Re: New to this ... so bear with me

Time is a precious thing. If you wanna play you will play and if not, well the guitar will make a nice ornament. A new guitar may excite you enough to continue practicing - but may not either. Sometimes practicing with a friend helps, rather than by yourself. Whatever works for you basically. Try a ...

Re: New to this ... so bear with me

Hi and welcome, headphones is one thing i dont own..maybe I should get some... Incidentally, you probably know already - there can be quite a difference between choosing headphones to match a phone or similar - as opposed to reasonably powerful hi-fi equipment and there will be people on here quali...

Re: New to this ... so bear with me

Yeah, Don't Burnley have a football club that's almost as good as Oldham Athletic? How do I find the Techie People on here that know how to spot a bargain piece of equipment or advise on repairs and such like? Den.

Re: New to this ... so bear with me

Sounds like you are in Marsden perhaps - I walk my dog there every now and again, weather permitting. What got you onto Audio-Talk then? Den. You're not called 'Den Shaw' by any chance ? :D ps. I was born in Lancashire but they moved it to Cheshire later ( Croft, near Warrington ) . Close my friend...

Re: New to this ... so bear with me

Hi, Oh yes, definitely get some headphones if you want the ultimate personal listening experience. If you have a detached residence and the nearest neighbour is 100 metres/yards away you can let rip with your speakers and have a great experience - similar to headphones. Hundreds of headphones to cho...

New to this ... so bear with me

Just saying Hi for the first time basically. Yes, I love Blues Music and yes I love hi-fi reproduction - but it has to be affordable for old geezers such as me. Currently I am playing with Fostex T50RP MK3 Headphones and would like to get the best from them - so if you have any affordable tips pleas...
