<t>Hey Never... that video is starting to sound more like my version... hehe... but I love the original non the less.<br/> <br/> It's a good thing I'm creative! Every time I play The Boxer' on my guitar I actually hear the original version (in my minds ears lol) - I'm blinded by delight - until I wa...

<t>Thank you all.... :cheer: <br/> <br/> With practice my timing is more consistent, I do the runs better and most important of all I get the dynamics in instead of playing at close to the same level all the time. That may be the most important part of playing this piece.<br/> <br/> Good luck with t...

Ha, ha now that's funny!

Can't post a video yet as I'm still not ready for any recording on my PC.

I just love the sound of that sound and wondered if anyone had figured out the best way to get the fullness of the guitar on that LP. No biggy... thanks all.

<t>Ok The Boxer by Simon and Garfunkle... a classic. <br/> <br/> It 'seems' to have a typical travis picking attack on the guitar strings but when I play it... hmmm, it 'kinda' sounds right but also sounds like I'm missing something.<br/> <br/> I suspect that both Garfunkel and Simon are playing the...

Great post Suzanne... thanks for your insights.

Mostly though because of my last name and ( I'm from Cincinnati and everyone here knows who the Big O is) when I log into forums though that name is usually spoken for, so I just added the first initial of my fir...

<t>Lot's of great responses and thanks to everyone. I guess what I was really getting at, now that I think about it is this.<br/> <br/> My goal in music is ultimately writing songs. Playing is great but I really love to write.<br/> <br/> I can have simple song demos made from my songs for a couple h...

<t>I know we are just talking arbitrary numbers here, but the quality of guitars under $1000 has sky rocketed in the past decade.<br/> <br/> If you were talking Breedlove, you'd have to be talking about their Atlas series. I doubt they sell a heck of a lot of their upper line in terms of quantity. I...

<t>I downloaded the Audacity program and can use my headphone mic with no problems. Now how do I interface my guitar through the usb port?<br/> <br/> Do I have to purchase an auxiliary plug-in device to go from my guitar jack through the usb or do I purchase a special card that I plug my guitar into...
