Hi All, I have a slight dilemma. I've been playing the gutar for approx 18 years and I am technically quite proficient. However, I want to get a lot better and I want to be a much better musician. The problem is I am not a beginner at all and all books assume that as you progress you are...

Hi fellow guitarplayers, For the moment I'm finished playing rock and will enter the worlm of jazz. In my last songs I came some way using bluenotes and stuff but now I'm in for the real thing. Download: Unity Village.mp3 I recorded this song using my new Epiphone Joe Pass. Great guitar, but...

I'm selling off most of my CDs and figured I would try listing the guitar-heavy music on here. Here's the deal - shipping is only inside the continental US - flat rate of $1.50 for any single CD. If you want more than one (and I am really hoping to sell multiple discs to everyone), let me know...

This should be fun, usually people show pics of the old gear or something isnt the same or something new was added.. This thread is to show your current gear as it sits right now... Mine as of 5-09-07 at 5:28pm EST LMAO Behringer BTR2000 Rack Tuner Furman M8 Power Conditioner Crown XLS202...

Hi fellow Philosophers, Dead bunnies are a sad thing, so download: Sad_Dead_Bunny.mp3 This song, with Wooten on bass, is quite "fragmented", but so are dead bunnys ... aight?! Post your dead bunny IMG in your reply. Guitar - Wouter Bosch Bassguitar - Victor Wooten Drums - Neil Conti...

Wow, a true master here (practically invented slap, apparently), enjoy....

Just slowly learning "The Vision" from Victor Wooten.. I make a couple mistakes but im still learning it.. Its a pain so far LOL.. Anyways everyone else shares and I always feel embaresed but since I got my bass a couple weeks ago I am just loving it.. 4.5 megs you can stream or save as up to...

I'm sure this kinda thread has crept up before, but anyway... It's no secret that Paul Gilbert is my favourite player of all time, but to me he is great on his own. If I were to pick a dream line-up for a band it'd probably be... Sebastian Bach - vocals Steve Vai - lead guitar James Hetfield -...

I've been thinking recently about a few myths that surround guitarists and their type and I think there is a pretty good debate for each of them. Right now though in this thread, one of these myths springs to mind and that is when a guitar has a "Fast neck." Most people think that a thin and...

IbanezGirl, that would be a good poll! :o The only music DVD's I watch are of Joe Satriani and Steve Vai. So I'm not able to post a top 10. But of all the Satriani/Vai/G3 DVD's, my favourite would have to be 'Joe Satriani/Eric Johnson/Steve Vai in concert'. It's still the coolest DVD that has...

Something different lets take a small second of our time and give credit to where credit is due.. The masters of the low end.. Ill go first with some of my favorite bass players.. Victor Wooten: "Norwegian Wood" "Amazing Grace" Stanley Clarke: "School Days" "Rite Of Strings" Jaco...

I was just watching this vid and i HAD to share it with you guys.... Make sure to watch it all the way through though! I really love Victor Wooten:D Feel free to post other groovy guitar, bass vids etc:)

Had platinum tickets to Satriani monday night in Tampa. Shook hands with the man himself!!!! This is info from his crew......There will be no Vai going out with G3 this fall. He has commitments to the Zappa thing he's doing so it will be Satch and some all new players. It is going to be strange...

Toss up between Stu Hamm ans Billy Sheehan. Stu Hamms studio work on PAW is immaculate but Sheehans live performances are the best.

Ok was just messing around and kinda figured this out by accident really LOL.. This was just whipped up I will try to add some more to it tommorrow maybe a bass line to go with it. Dimarzio Fred in bridge position.. Its very very raw right now but thought it was cool enough to share since I...

tadpiecka.com, check it out. This guy is a buddy of mine from berklee. I have mixed feelings about his style of playing. He's very original and has a unique approach much like that of Michael Hedges. My personal opinion is that he's got promise but he needs to work on the fundamentals a bit...

I was going through my buddy's CD collection and I realized 90-95% of his music was metal/prog/shred. He doesn't even own a Zeppelin album (is that legal?!?!). What do y'all listen to? Does anyone jam something totally weird that you wouldn't think a typical Jemsite reader would listen to...

Check it out, it`s cool.
