Hi, I’m Harrison! I created this website to help musicians navigate the ins and outs of their craft and to help them choose new instruments and gear to add to their collection. I have 15 years of experience as a guitarist and singer and have also played many other instruments throughout the years including the bass guitar, piano, banjo, mandolin, and harmonica.


und einiges mehr:The upgraded Dr. Octo Rex loop player loads eight REX loops into one player and lets you switch between them on the fly. This makes arranging a breeze - load the drum loops into one player, the guitars into another and use the sequencer to select what loop to play in a pattern-like fashion.
With eight loops to switch between, the new loop player also comes ready for the experimental minded. Set the player to retrig the loops on the beat, on the bar or on the 16th note. Or program the loops manually like in the original rex player.
Getting a vocal performance right means so much more than hitting the right notes at the right time. Sometimes you get that almost perfect performance with perfect feel and presence, but the singer might have missed a few notes. That's when Neptune can save the day. Neptune is an advanced pitch adjuster, audio transposer and voice synth for Record 1.5.
As a pitch adjuster, Neptune will fine tune the pitch of an audio track to help getting your vocal performances just right. Neptune will fix the flat notes with an unbelievable audio quality . You can select a root key and a scale that you want the adjuster to use, or create a scale that fits your song. And, yes. By cranking the pitch adjustment settings to the max, you can get that effect sound too.
Analog synthesis, physical modeling, sampling, REX loops, support sound generators, effects, flexible routing, multiple hit types and more. The Kong Drum Designer is not your regular drum module. It's the drum module focused on letting you get exactly that drum sound you're after.
Kong has 16 pads and 16 drums. Build your drum sounds based on any of the nine different drum modules. Flavor the sound with 11 support generators and effects. Program automation, create alternating groups and let Reason's powerful sequencer control the beat.

Earlier this year, Lynyrd Skynyrd performed their first two studio albums, 'Pronounced 'L h-'nérd 'Skin-'nérd' and 'Second Helping ', live in their entirety for the first time, at two specially staged concerts at the Florida Theater in their home town of Jacksonville, Florida. It was a special occasion for both the act and their fans as the band performed tracks they'd never or rarely played live before alongside classic songs that are an essential part of any Lynyrd Skynyrd live show. These unique concerts are a must have for any Lynyrd Skynyrd fan.

I feel this line-up performs with more energy and emulates the original instrument parts/vocals for these two albums as good as any group of qualified musicians possibly could. Since Ronnie, Allen, Bob, Leon, and Billy are gone, I feel it is great to have these two classic albums played live, with modern video and sound recording, to document to fans -old and new- just how fantastic these songs are and to get a realistic feel of how the original line-up intended them to be played live ... Gary Rossington's current Skynyrd line-up delivers in my opinion. Their performance and words on this DVD prove to me that they care that proper respect and care is given to the original line-up and how they played on these albums. It would have been ideal if Ed King (the only remaining survivor from the original albums other than Gary Rossington) would have been invited to participate as his guitar playing and compositional skills are etched all over the Second Helping album in particular.
I recommend this CD / DVD to any Skynyrd fan ...period.

ANT. PETROF 275 grand piano, authorized by PETROF. ANT. PETROF 275 Concert Grand Piano is the PETROF company flagship, bringing the authority required for concert halls. It maintains the colourful, romantic and rounded tone which the PETROF instruments are praised for, thanks to first class materials. The instrument reflects the skills, care and innovatory spirit inherited ever since Antonín Petrof built his first grand piano in 1864.
The new pianos of premium brand ANT. PETROF were designed by the PETROF R&D Department, using an anechoic chamber for its acoustic measurements. The ANT. PETROF 275 concert grand piano includes several patented innovations, such as the newly designed solid maple bridges. The result is an exceptional bass and treble response, greater soundboard resonance, and a pure, singing tone. Moreover, its European solid spruce soundboard delivers PETROF’s characteristic romantic tone with a wide dynamic range. This physically modelled virtual instrument for Pianoteq 6 is authorized by PETROF and captures the characteristic PETROF sound with a range of presets offering a beautiful palette of timbres suitable for all kinds of music.

