    How to play alongside slap bass?

    You know? I've been wondering how other guitarists accompany players that use the slap bass technique. I tend to either do distorted palm mute picking or clean jazz chord strumming (9th chords, etc). How would you accompany slap bass? I'm sure it'll vary by the style and key, so lets say to...

    Boss DD-20/Line6 DL-4

    I need a delay pedal that can do looping and reversing. The thing is, I want each note to be reversed, so it'll sound more like the notes are swelling in. Tap delay is nice, and from the experience I've had, the tone one can get from a Boss is very nice, and the DL-4 is really easy to use...

    Pimp my guitar! (Electronics)

    :13: As the thread name states, help me pimp out my guitar by upgrading the electronics. All I know about the guitar is that it's an Agile 3000M from Rondo (minus the improved bridges, any specs are here: http://www.rondomusic.com/al3000prest.html) A kill switch will be added to the guitar...

    Getting overtones with gain.

    Is there a certain setting that people use to get overtones to all project out and not sound like crap under gain? (i.e. C#m7, Bdim, etc) I'm using two amps/guitars: Fat strat w/Invader (It's hard to with this pickup, I'm aware). LP copy w/Custom Vox AD30VT Traynor YCV40

    So, what Attenuator to get?

    I'm trying to overdrive my Traynor (40 watt/Combo), so I'm searching for an attenuator for me to use in the studio. What attenuators would be my best option? I've been looking into Hot Plates.

    A question about recording.

    Hey! I've been doing a lot of recording lately with my band using a Behringer UB1202, and the results we've gotten were...alright. However, there's one thing I've always wanted to do. I've been wondering how I can have a few mics setup, and have them all record in a different track in my...

    Need a pedal.

    As the title reads, I need a new pedal. This is my current setup: Agile LP copy with Duncan Custom in bridge->GE-7->Traynor YCV40. In all honesty, I've only used my GE-7 once with the traynor and it got excessively loud (I use it as a boost and plan to keep it that way). However, I'm not...

    Options regarding my Traynor.

    Hiya guys, I've been playing a pretty amazing Traynor YCV40 and I'm feeling like doing something to it. The amp is really good for classic rock (think AC/DC, Zepplin, and some rockabilly) as well as some medium gain rock. However, it doesn't have that darkish twang I like from guitar amps (the...

    So I scored a SM58 today

    I went to a flea market in the city, and I scored a Shure SM58 with the switch for $10. The grille has three really noticeable dents, which I doubt will affect recording. But my concern is the grill. I took it off (by pulling it up since turning it did nothing) to see if it really did look like...

    4x10 or 2x12?

    Hey, I wanted to know which of these speaker combinations sounds better for a Fender DeVille? I tried out a Fender tube amp that I fell in love with, but I didn't catch the specs or anything. I'm assuming it was the Deville as it was +$600, but the casing was purple-ish. It was weird, but it was...

    So now what (theory)?

    Alright, I'm arranging this piece, and from what I've learned, it starts off in the key of A Lydian (so it's in the key of E). Now, my question is...Which chords could I aug/dim/sus? How do I alter the mood of the song based on theory? I'm hoping to make this song +5 minutes of pure...

    To modify or not, that is the question.

    My Vox is just not cutting it with the cleans as they're too low, and I'm seeking a bit better tone. So now I'm wondering whether if I should modify my amp or save up that money and invest it in a tube amp. Now here's the problem: If I start to save up, I'm going to buy the Crate V30 Palomino...

    I need help identifying some chords.

    These are weird jazz chords that I just can't quite figure out. Here's a link to the song: Morning In The Moonlight Identifying at least one chord would help me A LOT.

    Another tab request.

    Okay, I just can't seem to figure this one out. It's in Eb tunning, but later in the song, I think there's a part where it's Drop Db. I know that there's two guitarist in this song, but one guitar would be nice. I removed the vocals so that the guitars can be heard better (I don't need the solo...

    I need help tabbing something out.

    It's not that I can't, it's just that I don't know what chords they're using! They're jazz chords, I think, and have a lot of weird progressions. The tunning is Eb because that's the tunning they recorded the CD with. Here's a link to one of the songs. Here's a link to the tab I got so far...
