  1. Guitar: Tech, Electronics and DIY
    *Edit, Was supposed to say harder than it sounds... I was thinking, I have some stompboxes that are not MIDI controllable, but I sure would like them to be. Would it be possible to wire a transistor with, or in place of the bypass switch? Since my (faux)MIDI footswitch was made and programmed...

    Fret Polishing Rubber Erasers 1000 Grit Set of 2 - Philadelphia Luthier Tools & Supplies, LLC These things are friggin' AWESOME. They're easier to use than the Dunlop micofiber fret polishing cloth, don't clog up as quickly, and the frets come out just as smooth and shiny.
  3. Guitar: Theory & Playing
    This was something I noticed over the weekend, for some reason, and have started thinking about - when you play a trill, do you start the trill with a hammer-on or a pull off?

  6. Guitar: Instrument Discussion
    Whenever I change the strings (not often because it's a PITA), I clip all of them at once. I do this so I can clean the grime off the fretboard, which is something you can't do if you're changing them one by one. So, the whole procedure takes me about 45 minutes to an hour because I usually...
  7. MG.ORG Status Updates
    Ok, so usually after I hit the "new posts" and browse things, I goto the User CP, click on something that has been thanked of mine, and then click on my user name in that post to get to the "Find more posts by user Regor" thing. Is there an easier way to look up threads I've posted in...
