mike's 2008 distortion tone
listening to the bootlegs, he's got something in there that is really nasty and fuzzy, almost like a big muff or a fender blender. i searched the board, here, and someone said that it was a fulltone distortion pro. as far as i know, though, this pedal isn't capable of the tones mike's getting on songs like "all night" and…

Very basic beginner guitar stupid question about Release
About a month ago my son wanted to learn guitar, so I got a nice beginner electric set, and the more he messed around with it, the more interested I became, and now I play it probably 3 times as much as he does. I have never played up until this point in my life. I know basic music from when I was in high school, and I can…

Need Expert Advice: Home Recording for Dummy
Hi, I'm hoping to figure out a way to record myself (guitar/vocals ect) on my computer. I use to have a Tascam recorder (8 tracks). It was great but it worked on cassets, which is ridiculously outdated. I'd prefer to record on my computer. I have XP. What's the best recording hardware/software? (I have about $250-200 to…

Society
Such a great song. Eddie did a great job on covering this song. He did a great job on the whole sound track. He is simply a musical genius! I'm learning society and was wondering if anybody plays it without a capo. I play it without a capo in the key of B minor and it sounds good. How does everyone else play it?

problem with G-string (guitar string not the other one)
Hello, I've been playing guitar for one year and I bought an electric guitar just one month ago (a cheap Squier Fat Strat). I've noticed a problem with the G string. It's perfectly tuned when I pluck the string open but when I play it on frette 1 or 2 and check with my tuner the note is not what it should be . Also, basic…

Bridges on a Tele Bigsby
Has anyone put a B5 Bigsby on their tele? I did recently and the bridge that came with it seems like it sits way too high. Right now I have the poles for the saddle-rollers taken out completely. When they are in, it seems unless the strings sit exactly in the middle one of the poles will unscrew on it's own while I'm…

Tuner Freq.
I have a krog CA-30 tuner, and the directions don't really give you a good idea as to what Hz to set my tuner to. It goes from 410 Hz to 480 Hz, but so far I haven't found a setting I like. Is there any set freq. for different styles of playing?
