I went to the site, neo and it looks cool, but is the site supposed to let you hear the tunings  as they change?

I don't think so  - TBH I usually browse with my speakers off, as the pop-up videos on random site really annoy me ... especially when a few open at once ...

I'd recommend the one you feel most comfortable with ... both financially, and in your hands, as there is nothing worse than having a guitar you don't want to play ...

Makes and models don't really come into play when it feels "right" (although I do like the Ibanez range!!) ...

Cheers

Thanks, there are some other random bands I've been in on this page https://www.facebook.com/richard.mortim … amp;type=3

Thanks, we used a Tascam 488 hooked up to a sync box , which ran an old program from Opcode called EZVision - that ran the MIDI code for the Roland Canvas SC-55 sound module and controlled most of the drums and the bass and a few sound FX's from the module ... my friend (Phil) played guitar on this track, as he's the better player, and I programmed, played keyboards and sang.

This is a pic of me when we were working on the album:

And this is us in the band (Phil is on the left, I'm on the right, keyboard and drummer in between):

I've got a better pic of the studio setup somewhere, if I can find it, I'll post it up ...

Cheers

Richard

once you met the challenge that you could post other songs as a challenge.

That's an interesting take - I didn't see it that way, but maybe the original post should read something along the lines of "you can challenge anyone else within the context of the songs mentioned" ... ('cause I made the same mistake, but mine was just me getting carried away with a session of playing and recording, because the wife and kids went to bed early, and I got some rare time to myself ....)

You'll need to download the chordpro version of the song ... click on the "eye" (view), then get to the chordpro version - then copy and paste the text from the song into a text editor and save it locally on the iPad ... I can't remember if "Set Lyst" has a specific place it looks, such as the iCloud drive, or if it does the editing itself ... I seem to remember after trying them all out, that OnSong was the best of them all, although it is a bit pricey now ... HTH!!
