    Axe FX3 or FM3?

    Works the same way as all the Fractal products - USB port on the back becomes your interface when plugged into the computer. It is a FANTASTIC option for people who want the sound quality but don't need ALL the bells and whistles. It is gig-ready and sounds amazing.

    my first concert

    Iron Maiden. March 28, 1987. Second row from the top of a 20,000 seat arena and I loved every minute. There was no hope of ever actually MEETING the bands back then, unless you were a hot girl with lots of... motivation. So I never met them. First big band I met was probably Pantera, right...

    The Major Scale – Lesson 7

    Not being a theory wonk, but having a lot embedded that I may not understand, I wonder if it's kinda like driving - you burnt he mechanics of it into your brain so that when the time comes to actually DRIVE, you don't need to think about "turn the wheel like this, push down this foot on the gas...

    Super saddened

    Being a bit of an Ibanez fanboy (I've got 5 - it's the only brand I have more than one of), I might have had something to do with that...

    Are Rechargeable Batteries for a Guitar OK?

    Nobody does. Eric Johnson is a freak. :cool:

    Are Rechargeable Batteries for a Guitar OK?

    There are cork-sniffers like Eric Johnson who swears he can tell the difference in his tone when he uses a different battery in one of his effects, but really, that's kinda bullshit. If it's not, he's definitely an anomaly. Rechargeable batteries will not damage anything in your guitar, but...

    This dude rules.

    Goddamn.

    What are you currently listening to?

    This album is like a template for how to make commercially viable, hook-laden modern rock. It fuckin rules.

    Guitar positioning

    Learn it standing, and you can play it no matter what. Learn it sitting, and there's a new learning curve when you stand up. There's no right or wrong, and if you're never going to be in a band, it won't matter, but if you ARE....

    One last thing...

    Some wonderful and creative stuff here! I dig it! The first tune has a very Megadeth vibe in some places, but the vocals remind me of a more obscure band called Woods of Ypres. Great stuff, thanks for sharing!

    Tips for nervousness and anxiety?

    It is 100% a self-confidence thing and the only thing that really gets rid of it is repetition. The shitty thing is that if you don't do it regularly, your confidence "resets," too, so even if you played in front of thousands a long time ago, if you haven't in a few years, that stagefright is...

    Top 20 greatest singer songwriters

    You know, being "of a certain age," I think Rick defaults to a lot of stuff from the 70s from a LOT of his lists, and then feels the need to pull some more contemporary stuff into the mix to balance it out (which he did NOT do here - I think the newest song was from 75 or 76). I'm totally okay...

    Comment by 'Ed Seith' in media 'Satch Cover'

    Love it, and always love a good PRS. Of course, ANY PRS is a good PRS. Only feedback I'd give is to pay closer attention to timing. You're coming in a bit early in some places, and that rushes the melody. That can be hard when there's a quick burst of legato - your subconscious wants to start...

    Comment by 'Ed Seith' in media 'Bat country progress ( 2 months update)'

    Wonderful progress, Kat! And what I love more than anything here is that you are SEEING your progress and you are clearly (and rightly) very PROUD of yourself. That, to me, means you're excited to keep going, and that's the greatest feeling in the world. BRAVO!!!

    Song I'm working on, any ideas how I can make it different? like my guitar playing?

    I like it, but you're right - there needs to be a little more variety in there. Maybe an embellishment instrument in some of the sections that makes it "feel" a little different? Something that comes in and out to distinguish the parts a little. It seems like the only thing that changes is the...

    I made a song

    Love it! This sounds like at least a little bit of it belongs in a movie or TV show soundtrack somewhere. the music over some kind of montage, you know? I like it. Great slap-echo on the guitar part, too.
