. If you read my post you know that I just ordered one seven months ago. I agree with you that they are really great guitars IMHO. Don’t take my word for it, just check out the link below. There’s some great info about...

I sent it back for several reasons. When I took the power supply out of the box the power switch was already in the on position. Also, the blue led came on immediately. I read in the manual that the led is not supposed to come on immediately. When I get a product that has been factory sealed...

I bought my Japanese Fender Strat about 7 months ago. Fender Japan no longer export Strats and Teles to the US. However, they still make guitars for the Japanese market. You can order Fender Japan guitars by ordering from Ishibashi Music’s web shop. I took quite a chance by ordering a guitar...

I've decided to send the mic back. When I pay for something new I expect it to come in a factory sealed box. Oh well back to the drawing board...:(

Sorry for the confusion... The box I received was not shrinkwrapped. :confused:

I just got my "new"? Rode NTK today. Is the box supposed to wrapped in shrink wrap? Seems like I have been sent a returned mic. If this is the case, I feel like I am getting less than a new mic. Now I'm debating if I'm going to keep it. Any thoughts? :confused:

Yep, I believe Plush had their priorities backwards. Terrible amplifiers, but great looking furniture!:D

I was born in 1956. My first guitar was a Truetone Rock Star made by Western Auto! Got it when I was twelve years old. Talk about hard to play! Later I graduated to a Fender Strat. I’ve just got to mention my first big amp, it was called a Plush amp, I think it was made by Kustom. It was huge...

Thanks for the advice:) I think having a singers forum is an excellent idea. You have my vote!:D

My favorite guitar is a Japanese 57 RI Strat. It plays better than any other guitar I've owned. Then again, all I've ever owned were Strats. I never did understand all the fuss about Japanese Fenders until I bought one. Great guitar IMHO :)

How 'bout this... Can it be done with authentic sounding results? :)

You are correct Sir!!!

Advice for a wannabe singer Hope you all don't mind me asking a few questions. I mainly have been a guitarist for most of my life. About three years ago I started trying to sing. I went through one of those practise at home voice courses. I noticed that I gained a whole lot in the range of my...

Let my dog stay in the house last night, guess what I found? :)

Astronomers are estimating over one trillion!!! I don't remember exactly who said it, but it was on the news several weeks ago. Reckon there's life out there?

How many planets are in our galaxy???

I have Acid 3.0 and have experimented with cutting parts of loops and then rearranging them without much success. When I change the pitch of the loop it starts to sound odd. Can this be done with acceptable results?? :)
