Dude, that is a nice guitar. What made you choose that bridge?

What pickups you got in there? Are they 85's

Thank you. Actually, the guitar was already constructed, and that's the bridge the luthier already put in the guitar. The mics...the mics are made by some guy in japan, in which you can tell him which material and how the mic will be constructed. If this is useful, they are alnico 5. Quite clean, I must say.

here's my baby

(http://www.mogarmusic.it/images/prodotti/2510012117001.jpg)

ibanez v50

however, I plan to buy either electric ibanez or some bass.

Post by: 13hourstoparadise on Feb 24, 2008, 05:10 PM
I have the same Ibenez, but the 24 fret model... Great acoustic...

Remove the strings and boil them in water for 20 minutes.... If you like the bright sound.

Man I wish I had a decent camera, my whole apartment is filled with music equipment... However I just sold my 88' fender bullet bass, I'm getting a microKORG and fender p-bass shortly.

Hm, I'm playing my guitar pretty much everyday. I'm really into composing songs and playing random stuff.
Also, me and my friend are writing stuff for our upcoming release.. I couldn't really define the genre of our played music - shoegaze, post-rock, ambient, dream pop, indie.. I am really looking forward to recording our stuff and sharing it :)
Though, I guess, it will not happen really soon - I'm quite a perfectionist.

how to best record acoustic guitar on your pc?

sorry for a noob question...  :-[
Title: Re: The post a photo of your instrument thread
Post by: Deftones-argentina on Mar 13, 2008, 12:42 AM
no problem. you should put a mic ummm...below the guitar's hole. something like this:


                  (mic)     V
==========         O                     )
Title: Re: The post a photo of your instrument thread
Post by: whodunit? on Mar 13, 2008, 01:02 AM
I know there is a kind of thing you put on this hole and just put the plug to your computer. you simply turn your acoustic into "electric " guitar.

not that recommendable quality wise. The sound from the plug is ammm...too nosy. If you want more of a real sound, I'd recommend close micking.

Bwahahahaa! That was some funny shit...

Best way to record acoustic?

Use an acoustic electric, then the power cable would need to connect to a mixer, then from the mixer the analog signal would be encapulated into digital where software could read, re-amplify and record the data...

You know what, I would recommend google.

My tele with Dimarzio Paf pro humbucker and hs2 single coil pickups ( I know what you're thinking but this sound is warmer and deeper than the 2 singlecoils *nod*)
I miss it very very much all of a sudden (amp with a friend in another city and the guitar is at a friends place)

Dean Evo Premium.  I've got the Tiger Eye (2nd from right).  Sweet guitar, the only complaint I have with it is that it weighs a ton.  I'd like to get a Gibson SG and some sort of Baritone/7-string monster so I could play some heavier stuff too.  I was planning on getting this until I got laid off a couple months ago, so it has been put on hold:
