Hi, did another song on the same site, please comment on it, yes I know my voice is not to good, anyone know how to improve the recorded quality of the mic ?,  or do I need a better one, at present I have two, a sure look alike and a condenser, none of them expensive.

thanks selso
the effect I used was phase effect on my boss recorder, it sounds like two guitars slightly out of phase.

Hi Russell,
it is just everything, I have looked at the files that you kindly put on the site, but in my case nothing seems to work.

I do have a song at the moment that I recorded with drum machine, could I take out the start and end using audiocity ?

as always Russell, thanks for all the help that you give on the site

hi try to pick out some of the strings when you are playing a chord, arpedgio ?, it will give you a lead like sound under your chord, also try some quick up strums.
It is possable the play any guitar alone, but you will have to fill out the sound to make it interesting, it is only trial and error, if it sounds right to you it is good.
Lastly regarding sound levels, I moved to an eletric guitar, and the next day my wife got me a set of headphones, now when I play it is only me who hears it.

Sore fingers, rub your finger tips on your pants, jeans are best, this will ease your fingers, and help building callouses, you have to do it a lot.
Agree with everyone else, get it set up, you will get a new set of strings, so ask for the ones you want.
I also have an aria, it is a fair guitar that plays well.

I have shown it to "my good lady", she feel that everyone can have an opinion, thats yours, and she has hers.
We live in north wales, and we do have our share of down and outs, who try to play penny whisles and broken guitars along with the normal beggers asking for money in the streets.  I think that as we are a holiday resort a lot of people on the dole prefer to live here than in Liverpool or Manchester.
So I must agree with her, and I would not feel safe playing on the streets alone.  Up to last Sat I did play on the streets with a group called Ghostbuskers, it was organised by the recording studio I use, I will not play with them again due to the lack of effort put in by the other members.
This is just to show you that I have not dismissed your input out of hand, in fact I really apprieciate any input, so thank you

thanks Kajima,
all very good advice, and I will follow what you have said.
Thanks TonyBlue
