Fender Cabronita

This is really nice don't you think? It looks sturdy and the color is pretty neat! I always want to own an acoustic guitar but, considering the hectic work schedule that I have right now,  my hobbies will take the backseat of my priorities.

Guitar Strings

Two days ago, I was playing my guitar and one of the strings snapped! Oh boy, I was in the middle of singing and strumming the song "When I was Your Man" , much to my dismay, I quit. Today, I will buy a replacement and I need to find my guitar tuning too. Anyway, if you have been playing the guitar, I am sure you have this kind of experience too. Well, for music enthusiast like you, check out piezo pickup site for all your needs in music related items. Enjoy your day!

Type of Music Preference

The type of #music that we have today is evolving to a higher level in so many aspects. It may not be favorable to people who loves the good ole music but, let's face it, we have a new generation who prefers rap music than classical ones. I do listen to #classicalmusic. Let's face the truth that classical music is well-loved by many up to this time because it is remarkably complex and the quality is unequal. Classical music is meant to last forever.
I do listen to instrumental guitar music too. It soothes my soul and calms me down. But, in this generation where technology is extremely important, making music with the help of musical gadgets is needed such as Electro-Harmonix Pedals. It is a tone wicker and if the young music lover wanted to create distortion and tonal abilities, simple switch of the button will create another dimension of musical creation. Could it be music or Noise? It all depends to the individual listener. For all I know, young generation appreciate this type of music. What type of music do you prefer then?

Watching Music Videos : Guitar Plucking and Harmonica Playing

When I woke up at 3 AM and can't go back to sleep, I find myself hooked on watching YouTube videos preferably, news and music. I watch old movies of Charlie Chaplin and Shirley Temple too. If you haven't seen their movies yet; I dare you to watch and you'll comeback here and thank me for sure.

Lately, I was watching guitar plucking and was deeply in-love with the skills of many YouTube users. They could be famous you know if they pursue their talent and skills. I also watch some videos of those who played harmonica and they're really good. I like Bob Dylan's harmonica solo. I have no skills in playing harmonica but; if you have the talent, go for it. Make sure to check out lee oskar at guitar center if you are looking for instruments and gadgets. Tutorials for any musical instruments are in YouTube too so; get your instrument and start learning.

Guitar Playing

If you love music, learning to play the guitar could be so easy. There are songs that you can play using 3 chords or 4 chords. Other songs have complicated chords though and needs strategy to sound better like guitar plucking. I have no talent for that! The first song that I learn to play is Yesterday by John Lennon. There are probably 3 or 4 chords which for me are hard to position but, practice makes perfect so; I was able to play and sing along with it after days of practice. More than Words by Extreme has easy to follow chords as well.
 
I admit that right now, I seldom play my guitar because I am having a hard time tuning it. No matter how I tried, I can't tune my guitar alone and I need someone to tune it for me. That's a hassle and ... terrible, I know! After seeing this martin d-28 guitar online, I wanted to play my guitar. I went ahead and tried tuning my guitar. No luck for me! This is insane!

Happy Times

One of the most amazing activities that I did when I was in high school was visiting my favorite radio host, Ate Joy A when I have no class. Her radio show was a hit by students plus, her selection of music was truly the best and captured the hearts of young listeners in my time. Sundays, I hang out in the radio station and she has shown me how to operate those confusing keys. Which key to turn on when there's a caller and how to put them on the air.

There was a recording studio and I tell you what, they have a singing contest as well and yep, I am one of those who can't make up to the monthly finals LOL. Anyway, inside the studio, it was overwhelming but, in a good way. Singing was like using the save on scarlett 2i2 and my voice sounds better inside the booth. I miss those times of joining the singing competition and playing the requested music on air. Those days were happy times for me.

Remembering Friends and Family at Christmas Time

I am not done shopping yet. I am not even done sending Christmas cards to my friends and family. Today is the last day of sending Christmas presents in the mail and it will still arrive on Christmas day. I received many Christmas cards from friends and family already and yes, the thoughts really matter. It is heartwarming to know who truly remembers you at Christmas time. Today, we will pick up some presents in the store and directly send them in the post office.

How about you? Are all the presents put together under the Christmas tree yet? If something missing for the music minded member in the family, take a last minute shopping of a jones oboe reed medium today. If you think this present will delight him/her on Christmas Day then, go get it. Have a wonderful Christmas you all and may your Christmas be filled with good cheer, happiness and love.

Singing the Christmas Carols

When I look around in our neighborhood today, I felt the nostalgia. There are few families who are ready for Christmas and most of them have their Christmas lights and decors set up already. Christmas back home is more fun! I remember that as early as December 1, there are carolers roaming in our streets and most of them do the caroling for a good cause. They give out letters and they will come when the family said yes to their request.

The carolers have their guitarist, a soloist and they usually sang 3 to 4 songs. Their guitar is not as fancy as the  taylor baby guitar mahogany top but, they sang beautifully. By now, the church choir is busy practicing for Christmas songs every night. As a matter of fact, my mom is busy in her church group too. They're practicing a Christmas Carol for their up coming Christmas party.

Best Guitar Brand

I have a guitar given to me by my husband about three years ago but, I seldom play with it. I played few times then, the #4 string broke. I was planning to buy the string but my bad, I keep forgetting every time I was in the mall. Or, maybe I am not inspired to play because there was no one around to enjoy the music with. Back home, my friends and I love to play the guitar all the time. One strum and everyone will start singing a harmony and I missed that moment.

My guitar is similar to gibson les paul junior ebony though, this one is truly gorgeous. Mine look so simple but, the sound is excellent after all, the maker is the best guitar brand around. Tomorrow, hubby and I will be going to the mall to buy the string and that is the only reason why we will be going there. I do not think I will forget it this time.
