Learn to Play Electric Guitar
With the increased pressure to “go electric,” many artists who played the guitar at the height of the Rock n Roll movement switched their acoustic instruments to electric versions. Unlike bass guitars, which can often be converted into electric basses, a purely electric guitar will not produce melodic sounds without the help of an amplifier which carries the tune produced through an electronic current. Electric guitars also allow the player to partially manipulate the sound coming to the amplifier through equalizing, distorting, and other methods.
If you want to teach yourself the electric guitar, you are going to first have to choose which type you want to play. Many versions exist and it is up to you to decide which one fits your style or how much dedication you really want to put into your practice. If you want to learn using classical pedagogy, lessons will probably be essential. Choosing this route will allow you to choose a five-, six-, seven-, or even twelve-stringed instrument. Similar to a regular bass or acoustic guitar, the electric guitar comes in various styles with different string options.
If you are learning to play an electric guitar from a professional instructor, then you will learn using the classical method, where learning the exact difference between notes, chords, and octaves is essential. This will allow you to read sheet music, even if you have never heard the music before. While this is a slower process, the foundation you are laying for future guitar success is greater because you will have already mastered reading music. Many guitar enthusiasts, who simply want to learn the electric version for fun almost never choose to learn to read music. Instead, they generally learn the four-stringed electronic guitar in chords, which allows them to “play by ear”. A four-stringed instrument is made up of regular note progressions, and switching in and out of different chords as well as training your left hand to switch and hold a chord in a certain fret as you strum in rhythm to the song of your choice is a lot easier.
The electric guitar is a great choice for those who want to play rock and roll, jazz, blues, and even modern versions of classical or contemporary music. If you haven’t bought an electric guitar yet, then you’ll have to consider what version you’d like. Some models have hollow bodies, while others are solid in their make up. A hollow-bodied guitar uses its inner cavity to bounce the sound around before it is emitted for amplification. This allows the resonation to be greater. A regular solid electric guitar emits the sound without any sort of resonation before it hits the amplifier.
Learning to play the electric guitar is as fun as learning to play a regular bass guitar. For those wanting to learn the fundamentals of guitar playing then an instructor might be the best option. But, if you simply want to learn for fun, practice using a four-stringed instrument by learning to play in chords and strum according to what you hear. This method is not only reserved for those who might be gifted in music, but for anyone who has patience, dedication, and a little time everyday to practice.
What's the difference between solid and hollow electric guitars?
I'm thinking of buying an electric guitar, and start learning to play it, but I have no idea which kind to buy. I was wondering, what's the difference, especially in sound. Also, which one is better and which one do you recommend.
Thanks
And also which brand do you recommend and where to buy it? I don't want to spend more than 500 dollars on a guitar.
There is no "best". Full hollow bodies have a "jazzy", mellow sound, but they can have feed back problems at high volume. If you're just starting out, a good solid body is probably better. The Squier HSS Strat is good as is the Epiphone Les Paul or SG. They are all around $300.

Mind And Body Should Be Healthy
Mind and body cannot be separated. Mind resides in the body. If body becomes diseased then mind also becomes diseased. If body is healthy but mind is not healthy then body has no use. This condition is seen only in case of unconsciousness, when body is alive and heart beat also continues. But it is useless. The body is like a dead body. Therefore, body is important only if mind is working. If body loses its existence, mind will also become inexistent.
Therefore our classics have rightly said that man is existing only because of mind, the reason is the relation of mind and salvation. For instance, the lock opens and closes with the same key. Our learned people also say that both mind and body are one. Our body is the bigger form of our mind and our mind is the minute form of our body. Our body has different requirements; similarly our mind also has different requirements. Our body also functions as per our mind. Our eyes see a particular thing but our mind is somewhere else, then it should be understood that the eyes are not able to see clearly. Similarly, we are hearing something but mind is not with it. So in one way, it has been unheard in spite of being heard.
- Therefore, every work performed by a sensory organ should be accompanied with the mind; else the work of sensory organs remains incomplete. Now we will know about the body requirements. The body needs food, clothes and a house to live.
- The body needs different things in order to keep it active and healthy. Wealth, education, abilities, occupation, business, farming etc. are required in order to keep the body active.
- Our body requires not one but thousands of such requirements in order to keep it active and useful. In the same way, morning walk, Yog practice, proper eating habits are required in order to keep it healthy.
There are two important factors with respect to controlled eating habits, one is to eat less than requirement so that the food is easily digested and unwanted things like betel leaf, pan masala, cigarette, alcohol, arcanut, and other drugs are restricted. The fourth requirement of the body is positive thinking. This means, not to think bad about others, not to indulge in wrong actions and be cheerful in mind.
