Thanks guys. I really appreciate it. Does the stereo amp (50W per channel) give you the same power as the mono 100W? I really don't understand the electronics/audiophysics of the one versus two versus four speaker issue. Can anyone give a brief tutorial???

how will it sound compared to the single 12" or the half stack?

I like Seagulls, but I would also check out a Martin DX1.

This is for my son. He is 14 and writes songs, mostly emo stuff, and is forming about 6 different bands at any given time. Anyway, he needs an amp (he'll be playing a mexican strat through it), at first for a battle of the bands thing at the high school and hopefully for other such venues...

writing lyrics doesn't have to be like writing poetry. i agree that you can learn it from books or just sing what sounds good, and it can be part of a really good song. look at commercial songwriters like Dianne Warren. if you want to write something truly meaningful and artistic, that's...

How does one send music to the host of a podcast; just by sending them an e-mail? How does one start a podcast of his/her own?

Tree, as I started out saying, I think it happened to begin with because he left the thing lying around any old place. Isn't there debate about sound hole or other in-case humidifiers? As I recall Breedlove recommends keeping it in the case in an appropriately-humidified room (and not against...

solved Okay, it's fixed. As the educated know, Farview's original advice was correct. I'm sorry for being so careless and dense. It was helpful for me to find this link: http://www.fretnotguitarrepair.com/trussrods.htm -- which gave me the size of the allen wrench I needed (5mm) and some...

Thanks........

I know. I wouldn't bring it back there except that it's under warranty and Sam Ash is an authorized dealer.

Back bowing, that's the phrase. Well, if I didn't need any help I wouldn't have asked for advice. I do appreciate the advice that you all have given, although I could do without the one or two arrogant comments. If I'm bringing it in I'm bringing it back to Sam Ash, which is kind of a pain in...

The only problem with that advice is that the Martin DX1 does not have an adjustable truss rod. :) Actually, my strategy seems to be working. It's gotten much better. Probably more because it's being kept in the case at a stable humidity for awhile. It makes sense though. All necks are...

I bought my 14-year-old son a Martin DX1 http://www.musiciansfriend.com/srs7/g=home/search/detail/base_pid/514814/ which has been great except that he leaves it lying around all the time in various locations in the house, and, I think as a result of that, the neck has reverse-bowed (I don't...

I'm $19 over the limit, but... Pignose.... http://www.musiciansfriend.com/srs7/g=guitar/search/detail/base_pid/489052/

8 Miles High is really a pretty complex song; it's hard to just wing that one. But the glass is half full -- Goin' Down the Road sounded pretty good. It was also one of the rare occasions when you and I got to play the guitar at the same time (that is, two separate guitars at the same time :p )

I saw the first part last night. Required viewing for all songwriters. http://www.pbs.org/previews/american_masters_dylan/

What's up? Are you okay, Gordo?

Excellent. I'm still curious about how some of the stuff came out. And I really miss all of Jerry's posts talking about how much he thinks he sucks.

how's all ya'all doin'?

Playing the guitar is like sex. It's supposed to hurt a little. Also, in addition to what has already been said, maybe you push down too hard or slide around your fingertips a little. If you can keep your left hand relaxed that may help.
