What a great way to wrap up the year this FSOTM thread really captures the full Christmas spirit, from heartfelt and reflective songs to humorous, foot-tapping performances. It’s lovely to see such a supportive and encouraging exchange here, especially with people sharing originals, covers, lyrics, chords, and even health updates along the way. Big credit to everyone contributing and cheering each other on; this kind of community interaction is exactly what makes these monthly features special. Looking forward to hearing more festive entries as December rolls on.

Re: Cables Balanced and Unbalanced (6 replies, posted in Guitars and accessories)
Balanced vs unbalanced really comes down to distance and noise control. If you’re running a short guitar cable into an amp, unbalanced works perfectly and is the standard. But once you start dealing with longer runs, like going from a stage box to a mixer or connecting gear across a room balanced cables become the safer choice because they cancel out interference. In simple terms: short = unbalanced is fine, long = go balanced if the gear supports it. Keeps your signal clean and avoids all the hums and buzzes that can creep in.