Compatibility with the ARM architecture means that Pianoteq 6 can be used with RISC based CPU's used in smaller Linux based consumer electronic devices. Furthermore, since Pianoteq 6.1, the NKS (Native Kontrol Standard) extended plug-in format from Native Instruments is supported.

498T and 490R
490R and 498T
amazing...i would deffinatly buy that
Thanks ;D and I keep them at about 2.5mm from the strings on both pickups. The same as my other SG and I love the tone and sustain that guitar has.
Hi folks, I was wondering what you all thought of these two pickups (498T & Seymour Duncan SH-4 JB) I am looking to replace my original bridge...
It sounds alright acoustically so i guess it must be PUPs...what do you suggest i do??
Hi, i just purchased a new 2009 SG standard and am having some sustain problems. When i hit a note it dies very quickly compared to my other SG....

我们全新的Riffendium Bass Series的第一个版本是电贝司吉他套环的集合，涵盖从烟熏的老式灵魂到快速拍打的低音演奏，非常适合Funky / Soul / Disco / Dance音乐以及电子和现代乐曲。
RIFFENDIUM SERIES is a themed sample library collection for modern producers and composers.
It includes loops of real, modeled, synthesized and designed instruments, resulting in an original palette of inspiring sounds for creators of electronic and organic music.
Our brand new Riffendium Bass Series’s first release is a collection of electric bass guitar loops which spans from smokey vintage soul to fast slap bass performances perfect for Funky/Soul/Disco/Dance music but also Electronic and Modern compositions.
RIFFENDIUM BASS includes 2 instruments: RIFFENDIUM BASS and RIFFENDIUM BASS DI, bundled in a single package. RIFFENDIUM BASS’s samples pool is made of recordings taken from the amplifier’s output and offers ready made bass guitar sounds, for a fast workflow.
RIFFENDIUM BASS DI offers samples taken from the bass guitar output signal, allowing you to use your favourite Amp Simulator and bass guitar chain, to fit your music 100%.
Generate unique custom loops by using RIFFENDIUM BASS’s articulations sequencer. Since the articulations come from a real performance, the result will always sound like a real guitarist playing a new guitar part
40 Guitar Performances
Start from one of the 40 original recordings, then edit, re-arrange the slices, randomise, save new bass guitar parts. This release includes bass guitar loops that will fit perfectly in your funky music compositions as well as many other styles of music, from rock to film scoring.
From Bass to Infinity!
RIFFENDIUM BASS’s engine makes it incredibly easy to create a bass guitar sound that fits your song, but it also allows you to build out-wordly sounds that you won’t believe they originated from a guitar performance.
No more stale one-key loops. These loops are alive!
Stale loops will hardly fit your music chords and will result as a robotic repetition of the same thing over and over. RIFFENDIUM BASS’s loops will follow your chords as they were recorded in most major and minor shapes (and more than just that). RIFFENDIUM BASS’s loops use Round Robins, therefore at every cycle the loop will sound slightly different, like a real Bass guitar performance.
Pedals, Speakers and Effects
RIFFENDIUM BASS provides the straight Amp Output signal and different Cabinets simulations for more tweak-ability. You can also bypass RIFFENDIUM BASS speaker simulations and use your favourite Cabinet impulse responses. Also, 4 distortion, 4 modulation effects plus master EQ and COmpressor/Transient designer, delay and reverb are available for more sound tweaking.

In November 2020, Jerome Froese released this compilation album as part of his 'Edition J' series as download only, thus no physical media of this release do exist so far. The digital cover artwork does not show any artist name, though the download was released under the moniker 'Jerome Froese & Tangerine Dream'. The 'Edition J' includes the albums listed below:
Unlike Rockoon and Tournado, which got a re-release on their own, most other studio and soundtrack albums contained only a handful compositions by Jerome Froese each, so he decided to release three compilation albums as part of the series. This one features tracks from the following releases:
Furthermore, there are four previously unreleased bonus tracks: two studio tracks from 1996 (Nomad and Cobalt Rain) and two recordings of Rising Haul In Silence, one of them a live rehearsal from 1996, the other one a live version from TD's Hamburg gig in 1997. All tracks have been remastered in 2020 from the original DAT tapes.

