Hi fellow chordians
Advice please,I have a Tanglewood TH 502 semi acoustic and was wondering which strings would suit it best,Electric or Acoustic ? light or heavy ?
now i am a strummer (cant pick yet 
) and i would say pretty heavy handed, and mostly play ( and i use the word "play" very loosely )oldies 1950`s, rock n roll type of stuff.
Any tips ?
Cheers micky 
Thanks for the reply Detman,
Yes it has both drum tracks and metronome well it says metro anyway sounds like one lol

UPDATE visited the shop,and because it "played" through the Amp was told "nowt wrong wiv it"...went home NOT satisfied so i phoned a Distribution Company for Vintage guitars, which turned out to be Vintage themselves lol
got through to Tech guy sounds like a "low signal" send it back we`l fix it
So its off back to the shop the morn

hi Fellow Chordians
i think i have a problem with my guitar, well the amp i think?
it has a "shadow" brand pre amp on my electro acoustic guitar, i tried to tune my guitar via the chromatic tuner on my zoom a2.1u box and it didnt work (looked like it wasnt picking up the guitar)so i tried my tanglwood semi acoustic and it worked fine.
reet gettting back to the problem... i put in a new battery,power light not lit up? come to think of it, its never lit up 
,(lead plugged in)
zoom chromatic tuner dont reconize it?... took out the pre amp fiddled with the jack plug in back and the little power light flickered? Help!!!
1 i take it when the lead is plugged in to the guitar, the power light suposed to be lit?.. the lead to amp zoom box etc? cos it aint lit anytime.
its deffinetly not the zoom chromatic tuner as ave said it worked fine on my tanglewood.
any ideas lads & lasses?
ohhh ave been using a clip on tuner since i bought this guitar so never ran a tuner through the pre amp
cheers micky
Well done Cam !
they`l be "over the moon" with yer... i bottled my chance was gonna play "Love Me Tender" to the wife on our 25th wedding aniversary, i practiced for weeks,but sadly i bottled it and played the King singing it instead
well done again m8

Hi fellow chordians!
Well ave put getting another guitar on the back burner for now (thought better to learn how to play the ones ave got first lol 
).. but ave invested my money in what i think a nice little box of tricks 
i went for the Acoustic one
Am not very techno, but i need a new direction (help in other words,as stuck in a rut) with timming/rhythm etc, so maybe it will help?
Tried the chromatic tuner, bust the high E string and listened to a few drum settings thats all for now.
Anyone else got one of these? any advice?
Cheers micky
Ummm? i`ll watch this thread closely as i too am drawn to buying another acoustic!
How much more difficult is it to play 12 from 6 strings? am a fairly beginner too........ Hark! is that a 12 stringer yodeling my name? lol
Micky

Hiya fellow chordians
Can anyone help, am looking for the chords to a song i like.

i like both Peanuts & The Riot Rockers versions
Anyway i like it and wanna learn it but can only come up with the lyrics,did the usual google search, and thought someone might have them put away somewhere?
Sit in hope! cheers micky

hiya chordians!
Ave been trying to play Buddy Hollys "Oh Boy!" ver 2, there seems to be a bit missing as you go to the Bridge, I found a UTtube clip but its to fast to work out though it looks like its just on the E string. anyone know it?
( like a walk down/up, if thats the right expression?)approx 30 seconds played

I already searched before posting( ie: other artists, also G6 alt'),Buddy Knox was the original (i think?) which use different chords A E D and is simple to play,the one i like is titled various bands .I'll keep searching maybe i will hit lucky?
thanks micky
Hi fellow Chorians
I am in need of advice are my ears decieving me?
The song Party Doll, on chordie one version is using the G6 chord, it dont sound to clever?or as ave said are my ears decieving me ?
verse 3 uses G chord which sounds correct, guitar is in tune (electro/acoustic)
ave tried the to G6 chords i know 6th & 5 th string, also 6th only (2nd fret)
or maybe am playing them wrong (which probably most likely)?
I know theres a simple version using A E D,
cheers micky
you let the wife TOUCH IT? OOOOOOOEERRR
ahhhhhhhhh they for "dorks" & ave heard the wife saying "are you stupid" at times so they could suit me lol
cheers micky
nice clear Vid, Ken well done!
Hiya fellow chordians
Went out to buy some strings for my electro Acoustic guitar, so many to choose from (for fellow brits)i saw and bought some "RotoSound" phosphor bronze 11, mainly because they made in the UK.
Anybody heard of these? are they any good? alegedly used by "known" musicians
or shall i use the for slicing blocks of cheese instead lol
Cheers micky
