I have never actually owned an ipod till recently, though both my parents have(all 1stgens, 4 in total) all but one in the time theyve had em konked out. one will not work unless it is plugged up to power source, on is simply falling part after normal use, one simply died, and one works. I myself went with the Shuffle and its work fine since i got it. only problem is it doesnt hold alot of memory.
id go with the 2gig shuffle for best durability(ALL metal, no screen to dent. mine's held up to a great many brutalities),although not alot of mem. 2 gig is good for me though.   for now.....

have a violin, strings are certainly not E A D G, if theyre supposed to be then this Vi' is skewed. the strings are all tuned funny and one key will not stay when u turn it, it just goes rite back to "out of tune". what notes shud the strings be in and is the key supposed to stay like that to keep it on 1 note or sumn??

what im tryin to decide for here is sound. how do the pickups comparison?
i heard that the firebird can be a bit too muddy, but i like versitality.

i have tried both, in the same store, too, but cannot decide as to quiality, durability, and which one would do me better good as to overall sound quality, not price, as i can afford either.

need sum replyz
plz

I know almost every strat comes with a trem, but is the tremolo cavity a universal size/fit? for example, could you put a floyd rose licensed trem onto a strat successfully? I got a strat but do not like the trem and want to replace it it with maybe a floyd rose but i do not know if it is possible. hmm

people have been saying this is a pretty ok guitar. is it really? what are its ups and downs?

If you have a firebird out there and want to trade for  an explorer, i will gladly trade. also If you have a Rogue Herringbone 12string I will trade for an epi DR.
