  1. Hey! That sounds pretty good. Harmonies are pretty tight .
  2. Heh, it's good to see such a lively debate now I didn't even get one reply when I posted it about a month ago: http://projectguitar.ibforums.com/index.php?showtopic=6383

    Must... resist... "dermal recorder" comment! ...and by that I mean a biometric instrument that records fingerprints .
  7. Speaking of fingerpicks, anyone try the AlaskaPik? http://www.alaskapik.com/ I'd like to keep long nails for playing but it's not practical (I break them all the time.) I like how the AlaskaPik goes under the nail tips. I dislike how traditional fingerpicks feel.
  8. What movie was that that had the pianist with extra fingers? Was it "Gattaca"?
  9. The sound clips of the tech 21 that krazyderek mentions do sound pretty good... and ewww, the sound clips of the line 6 on that website sound terrible! I know they're capable of sounding better. I wonder why they put such horrid sounding ones up.
  10. I was under the impression that to get full humbucking both coils would have to have the same number of windings. I've seen half-humbuckers (one coil has less windings) on some website. I'll look for it. Edit: Ugh, I didn't find the website and I don't feeling like searching for it
  11. Let google be your guide! http://www.davapick.com/
  12. Of those listed, I'd probaly go for the "Line 6 Flextone III" because of all the effects, etc. built-in but you'd need to tack on a few hundred dollars for a FBV series foot controller... or you can research if the Behringer FCB1010 would work with it. Edit: Oops, nevermind... it looks like the FBV uses RJ-45 connectors, not the midi DIN.
  13. You need to put a hard newline (the enter key) for each entry, not the word wrap. Either that or your web browser is not doing that.
  14. Record yourself playing either with a click-track/metronome or playing along with a cd and hear for yourself .
  15. Is it open back or closed? I made a closed 2x12 cabinet with speakers from a fender combo (open back) and it too sounded not so good. See how it sounds without the back cover if it has one. I don't know but would padding make it even more muddy?

  17. StreamLine lives in the UK. You can see his veneer here: http://projectguitar.ibforums.com/index.php?showtopic=5429 Perhaps you can PM him to find out where he got his.
  18. Are you talking about the veneer? It sounds like you're talking about body blanks .
  19. Yeah, it's a laff-riot! I don't like how his (acrylic?) nails sound on the steel strings.
  20. Heh, it took all of 4 seconds to download it . Still need to work on that right hand (picking hand) technique, muting and such. It almost has a wide open strumming feel like you'd do for folk acoustic guitar, if ya know what I mean .
  21. Cool! Now, get to playing that thing!
  22. Heh, I guess I understand theory because it's so much like math... but I still suck on guitar . My mom tells me I'm good looking and smart .
  23. If you feel comfortable with JavaScript, just save that online version and edit it to get rid of that 24 fret limitation. If you're comfortable with perl, I have this script that I use: #!/usr/bin/perl # converted to perl from the # C-program for calculating fret distances for any scale length # Written by Chris St. Pierre # http://www.buildyourguitar.com/resources/tips/fretdist.htm use strict; my ($distance, $scale, $location, $scaling_factor, $num_frets); $scaling_factor = 0; $distance = 0; if ($#ARGV > -1) { $scale = $ARGV[0]; $num_frets = $ARGV[1] ? $ARGV[1] : 24; } else { printf ("Enter the scale desired: "); $scale = <STDIN>; printf ("\nEnter the number of frets: "); $num_frets = <STDIN>; } printf("\nFret | Dist bet. frets | Dist to Nut\n"); printf("------------------------------------\n"); my $magic = 2**(1/12); $magic /= ($magic - 1); foreach my $current_fret (1 .. $num_frets) { $location = $scale - $distance; $scaling_factor = $location / $magic; $distance += $scaling_factor; printf("%4d: %10.3f %15.3f\n", $current_fret, $scaling_factor, $distance); } printf("=================================\n"); I hope I copy-n-pasted that correctly . There's also an excel spreadsheet around on that page where I got that C-program: http://www.buildyourguitar.com/resources/tips/fretdist.htm
  24. I haven't been in ten years . We used to be called TeraHertz (THz)... I absolutely HATED that name . Nope, no band homepage... but I have some videos. My old singer worshipped Lane Staley (RIP) and we had two guitarists... so I described the style of our music as "Alice in Queensryche" .