Best Musical Instrument Store – Eugene Weekly
1. McKenzie River Music 455 West 11th Avenue. 541-343-9482. McKenzieRiverMusic.com.
2. Shopping and sales center 410 E. 11th Avenue. 541-344-9273. BuyNSellEugene.com.
3. Lighthouse music 791 West 8th Avenue. 541-653-9929. BeacockMusic.com.
No one in Eugene has a better selection of stringed instruments than McKenzie River Music. McKenzie River Music owner Artie Leider says the store specializes in premium instruments for beginners, collectors or professionals. With 50 years of guitar experience, he says he’s here to walk someone through the guitar buying process. But that’s not all of the store’s offerings. The store also has a world-class guitar and violin repair staff. The name of the store is known the world over, Leider adds, so McKenzie River Music has become a stop for well-known guitarists. Recently, jazz guitarist Pat Metheny stopped by the store, but Leider says he’s had other big names like Joe Bonamassa, Jackson Browne, and Rick Nielson of Cheap Trick. And, back when Pixie frontman and solo artist Frank Black (who also goes by a bunch of other names) lived in Eugene, he frequently stopped by the store before going on tour. But Leider says the best joy he gets is selling a guitar to a young beginner: âIt’s much better than anything else. – Henri houston

The zoom format works very well and it's almost like being in the same room. Matt mixes the lessons up to include theory and playing fun songs. I would recommend Matt as a great guitar tutor. More...
Damn quick! Free trial lesson too.
Great tuition, my son is coming along really quickly. Teacher listens well to what the student needs & sets lessons to suit.
Matthew is a great teacher and the lessons are always fun.
Matt is great with the kids. Patient but also fun. Highly recommend him.
Mathew is always on time, and a very patient tutor; My daughter enjoying the lessons and feel she has learnt a lot
I recommend him a lot
Matt is a very patient teacher who will try various methods to suit the student in order for them to reach their goals. He works at a speed again of the student and not at a set one which makes any student feel more comfortable and willing to learn thus making the lessons much more enjoyable. Matt is always open to suggestions for the lessons weather it be technique, a new song or going back over something previous. The lessons are based round the ability of the student , no rushing no forced goals weather beginner or improver. As they say ‘music is for everyone’ so all the above makes this possible for you. More...
Matt used to teach my son guitar when we lived in Sussex. They always had a good time - Matt is patient, engaging and totally goes with the musical taste of students. I would absolutely recommend him
Matt is an incredible teacher. He is really versatile, and explores what kind of music inspires my daughter, and then builds up her technique and confidence playing music that she enjoys. My daughter really looks forward to her lessons, and asked me a few months ago if she could increase from 30 mins to 1 hour (which has never happened before in my household for a music lesson!). Matt has also managed the switch to virtual tuition very well and we have been continuing with weekly lessons throughout the Lock Down. Couldn't recommend him more highly! More...
Really motivated guitar lessons.
My daughter looks forward for her Fridays lessons. She is learning a new song every week and most importantly gaining confidence with her guitar. This is only possible as the teacher is patient and knows how to work with kids and motivate them. Thanks Matthew More...
Matthew is a very patient teacher and has taught my son guitar for over a year now. He was a complete beginner and with Matthews weekly lessons he is now confident to play many songs. Matthew has tailored their lessons to teach the style of music my son wanted to learn and we are very happy customers. We'd recommend Matthew to anyone wanting to learn to play guitar. More...
Lindos 269 - Alice G
Would Highly Recommend
Matthew from Guitar Function has been teaching my 9 year old niece for the last 6 months. They have been exploring a variety of instruments whilst she figured out which she preferred, including guitar, ukulele and the keyboard.
The tutors are friendly and professional and I wouldn't hesitate to recommend Guitar Function to anyone who wants to learn an instrument, have fun and see results. More...