These actions, positive thinking and cheerfulness are related to mind but mind does not see. The thoughts in our mind are seen through the medium of body only. We can misuse our body also, for instance indulging in wrong activities like stealing, dacoity, begging etc. in
other words, use and misuse of anything depends on our mental tendency. Therefore, mind manages our actions. The bodily actions are dependent on mental tendencies. We have analyzed the methods to keep the body healthy but now we have to think about keeping the mind also healthy so that positive thoughts develop in the mind and negative thoughts are removed. Mind should be involved in reading good literature and religious texts. Habit of listening to good stories should be developed along with the habit of living in good company.
- We are aware of physical diseases, for instance cold, fever, diarrhea, diabetes, blood pressure, cancer etc.
- In the same way mental diseases are lust, anger, greed, attachment, jealousy, hatred love etc.
- Physical diseases are cured in hospitals through allopathy, Ayurveda, homeopathy etc. But, mental diseases can be overcome with good company, reading good literature, fulfilling duties and responsibilities.
- The principle of three monkeys of Gandhiji should be followed – do not see bad, do not listen bad, do not speak bad.
All these actions will keep away mental diseases. One more important thing to be remembered in this regard is that, the theologists, saints, great personalities, scientists, politician, businessmen, entrepreneurs, kings, poppers, poor, rich also have the same mind and body. But, there is lot of difference between two individuals that is unimaginable. On one side there is a king, on the other side there is a popper. On one side there is a sage and an ascetic and on the other side there is a lustful person. On one side there is a dutiful person and on the other side there is a lazy and inefficient person.
We have also seen that a person born in a king's family can become a popper and vice versa.
Why does it happen?
The reason is that people have started believing in fate. They are not aware that one can change ones fate with good deeds. Fate is also the result of our
deeds. Fate is the result of that action which we did not get. The reason being that we are independent in doing our work but dependent on getting results. All the energies of the existence accumulate together and give results on the basis of our actions. It is the energies of the existence that decide as to when we will get the result of a particular work, how much, in which form.
Therefore, we are dependent on getting our results. It means, king and popper, rich and poor have got the same mind and body but the result of work will depend on the way the mind and body have been utilized. Good results will be obtained if good use has been made, bad results will be obtained if bad use has been made. When we do wrong deeds we spoil our own wealth and health. God has given us healthy and beautiful body, which we
turn into ugly and diseased body due to our deeds. Our body and mind become polluted due to unhealthy thoughts and bad company.
Leading Healthy Life
- If we want to lead a healthy and happy life and attain spiritual progress then it is necessary to have proper knowledge of mental science.
- Majority of the physical diseases are generated from mind. This should always be remembered.
- A true ascetic might be living without food, house but he is always happy and strong. The reason is that he possesses internal strength.
- On the other hand, a lustful person has lot of wealth, house and all the things of comfort. But he is sad and diseased. The reason is that he did not use his mind and body properly.
- Our daily routine should be balanced. Excessive physical labor and mental stress should be avoided. Excess of anything is bad, it means the body should not be habituated to too much comforts or too much labor.
- Our energy is lost due to worries. We feel sad about past, attached towards the present and afraid of future. We become worried due to the fear of future.
- Fear is imaginative, for example, if the child does not come back from school on time, we start worrying about some mishappening.
- When the child comes back, this worry is overcome but some other worry starts. Majority of the worries are imaginative.
- The worries make the body hollow just like the wood that becomes hollow due to termite. Worries make us diseased; diseases like blood pressure and diabetes are due to worries. We have to change our worries into thinking.
- Worry is also a mental disease but it becomes a physical disease. Therefore it should be avoided. Mind and body are related, hence any physical problem has impact on mind. Similarly any mental problem has an impact on body.
- If we are sad, we do not feel hungry, we will feel weakness, body will become inactive, we lose concentration and dedication in work.
- In the same way, if there is pain in any part of the body then we are unable to think and focus.
- Therefore, a healthy person is one who has healthy body and mind. The mind should be free of negative thoughts and body should be free of diseases.
Psychologists believe that the reason for diseases is more of mental problems than physical problem. They believe that emotions like anger, hatred, lust, revenge lead to accumulation of poison in blood that result in different diseases. If there is any negative feeling in mind, like fear, sorrow then it has impact on cells through the nerves. The cells become weak and working capacity reduces. Very few people realize that feelings like hatred, jealousy, anger, impatience cause more harm to self than to others. The amount of energy spent in ten minutes of anger is more than the energy spent for ploughing in the field for two days. Premature graying of hair is seen due to insensitiveness, impatience and worry.
What is mind after all?
It is a secretive minute strength. It is the expression of internal strength. It is a group of lustful thoughts and imaginations. It gives birth to this world and destroys it. It is made of three qualities – piousness, passion and anger. When pious nature is dominant then we experience good health and peace of mind. When passion is dominant then we experience wavering mind, confusion and restlessness. When anger is dominant in our nature then we experience lethargy. It should be remembered that lethargy is the grave in which all the good qualities are buried. It is necessary to live in the company of good people in order to purify the mind. It is necessary to develop calmness, faith, truth, love, sympathy, courage, respect, happiness, self confidence within us. Only then we can attain happiness, peace of mind and harmony. Mind will also be completely health and a healthy mind will keep the body healthy.

The Many Different Kinds of Guitars!
There are so many different kinds of guitars out there! In the Acoustic section alone there are
Acoustic/Electric guitars- The basic Acoustic Guitar with a twist. Either inside or out there will be a cable or cable attachment to which you can hook you acoustic guitar into an amp! So with the Acoustic/Electric you get the best of both worlds. These guitars come in a 6 and 12 string style. You can also find these in specially designed jazz or classical style. And or course there are always those made for left handed players.
Acoustic 6 string- A hollow or semi hollow guitar body holding the maximum of 6 strings.
Acoustic 12 string- A hollow or semi hollow guitar body holding the maximum of 12 strings
Baby Acoustics in 6 or 12 string- These are guitars designed for either people who prefer using smaller guitars, children, or traveling guitarists who don't want to cramp people too badly.
Now for the Electric Bad boys....there are the same ones as the acoustic listed above (6 string, 12 string, and baby).
The Electric guitars- are however not hollow bodied. They are all...you guessed it electrical! 
To use an electric guitar (well to hear it anyway), you need an amplifier and a cable to attach the two together. The sound comes out of the amp and not the actual guitar, as it is with the acoustic.
Electric Basses- are the electric guitars with either 4, 5, or even 6, and 7 strings. What makes this guitar different from the regualar electric guitar is the thickness of the strings, the bass is a much lower, deeper sound, and therefore much thicker strings.
Bass- These low, beauties also come in Electric/Acoustic or just the plain Acoustic.
What is that paper thing in Legend of Sleepy Hollow with Johnny Depp called?
It has the bird on one side and a cage on the other and is attached to strings so when you twirl it it looks like the bird is inside the cage. Is there a name for that?
It's called thaumatrope. See here:
http://courses.ncssm.edu/gallery/collections/toys/html/exhibit06.htm
Similar devices that use the same principle of persistence of vision are for example the phenakistoscope (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Phenakistoscope) and the zoetrope (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Zoetrope)

Buying Guide for Electric Guitars
Buying Guide for Electric Guitars
What to look for when buying an electric guitar – getting the most value for the money whether you choose to buy new or used.
Who hasn’t dreamed of playing an electric guitar in front of thousands of screaming fans? Well before you can be the next Jimi Hendrix you must first buy a quality guitar. Any electric guitar for sale belongs to one of three basic body styles: solid-body, semi-hollow, and hollow-body. The solid body electric guitar is a good choice when loud, sustained amplification and lots of effects is the desired sound one is looking for. The semi-hollow body guitar is useful when more of an acoustic sound, with high levels of amplification is required. The typical hollow-body, or jazz guitar you’ll find for sale provides the acoustic sound plus an electric sound when plugged into an amplifier, but these hollow-body guitars can be prone to feedback at high levels of amplification.
Your main determining factor for choosing a guitar will be how much you are willing to spend. The choices available today are limitless in styles, features, and the all important price tag. If you are new to the guitar, you’ll be surprised at just how well a “budget” or even used instruments sounds. Most “cheap” electrics are solid-body, and will carry a price of between $100 to $300 dollars. A great source of used affordable equipment can be found on eBay.com; you can find great deals on quality guitars there. Another perfect resource for new guitar players is how-to-guitar.com. This site has a wonderful buyers guide, and really covers all aspects of buying, playing, and building an electric guitar. I highly recommend that site for any “newbie’s” to the electric guitar.
Buying Your First Electric Guitar
Buying a guitar can be very exciting if you do the appropriate research before hitting the online stores. The answer to whether you buy new or used will depend on your budget and the quality of guitar you wish to purchase. There are many brands and models of guitars for sale and you must do your due diligence before settling on a particular instrument. And once you have browsed the selections and made a purchase, then the real excitement begins as you feel the rush of mastering this most perfect instrument
Can I add a bigsby b700 to an epiphone dot studio semi-hollow body guitar?
The bigsby kit says that it is for solid body guitars. however i have seen it done on a dot studio, but i would like to know if there would be damage down the road.
Bigsby makes two different kits: One for solid bodies (fender) and one for archtops (gibson, epiphone). I looked into this earlier, seeing as I own an Epiphone Dot Studio myself, and a Bigsby would look sexy as hell on it.
