You wouldn't want to give your standard 6 string up for one - it's really a specialty instrument. I have a James Hetfield Signature "Grynch" Baritone, made by ESP. 1 of only 240 in the world. It's really cool - but I don't use it for everything, obviously. A good addition to your 6 string...

I have a MusicMan Hd 210 combo. It's old but I've never replaced the speakers. How useless am I?

Doesn't it though? We are going to look at it this weekend. Would the diffusors and absorbers cut down on the sound throughout the house? I am mostly concerned about soundproofing the iso room, but if I can cut down on the sound coming from the open area (faux control room) that would rock...

Shit man - that about covers everything! Thank you!

So I should look into finding someone who has done it before and have them do it...maybe I should ask around at the local music stores.

Thanks fellas - some good info here. It sounds complicated though.

I would like to be able to crank my Mesa and not disturb the wife and baby upstairs. A little bleed is OK. Is this stuff difficult to do? Should I hire a pro? I'm not a handy guy but I have relatives who are.

So I am planning on doing it right with our next house, which we are looking to buy pretty soon. I want to build an iso room big enough to fit a drum kit and sound proof it. Is the room within a room the way to go? I take it I'd want the iso room to have it's own ceiling. Any estimates on what...

That's one crusty guitar player. That dude will NOT age well.

Perty!!! --------

It's a big problem for me. I love and am influenced by such vast genres that I find it hard to buckle down and focus on any 1 genre. Right now I have a country tune, metal tune, blues tune and AAA type tune in the works. It can be hard being eclectic.

I'm excited to hear what Rubin does with the new Metallica record. They start recording in July.

No way. That's not to say I don't get frustrated or discouraged - but I've never wanted to quit. I just want to get better!

Thanks guys. I did it last night - easy breezy. Looks great! Pics to come. Cheers

I get hung up on finished maple necks. Rosewood or ebony for me.

Thanks fellas. I think I'll give it a try. I'm getting these: http://www.instrumentalley.com/Grover_Rotomatic_102C_Tuning_Machines_p/102c.htm Now is there anything else I should know? How tight do I tighten those screws? Are certain heads meant for certain strings? I'm going to grab them...

I haven't bought them yet. I don't want any re-drilling done. I'll ask what type of Grovers they have. I definitely want chrome.

Take off the nut? Are we talking about the actual nut or something else?

I am going to replace the cheesy green plastic machine heads on my Les Paul Studio with some chrome Grovers. Is this a job for a tech or is it simple enough for me to do it? Any special trick or certain technique that must be employed? If it's a job for a tech I'd rather not take the chance...
