Saw an interesting piece off TGP, which originally came from the Barber forum and was written by Dave Barber about how to make OD pedals work with a rig and why some people have trouble doing that. Pedals and amps and speakers OH MY! - forum.TPNgear.com +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++...

Glad to see Seymour try his hand at a commerical solution for multiple pickup tones. I wonder if he took inspiration from PRS's solution on the 513 which was a good try but raised user feedback that the pickups were proprietary and the pickup slots didnt cater to other after-market pickups...

http://www.kartingasia.com is an Asian centred site for karters around the region. The Singapore karting section is beginning to atract more interest and a group of them have already made a trip to Permas for a karting excursion. I believe the next one is in Jan 2008...

The following site gives ideas of amp volume isolation solutions. This alone would not cut volumes of a raging amp to a whisper, but it can if used in conjunction with other sound management tools; i.e. low wattage amps, inefficient speakers, usage of attenuator...

Kudos to Glide who posted these clips on TGP and Mlongano who organised the event. This was a North Carolina tonefest equivalent that TGP members organise periodically. On each successive one I've seen, the recording and the demo structure gets better. Just in case, anyone missed these on TGP...

Lately I've been very into reliced Strat-styled guitars, initially out of curiousity since some of them had great cosmetics. Having had the chance to play a few, I can vouch that the good sounding ones have a lil' "mojo"; combining good playability with a worn-in feel and an open sounding tone...

This is a link off TGP with the individual's detailed report and lots of mouth watering photos. Since some of us do travel to Japan once in awhile, I thought its a useful link for anyone interested to read. Photos are across first 4 pages. Cheers...

Recent article in the Wall Street Journal. -------- CORONA, Calif. -- At the Fender guitar factory here recently, Mike Eldred carefully laid the freshly painted body of a baby blue Stratocaster on a workbench. He then proceeded to scar the new instrument's delicate lacquer surface using a...

Just in case some people have missed out this style of guitar playing before., here are some videos from Youtube. Plus, its a break from the usual stereotypical guitar hero icon. Do enjoy. Raul Midon on letterman .. no, he doesnt wear sunglasses because he's trying to be cool <object...

I noticed some locals have begun looking at higher wattage tube amps and even some of the non-master replica models that Ceriatone in Malaysia offer. Are these 50 or 100 wattage amps impossible to play in an apartment in Singapore? Nope, if there is a will there is a way!! :D I have had...

Hi all, I'm just hoping if you guys know of local shops that do a decent job repainting a guitar; sanding down the current paint job and painting a new one. Or perhaps someone who does spray paint grafatti art on guitars. Appreciate if you can point me in the right direction.

Hi all, In the last 3 months, I've proceed to wind down our operations in regards to product sales. Last week, I wrote to the last manufacturer thanking them for their support and explaining my decision to end the business. Managing J&M has been a great experience for me. Its been a fun and...
