I’m planning to build a guitar with 1 humbucker (not 4 conductor). Do I solder it straight to the volume pot or do I have to worry about stuff like colour coding?

shamun_sage asked:


I’m 15 years old and I want to learn how to play the guitar, and I’m planning on taking lessons. Is it too late to start learning? What are the basics of learning guitar? What kind of guitar do I buy when starting? I’ve played piano for the last 5 years but I quit because I’ve lost interest and I didn’t practice. However, I been listening to alot of guitar pieces and I’m really interested. Is guitar, like piano for me, one of those instruments that gets boring after a while?

I’ve been able to talk down the people at guitar center before sometimes into paying less or getting a case. I’m going in to buy an Ibanez Jem7v ($2200). About how much do you think I can lower them to?

Eskimo asked:


What type of guitar will give me the most sustain?
What type body gives the most sustain?
What playing habits will give me the best sustain?
What guitar strings will give me the most sustain?
Do pickups effect sustain?
What type of guitar wood gives the most sustain?

I heard that two EMG humbuckers are the industry leader for sustain. Is this correct?

Sorry for the redundant questions, but I find that I get better answers when I do so.

Alex S asked:


I want to find a cheaper guitar, (under $1000) that provides for a heavy and intense sound. I’m looking for a sound in the vein of As I Lay Dying, The Devil Wears Prada, Underoath, Pantera, Avenged Sevenfold (older sound), confide, our last night, Alesana, ect. Overall, just a Numeatal or metal core sounding guitar.

redloner2 asked:


I have a musical background and I know how to play guitar, but I want to be a lot better. I know a guy who said Guitar Pro really helped him out, but it seems as if it’s solely a tab editing program. Anybody know anything about it?

Josh asked:


I got my guitar (BC Rich Warbeast) 365 days ago (lol christmas 08) and have never changed the strings. My guitar stills sounds great IMO. I like to play hard rock and metal and want a great tone. 1. What are the differences between thin and thick strings? 2. If my low e string was 68 gauge, how would that sound? 3. Can you tell me more about strings in general?

Derek asked:


I’ve been playing guitar for 2 1/2 years and I can play a lot metal riffs but when I get to the solos I can do any thing so what are good exercises to improve my fingers in that area. I also struggle with songs that have intricate rhythms, particulary megadeth songs. I know minor pentatonic, major and minor harmonic and minor melodic scales. I play mostly thrash metal songs.
