If he actually "grew up" playing Halo, any of them, then he's a heck of a lot younger than he looks. If he means that he started playing games when Halo came out, then I can't really consider him a...

I think I love you.

Seriously though, that sounds awesome, and I love the D-I-Y attitude of the whole thing. Just great, man.

I just wanna chime in and say that fingerpicking can be just as fast or faster than using a pick, but you have to learn proper fingerpicking technique. Using your thumb as a pick is not it. Mark...

You could actually buy an octave pedal and make it sound like a bass. It wouldn't sound like a GREAT bass, but it would sound like a bass. Jack White did it all the time in The White Stripes. See the...

Impossible because Microsoft and Sony won't allow that, but even if it was possible it would still spoil the sense of progress that comes with having goals. If you meant in-game achievements as...

Guitar: Hard, but I can play Expert on about 50% of the songs. I prefer songs to be hard enough to be a challenge, without being so difficult that I can't goof off while I'm playing. That's why I'm...

Please be aware that no guitar sounds good through a bad amp. I can barely tell a difference between my Les Paul and my Telecaster when I'm playing on my first amp (an older Marshall MG). The...

Wonderful! This is one of my favorite songs, and, while I already know most of it, no two tabs agree on how to play it. I'm excited to see how this version does it. I'm inclined to believe Harmonix's...

I've never heard of a guitarist so good that he wouldn't have to pause a bit and listen to learn someone else's song.

I can't think of any reason why the nut couldn't be replaced, and the bridge re-intonated. It should be a fairly simple procedure as long as the nut doesn't have any electronics IN it (and it really...

Yeah, you have to play the right fingering. Kind of like how, if the game tells you to play orange but you play yellow because you prefer it, you lose points

EDIT: to be helpful, I'll add this --...

Maybe a couple weeks, maybe a couple months. It takes a long time to build up noticeable ones, but not very long at all to build up enough callous that your fingers don't hurt after you play for a...

If you upload "More Than A Feeling" we will be best friends for life.

This has been discussed. While it seems like an excellent idea, lots of Rock Band players (LOTS) either don't have their consoles connected to the internet or aren't comfortable buying things online...

Guitarist here: every hardtail (no whammy bar) bridge I know of is ambidextrous. The Squier has a hardtail bridge. You would only need to change the nut and the strap button location (just drill a...

Any RB4 info would be worth it to me. As exciting as a RB3 unlock? No, not in the short-term. But long term? Way more exciting.

I wouldn't buy it and I didn't like the show, but it wouldn't really be fair of me to come in here and spew negative opinions. I'm just not the target audience for this sort of stuff.

I don't...

Ocarina of Time changed my life by bringing me closer to art than I'd ever thought possible, driving me to spend my adult life trying to create it for others. Rock Band, as a series, is as close as...

One issue at a time...

"I" is a well thought out idea and is worthy of discussion (even if rhythm game combat typically stinks),
"can't" is valid and a common talking point on the forum and more...

Ditto. Just wanted to stop in and say that, ever since I've gotten my keyboard, there is no band I've wanted pro keys parts for more than Freezepop.

Especially since we know they play a RB...
