Here's a lovely article about Randy Rhoads from our friends at @GuitarWorld:

One thing I didn't know is Randy triple-tracked his solos. WTF? Who can play that consistently? Well, surely Fripp, and Randy too I reckon.

“He triple-tracked his solos. Ozzy told him, ‘Nobody can do that!’ Well, he could. That was just his genius”: Randy Rhoads’ sister Kathy is keeping his legacy alive with a new pedal and old memories

Kathy Rhoads recalls the young guitarist’s diary entry about the Prince of Darkness, his thoughts on the Eddie Van Halen comparisons, and touches on moments so painful she still can’t discuss them

Check out an Applevis forum post and an associated podcast that I put together about a cool guitar gadget called Tonewood Amp. If you are an acoustic guitar player,, you may really love it! :)

Home recording tip time!

This is something I recommend for #guitar players who like to put bass on tracks they record. It's a felt pick, sold as an autoharp pick.

I use it because I don't like hearing a pick attack in my basslines and my picking hand's fingers have longer nails on them, so the felt pick is a good way to emulate the sound of a bass played with fingers.

Soldering together a neat experiment for a keyboard instrument. Think as if a Guitar and a Piano had a child. : }

Row Tuning: (B, E, A, D, G)

Help. I am searching for a library allowing to draw chords graphs like those. I'd like it to work similarly to Mermaid or PlantUML, a tool that creates beautiful diagrams from text files. Preferably something that works through command line, accept a text file as input and deliver a PDF or image file.

Boost creates random chords progressions.

It's not long until the 1st of June, so why not pick up the guitar and learn some catchy tunes for the summer? I've just published version 7.0 of Fretboard, which brings more accurate chord name prediction, note names on hover for the neck top toggles, and a couple of fixes for various small issues encountered since last release. It should be on Flathub very soon!

Ковыряю тут.

Если прокатит, то будет песенка в очень низком строе (ниже, чем Drop D тут).

Даже решил попробовать гибридное звукоизвлечение одновременно медиатором и пальцами по такому поводу.

Кто узнал - тот молодец. Но пока ничего не обещаю - нужно чтобы немало факторов сложилось.

Одним из больших откровений в записи звука гитары для меня в своё время стало осознание того факта, что если гитара вне микса звучит как понос - это нормально.

Left-handed guitarists, rejoice! The next version of Fretboard brings support for switching between right-handed and left-handed chord diagrams. Thanks to Terrestrian on GitHub for suggesting this!
