Guitar Tuners Do they make violins with mechanic tuners like a guitar?
it seems like the whole peg tuner/fine tuning bolts is tradition over function. anyone know why they do it that way?
Basses have mechanical worm groove tuners. You've probably never had to change strings on one or you'd realize the benefits of pegs. Tuning pegs turn out to be much more convenient than worm groove tuners. It only takes about 6-7 turns to wrap around a violin string, but with a mechanical tuner it would take about 70. And if properly maintained either system will stay in tune equally as well.
There is also the matter of acoustics. Having all those extra metal bits has the potential to cause problems with unwanted rattles and sympathetic resonance.

Guitar Tuners Why do people put tape before their nut near the tuners on a guitar?
is there any benefits in doing so? or negative effects? or better yet Whats the purpose of it!
Tape? I've seen people put something over the strings like a wrist band or hair tie. Thats typically to mute unwanted noise from the strings between the nut and the tuners. Sometimes you can get overtones from that area or the area between the bridge and body if you have a string through guitar. Ive seen people put tape on the side of the headstock or on the face towards the side to stick guitar picks on it. You can use double sided tape for that.

Onboard Chromatic I was tuning my guitar and one of the strings broke, HELP!!!?
Well i've got like a $400 acoustic-electric guitar and it got all out of tune somehow when i was trying to use the onboard tuner so i had to get my chromatic tuner out and try to retune it and then one of the strings like snapped off or something from the inside and idk what to do!! I WOULD APPRECIATE ANY HELP THANKS!!
Well the string probably broke because it was getting kinda old. Buy a new set of strings just in case any other strings break. And make sure the string is put in properly
Strobe Pick What are some good Halloween decorating ideas using blacklights?
I'm having a Halloween party (adults) and among other decorations, I have two 12" blacklights. I'm trying to figure out what I can do with them that might look cool.
I have a long hallway that leads to the bathroom, and I was planning on putting a blacklight bulb in the hall light as well as using a fogger & strobe. I have one of those spiders that drops down (motion activated) that I'm going to use there as well. So I was thinking of increasing the blacklight by using one of the 12" lights in that area. I guess I'd need something else there that would pick up the effects of the blacklight, which I guess is the point of my question. Also, would a strobe do much when used with a blacklight?
You should kind of angle the bulb diagonally up, so the fog rises into it, and place the strobe Light on the ground, but make it cross the smoke from the fogger, so it kind of puts a mood in there, and the spider will really get them since their focus is on the lights. Maybe, if you didn't want to put in the spider, you can put a hand in front of the balck light or strobe light, and angle the black light to the wall.

how to play and record from a 78 rpm record?
I can modifie a record player or fit an elctric drive to a broken wind up gramaphone.
What should the angles between lines on a strobe disc be to establish it is running at 78rpm usind a 50Hz lamp.
What pick up an needle combination is best to play the record?
or should I fit a mic to the mechanical speaker on the old gramaphone? if so what angle should I regrind the used needles to?
Get yourself a 1960s record deck that has 78 speed and a crystal pick-up with a sapphire stylus. There are plenty around - try eBay. The output from the pick-up can go straight to a sound card and you can use some sound editing software to tidy it up.
