    Went to a Grammy Academy 'songwriters discussion' last night (long)...

    I couldn't bare writing songs as an occupation. The last thing I feel like doing in the morning is picking up the guitar/going over to the piano. You need discipline..........I get up (early afternoon) and head straight for the whiskey, LOL.

    Generally speaking, you should be fine with grovers, but schallers are better IMO.

    So, youve written a song...now what?

    Depends on your prioritiies. many songwriters write songs and sell them, they don't want fame and do not neccesarily preform the songs. The key to this is a publisher. If they take an interest, they will pay you for your songs and if your good enough they'll make sure you earn enough so you...

    POD PRO or Mesa Boogie TRI-AXIS

    The changes in volume. Charger is right, you can store the volumes. If you do get the pod pro make sure you hook it up to your pc so you can alter the patches in far greater detail than from the front panel. I also have the big floorboard which has a volume pedal on it to alter volume when I...

    Best humidifier for acoustic guitar?

    I have a planet waves by d'addario. I saw it, thought I needed a humidifier for my Martin and subsequently bought it. I don't know much at all about hunidifiers. This one gets refilled once a month (distilled water), it hooks onto the D and G strings (so can work in case or on wall) and...

    Best wood for solid body?

    I'm partial to a bit of ash, mmmmmmmmm. The amount of sustain is more to do with the volume/weight of the wood. I believe Mahogony is great for this (face it les paul's have the sustain and are made of a Carved maple top, Mahogany back); maybe it's the maple-I don't know.

    You could try some slightly longer or wider screws that will hold it better (take a firmer grip to the wood).

    Batteries versus power supplies

    Apart from the couple of pedals that require a battery I use a power supply unit which powers multiple pedals (like the voodo but simpler I think). It works fine for me. I got so frustrated with batteries (leaving pedals on, remembering to check them, replacing/re-charging them). There is no...

    Monster Studio Pro 1000 Instrument Cable

    I've started making my own now. I buy a reel of quality instrument/microphone cable and seperate jacks (usually gold plated). It works out a lot cheaper and isn't that much work; just a little soldering.
