Little bit of fret buzz; home repair too risky?
I'm getting a little bit of fret buzz on my ESP. When this last happened, I took it in and the tech tightened the truss rod a bit. He's out sick, and I'm impatient. Is this too risky to try... |

Backing tracks through amp?
What's the best way to connect up an MP3 player into my Mesa 5:50? It doesn't have an aux input, but it does have an FX in/out. I want to be able to play some backing tracks I have to jam along with. |
