  1. Well i think its a lot more to it then that. Because you cant  give a speech at a wedding in the style of the Blues or Jazz. Rock or country maybe. Blues more like a speech at a  AA meeting. Jazz a happy speech at a AA meeting.  

    If you stay on topic and in the realm of the progression. and the mood of the song. you should be able to give a great speech. Just dont think that the people listening is hard of hearing and repeat  the some old tune over and over again.

    In the world great player come up with great pieces  and people just dont like them so they have to play what sells. they go and see him play what they like . and players give them what they want. that causes the repeater pencil. A preacher dont go off topic on sunday. Does that make him a Repeater pencil He changes the speech but its the same old song and Dance.

    So there is a lot more to it then just a speech. It s the emotions of the speech. and topic. That picks what"s played.

  2. First How are you doing , great to see you here. My guess is they wanted the Guitar part  and the Voice part to stand out above the rest of the parts . to be heard clear then the rest . Or the songs are easier to play in the octave above My guess. Great to hear from you. 

  3. Lets see if this helps. A minor And C Major . Are in the first position  the fifth fret. that is the position for all Root notes. If the root is D you play the first position on the 10th Fret. same as Am and C on the 5th fret. all the pattern move up the neck till you run out of space but they continue back at the Nut.  If you use the First position at the 12 fret . then you have the other four position start back at the nut.  Position 1 is the root . Position 2 is the next note in the Scale . position 3 is the next note in that scale. and so on. The positions move to fit Scale of the Root Note.

    Is it possible to lock the Edge Bridge on an Ibanez Jem so that it doesn't move at all whilst learning the guitar and then introduce it when I am ready. Or should I just leave it as it is.

    If you are talking about the tremolo Bar . i would take it off for beginner learning . the round part it sticks in  just unscrews and pull it out. and you can replace in the same way . i have to take mine out to put in case.
