Washburn WI14 - Your opinion about it?
WI14 is the cheapest of the Idol series, mine is made in China, boght it for the equivalent of 220 dollars.
If any of you has one, would you like to share your impressions about it?
I am a begginer, at a pretty late age (20+), i'm getting started to be able to reproduce pretty well various intros from artists like Guns'n'Roses, Black Sabbath, Limp Bizkit, Crematory, Nirvana... using SW processor for distorsions and other effects. I like its sound, sustain and playability, but what should i expect to not be able to get fom it ?
Thank You!
Washburn WI14 is an electric guitar, low end, but quite appreciated for its affordable quality .

Mine is blue 
Leo, what you get from it is entirely dependent upon your skill level. Washburn makes a damned good guitar, period. A friend of mine and a fellow gigging guitarist owns a music store. One night before we were going to leave for some local jams, he couldn't get to his regular Baby, and decided to pick up something from the risers on display. You guessed it - he grabbed a Washburn very similar to yours and loved it. Of course, he sets up all the guitars before putting them out on the floor, and that makes a world of difference. The point here, though, is that you can look at guitars costing many times more, but many still have the basswood body, the maple bolt-on neck, and so forth. If you have the confidence that you have a good guitar at a great price, your playing may improve immediately. Go ahead, push the envelope!

Learn And Master Bass Guitar Review: Is This Bass Training Course A Gem Or A Dud?
The Learn and Master Bass Guitar Lesson DVDs are the most recent attempt by the folks at Learning Legacy Systems to produce yet another award winning guitar course. This all-video instructional program is designed to utilize a world-class bassist to teach someone with little or no experience how to play the bass in a logical, comprehensive, step-by-step way.
About The Instructor:
According the publisher, Tony Marvelli is a professional bassist and instructor. He has played bass for Mark Schultz, gospel singer Andre Couch, American Idol Finalist Mandisa, Denver and the Mile High Orchestra and many others. Mr. Marvelli comes from a diverse musical background that includes Rock, Jazz, Folk, Big Band Swing as well as old-school R&B.
The Physical Parts of The Bass Guitar Course Include:
- 3 DVDs of over 4 hours of instruction
- Downloadable Lessons support book
- Play along Jam-Tracks for learning to play with a band
- Online support for asking questions of the instructor and other bass students
The Lessons Include:
- The fundamental step-by-step basics for getting started
- Learning to read music
- Base line patterns
- Music theory
- Chords
- Scales including the pentatonic and blues scales
- Chord progressions
- Learning to play the blues
- Techniques: fast shuffles, palm muting, slow 12/8 bass, bends, pull-offs, hammer-ons, slide playing
The Negatives
This is not so much a negative as it is a tip for students that wish to view the DVDs on a laptop computer. Many laptop speakers are not designed to reproduce the sounds of the lowest of the base notes. This can result in either a garbled sound or no sound. Some of the simple solutions include; plugging a set of headphones or external speakers into the computer or playing the lessons on a DVD player connected to a standard television set.
The Positives
- This is a full video format and not just occasional short video snippets.
- The Instructor, Tony Marvelli is a full time professional bassist and teacher.
- The instructor has a distinct and easy to understand style of speaking.
- The Legacy Learning Systems Company has never produced a bad product. Every one of their training courses that I have reviewed has been well organized with top notch instructors.
- The video is well produced with clear details.
Support and Guarantee: An Online Support Community is available to each student. A 60 Day Money Back Guarantee is standard on all purchases from Legacy Learning Systems.
The Bottom Line
At this point in time the Learn and Master Bass Guitar Lesson DVDs has received my first place rating for primarily three reasons. The first reason is based on their reputation for producing superior instructional programs time after time.
The second reason is that this course is the only one that I have encountered so far where the format is all-video and not just an eBook with short little video enhancements. The difference is a huge benefit to any student.
The third and final reason is that the instructor, Tony Marvelli, is a much more successful and experienced bassist than is offered in any other bass guitar course I have seen to date.
It is important to note that this is a pre-release review and not all of the information is yet available about this program. As it becomes available I will update this review. However, I have no hesitation in recommending the Learn And Master Bass Guitar Lesson DVDs.

Learn How to Play the Guitar Online
Time has proven that guitar is without any doubt the most versatile instrument ever played. It found its way in all music genres from jazz to heavy metal not to mention that many lead singers are usually guitar players also. If you want to learn how to play the guitar online, rest assure, there are many online guitar learning courses available.
Playing guitar is not that hard but it requires a lot of commitment and patience from you. On the other side, you will also have to take into consideration all the physical effects that come with guitar playing.
The strumming of the strings will cause calluses on your fingers, until you get accustomed with the chords. Your hands might experience some cramps and your shoulders will have to deal with the heaviness of the guitar.
No one was born knowing how to play the guitar, everyone started somewhere. If you think that your guitar idol didn’t had any finger calluses or shoulder fatigue you’re wrong. They all had it. Pain is part of the game but if you really want to play guitar then you’ll learn how to deal with all these problems.
The first step when learning how to play a guitar is to learn how to tune it because otherwise it will only produce bad sounds. You can do this manually or electronically because all music stores sell now electronic tuners.
At the bottom you find the lower E string and tune it. Next it comes the A string, the D string, the G string, the B string and the higher E string.
Also, you can pay one of the guys from the music store to tune your guitar at least until you learn how to do it yourself.
With a properly tuned guitar your can now learn the guitar tabs. The Internet is filled with online tutorials so you shouldn’t have a problem finding one.
Each of your fingers should stay in a string in order to learn faster and experience less pain. After your fingers are in the right place, you should try to strum the guitar. Practice makes it perfect. Try simple chords like C, G and A and you will see how easy it is.
If you do all the above you should learn how to play guitar in no time. Practice all the time and maybe someday you will be the next Jimmy Hendrix.
What does the symbol on Jason Castro's guitar on American Idol mean?
The rounded triangle.
It is a Luna brand guitar. The symbol is a triquetra. It symbolizes the Celtic beliefs that everything has three distinct yet interlocked levels - physical, mental and spiritual. (according to the guitar manufacturer)
