    Want to listen to music on the go- What should I be looking into?

    So... Keep in mind that I'm like a billion years old and have never gotten into this before. But I want to start listening to music when I'm outdoors doing yard-work and stuff. And I have no idea what I should be considering. I want a cheap as possible solution but not bottom tier quality as...

    Looking for opinions on mismatched hardware finishes

    I know that it's all about what I personally find acceptable but the SSO community always seems to have some great perspectives about things that I often never consider. So to get this outside of my headspace, I'd like to hear your thoughts: I have a guitar with all gloss black hardware. And...

    Few questions regarding swapping out FR Special to Original

    I'm looking at replacing a FR Special in my Schecter Sun Valley SS to an Original but hitting some roadblocks here- I'm not wanting to spend an arm but I didn't realize upgrading a FR Special would be so costly. And digging deeper, seems that Original FR's are not exactly abundant around the...

    What's this?

    Came with my FR equipped guitar. I've probably acquired others over the years but never thought about what they're for. Thanks for the enlightenment.

    Those of you that sometimes use a rubber band... what for?

    I feel like there are lots of people that are always or occasionally using rubber bands but for what? I've got a few... some small ones, some smaller ones, and some pretty large ones... But I don't know what I can use them for. Any ideas? And for those of you that never use them... why not...

    Sustain Pedal to Best Emulate Sustainiac Pickup

    Double cat people

    Looking for comments from anyone that might've dealt with having an older cat then later adopting a kitten. My wife wants a kitten and I'm not at all sold on the idea. We have one cat that we absolutely love and at least for me, I'm pretty apprehensive to adopt another right now. Our current...

    Please help me find the right instrument cable

    Hopefully this thread won't be criticized too harshly despite the lame and probably over-analyzed topic. I ask because I see a lot of brands and models that I'm unfamiliar with so hopefully posting here might prevent me from winding up with something I'm not happy with. What I need is a 10'...

    NBD Short Scale - Impressive yet inexpensive

    This is a 28.6" scale Ibanez MiKro GSRM20. Only reason that I wanted to post this is for guitarists that might want an inexpensive bass for recording tracks or that just want something to mess around with when not in the mood to play reg guitar. In my case it was actually due to physical...

    Inspiring others to play feels good ( warning: long read)

    So I was talking guitars with an old 'work buddy' recently and he happened to mention that whenever he gets the urge to play, that he quickly becomes discouraged due to the condition of his guitar and the fact that it hurts his fingers because of the high action. It's an old beat-up acoustic...