<< -- 2 -- Ron Bierman MUCH TO PRAISE
Oboist John Anderson has a full, warm tone and his interpretation of K314 competes with the best of modern-instrument recordings. The slow movement is suitably romantic, the faster outer movements playful and fleet
[listen -- CD 2 track 1, 1:02-2:30].
Julie Price too is successful in the bassoon concerto, K191
[listen -- CD 2 track 4, 1:08-2:24].
K495 is my favorite of Mozart's four horn concertos. Richard Berry plays with smooth assurance, but faces strong competition in the famous Dennis Brain recording. James Sommerville is another good alternative if you want all four. He displays considerable wit and brashness in his traversal with conductor Mario Bernardi (CBC Records).
Though minor Mozart the Sinfonia Concertante, K297b, adds variety and is a clever fit. It's a concerto for the combination of instruments (horn, oboe, clarinet and bassoon) that appear solo in the program's other works. The finale is a theme with variations and Mozart provides the interplay you might expect
[listen -- CD 1 track 6, 5:40-6:55].
The ECO and conductor Ralf Gothóni leave nothing to be desired in the way of sympathetic support. If you'd like to add a well-played, nicely-varied program of Mozart wind concertos to your collection, this is your chance. Recommended, though the sound engineering will be a distraction for some.

The Best-Selling Acoustic Guitar of All Time
Yamaha FS Series
Choice woods, the finest craftsmanship and a smaller folk style body make the FS a popular alternative to the larger FG. Precise, smooth response and a sweet, focused tone make this a great choice for recording or fingerpicking.
Designed with a full-sized body depth, the FS Series delivers rich low-end tone that contradicts it's size. It's short scale makes it an excellent choice for guitarists with small hands.
Yamaha FG Series
For over 40 years, millions of musicians have used the Yamaha FG as the perfect tool to express their music. FGs gained the respect due to their quality, dependability, playability and value.
Since it was introduced in the 1960’s, the Yamaha FG has been recognized as simply the best acoustic guitar in its league. The FG is a perfect example of Yamaha’s unique combination of traditional craftsmanship and modern guitar-building techniques. Everything focuses on the same goal: an outstanding playing experience, and the great tone that’s made FG the choice of some of the greatest players in history. Now, the greatest players of the future are choosing it too.
The main purpose of bracing on an acoustic guitar is to strengthen the top against the tension of the strings. By modifying the vibrations of the guitar’s top, the bracing also serves to create the guitar’s tonal signature. Yamaha’s guitars use a non-scalloped X-bracing design with each of the eight braces carefully positioned to tailor the guitar’s sound. The use of non-scalloped bracing ensures your guitar will retain its tone, response, and stability for a lifetime.
Dovetail Neck Joint
The joint between body and neck is essential to an acoustic guitar, not just for physical stability but also for sound. The efficient transfer of vibrations from neck to body is crucial in creating a full and balanced tone. All Yamaha acoustic guitars feature a hand-fitted dovetail neck joint. The precisely crafted joint uses no metal parts and gives the guitar the best neck-to-body contact for outstanding tone along with incredibly strength and stability.
Hand Sprayed Thin Finish
All Yamaha FG & FS guitars feature our signature ultra-thin finish. The perfect combination of advanced finish technology and artisan hand-spraying techniques ensures the rich, high-gloss finish on each guitar is around 0.25 millimeter thin. It provides the minimum restriction of vibrations of the wood, and a louder, fuller tone while remaining incredibly strong and resilient.

Well, I never could get that 5mm wrench to work but I finally found the allen wrench that came with the Yamaha and it fit perfectly! I pulled out my calipers and measured it and it is definitely NOT a 5mm like all the websites said. It's a 4mm. Now I have it adjusted and new Light (.012 to .053) strings on it and it plays like butter and sounds great!
The guitar came today, and was packaged nicely. The guitar box was in another bigger box. I eargerly upboxed everything to unveil what is truly a beautiful guitar. There were no dinks or dents and everything was shiny, and in perfect condition. The guitar was way out of tune out of the box, but I used Garage Band and an app on my phone in conjunction to tune it as best as I can. After I received a satisfactory tuning, I begun my initially test. Chords rung out with amazing clarity and warmth. I tested a few scales, and riffs and they all sounded fantastic. Again, I'm still a beginner when it comes to playing the guitar, but have been an avid fan of rock and music in general for eons and know when something sounds great. I played it for a few hours and couldn't even put it down till I realize that it was too late to be playing guitar since this guitar does resonate a very full, loud sound.
In all, if you are a beginner looking for a great first-time guitar or even experienced and want a guitar that sounds great and simultaneously has a great price, then look no further. A guitar is an investment and if you can, you might as well start with something good since it'll encourage you to play more and you won't outgrow this one nearly as quickly as the other "beginner" guitars.
**I will update this review in the coming month as I log more playing time.

