What do you use to record your music?
I've been trying to make a decent recording of a piano piece I wrote. I've made three with different devices. The first one was a mini-disc recorder which sounds fine but I can't put it INTO the computer because it has no line-out. The second was recorded as a sound-over in iMovie and so all the loud parts are distorted…

Suggested pickups for tele?
So instead of focusing on homework I've been looking around for new pickups to put in my tele. I know a lot of people will probably suggest Duncans and P90s but I was looking at Fender blackguard pickups and twisted tele pickups...only problem is all the demo videos on youtube the people are playing blues. So what…

Audiophile Question/ Advice
Is sound quality of the analog signal lost if using a pre-amp through a record player to a digital input receiver vs. straight RCA input cables to a receiver with phono input? I have an older Pioneer receiver with phono input, but am using a Preamped signal from my record player to a new digital receiver. Would I notice…

*Fender Telecaster/Stratocaster update*
I am a novice guitar player. I have been playing for about a year now and realized that I will be sticking with this for the rest of my life to some degree. Since I surpassed the one year hump I decided to start saving towards a better guitar to serve as motivation to keep playing. I currently have two fender squiers…

Let's liven it up here. What's your favorite clean tone you get?
Let's liven up this place a bit. What's your favorite clean tone you can get? Mine is my Nash strat with lollars, 4th pickup position plugged directly into my Dr Z Maz 18 with volume at 2, treble at 11, middle at 10: 30, bass at 2, master volume at 8 and cut around 11. Brake lite set on 4. The tone just does it for me. All…

Vent/Question
Don't know if this belongs here or somewhere else. It's part vent/part question. Here we go... I've been playing with my praise band for a few years, now. It's been a "love/hate" relationship. I'm the youngest player and I play more rock where the rest of the band are much older and are into jazz/contemporary Christian…

Proposal for drummers and bassists
Just an idea, but has anyone thought of doing an online collaboration? I play in a band with a couple friends, but neither are reaaaally that into pearl jam, and we have a general consensus not to try and cover material. When we jam we just come up with our own stuff, and it works for us. If I try to bring up covering a PJ…

Action on a Bass
I recently bought a beginner bass off Amazon and the G string tuning key stripped. I got a replacement, but this time, the action is so low, the strings are making contact with the 1st fret. This creates much buzzing. Is there an easy fix, or at least one that wont require $?

Rocksmith 2014
Anyone grab this yet? I really liked the concept of Rocksmith, however, it needed a release and real life use by the public to work out some issues. It had many design and application flaws. The second release fixed a great deal of the issues and is very good. They also decided to gear the game more toward being a learning…

Martin D-15M
I'm new to guitar and am looking for a good acoustic at a reasonable price. I saw this one and really like it. And I'm partial to mahogany so that's a plus. Can anyone tell me if its a solid choice or give me some other recommendations. Right now I have an Alvarez acoustic which sounds great but isn't as playable as I'd…

Getting Gigs
Hello, I've been asked by a friend to help them with their band. Nothing to do with my musical ability more to do with my organisational skills (sad I know). I've sorted out their social media side along with other websites. They've now asked me to get some gigs (pubs, clubs and support slots) for them. Now I love watching…

Wah Pedal Help
I have a Dunlop Cry Baby Classic GCB95F that isn't working. It's powered with a power supply (that has worked in the past). When plugged in, I have no sound, at all. Normally I would check the jacks but, with this wah, I have no idea how to get to them since they are enclosed. Any ideas on how to tackle this?

Win-win!

Jazzmaster advice
Have a few guitars on the wishlist and Jazzmaster has moved to the top. What's the best route to go? Go with the Classic Player JM and upgrade, self build, or bite the bullet and look for a MIA AVRI version?

Amp settings for PJ tracks?
Ok, so this may already be covered in another thread, but the search function is not working for me in the forums. I've let my guitar down for a while, and it's time to pick her up again. I used to play a lot of metal, but now want to start getting into PJ playing a bit more. I am not a big "sound" guy, so any help anyone…
