The P90 pickups are essentially the same as the ones that you are wanting to put into it. The wide range pickups are a fender version of a large single coil pickup. They are similar to a humbucker but are actually a single coil pickup just wound differently. It is not worth the money to buy the first guitar and totally change it to be similar to the second guitar. By the time you are done it will cost as much as the second guitar anyway so save your money and buy it.

The Best Guitars For Beginners

When you go looking for the best guitars for beginners, take a guitar player with you. Electric guitars could have warped necks or rattling hardware and the beginner guitarist will not have a clue that anything is significantly out of place. Anything can happen to an individual guitar to make it a lemon but it is possible to follow some general guidelines about which brand and model is worth looking at.

You want to play electric guitar and the question of what are the best guitars for beginners arises in your brain. To put it broadly, a decent electric guitar for a beginner is not hard to come by, you just need to know how to look.

There are so many sources of new and second hand guitars, online and offline, through retail outlets and through classified ads, you just need to take a little care in choosing your first guitar. Here are some suggestions that you could carry with you as you go out into the world looking for a starter guitar.

The Squier Affinity Tele. The Telecaster is loved by many guitarists, Albert Lee, Keith Richards and Steve Cropper among them. It grabs the attention with its retro rock n roll looks, backed up by solid construction. The body of the Affinity series is made from alder and the fretboard is maple. This is a good choice for the learner guitar player who wants to look as well as feel the part. You will probably notice some hum but not enough to complain about. The sound you get from this guitar definitely matches the looks, so if you see one, grab it.

The Squier Fat Strat is a moderately priced guitar let down by uneven quality of parts and workmanship. The flashy looks belie the poor quality of construction. Even so, it should serve the beginner guitar player quite well until you are more certain of your musical direction.

The Epiphone Les Paul Special II. The Les Paul guitar is part of rock and roll history. This is a beginner's guitar you can pick up new for not too many dollars. It has a fretboard made of rosewood and a body of alder and maple. The looks of this guitar will inspire you to get you chops quickly so you can deserve to keep playing it.

The Epiphone G-310 SG is a copy of the Gibson SG which is a fairly high-range guitar. The electronics and hardware are where the company saves money but in spite of that, the general opinion amongst guitarists who have given it a try is that it is an excellent beginners model. The sound is fine for absolutely any electric guitar music and the light weight will make you want to play all day.

Now for a low priced acoustic guitar for the beginner. The Yamaha No. 120 Nippon Gakki is a nylon string guitar that you can acclimatize your fingers on, but you just might want to keep it when you move onto an electric. This is another guitar that you should grab if the price is right.

Let be honest here, an SVT classic is pretty much what every bassist needs, but if you're looking for something affordable the GK backline heads are decent. A GK 700RB-II would be ideal though. As far as cabs go you could probably find a decent 4x10 for cheap somewhere. I've always been a fan of Ampeg, Hartke, and SWR cabs.

Like someone else said, you can probably find what you need on craigslist.

Good Advise for Buying Your First Bass Guitar

When you play the bass guitar professionally for many years, you learn some pretty amazing things that no one ever knew enough to tell you about at the time when you first needed to know them.  It's unfortunate but, most of us learn by making mistakes and then learning to correct them as we continue on through life.  Here are a few ideas you might want to consider before you purchase your first bass guitar and amplification system that (had I known about them) would have saved me a lot of time and money and enabled me to sound more like a professional bass player a lot sooner that I did.

First, you will want to purchase a bass guitar with two pickups on it.  You will get a much better variety of tone from two pickups.  One pickup will be positioned close to the bridge (where the strings attach on the body of the guitar) and the other will be positioned closer to the middle of the body or where the neck connects to the body of the bass guitar.  The bridge pickup delivers a tone that sounds a bit harsher with a greater treble sound to it and the middle or neck pickup will deliver a more mellow sound.  So, you can see that it is important to have both pickups for a variety of tone.  As far as price is concerned, purchase whatever you can afford but, understand that the more expensive bass guitars will have better sounding pickups and better hardware on them and they will also be easier to sell if you decide you don't like playing the bass.  In addition to sounding a little better, the more expensive basses are also a little easier to play and will stay in tune longer.  Don't forget you will also need to budget for an amplification system so you will be able to hear yourself playing while you practice.

If you want the ultimate bottom end sound from your bass, you will want to purchase a 5-string rather that the standard 4-string bass.  The bottom end delivered from a 5-string sounds so much more awesome especially when you drop tune the 5th string (normally a B note) to a low A.  It's also easier to sell a used 5-string bass than a 4-string.  Why? Because experienced players who already play a 4-string are more likely to consider a used 5-string but, when trading up from a 4-string to a better 4-string you're not looking at used bass guitars.  You want a new one in that case.

Since the bass amplifier, speakers and effects processors are the more expensive part of playing the bass, let me suggest that you may not want buy a bass amplifier right away.  Why? You don't need one yet.  You're still learning to play.  Instead, buy a good pair of studio quality headphones (20 Hz to 20 kHz response) and instead of a bass amplifier, purchase a really good bass multieffects processor.  If you do that, you can play your bass through the bass effects processor and listen to it with some great sounding headphones and with awesome sounding bass effects too.  You will also not be disturbing anyone in the house or your neighbors (if you live in an apartment) while you are learning to play.  That also translates into longer more quality practice time.

