    New Guitar - Martin 000-15

    Haha! I put my face in the soundhole of my Martin more often than my girlfriend's... ...cooking. What did you think I was going to say? :p

    New Guitar - Martin 000-15

    You're right! That is very cool. That "new Martin" tree smell rules! :D

    Download and Mix Contest

    LOL I like that effect on your "craptasticly rediculous" mix when the vocal comes in. I assume thats reverse reverb? I recall you telling someone else about that in another thread so I played with it a bit on one of my songs and thought "so, that's how they do that! (duh)" :D I appreciate...

    Download and Mix Contest

    I did bother to quote this "ridiculous" post, so there. So, would you say the tracking was better or worse than your grammar skills?

    Why guitarists get all the fun!!?

    That depends on the guitarist! :) A proper pedal board makes a few pedals very easy to manage. I'm with the philosophy that "less is more" in most cases though. :D (EDIT: Not that I'm interesting, just saying.)

    Computer causing noise in preamps

    That would be my first guess. Did you leave the top off for cooling purposes? ...that also makes me wonder if a fan might be generating some interference but after some Googling I can't find anything except articles on taming the audible noise fans can create. I shielded my pickup cavity in...

    Pay $1300, or be a musician and learn to tune?

    My bad. I thought the additional line re: satirist was added commentary by lpdeluxe. :)

    My Studio Construction Thread

    This is VERY nice, but I'm not jealous at all. Nope. Not one bit. Dammit. :p I would love to have the time to build something like this, and more importantly, the finances. Awesome job! :D Is this for your personal use, or do you do this as a business?

    Pay $1300, or be a musician and learn to tune?

    Gee, I wonder if GP is afraid of losing ad revenue? How sad that they have to be bitches to the advertisers who's products (sometimes) SUCK. A product that works half the time is shit. I know a few guitarists that use lots of alternate tunings and they can tune their guitars within 15-20...

    happy together

    Haha, cool. I like it. It sounds sarcastic, like you're rolling your eyes the whole time you're singing it... to a bitchy girlfriend... :D

    Pay $1300, or be a musician and learn to tune?

    I seriously doubt any of us take this too seriously. I know I haven't lost any sleep over it. This is the guitar/bass forum, so why not discuss it? :) I posted this after watching a video on the manufacturer's site. The inventor (or owner of the company, not sure) said something to the...

    Americana Crap

    You're lucky to have the financial leverage. They keep you around because you buy the equipment. ;) Very good song, by the way. Good writing, I like the lyrics. :)

    How is an unreliable and inaccurate tuner going to make anyone's life easier? :confused: EDIT: ...and I think everyone has already taken your advice. Those who don't want it won't buy it. Those who do and can afford it, will.

    MIM vs MIA Strats

    It's printed on the Internet, so it must be true. Anyone else's personal experience is just ass-talking.

    MIM vs MIA Strats

    I would recommend that for any guitar you're going to purchase. I sold my brand new American Made Gibson 333 just a couple of months after purchasing it because I hated it. Plus, I still feel lucky that I like the Custom Shop Strat that I bought blindly through eBay. Ok, really like. :)

    MIM vs MIA Strats

    I finally figured out where I found the schematic to wire my MIM strat: http://www.acmeguitarworks.com/pdf/WiringDiagram_Strat_Blender.pdf ..and this is where I got my volume kit: http://www.acmeguitarworks.com/Volume_Kit_P87C13.cfm (you don't have to buy theirs, they tell the value of the...

    I need a bit of help.

    Don't import the file. Just drag the extensionless file into Audacity. It works on my PC. That still wont align them, but you can hear the tracks.
