    Help selecting headphones for practicing

    Thanks for your help. The reason I was thinking of the K702s was because I didn't think they would need an amp. If they don't get any louder than the 6xx, then better to go with the 6xx I think. The Sennheiser 6xx are only $210 at drop, and I'm having a hard time justifying getting any other...

    Help selecting headphones for practicing

    That's what I was looking at - the Sennheiser 6XX Massdrop. At $210 with the coupon, they seem like an incredible value, but it seems that an amp is mandatory. I was also looking at those AKG 702s, and have seen several other people on various message boards speak favorable of them. Why do you...

    Help selecting headphones for practicing

    Sennheiser HD 650 are 300 Ohm. The tech support team at sennheiser said this was too high for guitar amps/smartphones/video games and I should look for something with a lower Ohm

    Help selecting headphones for practicing

    Hi all, I was going to pick up a pair of Sennheiser HD 650 Headphones, seen here: https://en-us.sennheiser.com/high-quality-headphones-around-ear-audio-surround-hd-650 For plugging into my guitar amp, and practicing without annoying the neighbors. I would also like to use the headphones to...

    Guitar playing chair?

    OP here, i ended up going with a k&m footrest. Arrives tomorrow. German made, got good reviews. I find propping up my leg helps align my spine, which stops the uppee back pain from hunching

    Guitar playing chair?

    Maybe a simple footstool is all I really need, plus a plain old folding chair, to put my back into a more erect position?

    Guitar playing chair?

    Years of playing on a folding chair with poor posture is starting to give me back aches. Anybody use one of those chairs by On Stage or something similar that is designed for musician use, and what did you think of it?

    What to do with my acoustic amp?

    I bought a very nice AER Compact 60/3 acoustic amp for use with my PRS Piezo equipped guitar. I later sold that guitar. I do not play acoustic, and don't see myself having another piezo equipped electric guitar for the foreseeable future. Do I have any use for this acoustic amp, or should I...

    Are you guys fretting out on the Silver Sky?

    How about legato on those small frets? How is that in comparison to your typical medium jumbo frets?

    Are you guys fretting out on the Silver Sky?

    To make a long story short I was thinking about ordering a G&L guitar with a 7.5" radius and vintage (small) frets. The only thing comparable that I have played is a PRS silver sky, which I got about 2 minutes to have fun with at my dealer. I liked it, but didn't get enough time to really...

    Why are PRS owners so afraid of getting a little scratch on it?

    If I want to buy something to look at, I'll hang a piece of art on the wall. If I want to buy an investment, I'll buy stocks. If I buy a $5000 guitar, I want to play it. Inevitably, I will get dings, scratches and probably drop it once in a while. Such is part of playing guitars. People who...

    How can I get a hollowbody with a pattern thin neck?

    PTC told me there don't plan on doing neck recarves ever again. Bummer. Private stock prices are really high. Bummer.

    How can I get a hollowbody with a pattern thin neck?

    Do we think this is realistic? Or is private stock my only real option here?
