Hi All,

I have relativley big hands but when i try to do barre chords, especially the ones with the thumb on the top, im really struggling. when i asked my tutor about this he said that (apart from conti...







GUITAR MAINTENANCE.....

Guitar Maintenance and Guitar Set Up

Guitar Neck Adjustment or Truss Rod Adjustment- Pick up your guitar and hold the body of the guitar up to a light. Take a look from the body up the neck. Usually if you hold it up to a light source you will notice if your guitar neck is bowed or not. Most guitars have a neck adjuster at the top of the guitar (the headstock of the guitar). Depending on the type of guitar you can adjust the truss rod that is in the center of your neck. Usually a hex wrench is needed for this task. Try adjusting the truss rod to improve bow of the neck. A little bo...







Changing Your Guitar Strings on a Floyd Rose Tremolo

staggman - Sat Mar 08, 2008 11:07 am

Here's How:
Reset all fine tuning screws located on the bridge to a middle position.
Remove the sixth string from your guitar. To do this, loosen the 'string-lock screw' located at the back side of your bridge using an allen key. The string-lock screws are the screws that run parallel to the body of your guitar.
After several counter-clockwise turns, the string should pop free from the bridge.
Using an allen key, loosen the 'nut clamping block' (the part of the guitar where the neck meets the headstock) that covers the sixth and fifth string.
Once the nut clamping block is loosened, ...

Favourite Piano?

Jephth - Tue Mar 04, 2008 11:51 pm

Years ago when I was at college my parents bought me a Kemble. It sounds dead now, it's lost all of its life and so although it gave me much joy, it isn't really a piano I would buy myself.

Although I don't know what their new ones are like. This was 12-15 years ago now.

One piano I would deffinately like is a Bösendorfer. These can actually have up to 97 keys as opposed to the standard 88. It's a monster of an instrument.

Jools Holland is often seen playing one.

I'd go for one of those.
