Have you ever consider using DI box for your live performances, or your recordings? what is EXACTLY a DI Box anyway? does it really a tool for better sound output? all these questions are being asked around here and there, but actually, for me, i can't hear the differences,at least, not with passive DI box. okay, so what's the point in this post anyway? well, i tried to read and summarized all sources i can get which brought me to some conclusions. yes... (one of stupid things I've done is writing something i don't actually know, but here it is)  DI box is important it regains the lost signal of your guitar sound. it converts high-impedance , line level, unbalanced output guitar signal to a low-impedance microphone level balanced input to mixers. the low impedance allows the signal to be sent over long cable runs with significantly less signal loss. .... the lower impedance (around 600 ohms is normal) allows an insignificant load to the input of a mixing con...

Happy New Year 2014! yes, i congratulate all of guitarists who still fight for their music until today, i hope all of you stand still with me. Well, this post will be the continuation for my post: Fun in basic, Major Chords ,  and now is about the minor chords on guitar. FYI: these minor chords follow the natural minor scales, so as you can see the A natural minor scale notes are A(1) - B(2) - C( ♭ 3) - D(4) - E(5) - F( ♭ 6) - G( ♭ 7) - A(higher octave) and its interval is w-h-w-w-h-w (w = wholenote, h = halfnote) Basically Minor chords consist the root, the flat-third and the fifth note. if you have an A minor chord, that would be A as the first note (root),  C as the flat-third note( ♭ 3rd), and E as the fifth note. A  (root),  C( ♭ 3rd), and E (5th)  so, what you have to do next to get B minor chords is write down the B natural minor scale which is B(1) - C#(2) - D( ♭ 3) - E(4) - F#(5) - G( ♭ 6) - A( ♭ 7) - B, see the bold font, and you'll get ...
