Takamine Acoustic Left Hand And Electric Left Hand Oriented Guitars

By Zane J Freeman

When thinking of acoustic left hand guitars, Takamine immediately comes to mind. The US distributor for Takamine is US based. They are called the Kaman Corporation. They are well known for the pre-amp/EQ's they have in every model acoustic/electric guitar. The same goes for their acoustic.

Every Takamine acoustic electric guitar can be ordered in left hand style.

Among the many series of Takamine acoustic electric left handed guitars, there are two that stand out. One of these is the G series and encompasses a wide variety of acoustic electric guitar, left hand models included. Most of them feature a spruce top that is solid with nato sides and back. Not real sure what nato is, but I know that the instruments are spectacular.

If you are looking at value, the Takamine acoustic electric guitar for lefties is the best. The body style remains unaltered, whereas the competition has changed the body style for left handed players. The left handed guitar keeps a classic dreadnought and has a flat rear and molded sides. This creates a rich acoustic timber and keeps the guitar from slipping as you play.

The only change is that some of these acoustic left hand guitars have a cutaway and some dont. I prefer the single cutaway because it allows access to the higher register, giving the player a further range. Most of the models I looked at had a smaller scale neck with only 20 frets. The neck joins at the 14th and you have clear access to frets 15 through 20. That is especially crucial when you kick in the pre-amp and power up for leads or standout rhythm riffs.

The single variation is that a few of these acoustic left hand guitars possess a cutaway and a few do not. I like using the single cutaway as it permits using the higher register, offering the player a greater range. A great number of the models I observed possess a smaller scale neck with just 20 frets. The neck meet at the 14th and you get easy access to frets 15 through 20. That is really important at the time you kick in the pre-amp and power up for leads or standout rhythm riffs.

I cannot finish this one without a word on Takamines Natural series. This is a more upscale model from the G series and features a Mahogany back and sides with a solid cedar top. Still, the Takamine Natural acoustic electric guitar left handed version is a great value for the money.

As they mention, the life of the guitar is in the wood and similar series from Takamine are almost the same. Both the series of acoustic left hand guitars, electric as well as the others, possess a really great tone and clarity. Join Takamines focus to workmanship with a collection of medium to light steel strings and you possess a winning musical match.

Why Wireless Outdoor Speakers Are Your Ticket Back To Nature

By Dave Heebs

No matter what time in Mankind's history, he has always been working, playing and living outdoors. As we have grown more towards an urban society, we have gradually slipped away from our bond towards Mother Earth. It is this missing link to nature that causes many of us to venture out into the outdoors to exercise, picnic, camp or simply to enjoy a leisurely evening on the veranda.

When they go outdoors and enjoy nature, people usually do not leave all of their electronic devices at home. Sometimes, for example, joggers will take along personal devices so they can listen to music as they run. Things such as the Walkman have been keeping runners entertained on their miles long runs for decades. And now iPods have taken their place.

There are tons attachments and accessories that can be found for your iPod. Each iPod comes standard with a fantastic set of stereo headphones. These headphones give the wearer a superior auditory experience but even this is a solitary pleasure since any guests in the room cannot hear the music in the headphones. To fix this issue, the iPod is equipped with an external speaker port so that a set of external speakers can be attached to it.

What if you dont have an iPod and want to hook up your stereo to speakers outdoors? You are in luck because major manufacturers have developed both wired and wireless speakers that can be used outdoors.

You will find a great many manufacturers who have offered many different models for sale. Some of these manufacturers include, but are not limited to, Harman Kardon, Bose, Klipsch and Acer. The models are spaced out in qualty and in price but the best bang for your buck can be found under $400. This means that a superior quality set of outdoor speakers can be purchased inexpensively.

You will love the ability to just take your speakers everywhere you go. The wireless outdoor speakers will allow you to take them to the mountains and the beach without having to worry about plugging them into a power source and running wires from the audio source.

The one thing you need to make sure is the batteries are charged in the speakers. Since the speakers have no external power, they need to have an internal power source. This means that batteries are included in each one of these speakers. The batteries could be recharged via a solar panel or could be plugged into a wall socket so that their batteries can be fully charged. - 18780

Learn How to Play the Guitar in 5 minutes!

By John Edward

Well, maybe you've dabbled with it here and there, but haven't actually played a cool tune. You know, "Hot-Cross-Buns" or something similar, but not any major music hits. It doesn't matter what kind of music you enjoy, the guitar is great for any category.

If you've wanted to play the guitar, there are a few things you'll need to have before getting started. It's patience, dedication, and commitment that will all you to progress. Then of course you can't overlook the physical issues you'll have to get used to feeling.

The first thing that you'll notice is calluses. It happens to every guitar player both new and old, so get used to them. Remember, the strumming of the strings is relentless and there are going to be some "hard labor" going on with your hands. Plus, we promise you the shoulders will get sore.

We all have to start at the beginning, and so do you. No one has ever been able to just pick up a guitar and play a Beatles, Rolling Stones, Fall Out Boyz, or any other group's song without learning the ins and outs.

Before you learn how to play the guitar, you have to know how to tune it. In order to produce good sounds, your guitar needs proper tuning. The first step is to tune the lower E string, which is at the bottom. Next is the A string (2nd from the bottom), D string (3rd from the bottom), G string (fourth from the bottom) and B string (5th from the bottom). The last string to tune is the high E string. You can also use electronic tuners; these are available at most any music stores.

You can pay the music store to tune your guitar for you. However, it really is a skill that you should learn on your own. Otherwise, you'll be spending a lot of money on having your guitar tuned. You can ask someone at a music store to teach you how to tune a guitar. They may do it for free, or they may charge a small fee. It is worthwhile to learn because you'll also ensure that any time you're ready to play, your guitar will sound its best.

Once your guitar is properly tuned, you should now learn how to read guitar tabs. These tutorials can be found in the internet. Then, you must properly place your fingers on each string. This can help you lessen the pain that you will encounter. After that, try to strum the guitar using your other hand. Lastly, practice playing songs that have the least complicated chords to play. Some simple chords are C, G, and A.

Alright! You're now ready to play the guitar. Did it take you five minutes to read this and position the fingers? Hopefully it did, and now you have yourself a new hobby. Happy Playing! - 18780
