Snork

something is royally screwed with my roland jazz. its a 76 model. all of a sudden after about 2 minutes after turning it on, especially when comping you hear this distortion/hiss thing in the low end especially. I think it could be condensed water. However I have NO idea whats wrong with it. I have 3 gigs in the next 2 months. I need help fast.

thats amazing. props to you sir. thats positively beautiful!

sit with a metronome and slowly work up speed. take it really slow. its better to play it really clean than really sloppy and fast.

you should feel your fingers "lock up" between fretting hand and picking hand.

i decided on my guitar finally. its going to be a parker deluxe. after playing 3 of them. the mojo/deluxe/mahogany fly. there really wasn't a difference between the 3 of them besidfes in featurs.i liked the finish on the mojo fly. its got a cool transparent stain sunburst thing going on. and the hype about the dimarzios is just hype. they're not that bad. but they were a little thin so i did some research and i found that ed roman does replace the parkers pickups with dimarzios custom black back pickups. now i did some research on these enigmatic 279 dollar pickups. and i found this disturbing inquiry at harmony central. http://www.harmony-central.com/Guitar/Data...ck-Back-01.html

to be honest, i like the jb. it is a fairly dynamic pickup.

check out whole tone . thats some weird stuff. it works over a common dom7 chord.

the blues scale just has one passing tone from the major scale. it's not areally a note to be vamped on. however it is good to use in passing.;

oh i understand them. and i understand tensions and how they "code" for scales...etc. i.e sharp 11 coding for lydian because of lydians sharp 4

but i just suck at playing intervallically.

i look at allen holdsworth and metheny and teh way they just basically tell the listener, screw this i'm doing it my way. and go on to a whole tone solo over some dominant 7 chord. its just too deep. sometimes when i listen to those wide fu**** intervals in holdsworths solos i just fall in and just keep going. no matter HOW much theory i study its just hard to fathom whats next. allan holdsworth thinks he sucks. and he hates music. it drives me mad. it also depemds on what genre of music you play.

i.e punk rock its all about the lyrics. it all sounds the same.

fusion... there are no limits. you can't reach the end of the pit. you just have to keep going

thats amazing. who makes that?

this is actually very helpful. i SUCK at intervals. however i did just get back from terry syrek and toshi isedas shred class! and i do have some new ideas and know how to improvise through the modes including harm minor. but and one or two of melodic minor

i saw oscare peterson. MY GOD It was aMAZING. 30 min standing ovation.

if you want an even finish i'd recommend looking harder.

pw-10. i have it. its amazing. it models crybaby bad horsie vox plus 2 other wah models. all with a q on it. o/.d is ok but it has 10 different types. plus you can model your own wah. screw a crybaby square in the @ss. believe me i've had a baby, vox, morley, and the boss was by FAR the best. no question.

nice guitar south!

oh my god thats right.

ok i dont know what the issue is but on my strat i just installed 2 new texas specials and a hot rails. the neck/mid come on on neck position. and NO OTHER POSITIONS WORK!!!!!! HELP!!!!

you're sick... you're just sick.

personally i feel that the lace holy grails are the BEST sounding pickups out there. this one guy on ebay sells cool GFS pickups.

i have extra money.

i think indian rosewood are just about the same. i've seen both at the hardwood store. if you can find some great looking indian rosewood i think it will look and sound about the same as brazilian. for a cheaper alternative try bubinga or ovangkol.
