Traigh asked:


I am currently trying to build a new guitar out of an old First Act guitar body. I am having trouble picking my pickups. I am trying to get an 80’s shred-metal kind of sound out of it, similar to the sound that Randy Rhoads or Doug Marks guitars make.

I already know that i need to get humbuckers to get the higher gain and sound quality. Only problem is, i dont know which brand or type to buy. Not to mention i’m on a limited budget. Any help would be great.

Neko-chan asked:


I am taking a guitar class next semester and have the option of classical and jazz guitar. I know that the obvious answer is that with the jazz guitar you would play mostly jazz. But what differences are there? Is it a different technique? Different focus? Is one harder than the other or are they just different?

Avatar Lover! asked:


EDIT: my mom said she get me a guitar, but with no lessons. is it worth getting the guitar and learing it on your own or is it too hard and pointless getting a guitar with no lessons?
I’ve been playing the paino for 9 years now. I know how to read music.

My mom said she would get me a guitar for Christmas if I wanted. so should I get one? or is it too hard and it would be pointless to get one without lessons?
