I don’t know what model my keyboard is.

It has a chord dictionary, and a lot of different voices, but how can I make the keyboard sound like a strumming guitar?

Valdez asked:


My present guitar has got old and it sounds really ugly, I tried to do a lot of things to make the sound better - used different kinds of strings and even brought it to the guitar master, but nothing changed… Seems it has already time to purchase another one… So, any ideas concerning a good guitar brand that wouldn’t be too expensive?

B.J. asked:


Does it just take a lot of practice and my hands need to be more disciplined? I taught myself how to play the guitar solo in Smells Like Teen Spirit (by Nirvana), and sometimes I hear the other strings buzzing. I think it’s because either my pick is touching the strings of the guitar, or my fingers on my fretting hand is touching the other strings sometimes. Do I need to practice palm muting more?

Brent asked:


I’ve started playing guitar around 15 and I’m 17 now. I’ve never really got into soloing and I’ve always loved mellow acoustic and reggae feels. I want to play music professionally, but I’m not at the soloing stage of guitar. I sit down a lot of the time and write songs on my acoustic guitar. Usually, they are just rhythm guitar chords I play while I write songs. What do I do to improve and make it in the music industry?

JoeT asked:


I am customizing a guitar with a lot of different tones, but the most important one is the jazz neck pickup - I want that mellow, chimey, bell-like jazz guitar sound, primarily for solo jazz. I am currently using a dearmond jazz pickup in the neck, and it sounds pretty darn good. I am wondering if Gibson Classic 57’s or another jazz pickup would work even better. Eager to hear thoughts and/or suggestions.

I have a guitar and I want to make it look more natural. But I do not want to compromise the sound of the guitar at all. My question is, is there a way to remove the gloss without compromising the guitar’s sound?
I am currently without a lot of cash so I would not be able to buy a new guitar or pay someone else to fix it. So any information you have that I could do myself would be awsome.
