The Instrument Room

Yeah, can someone find a tab for the acoustic intro to Brothers and Sisters? I want to learn it and I'm unable to figure it out myself, lol. I looked on various tab sites but none had it...please help! If you help, you'll get a cookie.

I am looking at buying a drum set. I dont need anything fancy, just the basic 5-peice. Does anyone know what the best i can get is for value, and also what kind of price I am looking at in Canadian dollars for used or new ones? Please any help would be great!

yay! I'm getting one tomorrow!! ^_^

hi I'm new i basically know coldplay guitar like the back of my hand. If you have any quesions, i'd be happy to answer them. i know its really annoying not knowing how to play a song

Yeah, I need help with this one. I really want to play this song, but whenever I try to play it by ear, it sounds somehwat..."off." And I've tried looking around for tabs but they confuse the hell out of me. Can someone help me out with this song?

hey hello there im new,ive been reading the board for a few months but ive just registered and sorry if i do a lot a mistake my english is bad! anyway id like to know if anyone tried to tabs the new song

Found a great site for my friends at the Coldplaying forum :nice: http://www.geocities.com/fizzy24121987/

Ive seen many tabs for this song and all sound good but are not right, when jonny plays it, its high up on the neck but all the tabs have it low on the neck. Does any one know the right chords. Thanks

i wanna record some stuff to my computer but im not sure if i can just directly plug the guitar in to the line in socet I do have an effects processer if I need to connect the guitar to something else first

so i'm playing Fake Plastic Trees and one of the chords is: Dmaj9/F# 2 X 0 2 2 0 but every time i see Thom playing this chord it doesnt look like it's right, and plus he uses his middle finger to play the F# on the low E string, but that just seems wrong to me. so what im asking is what are the finger positions for that chord? (sorry for the small pic)

Has anyone heard of this guitar? It's a copy of the Fender Standardcaster. The Interceptor was discontinued, and now they have the Interceptor II. A friend of mine was going to sell me his old (like new) Interceptor for only 150 bucks. I tossed the deal out the window though because I want to use that money to buy a Dell Axim pocket pc. Was this a good decision? If not, I'll tell him I want the guitar again. But yeah, I was going to use the pocket pc for alot of stuff,since I had one last year and some f*ckwad broke it to be funny. So yeah, let me have your input!

does anyone have the Everything In Its Right Place live video by Radiohead? or The Astoria video of Interpol? well in the radiohead video jonny and ed just sit down and play with pedals. and they're like stompboxes, what else can you do with a stombox besides step on it? do you guys understand what i'm trying to say? i went to the guitar store and fiddled around with their pedals but i couldn't make any sounds or whatever come out of them. idk, i'm starting to confuse myself.

I have the Coldplay AROBTTH book, but I feel like the songs are not what Chris actually plays. I think I further confirm my suspicions when I see video of him playing and it seems like hes playing so much more complicated versions. This is the same for a Gavin Degraw piece I just downloaded. It is like the singing and piano part in one, but when I saw a video of him playing he was playing something completely different which is to be expected since he is singing where I am playing. The thing is I want the music they are playing when they are singing; I want the complicated; I want the goods.

Here's some solos I did. I totally f*cked some of them up though. I'm usually right on te ball. http://sexypenguins.com/upload/crappysolos.mp3 I also screwed up the ID Tags on the mp3 lol :rolleyes: But yeah, listen if you aren't a guitarist, LOL.

Man, I need help. I don't know how or why this may have started, but whenever I go to use the microphone jack on my computer, it f*cks up everything. When I try to record something, it'll like tune down the volume and give it like a phaser effect to it and it's F*CKING annoying. Specially when I try to record guitar or something. I recorded a wonderful acousitc song last night with no mistakes whatsoever and it just sounded so perfect but the damn thing screwed it up. I need some help here.\ Download this mp3 and see for yourself as to what happens. Please help me! http://home.ripway.com/2005-2/258527/helpmeplz.mp3 Oh, and before you ask, yes, that is the m…

I thought i'd put what i believe to be the tunings for the album parachutes. Standard = E A D G B E Don't Panic - Standard Shiver - D# B G B A E Spies - C# B G C# A E Sparks - E A D G B D [A Capo on the 6th from for the Acoustic Guitar] Yellow - D# B G B A E Trouble - E A D G B D [on the acoustic and Electric] Parachutes - D# B G B A E High Speed - D B G D G D Everything's Not Lost - Electric Guitar is Standard. [no Acoustic] Life Is For Living - D B G D A E .what use are the tunings without the chord shapes i hear someone ask. well a…

So im new to guitars and want to buy an electric. What coldplay songs are easy to learn for both acoustic and electric? What do I need to play electric, and does anyone know any good sites that would help me learn the very basics. I know how to hold a guitar but thats about it. Anyway so please can someone help.

Does anyone know what brand Chris's acoustic is? I always thought it might be a Martin, but that's only cause his last name is Martin ;) Ya, I know that Jonny has a Tele, which is a very fine guitar, but I only have the standard version :'(

For any of you guitar players out here, take notice that Parachutes and the intro to Yellow are VERY MUCH alike. All parachutes is picking the inttro to Yellow and a few added parts. I think that Parachutes was gonna be a part of a different song. But I don't know. lol.

just downloaded the acoustic version of clocks from the multimedia section, does any have tabs or could anyone make tabs for this song? thanks homer

I was inspired by talking about Stairway to Heaven in another thread here, and I feel like I want to say this. I used to work in a music store (sold guitars and basses and accessories and such) and I eventually got incredibly sick of hearing people come in and try to impress me, my co-workers, other customers, or their girlfriend by playing the same damn songs as every other guy that came in the store. So the next time you're in a music store, be forewarned that if you play any parts of any of these songs, whoever is working there will hate you now and forever: - Stairway to Heaven or any other songs from Led Zeppelin IV - Crazy Train - any Metallica song - Sw…

I'm thinking of getting a cheap electric bass guitar just so I can fool around with it. I just wanted to know, I found a 90$ Rogue Bass guitar on musiciansfriend.com. Are Rogues any good? Link: http://www.musiciansfriend.com/srs7/g=bass/search/detail/base_pid/519243/

If anyone knows let me know Thank you

Yeah, have any of you heard the acoustic version of clocks? If so, I really want the tab to it- no, not the part that's played on the piano but the backround guitar that plays along with the main riff guitar or w/e, lol. If someone knows what the hell I'm talking about, reply.