I would always want to have the best of sounds especially when my line of work is at stake. I am a DJ who performs and plays music in clubs and different party gatherings and the quality of music that I produce can really affect the mood of the party. So I always want to make sure that I would be able to have the best quality sounds with my equipments.

Best Portable Speakers for DJ
The kinds of speakers that I connect with my amplifiers and turntables are very important because these are the things that bring out my music to the people. If my equipments are too strong and the speakers can not handle them; the sound would not be whole and would be grounded. That is something that I do would not want to deliver and provide for my services. People expect great music so I will do my best to provide great music.
Best Portable DJ Speakers
|Seismic Audio - Pair of 15" PA DJ Spe...|
It is a good thing that I stumbled upon the Seismic Audio – 15” speakers. The 350 watts on each speaker can means that a strong sound output is assured. These speakers can really take the beating while its sensitivity at 96 db can make sure that the sound quality would be really good. The watts and the sensitivity go together when it comes to measuring the quality of the speakers that people are using. It is not just about the wattage but also about the sensitivity.
The Seismic Audio Sub woofer has a 50 ounce magnet and 2.5” voice coil. This only shows that it is also strong enough to blast all those low tones even on max volume. The size of the magnet is only as good as its voice coils so with a sub woofer with a 50 ounce magnet and 2.5 voice coils would be enough to deliver those punchy low bass tones. People would surely feel the pump to their hearts.
These are the best portable DJ speakers that I have found in the market. These speakers come packed with enough juice to blow their competition down. These 15” monster speakers have 1.5” titanium tweeter driver, a frequency response of up to 45 to 20,000 Hz and 1400 watts peak power. Using these speakers would definitely allow a person to be able to play great quality music with crystal clear sound anywhere they are.
Playing music with the Seismic Seismic Audio DJ speakers is really great since people would be playing their music with 700 watts speakers at 96 db sensitivity. They have sub woofers with a 50 ounce magnet and 2.5” voice coils and 1.5” titanium tweeter drive that would help them deliver crisp, crunchy, and deep tones.
These Seismic Audio speakers also look great with a black carpeted covering. They may measure up 25” tall but they are not heavy at all for their size which makes them also perfect for transferring around different places.
With all the music shows that I have played music with as a DJ and have even been used by bands for their plays; these speakers have truly shown that people are going to get more than what they have paid for

