Riff Master Pro The best product I've used for this purpose is Riff Master Pro, no question. I use it every day and it has helped me transcribe some pretty difficult songs. However, I believe it will run you $40 - $50; nonetheless it's worth every penny. Not sure if this is kosher, but if...

I couldn't agree more. Glad you enjoyed it.

Hey Fellas, A good friend of mine showed this to me and I thought it would be a shame not to pass it along to the good people on "The Fret". Its a movement called "Playing for Change" where several amateur filmmakers travel around the globe to record a whole bunch of different musicians...

So recently money has been a bit tight and I've been trying to brain storm how to make some kind of supplemental income without having to resort to getting a serving job on top of my current bookkeeping job. I've been playing guitar for around 5 years now and over the past 7 months I've really...

Thanks for everything fellas. I messed with it a bit over the weekend being really careful. I haven't touched the truss rod yet but it may not be necessary for the buzzing has diminished a great bit already after adjusting the scale length with the saddles. I tested out the innotation and it...

Thanks, yea I'm gonna try messing with it a bit however since I'm not very proficient at guitar maintenance yet I may bring it by the local shop tomorrow if I can't get it figured out. PS. its already starting to sound a little bit better

Recently I inherited a Fender Strat from my fiance's DAD. Its pretty much brand new. He had it for several months and I know it was taken care of very well. However recently I've been noticing some pretty annoying buzzing on the open B, G, and D strings. Its not overwhelming however its def...

Robert, I had a chance to go through that lesson last night and it did help. I still have a long way to go however as you all know and I'm beginning to figure out, is that things like this just take time and practice to be able to use without hesitation. Thanks again man.

You the man, this was exactly what I was looking for. I kinda feel stupid having scoured the internet for these when in fact they were on the VOX site. :thwap: But thank you none the less, I look forward to messing around with these after work.

Sorry I forgot to mention that. I watched it late last night so i didn't actually have time to actually try any of the turnarounds you went over. From what I heard it sounds great and I liked the ones you chose because it seems like a good little variety. Once I get a chance to get through it...

In case any of you were interested. I did end up getting the VOX DA5. It arrived last night and it sounds awesome. You can set it from .5 to 5 watts so the volume is no longer an issue. It has a plethora of cool styles and effects that you can fine tune pretty well. I'm excited to see what...

Thanks guys, any info is helpful. I'll check out some local music stores this weekend for some books.

Anything would be useful...

I don't know what it is with me but I cannot wrap my head around the turnaround. I've read up on it a lot and I know a couple examples however I still have the hardest time actually working them into songs without getting tripped up or forcing it. Are there any really good lessons about...

Thanks for everything guys, this info has really helped a lot. I think I'll end up going with the VOX. From what I've read, it seems to be pretty versatile. Hopefully in the near future I'll be able to pick up a pedal, they seem like a great addition. Thanks again. Cheers, Nate

Yea, it looks like I'll actually have to get married now... worth it haha. I just checked into the V-Amp you suggested, def looks really sweet however at the time funds are limited so I'll have to go with the amp first. Looking further into the suggestions I got earlier I may go with the Vox...

Thanks for the info, I'll def check this one out. Other than the volume issue I have, I just really want something that can take advantage of the Strats' true ability and be able to switch between a couple different sounds.

Hey fellas, I really didn't start playing electric guitar until recently so I honestly don't know anything about amps. I have a Crate 15 W amp right now, it does the job however I have a few issues. The problem is that I live in an apartment so although 15 W may not sound like much, even...

As i continue to explore this forum I am impressed more and more. You video is awesome man. What you played is exactly what I want to be able to do. You never seem like you're moving too fast for yourself and you always maintain control. Throwing in some nice licks and just an awesome song...

Would you mind expounding on that. I've heard that phrase before and I think I know what you mean by it. Essentially that most players believe that they need to fill every second with as many notes as possible. However learning how to make a couple really key notes hit makes all the...
