very sad news
http://www.myspace.com/seancostello maybe this belongs in Other Music, but it's really kind of tragic to lose another really talented Guitarist so soon in life at only a day before he would have been 29. He played a lot and grew up in Atlanta. I'll definately miss seeing him play his 56 Gold top through that little…

PA/Mic set up
All right, I've ALWAYS had a problem with this. For shows, I sing into the PA and I don't have my amp in the PA. So, to get a good sound from my amp, I'll have it around 2. Problem is, the amp is too loud for the PA, mainly because the mic picks up the amps sound. It's too loud. Well now that I have a band, you get a ton…

Surf Guitar
Hey guys. I've been playing guitar for a while now, and I feel like changing my style up a bit. I think trying out the surf rock style would be a great time. However, I'm noticing that the selection of instructional books on surf guitar are slim pickings. Just wondering if any of you guys have some recommendations. Thanks.

So I'm taking Music Theory I next semester.
I go to a community college (MCC for whoever has heard of it) and I am now taking Guitar I which deals with basic EASY chords (which I have known forever, but the class is more for beginners who have never picked up a g-tar) and classical finger picking and note reading (why I'm taking the class). Anyways next semester I…

Many DADGAD players here?
This isn't a thread about different tunings in general, because there have been many of those. This is strictly a thread about DADGAD chords, sequences, scales, ideas, and other tips. Okay, let's start: who uses DADGAD tuning as part of a live setlist? Would we be talking covers, originals, or both?

Volume Pedal
I was just wondering how a volume pedal works. Obviously it controls your over all volume but what's the difference between a volume pedal and using the volume knob on your guitar? Is a volume pedal a must for a good pedal board? What are some good volume pedals out there? Another question...would you put your volume pedal…

Please identify guitar in Burn To Shine
Eddie plays "Can't Keep" on what looks like a kid's size guitar in the the Burn to Shine DVD. What is it? When I heard him play a version like this on the Live at Benaroya Hall CD, I thought it was a mandolin. Has he played this guitar on anything else? Thanks for your patience!

Compression Sustainer...Any Good?
I was reviewing my Guitar Legends Pearl Jam magazine today and noticed, in a picture of Stone's peddleboard, that he had a CS-3 Compression Sustainer (right next to his "Gossard Groove" wah? volume? peddle back in '92). I know he uses a Keeley Compressor nowadays, but I am curious if any of you use the CS-3 and if so would…

Starting to learn guitar... please help a noob.
Ok, I'm one of those people who thought they could never learn an instrument, but I put all that behind me and I'm really going to try.

I didn't know Jimi Hendrix played a Les Paul.....
I was looking through a Hard Rock Cafe book the other day and they had about 5 pages just on Hendrix and obviously we all know he was known for playing a Strat but I didn't know that he played a Les Paul occassionally. Is this common knowledge? Maybe I should have known!

Help with Tubescreamer...

Richie Sambora
I saw a youtube video yesterday on Richie Sambora talking about his different guitars and playing a few licks. That guy can really play. Too bad Bon Jovi is all soft now. They would be a lot better if Richie just did his thing. I never noticed how talented he actually is until I saw that video.
