I own a couple of guitars with them. I think they are common amongst any guitars with a floating tremelo system. Both guitars I own that have locking nuts do have the flloyd rose floating tremelo.

Because you can use the tremelo to such extremes, without the locking nut the tuning would suffer immensly. I can slacken the strings completely and it comes back to perfect tune.

I have found the system ver good though does add a bit of time restringing, especially when you first get used to it!

- never played with it myself though. Digitech is a good trusted brand so I would expect it to perform well. Especially for the cost!

Are you saying that you struggle to tap your foot to the beat when there is no backing?

Look forward to seeing the photos - how long will it take you to get there?

I think you can certainly get some good deals doing it this way but you have to know what you are doing or be lucky!

If the only cheap component is the speaker then great but most likely there are other substandard components in as well that might not be so easy to identify and change.

I have never really owned such a product so I do not know for sure!

I think you will always hear similar licks but if they are identical then i can see why it would remove some of the musical magic!

Life without fast internet? I could not imagine it! I remember the days when we had to use only dial up. A 5 mb file would take a minimum of 15 minutes. Now  it is under 5 seconds and this will only get faster!

I think I would be lost without my delay pedal for lead playing/solos. When I first got into lead playing I got this delay pedal and it opened up my whole style.

So yes, in some instances it can really open up your creativity and provide much inspiration and motivation for your guitar playing!

Yes I have version 5 as well.  I use it only when I am trying to work out a faster passage to get the timing right. It is really useful for this.

Actually this does look like a really good site. It is very similar to Guitar Pro in how it functions though all from your browser!

Love it!

Thanks for this - I guess it is to the manuall for me to find out how to get these things loaded to give them a go!

Cheers

Apart from the issue I have with getting tone at lower volumes I am happy with what I have.

Eventually I would like to own a Gibson Les Paul at some point though it is not top of the list of priorities.

I would also like a 12 string guitar a classical guitar and a slightly better bass guitar.

I agree. Tab only tells part of the story. Often playing the right notes but the incorrect rhythm will make it sound like you are playing the wrong notes.

I don't get on well with reading music notation with playing guitar but it sure is helpful that it is there for timing purposes.

Often this is an advantage with purchased tab books - they have the tab and the music notation to give you a clearer picture.

Also Guitar Pro is another thing I use a lot. This does the same as tab books, showing both musical notation and tab but also has the benefit of the option of playing a midi file to the tab. This can be slowed down to really nail those faster parts. It also is a good indication of how accurate the tab is in the first place before investing a lot of time in learning a piece to find that it is wrong!
