Re: Neil Young - The Losing End (5 replies, posted in My local band and me)
Mmm weird, because I accepted the google translations ^^
I checked my settings in FB, and it said it would auto-translate to English (I'm guessing where possible), and some of the people whom I'm friends with write in Hokkien and Mandarin - I get the Chinese symbols with a link at the end to translate ... but they are comments on posts, rather than the posts themselves, maybe that's the difference .. ??
Cheers

OMG, neo. i don't change my strings often and i have 6 unopened packs in my drawer, but i couldn't abuse my beauties by nor restringing for 2 years, the sweaty fingers alone would make them black and toneless in 6 months! see, i told you i don't change them often
The Elixirs still sound good after that 18 months ... this was the last video I did with those 'old strings' on: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HOu1GymPpK0

Re: Recommended guitar course (38 replies, posted in JamPlay.com)
Hi everyone, I want to start playing a guitar but I don't have any idea with any of these topics. I might need some help to decide which brand to buy since I don't have much of a budget. I have been searching online and found several reviews like musicadvisor.com/?s=bass+guitar
It would be a great help to hear some opinions for those who really plays. I am open to any suggestions.Thanks
Are you going acoustic or electric??

Re: The time is right! (27 replies, posted in Guitars and accessories)
Evening everybody, here it is near 7 pm on Thursday night of February 8th 2018, and I thought I would let you all know how much I am enjoying my Gibson guitar. I am just about ready to put the third set of strings on, which I will do tomorrow. I guess that tells ya something, don’t it! What a player, and what sound! And it’s so light! If I knew how to post pictures I would so I will ask my wife to give me a crash course and I will try to post some. I just wanted to let you all know I was enjoying the guitar to the fullest and to say hello! Your friendTrevor Calhoun.
That's good news!! As far as strings go, I always use the Elixer Polyweb coated strings; they seem to last forever:
As far as posting images goes, have a quick look at the BBCode page which shows you haw to do it:

HTH!!

Re: Two part done dance tracks (8 replies, posted in My local band and me)
Cheers Richard. I had a listen to both tracks thought the second one was better, Were they done with wave samples?
They actually start around here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MRpniJY … mp;index=1
The early ones were done with "Beatwave", there's a review article here, mostly when I was on the way to work and on the train ...
The later ones (and the ones you listened to), are done with Novation Launchpad on the iPad.
I like pine tree blues, Also nothing like being out in nature.
Cheers, we're actually about 100 metres from a fairly major road, and it's just over the lake from where we live ![]()
That was Kenny aka kap54 singing let it be goodbye.
Sounded pretty good!!!