It’s sometimes difficult to understand how a clarinet or saxophone mouthpiece can help or hinder a student’s progress. There are many resources that add unnecessary complexity and cause much frustration as the student tries mouthpiece after mouthpiece with seemingly no end.
As many great musicians have learned, it’s important to look for the simple things in the many small tasks that make up instrument performance. Using analogies can help .
For this discussion, consider a swimming pool diving board. A diving board and a mouthpiece both have a fulcrum that controls flexibility. On a diving board the fulcrum is the roller. The roller can be moved forward or backwards to control the flex of the board. The fulcrum on a mouthpiece facing can be adjusted forward or backwards, as well, to control the flexibility of the reed.
When selecting or recommending a mouthpiece, the relationship of the Tip Opening to the fulcrum position and reed strength is very important. The scenarios below are the effects of various fulcrum position, tip opening and reed strength relationships.
A. Fulcrum “Back” position – If the fulcrum is in the back position you will achieve more flexibility in the reed. Consider a mouthpiece with a more open tip opening so the reed has room to vibrate.
B. Fulcrum in the “Forward” position – If the fulcrum is in the forward position you will achieve less reed flexibility. Consider a mouthpiece with a more close tip opening. In the forward position and closer tip opening a stronger reed is recommended.
C. Fulcrum in the “Optimal” position – With the fulcrum in the optimal position and relative to the correct tip opening size the player will achieve maximum reed vibration and airflow through the mouthpiece.
So What Should We Tell Our Students?
As you consider how best to approach most young students, it’s best to take the middle ground. That means a medium tip opening AND a medium fulcrum position. This combination allows directors to recommend a little stiffer reed to improve sound quality and support for crossing the break on clarinet and support for the low register on saxophone.
Unfortunately, many mouthpiece suppliers ignore this fulcrum position and focus only on the tip opening. To overcome their fulcrum limitations, some have widened the tip opening too much. This will result in students over blowing as the need for reed strength
Embouchure fails quickly and fatigue sets in, and a search for another mouthpiece ensues.
Jewel Performance model mouthpieces have medium tip openings and medium fulcrum positions. This allows for suitable reed vibration and proper airflow through the mouthpiece. The results include a better overall use of air, a more consistent and lively tone and greater endurance. Also, the mouthpiece will be suitable for the student for a longer period of time because the proper fulcrum position can handle reeds of various strength.
In addition to facing measurements Jewel Performance series mouthpieces are created with a proprietary chamber design and hand adjusted facing for consistent measurements.
This is why Jewel Performance mouthpieces are the best choice both for beginning and advancing students. The proper fulcrum position provides for proper reed vibration at any strength and gives the player the best opportunity for a great sound.
Ideal for beginners, the Jewel Performance Clarinet and Saxophone mouthpieces are also excellent for advancing students. With its medium fulcrum point,
The JEWEL Performance Clarinet Mouthpiece
Recommended by many professional clarinet players and band directors, the Jewel Performance Clarinet series mouthpiece combines affordability with playing ease, flexibility, and rich resonant tones.
Each Performance mouthpiece is hand faced, play tested and adjusted for precise measurements and playing response.

What band actively made it their mission to create a nexus of independent media generated by women through which women, a historically underrepresented group in DIY and all things, could have a voice regarding anything they felt was important? Bikini Kill did. The band and their first record Revolution Girl Style Now have informed DIY culture in ways that most records and bands can’t say that they have, and now *insert prayer hand emoji,* there’s a reissue!
Revolution Girl Style Now was originally recorded at the ABC House in Olympia, Washington only a day after Bikini Kill played one of their inaugural shows in the same space. The album is undoubtedly noted as one of the records that spawned the Riot Girl movement, and though the band has made efforts in the past to compile different singles and EP’s into reissues, this marks the first reissue of this particular record (one of only two full lengths Bikini Kill recorded during their six-year stretch as a band).
The album will be made available to purchase on vinyl, CD, and in digital formats. On top of the aforementioned mediums, a limited run of replica cassettes will be available only through mail order. All copies of the record, on top of the original track listing, will feature three previously unreleased songs: “Ocean Song,” “Playground,” and “Just Once.” The first 500 vinyl pre orders come with a limited edition poster while the first 300 CD orders come with a button and sticker.
Check out the reissue’s trailer, which features footage from the band’s first show.

