It’s on the cover of the second release of room for squares.
There are other pictures of the guitar in other places too. With other performers. It looks like the guitar has unparrallel frets and a scalloped fretboard. Where can I find this guitar? Does anyone know?

admin — Sun, 28 Feb 2010 16:00:14 +0000

I am trying to learn guitar scales and i have a book that shows all of the mainscales in E and it says you can play these scales anywhere on the fretboard.

Perfect Guitar Neck For Sweep Picking?

admin — Sat, 27 Feb 2010 22:57:55 +0000

i know les pauls and strats are hard because the way the neck is bult, the fretboard radius goes short scale to wide scale towards the end where as to jacksons and ibanezes are pretty much constant throughout the whole neck.

Is There An Easy Way To Get Rid Of Fret Buzz?

admin — Sat, 27 Feb 2010 22:57:54 +0000

My electric guitar has a lot of fret buzz on the 6th 5th and I think 4th string. I’ve only been playing for a few years, so I don’t know much about guitar repair. I have my guitar lessons in a few days, so should I just wait until then, or is there an easy way that I can solve the problem myself?

Fingerboard Inlays Guitar/bass?

admin — Sat, 27 Feb 2010 14:40:31 +0000

-how do you get finger/fretboard inlays for your guitar?
-does the inlay have to be put in professionally?
-how much does the inlay cost, and to get it put in?
-or do you have to buy a whole new neck, which i doubt…
