    My strings sound like crap

    Buzz on every fret is almost ALWAYS going to be too much bow in the neck, and requiring a slight loosening of the truss rod (1/4 turn) and 24 hours to let the wood settle.

    I need to ask something about concerts in future

    That can be a detriment. I avoided Guns and Roses for like two years back in the 80s because of overhype.

    I need to ask something about concerts in future

    Pop music is the bane of my existence, and my wife loves it like breathing. Ugh.

    My strings sound like crap

    Buzz like that is almost ALWAYS a neck adjustment. Did you change gauges and/or tunings? It sounds like you need to loosen your truss rod a 1/4 turn.

    I need to ask something about concerts in future

    A lot of them haven't been live for a long time. With the exception of Celine Dion, every pop artist my wife has made me take her to has spent the majority of the show lip-syncing to a pre-recorded vocal track.

    I need to ask something about concerts in future

    NEVER once thought you were attacking - this is the kind of question where there are no wrong answers and opinions are just that - opinions. I see all your concerns, and I agree with them. Like I said, I think this could have appeal for people who CAN'T go to a live venue, for whatever reason...

    I need to ask something about concerts in future

    I don't think this is a real possibility. There are a lot of things people, millions of people, and artists, love about concerts that don't work in the metaverse. I see a metaverse concert experience as one for one-off shows that are too expensive or otherwise can't be attended in-person, and...

    What I learned in 1 year of making music

    Great post, and so overloaded with truth that most of it will be lost on most people reading it. Thanks for sharing, Andrei!

    Avenged Sevenfold song tier list LIVE

    What a total blast that was! We had joked beforehand that if Syn showed up, we HAD to be honest and stick to our guns, and he was SUCH a great sport about us taking the piss out of (some of) his hard work, and then taking the piss out of his own work over all our protests (if you don’t know what...

    How to change guitar strings on my Washburn Pro.

    That's a Floyd Rose bridge. The brand of guitar is unimportant. Here's a replay of a livestream I did on this a few weeks ago, by popular demand. It's pretty comprehensive and I changed all the strings. Watch the video, and then if you have any questions, I'm here. I've been restringing and...

    Two Students, One Song - Hector Trejo featuring Simon Eichinger

    Two of our more gifted students have dug into the lead single from Hector's debut album. @Hector Trejo has been a student and active member of the site going back to the very beginning. Though he's not here often now, that's partly because he's been working on this debut album, and partly...

    Sorry to do this here - but how can I cancel?

    Almost every single time-based purchase on the internet is a subscription, and when you sign up, you agree to auto-renewal. That is how 99% of service-based commerce on the internet works. And only SOME countries require you to be notified that your renewal date is approaching. Just last week I...

    Sorry to do this here - but how can I cancel?

    It is either, depending on what you signed up for, but I don’t believe it auto-charges. I know it doesn’t for the annual. I don’t get involved in the money changing hands part, though.
