    USB vs. FIREWIRE

    I know FireWire is a bit faster than USB 2.0 but is there any real difference when it comes to recording? I heard that USB 2.0 is only fast enough to record one track at a time. So why are there USB audio interface with more than 1 mic or line in input jacks?

    Fender Japan Amps

    Does anybody know anything about them? I'm thinking about the SDR-15CE. It's your basic 15 watt solid state guitar amp with reverb. http://www.musicland.co.jp/shop/itemdetail/6208/1235/408/3966/422/ http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xDphc0xBxjE...

    Guitar Cable Problems!

    My cable from Beez is getting a little weird. Sometimes there is no or less sound. I have to rotate the plug (guitar side) and tweak it until I get my full sound back.

    Mic recommendations?

    Planning on using a mic to record vocals, acoustic guitars and electric guitar (amps). The mic would probably go straight into a Line 6 Studio UX2 which goes into a USB (PC). My budget is around $150. And I'm willing to buy 2nd hand... I was thinking about the SM57 but I heard it's really bad...

    Edwards Guitars

    I've decided to buy an Edwards LP98 LTS in vintage honeyburst. Would it be cheaper to buy it in Japan or buy it in Singapore? How much does Davis sell it for? Ishibashi sells it for 82,320 yen (1378 SGD according to xe.com). http://www.ishibashi-webshop.jp/shop/g/g311696600/

    Amp in Japan?

    Alright, here is the deal. I want to buy a Roland Cube 15x from Swee Lee. However, there is a possibility that I will be moving to Japan in the next couple of months.

    Where should I buy guitars overseas?

    Hey everybody... I'm planning on buying a guitar from either Japan or the U.S. From which country should I purchase a guitar? I'm thinking the U.S... Musicians Friend would probably be the cheapest U.S. based online instrument store right?
