    Warren Haynes - Million Voices Whisper

    It is just too bad that we don't get so many chances seeing those people playing live over here in Europe. Rest assured that I don't envy you enjoying it.

    Warren Haynes - Million Voices Whisper

    Thank you so much for bringing this to our attention. Warren Haynes is one of my all-time heroes when it comes to guitar playing. I was fortunate to have the chance to see him playing live at a concert in Cologne, Germany, back in 1991, along with ABB, when Dickey was still around. It was just...

    Hi from Germany

    Hi there, Living close to Cologne or Bonn certainly isn't the worst place to be situated. Perhaps we might meet up someday, your time and my time allowing.

    Jean, no offence intended, but you didn't get the message from the guy showing you the chord. That's the nuclear guitar chord or the equivalent to the universe Big Bang in terms of guitar playing. This is where all other guitar chords emanated from. Just telling you this as you don't seem to be...

    Borrowed from frets.com, along with the comment: "This one is quite a study in confusion. Its owner complained about difficulty in tuning, which is no surprise, considering that five are wound backwards, and four of them go to the wrong posts. Yes, it really did come into the shop strung like...

    You're not old, I guess. But you are getting it wrong. German is my first language, being born and grown up in Germany. English is my second language, being taught English at school, and by a native speaker, and Irishman, and fooling around with English or better yet Irish speaking people since...

    Yes. But it's always me speaking into it. And no AI involved, as I am real.

    Meaning to contribute to it, but not by posting a picture or a gif this time, but rather a recount of a personal experience this time. I've been using speech recognition software since 2004, both in my job in German to get it done and in English to communicate with people worldwide in forums...

    Hi from Germany

    I have indeed. And I have also already considered swapping the Alnico Classic Pro for Epiphone ProBuckers, as I have already read a whole lot of discussing this over on the Epiphone talk forum, and if I recall correctly, it was Jean in particular recommending them. However, since the overall...

    Hi from Germany

    Being the Les Paul newbie that I am, I have nothing to relate to the terminology you are using. If you could perhaps provide a few sound samples, that would be much appreciated. However, my idea was to get an output signal from the neck pickup as clean as possible by itself, almost like an...

    What would you like to see added on GT?

    It's just a matter of the options of the form software by means of an administrator setting permissions for user groups. Just a matter of a few clicks for an administrator, knowing this from running my own forum. You may argue about the ownership of the forum's content, but in my opinion, a...

    The best practice stool

    I have had about the same here, in 2018. Took me three years to get over it. Below is a picture of her.

    What would you like to see added on GT?

    Mine does, and then a few others I visit.

    What would you like to see added on GT?

    There are two things that I would like to see added to this forum. (1) The ability to edit my messages not only within a limited span of time, such as 24 hours, but longer, perhaps for always. (2) The ability to delete my own messages at any time.

    Hi from Germany

    It feels like you can read my mind, but if you could also read my partner's mind, you probably wouldn't make such suggestions. :-) In fact, I have already looked at various options replacing them, and I think that now is the time to start a new thread about it, as it is no longer an...

    The best practice stool

    Lovely Eloise, I have had a few of the tortoise shell breed, too, all of them being rescued. Well below I'll attach a picture of another rescue candidate enjoying my practice amp in the kitchen in August 2021. His name is Fritzi, although we had named him or her Lizzie at first, as we had...

    Hi from Germany

    Thanks, I have already looked into it, but question being what particular pickups to replace them with. Getting genuine Gibsons would probably be overkill, no matter how tempting the overall idea would be. Maybe I should make a few recordings and post them for you to listen to and tell me what...

    Hi from Germany

    Thanks, I guess I figured it out by now. According to the Epiphone website, the modern collection is a subcategory to IBG, and next to IBG there is also the IBGC category, coming at higher pricing. The way the overall nomenclature is being used in different places actually is a little confusing...

    Hi from Germany

    Thanks. I guess we both have the same model except for the finish, and as I also have coil splitting and phase switching I take it that we both have the modern wiring rather than the 50's. I have been through all kinds of articles, videos and forum messages related to setting up pickups as well...
