  Will my acoustic guitar sound better if I replace the strings? What are other reasons that it could sound terrible ?

  Favourite answer:

  Unless something has happened to the guitar or your playing it must be the strings.

  What is the purpose of changing strings on the acoustic guitar?

  Favourite answer:

  Because strings degrade quite quickly even if the guitar isn't actually played. Just being under tension and exposed to the air has an effect on them. Obviously if the guitar is played then friction wears the strings out and the windings fill up with dead skin cells and sweat.

  Over time wear might mean that the strings don't play in tune, they will sound dead, feel unpleasant and eventually break.

  How old is to old to be a stripper?

  Please don’t be rude. But I’m 24 and I love being an exotic dancer. I don’t have any children and I don’t plan on setting down until I’m at least 30. All my friends are settling down but I really don’t want that for my life anytime soon. I really don’t want to look like the old women who can’t give up on her youth. What do you guys think is a good age to stop?

  What is the difference between storytelling and read aloud?

  Favourite answer:

  Storytelling

  usually

  is reciting a story from memory

  and can also include making up a story on the spot.

  Reading aloud

  is obviously easier

  because the words of the story are there in front of you.

  Did Elvis use make up?

  Favourite answer:

  Like anyone who appears ions on film, he would have worn makeup to keep his skin colors looking natural under studio lights.  he probably also used some to enhance his look so that his features would stand out better when he was on a stage in front of a large crowd.  Most performers do.

  Why should I be paying billions of dollars to study music theories when YouTube gives it away for free?

  They're only theories anyway. We've got BachScholar on YouTube. The People's Pianist. Makes the music easy and approachable. And the pandemic has now shown us how unnecessary college is. It's a multi billion dollar business in frivolity.

  Can I get more fingers put on?

  SO. I play guitar, bass, and a little bit of keyboards (piano) but I was thinking if people can get new noses and heart transpalnts, can I get a couple more fingers? It would make me a better guitar/keys player and hell people may pay to see it live. Like theres the guitar guy who got 14 fingers?

  What is it like to study performing arts?

  Favourite answer:

  Hard to get a place at a good school/college, many years of very hard work if you did get a place, followed by many years of getting unpaid experience afterwards, and then decades of fighting to get even a tiny role in any professional production.

  Does it make sense to gift a guitar to a 16 yr old trumpet player?

  My grandson plays trumpet and enjoys playing with his dad.  His dad also has a guitar and I wonder if they would enjoy playing guitar together without asking them.  They are both genius types.  Not sure if I would be able to return it if he really doesn't have the interest and thinks he never will.

  Do I need a pick to play guitar?

  I taught myself guitar, and I’ve always just finger picked without a pick. 

  I’m starting up guitar again :) I’m trying out some new sounds. But after watching many YouTube videos I’ve noticed all of them use a pick. Should I try to learn how to use a pick? Or should I still be able to produce a close enough sound with no pick ?
