Now Back In Stock The Fender Acoustasonic 150 Combo Amp

Fender Acoustasonic 150 Combo Amp

The Acoustasonic 150 packs full acoustic resonance and crystal clarity into a lightweight (only 22.5 lbs.) amp with a new ultra-efficient 150-watt (2×75) stereo power amp, dual 8 inch foam-surround low-frequency drivers and high-frequency tweeter.

For acoustic players who double on electric guitar, the Voicing control also has Blackface, tweed and British amp settings, which makes a second amp just for electric guitar unnecessary.

Other features include instrument and microphone channels with independent EQ and effects controls; new feedback elimination control with on/off switch for each channel; patented String Dynamics™ control that tames harsh treble notes; effects including reverb, delay, chorus, Vibratone, and more; XLR line out with level control and ground lift; stereo effects loop; USB connector for digital recording output (and possible future firmware updates); strong five-ply plywood construction and optional two-button effects select footswitch.

Christmas is coming! Choosing the perfect guitar can set a future musician up for success! Choosing Your First Guitar

Choosing Your First Guitar

You’ve decided to buy your first guitar, or perhaps you are buying one for someone else, and you have no clue where to begin.  With the right information you can get an instrument that will make learning the most enjoyable experience possible.

AFFORDABILITY VS. PLAYABILITY

Price is often a major issue when looking for a first guitar.  What if you don’t stick with it? Will the guitar turn into a dust collector?  Due to these worries many people look for either used guitars or the most inexpensive new guitar possible.  Great deals can often be found on used guitars and most shops carry guitars that are very easy on the wallet.  Unfortunately the low cost of many of these options may be the only positive, you may in fact be making things much more difficult for the future guitar player.  Let us explain:

Used Guitars – You can find a great deal on a used guitar if you’re lucky and know what to look for. The catch is exactly that, you have to know what you are looking at.  Small issues with the neck, or action (Action is the distance of the strings from the frets beneath them) on a guitar can make it very difficult to play, cause the guitar to play out of tune, cost money to repair or even make the guitar completely unplayable.  Since many of the issues are hard to see to the untrained eye, it is hard to teach the inexperienced what to look for.  If you know a trustworthy guitar player, more experienced than yourself,  it would be a good idea to have them check out any used instrument you consider purchasing.  It is strongly recommended against buying a guitar with no strings, or missing parts,  since some problems cannot be seen unless the guitar is set up to play.

Budget  Guitars – Various inexpensive guitars can be purchased at your local store and even from the occasional infomercial on television.  Many of these guitars are built to look very much like a guitar, but are constructed with low price in mind and very little thought towards playability. Sometimes with some work from a good guitar tech, these guitars can be made to play decently. Make sure things like action, intonation and truss rod adjustment, which are very crucial for a guitar to play right, are adjusted correctly.  Depending on the price of repairs and setup at your local store it may be worth it to spend a little extra on a guitar that is properly built. There are many manufacturers that make a decent beginner guitar.  Make sure that the guitar has been set up, not all shops will give an entry level guitar the attention that they need. Inexpensive guitars often require the most adjustment to play properly.  If the store won’t set it up for free make sure you know how much the charge of set up will be.  Any good guitar shop should set up the guitars they sell, especially entry level guitars!   Encouraging people to play can only help the industry grow!

ACOUSTIC VS. ELECTRIC

Usually we recommend beginning with acoustic guitar.  More focus can be given to learning the fundamentals of playing, rather than messing with all of the knobs and switches you find on an electric guitar and amplifier.  The thicker strings and higher action on an acoustic, although difficult to press in the beginning, will help build finger strength and callus more quickly.  Starting out with the thinner strings and low action of an electric guitar may also cause difficulty when attempting to switch to an acoustic in the future.  If light gauge acoustic strings (the size usually found on a new guitar) are just too thick for you to play, extra light or silk and steel strings can used.  We commonly start small children off with silk and steels, make a switch to extra light, and then finally to light gauge strings as their hands gain the strength.

On the other hand do not forget about the excitement factor of the electric guitar, some folks may just be more interested in the electric guitar.  If that interest translates into playing guitar longer or more often, it will make a difference in learning how to play the instrument.  Being amplified can also help you hear your mistakes, unless drenched in distortion, forcing you to pay more attention.  Plus the joy of hitting a nice distorted power chord for the first time is an experience that all should enjoy!

Now Back In Stock The Yamaha DGX660B Digital Piano (*Local Pickup Only)

Yamaha DGX660B Digital Piano (*Local Pickup Only)

The DGX-660 contemporary digital piano gives aspiring pianists a fun way to enhance their learning experience. Players of all abilities can feel what it’s like to play with a band and sound like a pro. The built-in USB Audio Recorder captures your musical inspirations when you’re ready to share your accomplishments.

Welcome to your personal “Piano Room”! The DGX-660 provides a dedicated virtual space where you can choose from a variety of pianos and acoustic settings, creating your personalized practice or performance environment. Simply select your desired piano, then choose any acoustic space ranging from a plain room, to a club stage, to a concert hall. You can even adjust the position of the virtual piano lid!

Simply connect a microphone to the DGX-660 to sing along either with your playing or with pre-recorded karaoke song files from Yamaha MusicSoft. You can hear what you sound like with everything mixed perfectly together from the built-in speakers. View the lyrics on the included score display. Three convenient presets are provided for different vocal performance situations. You can even create and save your own original microphone settings, including professional reverb and chorus effects.

Optional wireless adapters from Yamaha stream audio and MIDI to and from your iOS device with compatible music apps. The Chord Tracker app takes full advantage of this technology, allowing you to play back songs from your iOS device’s song library wirelessly through the DGX-660’s speaker system. Chord Tracker analyzes the audio songs stored in your iOS device and then displays the chord symbols for you. It can even create an XF song file that plays back the entire song using the DGX-660’s accompaniment Styles.

The Pure CF Sound Engine is the result of years of piano-making history combined with state-of-the-art sampling technology and piano expertise. Yamaha is the industry leader in digital piano technology, and you can hear this in the Voices that utilize the Pure CF piano sample. The sound of the renowned Yamaha CFIIIS 9′ concert grand piano is faithfully reproduced, allowing for incredible dynamics and expressiveness, making the DGX-660 worthy of the Yamaha name.

The Yamaha Graded Hammer Standard (GHS) keyboard features a weighted action with heavier touch in the low end and lighter touch in the high end, just like the hammers inside an acoustic piano. Great for the aspiring pianist, practicing on the GHS action builds the proper finger technique and strength for when the time comes to perform on an acoustic piano.

Damper Resonance digitally reproduces the sympathetic vibration between strings on acoustic pianos. Just like an acoustic piano, when the damper pedal is used in a performance, other strings add sonic color to the notes you play until the pedal is released.

The crystal-clear LCD can be switched to score or lyric display, showing you notation for any MIDI song that the DGX-660 is playing. Read the music for your favorite built-in songs, or follow along with songs downloaded to a USB device from Yamaha MusicSoft. Even see the score for songs you’ve created yourself on the DGX-660!