In the world of acoustic guitar performances, achieving the perfect balance of dynamics and clarity can be a formidable challenge, especially in live settings. This is where the unsung hero of the pedalboard comes into play: the compression pedal. Often overlooked in favor of more dramatic effects like reverb or delay, compression is vital for both the nuanced player and the dynamic strummer. In this comprehensive guide, we’ll explore the transformative role of compression in acoustic guitar playing, revealing how it can elevate your live performances and recordings to professional levels.
Understanding Compression: The Basics
Before diving into the specifics of acoustic guitars, let’s demystify what compression actually does. At its core, a compressor pedal reduces the dynamic range of your guitar’s signal. This means it narrows the gap between the loudest and quietest parts of your performance. When applied correctly, compression can add sustain, enhance clarity, and ensure that every nuance of your playing is heard, without the peaks and troughs that can make live acoustic guitar sound inconsistent.
Why Compression is Key for Acoustic Guitars
Acoustic guitars, by their nature, produce a wide dynamic range. The difference between gently fingerpicked passages and vigorous strumming can be vast. In a live setting, this dynamic range can be both a blessing and a curse. While it allows for expressive playing, it can also lead to issues where softer notes disappear while louder chords dominate, potentially leading to a less balanced and professional sound.
1. Evening Out Dynamics
The primary role of a compression pedal in acoustic guitar playing is to even out these dynamics. By compressing the signal, the pedal boosts quieter notes and attenuates louder ones, ensuring a more consistent volume. This doesn’t mean your playing will become monotonous; instead, it ensures that every note is heard clearly, regardless of your playing intensity.
2. Adding Punch and Presence
Beyond leveling dynamics, compression adds a certain punch and presence to your acoustic guitar sound. This is particularly useful in live settings, where your acoustic guitar needs to cut through the mix of other instruments or ambient noise. A well-compressed guitar signal can stand out more distinctly, ensuring your performance captures the audience’s attention.
3. Enhancing Sustain
Another benefit of using compression is the enhancement of sustain. Acoustic guitars naturally have a shorter sustain compared to electric guitars. Compression can extend the life of each note or chord, allowing them to ring out longer and with more body. This is especially valuable for solo acoustic performers or during instrumental sections of a song.
Setting Up Your Compression Pedal for Acoustic Guitar
The key to effectively using a compression pedal with an acoustic guitar is subtlety. The goal is to enhance, not overwhelm, the natural sound of your instrument. Here are some tips for setting up your compression pedal:
- Threshold: Start with a moderate threshold setting. This determines when the compression kicks in. You want it to engage during louder passages without squashing the life out of your softer playing.
- Ratio: A lower ratio (around 2:1 or 3:1) is often sufficient for acoustic guitars. This keeps the compression gentle and natural-sounding.
- Attack and Release: A medium to slow attack time will preserve the initial transients of your strumming or picking, maintaining the natural feel of your playing. The release time should be set so that the compression eases off smoothly, without any abrupt jumps in volume.
- Makeup Gain: After compression, your overall signal might be lower. Use the makeup gain to bring your volume back to the desired level, ensuring your playing cuts through the mix.
Which Compressor Pedals To Start With?
If you want to get started using compression to enhance your acoustic guitar sound, here are a couple pedals worth considering:
Specifically designed for acoustic musicians, this pedal is part of the LR Baggs Align Series, which aims to maintain the purity of the acoustic sound. It offers a simple, user-friendly interface with controls for compression, gain, and volume, making it a great choice for those looking to preserve the natural tone of their acoustic guitar.
Known for its advanced technology, the Boss CP-1X provides a new level of performance for guitarists. It uses Boss’s Multi-Dimensional Processing (MDP) to intelligently adapt to your playing, providing the right amount of compression without sacrificing the musicality of your acoustic guitar.
Live Performance Tips
When using a compression pedal in live performances, consider the following:
- Sound Check: Always soundcheck with your compression pedal engaged. This ensures you set your levels correctly with the pedal’s effect in mind.
- Listen to the Room: The acoustics of the venue can greatly affect how your compressed guitar sounds. Be prepared to tweak your settings to suit the space.
- Monitor Your Playing: With compression, it’s easier to maintain a consistent volume. However, be mindful of your playing dynamics to avoid a too-flat performance.
Recording with Compression
While this guide focuses on live settings, it’s worth noting that compression is equally important in recording. When recording acoustic guitar, compression can help ensure that your takes are consistent and mix-ready. Just like in live settings, aim for subtle compression to maintain the natural characteristics of your acoustic guitar.
In the vast landscape of guitar effects, compression stands out as a foundational tool for acoustic guitarists, particularly in live settings. Its ability to even out dynamics, add punch, and enhance sustain makes it indispensable for both the performing artist and the studio musician. By understanding and implementing the principles of compression, you can ensure that your acoustic guitar performances are always dynamic, clear, and professional. Remember, the best compression settings are those that enhance your


This is a really good instrument for its price - looks great, has that massive baritone sound with the specific Danelectro flavor and the feeling of playing is very comfortable as well, especially considering the differences in scale length in comparison with a "regular" guitar. I am a little bit disappointed in the build quality of the instrument, but that is sometimes to be expected in this price range. In the first days of playing I had to tighten up the input jack, and also the pickup switch made too much noise - nothing a little bit of soldering can't fix though, and it may vary from instrument to instrument.
Otherwise I'm very happy with Danelectro 56 Vintage Baritone guitar - The sound is massive, it sounds great on a clean tube amp, as well as overdriven and fuzzed. It also works great for ambient soundscape creation. I believe it could also be a good option to playing in duo or trio setup without a bass guitar - using octaver or signal splitter for example, to send a clean low octave to a bass amp, while sending the other signal to guitar amp - but I haven't had the time to check this out yet.
If You're looking for a good sounding and playable baritone instrument, while on a budget, or just wanting to experiment with baritone sounds - this is a very good symbiosis of quality, coolness and price.

