Isn't that only if the guitar isn't properly setup?

GB could provide all the specifics but as far as i know you pretty much need to block the bridge while re-stringing / tuning up a floating bridge. OR you need to be very slow and meticulous while you try tuning all 6 strings more or less at the same time. if you just try to tune like normal as you tune up one string it will pull the bridge out more and more thereby loosening the other strings and by the time you get to the last string the first one will be flat again.

I want to learn the upright bass so badly! Who needs a dance partner when you have an upright.

Anyone have any keyboard recommendations. Digital or analog synth with built in filters, oscillators, pitch bends and all that fun stuff. I like the sound of older Roland Junos. Is there anything similar to this idea for under $500?

Roland V-Synth GT - 61-Key Elastic Audio Synthesizer Keyboard

Oh, oops..didn't read the under 500 part. But this is still a pretty rad keyboard.

i play trumpet, and i wanna teach myself to play guitar, and actually i am stumbling through cause i'm tryin to learn beatles songs and improve technique. i only have a problem with slurs, so thats not a problem. i like playing trumpet because it has great range, and 1st trumpet can go pretty strong. it has different sounds depending on range.

Default The piano!

I just love the piano. However, no matter how many lessons and tutorials I've taken, I'm just not that good at it.

Unless you totally dig classical music and jazz, that's not too big of a problem. Some of the best piano parts are really simple. Take Jerry Lee for example...he just pounds the same two or three chords over and over and I think he's totally rad! It's not what you play, it's how you play it.

I like piano, and want to learn playing. But is it too late to learn? because I'm 24 now.
