Well, I did it again! Here is my new Limited Release ES-330: Closeup of the body: Just a plain head stock: And the back I picked it up used but you wouldn't know it. Someone sold this to Guitar Center in Cincinnati, OH on Christmas Eve. They originally purchased it from Sweetwater because the checklist was still in the case. The only problem I found was that the nut slots were cut too low. I don't know if it came from the factory that way or the previous owner lowered them. I used the superglue/bone dust trick to raise the slots. I purchased a set of the nut files that Greg Voros recommends and re-cut them to the proper height. It plays like a dream now! Ben p.s. My daughter got a nice DSLR camera for Christmas so I borrowed it to take more professional looking pictures. If I could just get the creases out of my backdrop it may look like I know what I'm doing!

I don't know if there were any other authorized admins on that... no one has updated that site in quite some time, and since Mike M has passed ?, I'm not sure if anyone can. Haven't looked at those files in quite some time myself.

I just signed in. The last time anything changed was Jan 9, 2012.

David, here's a good tutorial on transposition.

Just registered! I'm excited to meet everyone. You guys give me the motivation I need to practice.

I think you'll like the gear and Reaper @Dave. Kenny Gioia's instructional videos are very good, and they are on Reaper's website too, as well as YouTube.

Those are nice guitars @Magnit - I can see why you are gassing for one! I have owned a Composite Acoustics for a number of years and it is a great guitar to take on trips. I hate traveling with a wood guitar and worrying if it is getting too hot (or cold) if left in the car. Someday, someone is going to figure out how to tweak carbon fiber guitars to sound like any wood guitar. Want your carbon fiber guitar to sound like a prewar Martin, a '30s Gibson, etc. - no problem. They are not there yet (my Composite Acoustics is built like a tank, and very heavy) - but it will happen some day. They are already making significant progress with violins.

@Eracer_Team-DougH @dave Sorry guys that is different. I was wondering why someone was thinking about L&M Guitar after they already joined the forum. L&M is taken around here.?
