Re:Anyone interested in making their own guitars
<t>Andy, the kits aren't cheap to be sure. I have about $650 into the first one but it's soild wood...no laminates. It's taken a year to get the action to where I want it but it plays and sounds beter (IMO) than the ones costing a lot more in the store....and I learned to tweak it myself. With good ...

Re:Anyone interested in making their own guitars
<t>Anyone thinking about building a guitar should take the plunge and actually do it. It is indeed a great way to learn about guitars and you'll likley to be motivated to play even more than you do now. I'm on my second build right now and this one is going quite a bit quicker. <br/> <br/> I'm sure ...

Re:New from St. Paul, Pleased to be here.
<t>welcome.....from St. Cloud. Been a Target member since August. This is a great site. I admittedly spend more time on the lessons than the forum but there's a lot of help to be had here. Besides what better time to learn than winter in Minnesota! And...if you were a viking fan now you've got no di...

Double drop D tuning
<t>Hello, does anyone have a list of all the lessons on the site with double drop d tuning? I really like the tuning and have left one of my guitars tuned this way. I've been working on Ohio, the Loner and Down by the River but would like some more. Just thought I'd ask before I methodically open ev...

Re:hello
<t>I can't argue about the skeets but it's the small ones that come in waves that you have to look out for! Firehose yep perfect.. The built turned out way better than I hoped it might. Learned a ton about guitars in the process and will do another when I have a chance. Now if I invest the same time...

hello
<t>Scott from Minnesota. Although I've sorta..kinda played around with a guitar for a while I decided maybe if I spent the time to make one I'd be inspired to actually learn how to play. Built the one in the photo last winter when it was to cold outside to do much else then surfed around the net for...

Re:How Do I overcome Musical ADD
<t>thanks to all for the responses. There's certainly some good advise but somehow I feel better knowing there's others with this afliction, I thought it was just me. Shoot there's even a name for it, I'm "a bits and pieces" guy! Even though that's apprently ok, I'm going to attempt to overcome it. ...

How Do I overcome Musical ADD
<t>I found Neil's site about a week ago and I'm very impressed. Living in a northern climate, summer isn't when I have the most practice time nevertheless I'm planning to sign up for the target program and give it a shot. What concerns me is Neil has picked too many songs I like for lessons (tough p...
