There's a couple (starter) packages without amps for sale in the for sale section if you are interested. They are close to your budget

Allen, Yes, there is nothing about the burn in in the manual. However during the countless hours of researching etc before I went crazy like everyone else here (or that's what drove me crazy) and ordered everything I did find several comments in the forum about some N112s sound better than others. I...

David, I just went thru the same scenario but you have a good headstart with the music backgound. There are some good pro model guitars here on the forum resonable priced. Use the search function in different threads and you will see a pile of recommendations about starting off with a good used pro ...

Forest, I have been down the boat situation and you are spot on. It is a hole in the water where you throw money. It was fun, fishing was a passion then we moved to the desert with no lakes close. I sold the boat and reinforced my (almost as bad) motorcycle addiction since then but needed something ...

Well that is kind of what I thought also. When I called Dan again I asked about turning knobs or anything and he said just turn it on and leave it alone. I got the impression it just needed to get good and warm to get settled and the electronics get some carma or something. I agree a bit of a workou...

Like Jim Eaton sez: I already ordered the CD set Herby Wallace put together so I should be set in that regards for a while. Thanks for the idea!! I ordered the Winnie Winston book and found several great recommendations for the Jeff Newman DVD's so that will be next. The GFI and N112 arrived this mo...

Thanks for the words of encouragment!! I do plan on taking it slow but keeping after it. Having the equipment then referring back and forth to the training materials will be good so I don't get lost or ahead of the game I think. I need to understand what, why and how something is done and what the r...

Newbie here, Please reassure me I am not crazy

Well I did it, I've been intrigued by the PSG forever and just wanted one. I looked and researched and called and talked and researched some more and considered the options and past experiences in life and did it. I called SGN and talked to Bobbe and then bought his recommended package, what very ni...

newbie and I am interested

I may be interested. I do not know much about a PSG than they sound great and I want one. I was recommended to get a Carter starter by a local music store but after reading around here this may be a better way to start out and grow into. Will this piece need any repairs or anything?? What do I need ...

I have a few questions

New guy here and a greenhorn beginner. I am just starting to look for a PSG to learn on. Having read some comments on a couple starter units, this one may be a better option and seems to be a step or two or more above a starter unit and better quality. I like the pad and have been told that is a goo...
