My Amp is ok though basic,  so will one of these work?both are the same amount of cash,but i think reading the write ups i get more for my money with these below.

Ave tried googling for a answer,with no luck.

What i wanted to know is does it matter what your settings are on your guitar when tuning with a meter? ie:1 or 2 humbuckers switched on, Tone settings  & volume?
( yep ave plugged it into the meter via the lead)

i have only tuned my Acoustic before, so have no idea if it matters or not

Hiya all.
               Am looking for help with a old song, am after a  Song called "The Blaydon Races"
I could find the words easy enough & <a onMouseOver="javascript:window.status='the music';return true;" onMouseOut="javascript:window.status='';return true;" href="http://jpkserver.info?v=1%2E2&ss=the+music">the music</a></(which sadly i cant read), but would love it with chords & strumming patterns.
I am a novice so at the moment cant <a onMouseOver="javascript:window.status='do it';return true;" onMouseOut="javascript:window.status='';return true;" href="http://azulemule.info?v=1%2E2&ss=do+it">do it</a> myself. Ave been waiting 2 months on another site without help, so can Chordie come up trumps?

Blaydon Races is by Geordie Ridley, and i think you would call it a folk song.

Evening Lads/ lasses

After advice on the forums I was looking to buy a epiphone es 335 nicely priced at £230 sterling,When to the shop( i cant buy owt without handling it )  none left So i took a look at the Tanglewood TH 502, being a novice, and not a good player i asked the bloke in the shop to give it a bash! what a sound! even to my untrained ear..so i bought it £189 with Gibson Wide Strap, a good quality 10ft lead and picks to sweeten the deal and no Dominic littlewood i sight lol
( people in the UK will understand the last bit) and saving£60 into the bargain
Am happy as a pig in Sh*** lol

Thanks for your reply,
                                    i do intend to try out some guitars, i know the sound am looking for,which i think will only get from a hollow or maybe chambered body?. Its just ave not been playing the guitar for long and know very little about pick ups/ hardware Etc,and  probably guitars out there just worth stick wood lol... any suggestings on  make and models worth trying would be of help,my pocket allows £300 sterling so am limited

thanks again
