I shamelessly stole this off the CO boards on the Wizards forum website here. So - much acknowledgements to PhoenixInferno & LordOfProcrastination. It looks useful, and hopefully this can help solve the Gear - Guitar forum here a bit.
Summary
Main
Whenever you want ask for help, remember these three things:
share with us, put in an effort, and follow through.
1) Share with Us
In order to help you to answer your question, we have to know what's involved. Here are some things to consider:
* What equipment are you using? Guitar? Amp? Pedals?
* What musical influences are you interested in?
* What setting are you talking about? Home? Gig? Recording?
* Are there any special requirements you want?
* What specifically you are looking for help with?
This list is far from comprehensive, so the more specific details you can provide, the better.
2) Put in an Effort
Be polite, use good grammar and punctuation. Check if what you want is already out there on the Guitar Forum - there's a very good chance it was answered a short while ago. 3 pages is about 3 days worth of posts. Use these valuable resources to answer your questions before starting a new thread:
Links:
* Guitar Gear Sticky
* Where to get these products from these Brands?
* ALL things regarding GUITAR, PICKUP, STRINGS
* Gear Review Section
* SOFT.com.sg Search Function
If you can't find what you're looking for after you've been through these great references, go ahead and post a new thread.
Keep in mind that the best form of help is self-help. If you need a price quote - ask the relevant authorities. Call them up - don't be shy!
Try out as much as possible on solving your question by yourself - you might be surprised at what you do know, and you will receive more focused advice for your question. (So long as you keep away from 120/240V electronics.)
If you do the work, you'll reap the rewards!
3) Follow Through
Don't bump the thread every 20-60 minutes.
Instead, check in and comment on people's suggestions, ask for clarification about things you don't understand, and generally guide the discussion towards what you want. You're much more likely to get what you want here.
Don't be discouraged if your post doesn't get any hits immediately - others may be busy at work or school.
Don't forget to thank the people who help out with suggestions, links, and advice. They're kind-hearted volunteers and fellow guitarists, and they don't get paid for answering your questions.
