Hmm - I’m not sure why this thread was moved? The product I asked about solely deals with the subjects of identification/changing/solving audio issues in recording/producing situations, in order to improve critical listening skills.
I’m sorry - this is not about perfect pitch, intervals etc!

Thanks everybody.
The subject of Golden Ears is to improve your listening skills in order to identify/solve audio problems.
Bryan – do you feel substantial changes in your listening skills that clearly are related to the course you are using?

Any knowledge here about the level and quality of Golden Ears – ear training CD-collection by Dave Moulton?

Hello Steinar Pierre (of Vintage Show) put my attention to this because of the very positive review it got in that German magazine. I’m not thinking of buying one.

Hi Tom
Welcome to the forum from a fellow danish lap steeler. If you could have access to only one steel guitar website, this one should be it. A place of great wisdom and nice people.

I tend to pitch higher when I use headphones for monitoring. Some notes are on the edge of being out of tune. I have no problems when I listen to the direct sound from the speaker. Does anybody else have to cope with such problems, or am I just wierd? I’m not pleased with this. Any advice?

There must be something unusual going on, the way you post your mp3’s. When I download your files I get nothing but the name, and when I try to stream, I get nothing at all.
I can see I’m not the only one with this problem.

FYI – be careful with celluloid and acetone. 100% pure acetone can melt the celluloid complete and make it disappear. 60/40 % acetone/water (% depends on weather conditions) will in a couple of hours soften the celluloid without harming it.

Terry – I’m equally impressed and inspired. When I see this beautiful little “machine” of yours, I sure wish I had the tools for working with metal. I like your way of thinking. Very innovative and very inspiring! Pearl and shiny aluminium – nice combination.

I have an offer to buy a ‘65 Fender Super Reverb, all original – what is your opinion as lap steel amp? – I play a Fender Deluxe 8 and one homebuilt.

I’m watching the DVD ”On The Night” with Dire Straits on my computer right now. A fantastic concert! – Even better , I was there - “On The Night” – 13 years ago, 20 meters in front of the stage. Mark Knopfler right in front of me, Paul Franklin to the left on a podium. Right now I’m back in the crow...

Denny – I sure would like to hear whatever critique you may have – I could only benefit from that, should I ever get the idea of building another guitar. Although it can only be on concept and layout as I’m not gonna send this piece of wood to Hawaii for a hands on test http://steelguitarforum.com/s...

Thank you everybody for all the nice comments. I built this guitar because I could use a second lap guitar for experiments with different tunings, and I just thought I would share it with you. I am really honoured by the fact that someone would want to purchase my guitar. I never thought of this as ...

I finished this homemade lapsteel a couple of weeks ago. The dark wood is bubinga and the bright wood is mable. The body is hollow. 22 1/4 inch scale. The PU is a gift from my good friend Henning Kock. It has a warm and jazzy sound with a fine sustain. At the moment it’s tuned Leavitt. http://jbl-da...

No problems - very much appriciated.

Hi
Before ordering Leavitt material, I would like to try out the tuning. All links for Leavitt tuning tabs I have tried turns out to be dead.
Can someone help with tabs that show the potentials of this tuning?

Thanks in advance

Danny Gatton shows this 3rd and 7th approach in the beginning of his video ”Strictly Rhythm”.

Last year I bought a guitar from a guy in Aurora. It was shipped by USPS April 19th and it didn’t turn up at my address until June 9th. The paperwork showed that it had been held up in Danish costums for almost 4 weeks. This could be a similar situation. I wouldn’t give up hope.
