Fender Electric Guitar Strings How much would a fender electric guitar sell for at a garage sale?
It's in really good condition and only been used twice. I'm gonna try to sell it with an amp and strings and the case and strap. How much should i sell it for? This is at a garage sell remember.
Well, After you buy an object, the price goes down (obviously). There are different methods at which the price (at a given date) can be figured out. If you live in Canada, visit the Canada Revenue Agency website and figure out what the Percentage is for an object like a guitar, do some math, and you'll figure out what the object is actually worth. It might be either well below, or well above what you've expected. If you don't live in Canada, I'm pretty sure there is a website like that for the States. Good luck.

There is actually a huge amount of variation in the design and construction of an electric guitar - far more than the diverse range of classical or acoustic guitars.
The variations are in a part of the guitar which might otherwise be considered as definite and absolute - the body. For an electric guitar the body itself may be hollow, as in the style of a classical or acoustic guitar. However, it could also be only partially hollow, and in many cases is entirely solid.
This is largely because of the fact that, unlike classical or acoustic guitars which rely on the hollow body of the guitar to reverberate and resonate the sound made from the string, an electric guitar relies on an electric amplifier to achieve this same resonance and sound, and the construction of the body is largely, though not entirely, irrelevant in terms of sound quality and resonance. Without the electronic amplifier and equipment connected to the electric guitar, the instrument makes very little sound on its own, and unlike an acoustic or classic guitar, cannot be played without electric amplification.
Fitted to the electric guitar are electromagnets which pick up the vibrations of the strings as movement, and this vibration or resonance is transmitted to the amplifier as an electrical signal. It is therefore the physical resonance or vibration of the string which is used to transfer a signal, and not the sound of the string being struck at all which generates the sound, or at least, not in a direct way.
In many cases the electrical signal from the electromagnetic pickup is transmitted through a cable directly to the amplifier, but in some cases this is done through radio waves, allowing the guitar to be played without any trailing cables - particularly useful for those who tend to move about a lot while playing their music. The fact that the guitar is being played without any direct cable connection to an amplifier or sound equipment should not be confused with an acoustic or classic guitar in any way - the amplifier is still necessary as the guitar on its own would make virtually no sound at all, and certainly nothing even remotely approaching that of an acoustic guitar.
Because of the fact that the signal from the electric guitar is fed electronically to the amplifier, it is often the case that other means are used to convert or modify the signal, providing extra tones, or effects that create unique voices for the guitar. Although often we tend to think of the guitar as being solely a part of rock music or pop music, in fact it has a very healthy heritage borne through the jazz and blues scene, and has managed to hold on to its status throughout these three main genres of jazz, blues and rock.
The commercialization of the electric guitar occurred in two places at pretty much the same time, with Gibson working alongside Les Paul, at the same time as the extremely well known Leo Fender was developing the commercial model of the Fender. The physical structure of the body of an electric guitar is what is most striking as it is very different from the design of an acoustic guitar. But the fret board is also quite different too, because of the height of the strings from the body of the guitar itself. In an acoustic guitar, the strings are very close to the body, so that they run very close to the edge of the hole in the center of the body, but in an electric guitar this proximity is not required for the simple reason that the body of the guitar is not used to amplify or resonate the sound produced at all.
Because the strings are further away from the body, this allows the musician to play an electric guitar in different ways from that of an acoustic or classic guitar, with techniques such as tapping or legato pull-offs being used extensively, and slurs - otherwise known as hammer-ons as well as pitch harmonics, swells of the volume and in many cases an arm which creates a tremolo effect. It is not unusual to see foot pedals being incorporated into the performance too.
Sets Washburn Acoustic I left my acoustic guitar in the closet over winter, and it's buzzing etc from being dried out. Salvageable?
Hey all,
I got a Washburn Spalted Maple Acoustic/Electric over the summer. I put it in my closet in October with full intentions of getting humidifiers etc, but it slipped my mind and I just took it out today. My apartment gets pretty dry.
My strings sound fine when I give it a strum. However, there is a buzzing sound produced from the bridge when I play any fretted note on the high E string, or any note on the 1st fret of the other strings.
If this is an issue with my guitar drying out, is this something you can reverse? Can I give it a set-up and hope for the best? Did I drop $600 on a gorgeous instrument just to screw it up through negligence?
Don't worry too much - this is most likely quite easy to fix.
And no, I don't believe this buzzing is caused by a loose brace. When a brace comes loose, you will hear a very articulate vibration from the sound board (try tapping the sound board just to make sure). Also, it there's changes to the profile of the sound board - the action will get higher, not lower. The strings will - potentially - cause the top (sound board) to lift slightly, since the loose brace will weaken the sound board.
Consequently, if the drying out has caused one or more braces to loosen (which may indeed happen), then buzzing will not be a result.
I suspect that you have experienced some minor climate changes to the neck (it is wood after all). And as a result, the neck probably has moved. In this case it has likely bowed slightly backwards (think towards you when you hold the guitar in playing position).
If this is the sole case, then it may be countered by a simple re-adjustment of the truss rod inside the neck. Do not attempt this yourself until you know how to do it. It is a very simple and straight forward procedure, but you must be proceed with care. Let an experienced person have a look at the guitar!
Another possibility is that one or more frets have come loose as a result of the neck drying out. This is not very likely on well crafted instrument, but it is possible. However, since you say that you have buzzing all the way up on the high E-string, my guess is that it's a truss rod issue.
Loose frets is also possible to fix, but more costly and quite a bit more labor intesive.
A third option is that you have gotten a "beak" in the neck. This usually occurs where the neck is joined to the body. Think of this as the neck forming more of a sharp angle at this point (where the neck and body is glued together). Such a beak may also be the result of drying wood and it is far more labor intesive and expensive to fix.
The buzzing may also be a combination of the above factors. Let us hope it is just the truss rod - something I suspect is the case. If you run your fingers carefully along the side of the neck and you feel the edge really sticking out (the ends are sharp...), then you may also have loose frets or an angled neck/body joint.
So for future reference, don't store the instrument like you have described. Hang it on a designated wall hanger if you plan to keep it out of duty for a while, and you'd be better off. Taking a look at the air humidity from time to time will definitely not hurt your guitar
If things turn out for the worse - remind yourself that you could have ruined a far more costly guitar. Even adding another zero to the $600 price would not take you to the upper region of acoustic guitars. I really don't mean to insult you, but a $600 guitar is not that expensive. I have had people ruining guitars that almost could buy you a nice, new car. One guy even watered the inside of a really expensive, vintage one. That was a $15,000 Gibson, thank you very much...

would i strum all six strings?
You only strum or pick the strings with the fret positions (numbers).
The first power chord you have there you would only strum the bottom three strings. The 2nd one you would only strum the A, the higher D (4th string) and the G.
You would strum all the 6 strings because '0' on the a tab line means open. But on the example you have given you only strum the strings with the fret positions on them (numbers.) If a line is blank (has no opens '0' or fret positions: eg. 9) don't strum or pick it.
Also the little 'o's you have at the start aren't opens. That just means repeat that bar. Two 'o's at the start usually stand for repeat. Don't get confused between opens '0' and repeat symbols (two 'o's at the start of the bar)
