I agree with THIs album... it is one of those albums that I can't find
anything wrong with, but nothing GREAT either... so a few listens and then
pick it up once in a while is about it.... 

I can;t say that all albums with only solo electric guitar are that way
though!  :)

A lot of songs from The Police are very much reggae influenced, and their
lead guitarist Andy Summers (spl ?) often gets a nice reggae style chop 
into his guitar playing in all the work he does. I've a little booklet at 
home which describes his style which I may bring in some time in the next 
week and copy some text and tab out of if you're interested.

Hi -

It might be neat to see this broken into categories.  Like, favorite albums  
for:

	rythym guitar (jazz, rock, blues)
	lead guitar (jazz, country, techno-high-speed, blues)

Things that probably aren't whole albums:

	best guitar sound (clean, dirty...)
	cool guitar effects

A grouping like this might be really useful if one was looking for an album of  
a certain type (like really cool country licks, for example).

>aash

  I didn't mean that the main thrust of suspended chords was that they didn't
have 3rds.  But I've never seen a "sus" chord that had a third.  Where did
you see Csus written as x32011?  That looks to me like C(4) or C(11); Csus is
usually x33011 (C F G C F).  If you play it Csus as x32011, it's a good 
imitation, but it's not exactly right.  (I'll admit that I play Gsus as
320013, which has a 3rd in it, and is really G(4); it's much easier than 
trying to get your fingers on 330013 or 330033.)
  An example: lots of my sheet music has Asus9 and A(9) in it.  The difference,
note-wise, is that the A(9) has a C#, and the Asus9 doesn't.  Asus9 is
x02200 (A E A B E), and A(9) is x07600 (A A C# B E).  A number in parentheses
after the chord root indicates that you ADD that note to the chord, a number
preceded by "sus" means you remove the 3rd and add that note.
  However, often one has to sacrifice the third anyways just to play the extra
note...both D(9) and Dsus9 are often played as xx0230 (D A D E).

	I disagree.  Granted I own a high model Ibanez, but I know many
people who have the lower models, and have rarely heard a complaint.  The
Edge Tremelo (Ibanez's version of a Floyd) is my favorite Floyd ever, and it's
the same one that's found on all Ibanez models.  The only complaint that I
consider to be fairly valid is that the pickups on lower model Ibanez's are a
little thin.  I think they sound better than a lot of the pickups that they
put on Charvels, though.  Charvels tend to have very "blah" sounds: lacking
clarity and punch.  This isn't helped by the fact that the guitar itself
has only slightly more sustain than a rubberband.  You can also tell a lot
about a guitar by the way it sounds WITHOUT an amplifier.  I am quite
certain that if you listen to equivalent Ibanez and Charvel models, you will
hear how much brighter and louder the Ibanez is.

	THD and Kendrick make fine replacement speakers that emulate that

	Vox speaker in it. I decided to replace it with a 12 inch E.V. Well
	I had to move a transformer location on the chassis. Seems Fender did

	and the 12 inch is $125. Reconing will cost aprox, $35 to $40.

Wel, I reckon the verse is something like:

They may be more sophisticated than this tho, eg. F -> Fmaj7.

OK, the studio preamp doesn't sound better than the Tri-axis.  It is, however,
only a two channel unit compared with a 128 channel unit.  The Studio is 1/2
a Quad pre-amp.  One lead channel, one rhythm channel, one EQ.  Change those
ones to twos and you get a Quad Pre-amp.  The Tri-axis is a totally different
beast.  It has fully programmable controls, no Boogie Graphic EQ's and 8 basic
'sounds, that arer recreations of previous generation Boogies.  Interestingly,
the Quad and the Tri-axis list for the same price, $1200.  The Tri-axis is
the way Boogie is trying to offer the flexability of other units on the market
and still maintain their famous tone.  They have succeeded.  This is one 
awesome baby, to bad it doesn't have a programamble version of the EQ from 
their other amps.  The problem is, for me anyway, that the Tri-axis sells for 
list and I don't have a spare $1200. (Plus the money for a Simul 395 power amp.
Hey if you gotta go, go all the way!!!!)  

A better deal than all of the above is to get a Studio .22 amp and then a 
Boogie Rack Mount kit.  You get the same preamp as the studio, a great sounding
18 watt 2 EL-84 power amp and a cool Black Shadow Vintage Speaker.  
For @600 new and I am selling one to a fellow for $350 used, which seems to be
the going rate.  It is exactly the same preamp and I rememeber reading a story
that the Studio preamp was marketed because LA studio guys were using Studio 
.22's as preamps anyway.

Anyway, that I my experience.  BTW, I don't work for Boogie but wish I did!

That'll be me :-)

O.k., for those new to uuencoded stuff, the "garbage characters" should be
saved in a file, with the begin at the top (part 1 of 2) and the end at the
end (part 2 of 2), and then run through uudecode, as in 
	$ uudecode concatenated_file
which will (hopefully) give you chords14.zip, which you can then unzip,
read the documentation and finally run on your PC.
