Well, I'm sure you COULD technically do it, I just don't want to. XD Nylon strings and classical guitars are like peanut butter and jelly. XD

(:O:O there's a huge difference in sound! :O)

I've been there a few times. I HATE it. The people there are so unbelievably rude.

I went in asking if they had the grade 8 RCM book, and their reply was "sorry, we don't carry shit."

Are you guys referring to Karaoke Closet? I went there to get some new strings, I had an awkward time in that store. Went for Ebay instead. XD

I think that's the name. It's right beside Boston Pizza.
The people there are just horrible. ._.

I've been in there once too. They carry nothing good. All they have are shitty knock-off guitars. And a VERY limited string selection. I was like WTF why would you even carry this shit.

[FONT='Tahoma','sans-serif']Hey guys,[/font]
[FONT='Tahoma','sans-serif']it was difficult to find out how to book a room so I was unable too. So we will have to wing it. We will meet in GSB lobby (1st Floor) at 3:00 pm tomorrow. There are 2 rooms in GSB that are usually empty. However, I do not know if there will be classes in these rooms at 3:30 or not, so be ready to up and leave quickly if need be. [/font]
[FONT='Tahoma','sans-serif'][/font]
[FONT='Tahoma','sans-serif']What this lesson will contain:[/font]
[FONT='Tahoma','sans-serif']1. Meeting the members: a good way to start this group rolling, so it can take off[/font]
[FONT='Tahoma','sans-serif']2. Parts of a guitar: The names and use of some the of main parts of a guitar. The strings and how to tune them.[/font]
[FONT='Tahoma','sans-serif']3. Some quick notation, that will be used to show how to play chords, scales etc... (tablature)[/font]
[FONT='Tahoma','sans-serif']4. Some simple chords to practice throught the reading week.[/font]
[FONT='Tahoma','sans-serif'][/font]
[FONT='Tahoma','sans-serif']So this lesson will not give information on autoflange, pinch harmonics, potentiometer swapping, so if this is what you feel you need to know, the first lesson isn't the right place [/font]
[FONT='Tahoma','sans-serif'][/font]
[FONT='Tahoma','sans-serif']However, I am assuming that this group contains people just starting guitar, so we are starting at the basics. However, if this is not the case, we can adjust the lesson accordingly.[/font]