This game, originating in 18th century Europe, is credited to Mozart. This musical game of 'chance' is played when dice are used to create music from pre-composed musical measures. You simply roll the dice and the musical measure with the coordinating number is used to compose a piece of music. This composition 'game' can be played individually or in teams of 2 or more.
Check out additional FREE info on this lesson by looking at my blog post!
Included in this NO-PREP, print and go, package is:
- 1 class hand out
- 2 dice templates (numbers 1-6 and 7-12)
- 2 unique student composition worksheets (that walks your students through the entire musical dice game and musical composition)
- 1 extra sheet of staff paper
This is an easy and really engaging lesson for upper elementary and beyond. Your options are limitless with this! Have students create their music using 1 or both dice, copy the compositions onto the staff paper, and bring it to an instrument to play. This could, potentially, be a multi-lesson project.

|What is The Guitar String Tone Curve Doing To Your Sound?||
In this article, we are going to take a look at the life cycle of a guitar string. As a guitarist or bassist, you know as soon as a set of strings are installed on your instrument, it sounds totally different. There is a world of difference in tone with the new strings compared to the old strings. This difference in sound is especially heard in the wound strings. Again, the sound is much brighter and alive. Interestingly, the tone immediately starts to change as soon as the strings are played over time. The change is much more noticeable for uncoated wound strings. There is a curve in Figure 1 that demonstrates how the tone changes over time for a wound string. The cleanest and brightest tone occurs at the steepest point of the curve. The flattest sound occurs at the lowest point on the curve.
In Figure 2, the curve has been divided into three zones. These zones represent significant milestones in a string’s life cycle.
In Tone Zone 1, you have a tone that is typical when the strings are brand new out of the package and freshly installed on the guitar. Some folks refer to this as the “Twang” sound that is characteristic of newer strings. Player who love that ultra clean bluesy howl, or country twang try to keep their strings in this zone. Bassist who enjoy that clean sounding string snap (similar to Marcus Miller) also gravitate in this tone zone. As soon as the string starts to transition into Tone Zone 2, they change strings. Tone Zone 1 has the least amount of time during a normal string’s life cycle. The decay of brightness in quick and can sometimes only last after a few hours of playing. If you want to keep your sound in this zone, then you will be changing strings more frequently.
In Tone Zone 2, there is a change in brightness that occurs, but its decay is less dramatic than in Tone Zone 1. In fact Tone Zone 2 lasts the longest as the strings are still clean sounding, and have good sustain. For guitarist who desire clean string tone with having any “twang” element in it, this is the zone they enjoy. Tone Zone 2 also provides more desired transparency for special effects pedals and distortion. Distorted power chords sound less hollow, and more full in this zone.
Finally, in Tone Zone 3 there is the least amount of brightness and clarity occurring. The string has the least amount of sustain in this zone. The strings tend to be more muted and softer in their ringing. This is a preferred sound for guitarist after that warm soft jazz tone. Guitarist using heavy gauge flatwound strings (over 0.013” diameter) will play strings into this part of the lifecycle. Since they typically do not bend the strings to extremes, the strings will work reliably well in this zone. In some cases, the strings can go for years without needing changed. In this zone, the reliability becomes questionable for lighter gauge strings as breakage becomes more likely.
As you can see from our string tone curves, the sound of a guitar or bass is always changing. String companies are continuously trying to lengthen the life cycle of a string. In other words, they are trying new ways to increase the longevity of each cycle. Now that you know about the three zones, which one are you playing in? For most players, they find themselves in Tone Zone 1, 2, or 3. Still, there are other players who are the Twilight Zone!
