About Me:
Frequently Asked Questions:
1.) What kind of guitar do you use?
It's a Washburn D30s and was purchased for $300 from Musiciansfriend.com
2.) What about the strings?
I usually use D'addario EJ16 strings. :)
3.) How do you record your covers?
I use an MXL 2001 condenser mic to to record vocals and a pretty crappy dynamic mic to record the acoustic guitar. I use two On-Stage mic stands. Both of the mics run into a Lexicon Omega mixer which runs into my MacBook and I mainly use Ableton Live to record/mix in. I use my Canon SD870is digital camera to record the video, which then goes into iMovie. Here, I mute the sound from the camera and put the audio from the mics in. I export on Medium settings (640×480, .m4v) and upload to YouTube!
4.) How much did all of that cost?
Guitar: $300
MacBook: $1250
Mic Stands and Dynamic Mics: $45
Condenser Mic: $60
Audio Interface: $100
Cables, etc: $35
5.) You should try out for American Idol!!
I appreciate the support, but I don't think that my style is what American Idol is looking for. Plus, there are many, many better vocalists than me on YouTube, who I think have, and deserve, a much better chance than me. :)
6.) Do you take song suggestions?
Sure, I'm always open to taking suggestions, but I can't guarantee that I'll get to them. Right now, I can't even get to the ones I want to do. :/
7.) Where did you learn how to play guitar and/or sing?
I have never taken any guitar or vocal lessons, although I wish I would have when I was younger. I started teaching myself how to play guitar a little over two years ago, and started singing about one year ago.
8.) Why do you use a capo on some of your videos that only use barre chords?
Good observation! I just use it to lower the action on the strings, thus making it easier to play the barre chords. :)

AhrenBa I really apologize for the lack of covers lately. My voice is still messed up and I can't sing. I think I may have to see a doctor soon. I've waited so long. :'(
