Unleash the big haired guitarist inside (Poison will be so jealous)!

One of the things that has been taking up my time as of late is getting back on my "ax". Oh yeah baby, a 30 year old launching a garage band and picking up chicks...schweet!

The guitar is no tamborine my friends so its gonna take a little learnin'. Sure you could drop a few hundred dollars and have "Esteban" teach you his classic guitar ways through the miracle of DVD but who wants to start their rocker career like that. Instead, let me suggest the Tascam MP-GT1. Its a portable MP3 player that's also a guitar trainer which can help you learn how to play your favorite songs so you will be "Starway to Heaven" ready for that Zeppelin cover band.
The GT1 (yeah, like I'm gonna type that long name over and over) has a tuner, metronome, and rechargeable battery. The device is about the size of an ipod so its easy to take anywhere. The GT1 lets you slow down music so you can follow along or even completely remove the guitar part from a song so you can focus on getting it down. You can even loop said parts so you can get the rythm of the song and get your riff on.

The GT1 can store up to 240 songs with its onboard memory, uses a high-speed USB connection to load up MP3s and charge the built-in battery (giving you about 9-hours on a charge but an optional power supply is also available). Access to your tunes is easy with a data wheel, buttons and a graphical LCD display.

Aw yeah, I gotta go practice my Nickelback.

That's so much better than having to pause and replay over and over. Hopefully the price will come down once it's been on the market for awhile.
