The biggest trick with Grand Theft Auto 5 is to save the Lester Missions for last. Go thru all of the heist missions to make a good amount of money (between 15-40 million depending on your choices), then use that money tospeculate on the stock market. Each of Lester’s missions will return a great percentage and you can easily make up to about 3 billion dollars after completing them. Make sure you choose the companies below for the maximum return. Buy heavily in these companies with all 3 of your characters before starting the mission.Read More »Make Money in GTAV wth Lester

Custom Guitar Pedal Travel Case

  • by

This weekend I finally got some time to build up a project I’ve been planning for a few months now. I got enough pedals to where I just don’t have enough room for them on the pedal board I had. Also, all the wires were a pain in the ass and jumbled up. I seen a couple  examples online and they were all around $200-$500 for the size I needed. (1, 2, 3) I’ve had leftover wood from a mirror project I did a few months ago, so I planned something out more to my needs and easier on the bank account. I came up with a 19″ x  29″ hard, powered pedal board / travel case.

Chicken Picken’ and Country Guitar Basics

Chicken Picken’ is a guitar style of quick country runs and banjo style rolls. A mix of bends, double stops, slapping and popping the strings and a twangy guitar is standard for ay country tune from the beginning. These are a few licks from a youtube video I found that goes over a little lesson. Definitely something worth working on to help your picking hand and your scales. A pretty basic progression for country songs to solo over is A-D-E, which is found in a ton of hits from Lynard Skynard to Garth Brooks, Brad Paisley, Alan Jackosn, Merle Haggard, Buck Owens and so many more.Read More »Chicken Picken’ and Country Guitar Basics
