May 24th
On May 24th I have my guitar recital that my instructor has every year and this year I'm playing Yellow Ledbetter. I have worked really hard on this song so hopefully I do well. I love this song and Mike plays with so much emotion, I hope to do the same. Do you guys think I should play this song exactly the same as on Lost…

Listen To This . . .
Jam10 and everyone else that has asked me about loop stations, yes I'm using a BOSS RC-20 loop station during the solo. I do a fill with it at 1:56, but my pitiful minute and a half solo actually begins around 4:06 (I don't like my playing much, but I can't go back and change it now). Yes, everyone has a bad day playing .…

Please help identify Eddie's recent pedals/effects
I'm somewhat familiar with the guitars and amp(s) that Eddie is known to use. However, I'm not sure about the pedal(s). I read once that all he uses is a boss digital delay. However, watching Immagine in Cornice, he clearly has an ABC box (does anyone know the particulars about what box this is?) with the A labeled "DIRT",…

Anyone know what Eddie used to create the vocal loop on "Arc" during the solo tour?
Was it Liam's Boss RC-20? (at least I think this is what Liam uses) Was it a tape loop? (I know there was a reel-to-reel tape player on stage, but I don't think it was used to create Ed's vocal loops) I've always had an aversion to Boss gear for some unfair reason, but if Ed is using it, then that might be enough for me to…

Ukulele
I was thinking about buying a ukulele to play around with and was wondering if anyone had any recommendations? I am looking to pay somewhere around $200. I don't want to break the bank, but I'd like to get something descent. I've played guitar long enough to know that it's better to pay a little more for quality. I was…

re-set up for .10 gauge strings?
I want to switch my string gauge on my strat from 9's to 10's, does this require a new setup for my guitar? And, is it a big adjustment from 9's to 10's as far as finger strength? will bends be much harder? Thanks

Ibanez Guitars
What are your thoughts on Ibanez guitars? They have the thinest necks I have ever played and that's what I like about them. I have small hands so it's good for fast playing and for wrapping my thumb around the low E string. Other wise I don't know too much about these guitars and their are a lot of knowledagble people on…

Can i turn my 12 string into a 6 string without warping the neck?
i got a 12 string acoustic/electric, thinking of selling it cuz i will probably never use it with my band and i don't play it often enough to justify owning it (in my mind) what i do need for the band is a 6 string acoustic/electric - so i was wondering, can i just take of the extra strings and leave on the main 6, or will…

Vox Amps
I'm getting rid of one of my amps (it's a Line 6) and am thinking about getting a Vox Amp. I was wondering if any of you have used them before, and if they are a good brand. I know I've seen U2 and Arcade Fire (two bands I highly respect) use them in live shows. I looked around on Musician's Friend, I don't want those…

Pearl Jam's main guitars
I know Mike and Stone play both Gibson's and Fenders but what would you say is their main brand? Fender or Gibson? I know Mike uses his 59 Strat a lot and is one of his favourite guitars and Stone seems to use Fenders more these days.

Pearl Jam Studio Sound Effects
We break down the live sound all the time. What do you know about studio effects used etc. Obviously binaural recording was used for a specific sound... we know they use Blue Mic's sometime, I wonder what cabinet techniques they use, whether they might use ribbons at all etc. Earlier on there was a lot more compression in…

Has Gibson ever tried a block tremolo unit?
I was wondering this this morning. I know obviously Bigsby's have been used and Lyres. I wonder if they've ever used a block with springs on any guitars. Les Pauls or the like. I can't recall any at all, though I do wonder what it would be like having say an SG with a tremolo unit.
