This is totally amazing!
This is 1:45 a.m. here and I was just practicing with my electric guitar and headphones plugged into POD X3 Live and my neighbor came to complain about the ticking of my picks on my unplugged electric guitar... Incredible! Did anyone have this level of problem with neighbours? I know we guitarists can be a pain in the *** for neighbours, so I gave up practicing with amp at home long ago, and agreed to play acoustic only in certain hours of the day. But unplugged electric guitar??? Shall I stop typing at GMC forum cause I hit the keyboard too hard??? -------------------- my "Thank you GMC!" video

Well I have cool neighbors , they never complain (I live in apartment building) and I practice bass on amp all the time (though on lower volume , but its loud enough to hear me through window outside ) ...
I have other problem though , when my parents sleep I can't practice because noise from just fingers hitting the strings disturbs them I'm typing this post now quietly as possible But that is just funny to disturb neighbors from unplugged guitars (sound goes through walls.. ) -------------------- For GMC support please email support (at) guitarmasterclass.net

My neighbours hate me
We used to practice with the band in the living room. Cant count how many times i've received phonecalls with threats that they shall call the police. But they cant because we were well under the legal decibel level and we stopped playing quite early in the evening. It wasnt in an apartment building though, probably other rules for that. -------------------- Guitars: Schecter Stiletto Classic, Jackson SLSMG, Ibanez RG-380 Japan, Gibson Les Paul Studio

Neighbour: I have a complaint, my neighbour plays the electric guitar in the middle of the night!
Landlord: Oh, that's awful, how loud is he playing? Neighbour: Unplugged but we can hear when he pick the strings. Landlord: ? it's a bit over sensitive. Some walls are thin like paper bur come on. Maybe your could meet them half way? Your night guitar could have 009 or 008 string while they agree to stfu. Some neighbours will never stop complaining, it's like their only bright moments in life.

My building is just ground floor, 1 room apartments, and yes the wall is thin like paper . And now that is gettign to summer most of have windows opened...
But still, I was simply puzzled when she knocked my door. Even if it is audible, I can't barely imagine how it would be a problem (unless she has superhearing ). Even considering I was playing Thrash metal rhythm in 010 strings... (She should hear the nice palm-muting treadplate sound I had in my headphones ) My cable modem is installed on the wall to her side, but I guess I will just move things around and use a longer ethernet cable, to practice with GMC. Never heard a word from the neighbor in the other side... The funny thing is that we have 2 guitar players in the building. She lies just in between This post has been edited by Gus: Apr 28 2008, 10:06 AM -------------------- my "Thank you GMC!" video
