I just ran across this on youtube and really enjoyed it. No reverb on either instrument, wonder what year it was recorded?

Does anyone out there have a good chord chart for Mr Paganini (If You Can Sing It)by Ella Fitzgerald? I bought the sheet music from musicnotes.com but some of the chords just don't sound right to me. ...

That problem of having to whack the amp on top to get it to work is almost always an effects loop jack/switch giving problems. Ken's emergency fix is probably more reliable than even changing out the ...

Clyde is right about printed circuit board mount jacks. I have fixed a lot of them over the years on various brands and models, sometimes replacing the jack, but most times just re-soldering them to t ...

The TW is a great sounding pickup. I put one in my friend's Mullen a while back and we were pleased with the tone. Keith I would think that since your fine pedal has a buffer circuit in it you could g ...

I got an email for Hakko showing this soldering station. Anyone here had any experience with this brand or model? http://www.tequipment.net/HakkoFX888.html

The difference is because the ohm meter measures DC resistance but the speaker is rated in ohms of impedance (AC). Audio is AC so speakers must be rated in impedance instead of resistance, but the com ...

I put a 12" Black Widow in a Special 130 a few years ago and it sounded great, but it made the amp very heavy.

Don't worry fellows, musical instruments will never become obsolete. According to the bible there will even be stringed instruments played in heaven. Try this test: Listen to some computer generated m ...

Beautiful guitar Danny, Are those 10-1 pickups in there?

You gotta put Rainy Day Woman in there somewhere!

I have sure enjoyed all the replies to this post, but Ron gluing his shoes to his feet is the funniest thing I've heard. The stuff does have some expansion but that's what makes it work so good. And D ...

Shoot! I gave one away just like it, oh well.

The threaded steel plug kept coming out of one of my steel guitar legs and I had tried hammering it back in and I thought I would try Gorilla Glue on it, so I coated the plug and knocked it in with a ...

If you put a GeorgeL in there it will be very quiet and will not be microphonic at all. The 10-1 may be wound a little heavy for you at 19.5K if you like a brighter sound,so maybe a TW wound at 18.6 o ...

The "Same Train Different Time" album is saturated with some of the best Dobro picking you ever heard. It is now available on Rhapsody.

It is quite common to have a little more ohms on the C6 neck than the E9. My original single coil Sho-Bud pickups on my Pro II Custom are 23.3K C6 and 20.7K E9. On my BMI I have a GeorgeL E66 17.5K on ...

Generally the more ohms the stronger the output, the less ohms the more treble. Your 19.9 will be stronger output and your 18.8 will have a little less output but more treble in comparison if they are ...

Thanks all you fellows for your advice. Basil I am sure enjoying listening to your steel playing! I've been listening to your songs on the HSGA website. You are amazing on that Fender 1000. What tunin ...

Welcome to the forum,Richard! Where are you at in Arkansas?

2 C-----------B-----------C#

4 G-----------E-----------E
5 E-------- ...

I like to play in some all acoustic jam sessions sometimes but straight G dobro tuning has never been my favorite. I am thinking of putting a set of strings on my dobro with gauges for C6 that I can a ...
