    Quick question about telecasters and tuning changing

Is it worth it and more importantly for example if I were doing a live set could I change between tunings on the...

    Live Gear Backups. What Do You Use?

    I'm really curious to hear everybody's thoughts on live backup gear. Most of us obviously can't bring full duplicate rigs in case something goes sideways, so what do you do? Personally, here's what I do: I bring two guitars to every show even though I only ever use one during the whole set. If...

    How do you balance playing and gigging heavy guitars?

    Hey all. Quick questions here. I recently had to make inventory of my guitars to make some decisions on how long I play a few of them. I had a serious disc rupture a few yeas ago and it's always been a weak spot since. Early this year I fell on the ice and had lumbago for about two weeks...

    Live(!) Online Lessons

    Hi everyone, I'm a lazy bastard. Unfortunately progressing in guitar playing means sitting down and playing (for hours). I have never been good at motivating myself to practice anything and I should be at a different skill level for the years I have been playing. Please don't think I don't love...

    Is there is a stigma to using a backing track for a live performance?

    After trying time after time to get a band together I became a solo artist, and I'm currently recording my debut EP. My plan was to release this EP and then make another file without the parts I plan on playing live. Essentially having a backing track without the parts I would be playing live...

    What makes a good live instrumental performance?

    1. When you decide to see an instrumental band you're familiar with and like, what makes you want to see them live as opposed to just listening to their studio recordings? Is it just the spectacle of the technical execution? I'm thinking about non-improv based performers - CHON/AAL/bands with...