If you should decide you don't like playing the bass, you can very easily sell the headphones and the bass effects processor and get most of your money back.  If you have purchased one of the better base guitars (not the best but certainly not the worst) you will easily be able to sell that also.  Most beginning bass players pay good money for a cheap bass amplifier that does not sound very good and nobody who plays the bass wants a cheap used bass amplifier.  That, in my opinion, is just throwing your money away on something you will only use for a little while anyway as you learn how to play.  A bass effects processor sounds better than any bass amplifier (even the expensive ones) and you will continue to use it even after you are playing well and decide to form or join a band.

The amplifier, speakers, and bass effects processor are way more important than the bass itself in terms of sound quality.  So, when you get ready to play with a band, you will want to invest in a quality amplification system at that time.  Never play a bass through a guitar amplifier (you can actually damage the amp or the speakers).  You will eventually want to purchase a bass amplifier that has an AUX or SUB output so that you can configure a powered subwoofer with your bass amplifier.  Why is that important? It's important because most bass amplifiers contain woofers (a type of full range speaker) which typically provides a low frequency response down to around 50 Hz (cycles per second).  The low E-string on a 4-string bass vibrates at approximately 41.2 Hz.  Therefore, most bass amplifiers will sound a little muddy in the low range when you're playing that E-string.  That can also make it difficult to tell whether or not your E-string is in tune.  A good subwoofer should provide a frequency response as low as to 20 or 25 Hz (some as low as 15 Hz) which will more than adequately provide for a 5-string bass that is drop tuned to a low A (27.5 Hz).

When you are ready to play with a band, you will then need at least a 150 watt (or higher) bass amplifier.  It just takes more wattage to drive those low tones and to be able to compete adequately (in terms of volume) with a 100 watt guitar amplifier.  Before you start playing live for an audience, you will want to add a good low end subwoofer to your amplifier.  Make sure that whatever amplifier you purchase, has an AUX or SUB output port to allow you to connect a powered subwoofer to your amplifier.  With that subwoofer, you will no longer just hear the bass; you will feel the bass as well.

So, with a relatively inexpensive bass guitar (still your starter guitar), and a really good bass effects processor (your original practice amp) and a 150 watt (or higher wattage) amplifier and a powered subwoofer, you are going to sound much more professional than your average bass player.  Many of them will come up to you on a gig and ask about your bass sound and what kind of amplifier you are using.  I know.  It happens to me all the time.  Good luck to you!  You're going to love playing the bass, it's one of the worlds highest paying part-time jobs and one of the highest paying full time professions in the world, if you become really good at it.  Thanks for reading; your comments are always welcome!

I assume the reason you're asking for advice ist that you're not quite happy with your sound. Start with the tone knobs on 12 o'clock and work from there. For a modern metal sound try (low/mid/high) 3/9/2 o'clock. Then work with the tone knob of the guitar to get it just right. Depending on how much volume and distortion you are using these (and any) settings will sound different. Since you have a quite small amp you can crank it up a bit and it will sing nicely without damaging your ears. (This is a good thing.) With your amp cranked you can use the volume knob to roll off top end. More disortion doesn't necessarily mean a heavier sound. Finally, don't be afraid to play around with your gear, trust your ears! Good luck!

Buying A Fender Stratocaster On eBay?

If you are looking for a Fender Stratocaster, eBay is probably worth a browse. Many famous guitar players favored the Strat, so why not try to get this distinguished instrument for a bargain basement price?

The name Fender Stratocaster is a little bit misleading because these two words can mean many things to many guitar players. The first question you need to answer when considering buying a Fender Stratocaster on eBay is which model Strat do you need? Basically a Stratocaster has been adopted by players in the genres of rock and roll, blues, soul, funk and pop. There has even been the odd jazz guitarist to take up the Strat. If you are a new guitar player wanting to learn heavy metal, then the Strat is probably not for you.

The older Stratocasters were manufactured with three single-coil pickups. Some later models have a humbucker at the bridge which will give you the option of departing from that classic Strat sound, but this option is not popular amongst guitar players.

You should think about whether you need to use the whammy bar in your guitar playing. The Fender Stratocaster is not a guitar with a good reputation in the whammy department, in spite of one of the early Strat players, Hank Marvin, using the whammy almost constantly.

When you are looking on eBay for a Fender Stratocaster you need to have on hand some details on the features of the Strat models available. You can get this info from Fender's website, Wikipedia and guitar forums.

eBay has become a great place for shonky guitar sellers to peddle fake  brand name merchandise. The Fender Stratocaster is no exception to this trend. The origin of many fake Strats is Asia. Sometimes the country of origin of the guitar is hidden by the vendor appearing to be selling from the USA.

eBay has a feedback system that allows you to get an idea of how well the vendor has pleased his previous customers. If a seller you are interested in has nothing to hide, his feedback will be there for you to see. So be careful if you are thinking of dealing with a guitar vendor with no feedback or who has chosen to keep it hidden.

One reason for alarm bells to  go off in your head when you are looking for a Fender Stratocaster on eBay is a ridiculously low price. If someone is selling a Fender Strat for one hundred dollars, look out!
