Tascam MP-GT1 Guitar Trainer
For learning new songs and practice between band rehearsals I use my Tascam MP-GT1 MP3 Guitar Trainer. This walkman-sized unit is built to last having an aluminum back and sides and contains a 1Gb memory for storing up to around 240 songs in MP3 format.
Squier Musicmaster Bass
I have recently sold a very nice Squier Vista series Musicmaster bass in a beautiful vintage shell pink colour.
The Grove Tavern
We were very pleased to hear that the Grove Tavern opposite South Wimbledon tube station is up and running again as a music venue. The pub is now managed by Broken Guitars Ltd and also houses the Abbey Music School & Surrey Strings.
GarageBand
I’ve had my MacBook a few months and this week I had a look at GarageBand. On first glance it looks like a very basic program, but once you discover some of the more sophisticated features such as the virtual guitar amp modelling, click & drag EQ with frequency analysis, and piano roll editing it is an absolute joy to use and very flexible.
