Electric Guitar / Truss Rod Adjustment
September 15, 2013, 05:28:52 PM
Any tips on checking and adjusting the truss rod in your guitar, what's the secret.

How do you know if it's out?  How do check it?  How do you adjust it properly?

Guitar Accessories / Cleaning your Guitar
September 15, 2013, 05:18:57 PM
What do you use to clean your guitar.  Just give it a buff with a microfibre cloth, give it a spray with Mr sheen ???  How do you look after your pride and joy?

Not forgetting the amp, other bits and bobs, do people actually clean those.  What with?

General Discussion / Your Dream Rig
September 15, 2013, 05:11:57 PM
So if you had endless amounts of cash to play with, what would be your dream rig, including your dream guitar of course? 

Having not thought about this before posting the question, I'll have to come back and answer this later.  :-[

Guitar Accessories / Guitar Strings ?

So what makes a good guitar string, is there really that much difference between all the different makes.  If so, what makes them so different?

Guitar Accessories / Guitar Pickups?
September 15, 2013, 12:08:33 PM
If you by a new or used guitar, do you always make sure it has specific pickups for your needs, or do you always change them for a different make and model?  What do you prefer, and why??

September 15, 2013, 12:05:26 PM
Do you have a favourite brand of guitar pick? Do you always stick to one make and type?

How many of you play guitar through a bass amp, instead of a guitar amp? Anyone.

Well any value I can add by way of articles or 'how to's ... provided I have the time ... I'm always willing to lend a hand :)

Ash, that would be fantastic if you could do any of those. Either articles or how to's would be extremely welcome.  The site does have an article system, which you should find a submit article link down the left hand side of the front page.  Or if you prefer you can just add them as regular posts in the forums.  It's entirely up to you.  ;)

Thanks.  :tup:

A hypothetical question for you.

You have a grand to spend, you need to buy a guitar, a amp, and two pedals, (including leads etc)

What would you buy?  This can be new, or second hand, or a mix of both.  :)

Amplifiers / Re: Fender Fuse

Seek and ye shall find - got a patch for my Mustang 3 called 'empty' so it can be used with effects processors with no amplifier modeling, and as a clean USB recording interface. Result!

Fender Fuse is bl**dy marvellous  ;D 8)

Does anyone else on here use Fender amps that are Fuse compatible? My delight with my Mustang 3 continues to grow, not least because of the Fuse software.

So you're still liking the Fender Mustang lllâ,,¢ then H. Glad to hear it the software is good too.  It's still on my wishlist.  So is a lot of other stuff.  lol..  About time you recorded something, and stuck it up for us to listen mate..  ;)

The Prophecy is on my wish list though.  ;)

And so it should be. Said lead guitarist's ex came to stay last week and when she saw it she said 'that's just beautiful'. And it is.  :)

Did you get the Black Cherry, or the Heritage Cherry Sunburst ?  And fancy doing another review?  :D
