Re: Guitar Discussion Thread 2008
Long shot I know, but if anyone is interested in upgrading your pickups I have a set of HSH DiMarzios (practically new) that were taken from my RG. They will be delivered mid July and you can have a local luthier install it if you don't have the tools or hands.
I'm letting go of them for a really low price, in fact, at the same price of what a single DiMarzio humbucker goes for in India. These pickups are way better than other stock DiMarzios available on all current models. I know for a fact they sound good in Alder and Basswood because I've tested them, but a few guitarists I know vouch for them in Mahogany bodies.
Before I post this on international forums where people are spoiled with too much good stuff, I decided to check here first. Let me know if you have specific questions.

Re: Guitar Discussion Thread 2008
What kind of music do you like to hear/play? Once you've nailed your basic diatonic scales, try to spot them in songs and see how players use them to make melody (rather than run up and down the fretboard).
Learn tunes you really like and practice as much as you can... chords and rhythm are equally important and will serve as a foundation for soloing later so don't go twiddly-twiddly on the guitar all the time
The blues and pentatonic scales are very important for blues and rock, so you might want to get a hold of some Hendrix, SRV and Chuck Berry and jam along or try to follow them. Or, you can record chord progressions and solo over them for some solid practice.

Re: Guitar Discussion Thread 2008
Yea..I listen to everything from rock to metal. Basically i just want something simple (but not too simple like Nirvana and stuff )
I know my Major,Minor,Pentatonic,Blues,Chromatic scales.
I still can't spot them in songs
How do i go about it?

Re: Guitar Discussion Thread 2008
Forgive my sale posts here, I will make it up to you guys with some good lessons soon
Trying to sell my Aria Pro II and Stranger NS30 combo amp again... 10k for the Aria, 1.3k for the NS30. PM questions. Both will need to be picked up from Bangalore - I'm down for 2 days so no time to pack or ship.

Re: Guitar Discussion Thread 2008
I'll be going in for a bunch of stuff for recording soon.
On the cards (apart from the recording rig) are a bunch of mics, both condensor and dynamic, a Walden or Greg Bennet Electric/Acoustic, A Mex Fender, and a lot of stands. Maybe a Vox amp, if I can get some of my spare guitars to sell.
I'll post some recordings once I get started.

+1 for the Ernie Ball Strings, love them, and personally speaking, prefer how they sound on my acoustic as compared to D'addarios.
If you do not want to spend too much money, go for Granada Strings. they are pretty decent aswell.
