Re: Restrung (12 replies, posted in Electric)
Working part time in a music shop, I regularly change guitar strings (cleaning, fretboard reconditioning, truss rod and intonation adjustments included) so whether it be 6 or 12 strings I am happy. However I do find nylon string guitars a little tedious because of the neat, string locking way we secure strings at the bridge but my pet hate is a guitar with a Floyd Rose system, they are a nightmare. I want to charge at least double each time I see one. Break one string ast a gig and, unless you have a spare guitar and a roady, you are in real trouble.
OK, moan over, smile and be happy .

Hi Cabb and welcome to Chordie,
Yes, you can change a song in your Songbook and, unless you copy and paste to the original, it stays only in your Songbook.

Topic: Reaper (21 replies, posted in Recording)
On Jerome's recommendation I tried Reaper but I could not find any way to import a track that had been recorded by a friend of mine so I went back to Audacity.
Is it me? Have I missed something? Or will Reaper not allow the importation of an external wave file?

I, and I know there are several others here also, who do not consider it being 'bugged' if asked for help in posting picture or anything else for that matter.
So ask away guys.... we really want to see those photos.

Topic: The Broken Doll (5 replies, posted in My local band and me)
Way back in July 2008 Phill Williams wrote a song called "The Broken Doll" which I fell in love with immediately. However Phill wrote it in Bb which is way out of my vocal range so I transposed it to G to suit my voice. Both versions and the discussion are in this thread: http://www.chordie.com/forum/viewtopic.php?id=8529
I have often sung this song and I have recorded it several times with different levels of instruments but I still prefer my original interpretation which was with just a piano accompaniment. I have, with Phill's blessing, uploaded it to Youtube: http://youtu.be/SoMLuLR6efQ
I hope you like it.
Thank you Phill. Great song!!!

I guess that ANHWIN forgot to look at our name; Chordie indicates chords.

I think your customers are talking about songster. http://www.songsterr.com/
You do have to pay for full feature, but you can get a lot of help with the online stuff also.
No it was definitely Guitar Pro which retails at

Re: Marty Robbins song "The Next Bend in the River" (6 replies, posted in Acoustic)
I am very disappointed.
Having spending over an hour re-writing this in cho-pro and deciding to check it against the song on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=irG-kUQRi14 before sending to to ´westernman´ I find that:
a/ The key is Bm not Am.
b/ The chords are wrong
c/ Two identical (and wrong) versions are already on-line at ´classic country lyrics and ´guitar party´.
Why do I waste my time???

...by the way. Most hosting sites require songs to be written in chopro for correct formatting so I have copied your work and I will return it to you in a day or two, re-written in the correct manner.

Re: Marty Robbins song "The Next Bend in the River" (6 replies, posted in Acoustic)
It is illegal to post copyright material and have had to edit your post. Sadly the problems come, not from the authors of the music, but from the publishers. They are very quick to litigate against infringements so Chordie does not host any songs, apart from the original ones written by our Members. All the songs you see are gathered from others sites on the Internet and the presentation formatting here makes it look as they from here, but they are not.
However there are sites that do accept and host songs. Please get it out there and use the link in Resources to to get it shown on Chordie.
