Guitar Talk


Recommended Posts

I just bought a Squier Affinity Series pack with amp since that is the cheapest beginner guitar I could find. Well, I don't care about the quality of the guitar since I'm still in a "Soul Searching" state really. So, I treat this as a mere hobby just grab the guitar for an hour or more of nonsensical playing everyday. I'm still practicing chords stuff and doing finger exercises. Just tonight, my B string snapped. Oh, well. Must be a sign. Hahaha. I will buy a string online and I'm thinking of buying a usb interface just for fun. I happen to find a guitar rig somewhere in the internet might as well try it. =)

 

But sometimes, I feel frustrated when I watch guitar videos on youtube. Especially those shredding toddlers. Cuts my manly ego in quarters. But who cares, we can't afford a guitar when I was their age so I've got one reason. Hahaha! Anyways, is it not too late for me? I'm considering on enrolling on a guitar course at The Guitar Institute of London, but yeah. Maybe I'll just probably end up working my ass until I die. >.<

thanks 16tracks! and oh...do you know a place where i can get patch cables? i've been to a couple of music stores, wala silang stock. i'm into analog fx at the moment hehehe grabe ang dami nanaman bagong multi fx sa market. maybe i should invest in stomp boxes instead :D

 

Patch cables...Assemble ka na lang. A few feet of RG wire, mono 1/4 inch jack, soldering lead and soldering iron.

I recall that Audiophile yata does patch cables while you wait. I had my XLR cables done by them.

 

A friend I jam with got his patch cables from the In Tune Store ( Behringer retailers ) in Robinson's Galleria. Depends on the length you need ang price. Some players have their patch cables customized to the layout of their boards.

 

Good luck!

I checked tommy emmanuel on youtube...

 

Kinda reminds me of Phil Keaggy and Earl Klugh. I only listened to one song of Tommy Emmanuel, and I'm already impressed by his melodic sensibilty. Ang galing nya sa chord melody! Hindi jazzy yung napakinggan ko, nevertheless he made the guitar sing! Which is what everyone of us should be trying to do instead of just 'wanking' 200 notes a second. But then again doing this once in a while is good for the soul....once in a while.

Very nice videos you got.

Whew! Some serious chops there you got there bro on the King of the Blues track.

Very nice tone too-- Surprising to know that it came out of a 10 speaker Crate.

Testimony to the beautiful touch you have garnered through the years.

Lines6 Podxt sure is a nice thing to have kaso expensive nga lang so I'm stuck with a small digitech. hehehe)

 

I have a few videos of me (in DVD format ) jamming with Johnny B and Miguel O on Heartbreaker, Livin Lovin and Rock and Roll with Charlie Y on vocals a coupe of years back at Pipeline but I can't post it here since I haven't got their permission. I'll try to get the audio na lang...

 

What the Strat you have there? As for me, I'm still loving my Gretsch Electromatic with Bigsby

 

Cheers bro! May you have more gigs there! :cool:
