Thanks man. I have fixed the outtro, but haven't recorded it yet. Next recording should be a bit smoother. That is actually my Les Paul through my ME-70, into my cheapest amp, Peavy Vyprr 15 using a very cheap logitech mic. Sounds way better at apartment volumes for recording than my big...

I think I figured out what was going on. The tab book I bought shows it totally different than a few videos I saw of him playing. I also forgot he's got a type of chorus effect going on with the outtro, so this weekend I will try to rerecord.

Thanks dude. Yeah everyone is mentioning that the end sounds weird. I will have to investigate that I'm doing that correctly. I'm intentionally letting open strings sing out, but honestly, I focused a lot less on the outro than I did the intro and the verse. I am playing what I intended to...

I am a bit more comfortable with my recording setup, but I will be an amateur for a while. This is my newest recording, just the guitar for Under the Bridge. Let me have it: https://soundcloud.com/stiff-parrot/under-the-bridge-rev I obviously screw up twice here, but I want to hear what you...

Guitar bids went crazy last night. I knew it was unrealistic but I think I'm going to keep watch for this type of thing. Thanks for link.

I have 6 buys off of ebay in the last 8 years, so I have no idea how a lot of it works. edit to add, realistically, unless it's a ripoff, I could buy it for $500 and sell it on craigslist for more than that. So there has to be people camped on this thing waiting to do at least just that.

I'm going to wait until there's a day left and then bid $100 max. The one I have my eye on is a $800 guitar brand new being sold by a pawn shop with 100% positive feedback across a lot of sales. I don't think there's any way this thing goes for that price but I figure it wouldn't hurt to bid...

I see 3 guitars that I'd love to have, with bidding under $5 total ($50 shipping) on highly reputable sellers with listings with under 5 days left. Gotta be too good to be true, right?

Really loving it. Jazzy, funky, good music.

with the X2u USB converter to help me with some of the tracks I've been recording lately. Never had a pro-grade mic, if you can call it that. I'm told it will be the only thing that survives after a nuclear detonation. So far I'm impressed with my vocal tracks in comparison to what I was using...

I was born and raised in Bronx, New York. It's not a small town, but the culture there makes it a small town. Yankee hats, before they became popular, was what everyone wore, from old men to little kids. We were a baseball town and it was in our blood. I'm 30 years old, so Mariano Rivera, Jeter...

Thanks for the support man. Lately I'm feeling like I don't even know what I'm doing so it means a lot. That chorus on Santeria is arpeggiated in the recording. I couldn't hit the arpeggio cleanly at that speed so I hit the whole chord. I knew as soon as I heard it that it didn't work.

I'm not sure if the Giants understand they need to win a game. 0-3 right now. 38-zip to the Panthers. I love Cam Newton, but c'mon!

Kind of frustrated, the tone coming out of my amp is not what I record and I just couldn't get my act together with music today. Santeria I didn't even try to sing, so I used the backing track from that site you showed me. That song is faster than I usually play it so I struggled a bit, but I'm...

I'm the bald guy:

Being relatively new to music, I never knew how important bass was until I didn't have it.

Loved it! I couldn't hear the bass with my work headphones, so I'll listen again when I get home, but especially loved Man's World. Singer was great.

Thanks for the compliment. It's such a silly song, so like I said, I was a bit embarrassed to post. It was an off the cuff comment a friend of mine made a while ago about a pirate and it just turned into a bunch of us very maturely making that metaphor. The song just happened a few days later...

I did not remaster that one. I tried recording an original song called "Stiff Parrot". It took me like 4 hours to do Kryptonite so I was sick of it by the end. Stiff Parrot took me about an hour. My wife, who loves the song, tried to record a bass track on it but struggled with the speed as she...

Giants got trounced. Eli looked lost. Broncos are the real deal.
