I have a sm57 with the yellow and green wires disconnected from the contacts where you can see if you unscrew the top from the bottom half; that's what happens if you get curious. The microphone works if I hold the wires onto the contacts. I would prefer a solid contact rather than do it the...

There's someone selling a univox u-65rn in my area, it says 50w on the back, 10" speaker for $75. From what I read online it's a ss amp that actually outputs around 10-15w. From reviews the amp is not loud cranked, great for cleans and nice overdriven sound. What do you guys know about this...

So I was messing around with the magnets in my pickup and I complete separated the base from the rest of the pickup. The two black wires coming from the coil broke. So to fix it I did a really ghetto repair. I duck taped one wire to the base plate of the pickup and other to the ground, this...

I need some headphones now for listening to music and watching videos on my computer because my brother took back his computer speakers from me. I plan to run the headphones from the 1/4" jack output from my toneport. I not sure if sound quality will be concern if I get 1/8" converter if the...

I'm trying to get a similar chorus sound in this song starting at 31 secs or 2:36 http://youtube.com/watch?v=OiZscy6r3Xg Do you guys think the ce-3 would get close to that tone or should I get something different? I'm trying to stay low with prices, so I'm guessing around $50 would be my price...

I just got a regular standard monster cable, but I just got it for testing the mic I just got. I plan to return the cable back to gc soon cause they didn't have much of a selection, and I thought I could get better advice for what xlr cable to get from here on the forum. I'm looking to get a...

I just recently got a sm57 and I started recording stuff. When i use audition 2.0 it stops recording when I click on the another program, so it runs in the background. My question is Do you need to have Audition to be the active window at all times just so you can record? If it does not how...

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QV6RByAiZwM This one of my favorite p90 tones, to me it sounds like a overdriven tone with a medium amount of distortion. I was wondering if I can get this type tone with an overdrive pedal in front of my amp or is the only way by just cranking up the volume to...

Wow just learned the coolest trick to find where fret buzzing is coming from http://mysite.verizon.net/jazz.guitar/guitarsetup.htm#Truss%20Rod%20Adjustment It just makes perfect sense that it reads something when a fret buzzes cause the string contact a metal fret.

Today when I went to grab my guitar out the case I saw a spider on the handle. So I shoved it away and I opened the case. I was shocked to find a bunch of they baby spiders on my case. I know spiders have sacs they leave where there can be hundreds of babies, so that pretty much sucks. I...

I just played my marshall today and the sound cut out a few times completely. Once that happened I tested the cable by moving it around to in the speaker output to see if that could be the problem. When I did that the sound cut out while I was turning the jack in the output. Then I tried...

I just recently read that lighter fluid or napthla as some call it, is great for cleaning guitars. I was just wondering what brands I should use. I'm not sure if the chemical makeup is different between the brands/types or not.

I have a celestion g12t-75 16ohm speaker thats in good condition. Today I checked for any rips in the cone or any problems, there was none. These were in my cab I bought from ebay. The sticker on it says the cab was from 1997. The speaker says ipswitch england something so its probably from...

My cousin is looking for a extremely cheap guitar because his just a poor college student. I know that is going to be very tough to do with low prices, especially at limit around $60. I don't know of any new guitars that cheap that may be okay, so used should be way he should go. I had him...

The main thing I'm looking at about choosing between the two is the inputs. The ux2 has phantom power, but the ux1 does not. I plan to just get a sm57 for recording some vocals and guitar amp recording. I'm pretty sure the sm57 does not need phantom power, but what else would need to use it...
