Do a search on this, the songwriters forum as this has been covered many times.

You could most likely sell your lyrics online for a pittance or run the risk of copyright problems if posted unprotected. If you are a credable songwriter and would like to pursue that route then go to a publisher (or create the interest) and do it properly. If just for fun and to see what...

Amen.

Don't buy any. Use the money instead to buy a pen, pencil, dictaphone, notebook. I am serious about the above. I wouldn't waste the money. If you want to know more about song sructure for instance, there is loads of info on the web. The rest should come from you. Looking to follow someone...

Depends very much on the singer. Some even use monitors instead of heaphones. Generally speaking you want to take out the bleaps and extemes (like guitar solo's (not that the guitarist weould be happy for you to sing over them anyway)). I try and have some sustain (say an organ, something...

I know what you mean about sad songs. It took me ages before I actually wrote a 'positive' song. I can't offer any advice though. I didn't particularly want to write songs, it just happened. The same thing applies to happy -v- sad songs. I don't think it's down to a particular day, feeling...

I brag about it often. My Martin D1 is the best sounding acoustic I have ever played. It doesn't sound like other D1's and blew away all the other Martins and Taylor's I've played. If you want to hear what it sounds like, buy my CD. Send payment to.................LOL.

Incidentally. I've just been working on my sweep picking over thge past week. I had always sort of ignored it as it's not essential to my style but I wanted the technique down and this hour lesson is better than anything I've ever seen covering the art of sweep picking. I would also advise...

If you want to learn sweep picking, go via the link below. Take an hour out to watch a pro do it (and it's free). http://www.digevent.com/events/consumer/music/guitar_mania/archives.asp Then scroll down to the archive entitled 'Sweep Picking & Raking digevent'. There are others as well but...

Have you checked http://www.harmony-central.com/Guitar/Data/00all.html out yet? Simply scroll down to the amp you want to read reviews on.

Hmmmmm. How much is it (is it for sale)? I wonder what the guage strings are on it. If it had 10 strings it'd be like a bass guitar on top of an electric (that'd be novel). If you could play that the guitarist would look the fool and incapable one of the stage for a change, LOL.

What pick-ups come as standard on the jazzmaster, p90's?

Yeah; it's nice to play a guitar without knowing anything about it-How old it is, what pick-ups are in it, the price!!!! etc. I don't really agree in ordering a guitar as all guitars are different in some shape or form (even like the above have mentioned, being the same model). You've got to...

I heard him say that his dad helped him make it and the body is from an old toilet seat; hmmm.

In time (after about 5 minutes) you would regret it if you sold it. Unless you absolutley need the money , keep it.

Toyl: well I listen more to Radiohead and U2 that use it more moderatley so can't really help on particular uses. What you may want to take a look at are the links below. These are harmony central reviews but you might be able to get some info (I haven't time to search through myself) or you...

If you want something doing, and properly at that-do it yourself. If you have the time, cash, contacts (for parts) and inclination by all means make your own guitar to stand by.

Keep it up Gidge; your nearing 3,000 posts; well by next week anyway. That'll makes 3,000 lines right?

Hey Gidge; shameless plug on the end of guitar mania don't you think? BTW, I'm uncer a different name over there.

I've got a jazz bass (usa). Basically the Jazz bass is more diverse and the precision is like you've said 'the one you copare all others to'. I'm not a bassplayer so aren't going to get into it, but put it this way the precison is a little hotter and heavy.
