The Instrument Room

I want to play the piano again. I've started but have forgotten everything. Wbat are some easy songs to learn and play that aren't kids songs. Something new and decent. And is there a site to go to for this kind of thing?

Hey All I was looking at Chris's acoustics and they ROCK!!!! I know they're gibson blues kings, but I was wondering where I could find a guitar of identical body shape and similar sound but which isn't £2,000 odd? I know it'll be hard, but it doesn't have to be exactly like it, but, whatever's closest. Oh, and I'd like to paint it (no, not just because Coldplay do it) but I had the idea a few years back, and my dad won't let me with the one I have now (since he bought me it). So, thankyou a lot in advance!!

Hey all. Listen, i was messing around on my keyboard, and I found a chord which sounded like the start of Lhuna!!! So, i listened to the track, and picked up a few more chords. I noticed that there's no chords in any shape or form on the internet (or at least where I looked) So, I'm here to give it a try, and please, if anything's wrong, please correct me, coz there is definitely some wrong chords (i can't get the bridge part "I don't know what the time is..." So, here goes! Intro: Bbm Bbm F I’m all by myself Bbm F I don’t need anybody else Bbm F I’m all by myself Db F No help (same as prev…

Hi everyone, time to buy a new amp, my old one is gone. Had a tiny terror, but i felt it was too dark sounding with my thinline, and it didn't have much headroom. I've looked some fender amps, i have also played some. What do you guys think of Fender blues jr? does it have much headroom? The other amps that i've got on my "list" is princeton reverb/deluxe reverb. I'm gonna play it at home, and in a band local am i able to capture jonnys sound with one of these? I think those amps also will suite me, and i also play some dire straits, gilmour, and u2. I know that jonny has some hot rod devilles and a twin reverb, but those amps just got too much power, can't …

London Bombs is a new song of the newest album of them. It's an Australian band, i know them by an Australian friend of mine. She stayed in Holland for a year as an exchange student. I'm searching for the sheet 'london bombs' so if anyone have it please please scan it. And upload it.

So I'm getting a new guitar soon, but I can't decide between a Casino or a Dot. I prefer the P-90's to humbuckers, not to mention the Casino's Beatle-esque sound. But, my uncle told me that you can't play loud on full hollow body guitars. Is this true? And could anyone with experience with both guitars (Or the ES-330 and ES-335) help me? Thanks!

Hi! Im looking for the strum pattern for Lovers in Japan which I found in this forum. thanks!

I heard it on sixty minutes on cbs they said they might come out with that new song soon...anyone know what im talking about???

I have found a link for 2000 Miles sheet music: http://www.musicnotes.com/sheetmusic/scorch.asp?ppn=SC0030945&bd=Voice,%20Piano%20and%20Guitar%20Title%20Index&bl=/SheetMusic/index/Voice/VoicePianoGuitar/html/defaultn0.asp&mnuid=CZHHCLLM41764GGJ2TSHYW9DKLV0PWS61KCSPWS6 You will need to install the active X control if this pops up to view the sheet music. It's only the first page and it's the Pretenders version but you get the gist of the song as it's just repeated. I'll try and play it tomorrow to see what it sounds like! I think this may be the closest we get to the actual sheet music. :)

Anyone know where they got that type of string sound from?

Hi everybody. I was wondering if anyone knew the exact chords for the Lovers In Japan Acoustic. I have looked everywhere and have not found the right ones. I would really apprecciate it! Thanks!!

Got two questions. There is a "synthy" sound Jonny does on Lovers in Japan right at 17 seconds into the song. He's just hangin on one note, but the effects make it sound real full. Anyone got any idea what's he is using? Also, tryin to figure out what he is using 2:18 into Death and All His Friends. I'm new to the forum and apologize if these questions have been asked ;)

I found this pics online of all the guitars Jon had in his roadcase for the VLV tour. It answers more than a few questions we've had on here concerning just what he takes on the road.

Hi I know there's been lots of questions about this but my dad has finally decided to buy me an electric guitar. I'm going to the US in a couple days and I'm hoping I find a guitar I like there. The thing for me is the pedals and that stuff. I would like you to explain to me if it's not too much to ask what's each effect. I've seen pedals of "distortion, sustain, overdrive" and some others. I know what the first is of course butI don't know if those pedals of distotion can be set so that it does not sound like a heavy metal guitar you know to choose a level of distortion. And also I can do this with just the amp right?? so is it worth it if our budget is quite l…
