I haven't tried GuitarPro ( any version ) at all... It doesn't bother me that the sound's naff, just being able to hear the pitch & timing is enough for me.
I was joking about the beard products... :lol: But as I got a serious(ish) response, I tend to just wash my entire head with whatever 2in1 is within reach... after rinsing out the pizza toppings & dried beer. Long beards need a little wax to keep in check. ( I cycle to work every day, &...
What's a good volumizing conditioner for beards? I've tried Laboratoire Garnier's "goatesse" with nutrichinium but it just doesn't give me the body & shine I crave... Because I'm worth it.
My hair used to be about 0.44 fathoms back in the day, but now on account of the recedingness it's cut to 0.02 3/32ths of a furlong. Incidentally my beard length is now a whopping 23 milli-light-yards.
Yep, there's a "guest lesson" thing with a bunch of 7string stuff in there. It's in the January issue with Zakk on the front. Unusual & cool to see anything for 7string in a guitar mag... :yesway: Mostly sweeping stuff. They're open G tuned (GCGCGCE), but use "standard" shapes (!) To...
I have a Squier 7 string & it's actually okay ( after I set it up ). Sure it was cheap, I got it off ebay, but after a minor fret-dress, new strings, trussrod tweak & trem adjust it's pretty good for a beater... Maybe I just got lucky!
I still play my 6strings quite a lot. Strat & lap-steel for blues. I keep the cittern in my bedroom for casual strumming/noodling or for working out ideas that just come to me, or for taking camping etc. I find that swapping back & forth between 6 & 7 keeps ideas & hands "fresh"...
I use those Zakk Boomers too, they're nice & un-muddy. I'm using a "hybrid" set made up from these, 10-70, no worries! If you don't want to go that heavy use the Zakk Wylde 10-60 set with a 26 for the middle string...
If your live set consists of bridge pickup set to max vol&tone for rhythm, and a bit of wah during leads ( which mine did at the time ) then what's the problem? A guitar is a tool for a job... For playing different styles I like the versatility of vol & tone controls cos I play around with...
I had a Yamaha years back with no tone knob, I wired in a "kill-switch" ( mini toggle ) for doing staccato nonsense... I never used the volume knob but never though of removing it completely, I wish I'd've thought of that at the time as it would've looked pretty cool. Incidentally it was an...
