Re: Fretlight guitars (2 replies, posted in Electric)
I am hoping for some more input on this myself. I saw this on the web and have seen a few videos of it. It looks really cool and I think it would work for me but I would like to hear from some people who have actually tried it before I plonk down 500 bucks for another guitar.
Anybody tried this?

Topic: Jamorama - Don't (1 replies, posted in Chordie's Chat Corner)
I bought this course some months ago. This post is not a critique of the course. I wouldn't know how that works. I have yet to be able to try it for any length of time.
This is a critique of the Jamorama software. It is crap! When it works, it is excruciatingly slow - and that is when it works. While I did finally manage to download all the content, I have never been able to access the lessons more than a couple of times. The rest of the time, I get an error message saying there is something wrong with my account.
Upon contacting "tech support" (what a joke!), all they did was repeat the suggestions found in the FAQ. If I hadn't already tried the suggestions in the FAQ, I wouldn't have contacted their so-called "tech support." However, I dutifully tried it again. It didn't work - again. Upon reporting that, they suggested I try something else in the FAQ - and so on ...
To sum up, maybe this is a good course; maybe it isn't. But the software itself is crap. Don't waste your money.

Re: Is it to late to start playing guitar, after 30? please serious answers:-) (78 replies, posted in Chordie's Chat Corner)
Just 34? Are you kidding? You are just a youngster and should have no problems at all.
I am 59 and got a guitar about two years ago. One of the first things I discovered is that I just can't move my fingers like I would like to, but you know what? I can still play.
Don't get me wrong. I'll never be Roy Clark or Chet Atkins but so what? I am me and I'm having a great time doing what I can.
Advice: Play every single day. Never let a day go by without playing. And, SING when you play. It really helps and your singing will get better.
More advice: Play every single day. Oh, I said that but it is worth repeating. Play until just before your fingers bleed then start again the next day. It won't be long until he have a set of callouses to be proud of and you can slide your fingers up and down those strings with the best of 'em.

Topic: Setup to Record on CD (4 replies, posted in Guitars and accessories)
If this has already been covered elsewhere on Chordie, my apologies and please point me in the right direction.
I would like some information on recording voice and guitar using a computer. The end result desired is to improve singing and playing by listening to how I sound now. A by-product would be a recorded CD.
I have a computer with CD/DVD burner. I have Audacity software. I have an acoustic/electric guitar. What next?

Topic: Mechanism for barring? (11 replies, posted in Guitars and accessories)
Does anyone know of any type of thing that helps make barring easier? I was thinking of something that maybe fit on the finger sort of like a glass or metal slide but with some kind of mechanism for quick release so that finger could be used for chording. I don't know. If I had a real clear picture of what I wanted, I would make it.
