  1. yes.

    i reccomend that you buy a bunch of blues CDs,
    is like 10 good enough? Plus like 6 vinyl records? I have plenty. I play along, and i have gotten most of my licks from there. When i say "improv" i don't mean "random" there IS a BIG difference. Thanks for the opinions so far!

  2. I love to play the blues, but i hate scales and theory and all that bull crap. So my question is when you're playing the blues do (or should) you use scales and theory?

    I believe in my opinion that the blues should be played improv. think of it this way; The first bluesman were poor, uneducated black men who lived in the south, namely the mississippi delta. Do you think they knew anything about scales or theory? NO. They picked up the damn guitar and played it. Alot of them didn't even bother to tune perfectly. Sometimes they would pick up an old medicine bottle and play a little slide.

    ALL IN FAVOR?!?!

    sorry, it's a personal demon...

  3. I think he means a small affordable one that attatches to a dremel. Yes, people have been using CNCs for inlay for a long time, but it'd be nice to have an inexpensive way to speed up inlay work.

    try it sometime. its use for some dashboard songs.

    oh yeah, and make sure you tune the g string*giggle* down, not up. i learned that the hard way...

    tell me how to do this. I can't tune by ear too well, so tell me in half steps...

    I use standard and drop d. I can tune to drop D by ear, and without even using the 7th fret harmonic! WOOT!

    I love guitar...

  5. That is a great idea. It might take up a lot of space on the server, though. it might cost brian a few bucks...

    And it would be excelent if it ran on a cache system, too. I mean all the pictures on the main page take FOREVER for us dial up people to load. So something, anything to get them to load a bit faster...

  6. www.stewmac.com is a great place to buy stuff. They have jeweler's saws for like 13 bucks, and for a pack of dozen blades it costs like 3 bucks. Medium is good for roughing out the shape, and fine for the detail work of cutting the pearl... (blades)

  7. I couldn't find any wood on their site. So is it constantly at that price, 29 bucks for whatever size piece of quilted maple you used? Or was that a special deal? Because in a couple of months i'd be willing to send you money to buy me some of that if it's constantly that cheap, plus shipping, and a little extra "handling" if you know what i mean. B)
