Essential Accessories For Your Electric Guitar

The first thing to get is an electric tuner. You might have the skill to tune by ear which is great. No one should just rely on using a tuner and never learn how to tune without one. The problem is that if you are playing at places there are times where it is so loud that you can't tune by ear because you can't hear the guitar. You have to have an electric tuner.

Get strap locks for your guitar. Strap locks are a way of attaching the strap to the guitar through a system that ensures that it will not fall. It will bolt onto the guitar through ball bearings holding it no matter how much it moves or how much weight is hanging from the guitar. This is a great way to protect your guitar from being damaged.

Get a practice amp with a headphone jack. Not all times you can play with your large amplifier. Having a headphone jack is even better because you can plug in headphones and practice while not disturbing others.

A mutli effects peddle is something you might consider buying. This will let you play many different effects at the same time. The advantage of this is that you will sound nicer when you play and it can make playing your guitar more fun.

Buy a hard shell case for your guitar especially if you take it around with you a lot. This is needed because it will protect your guitar and hold much of your gear inside of it like a peddle, picks, your strap, and your tuner. It is nice to have everything all in one place that is protected.

The Benefit of Music

Research has shown that music has a profound effect on your body and psyche. In fact, there’s a growing field of health care known as Music Therapy, which uses music to heal.

Those who practice music therapy are finding a benefit in using music to help cancer patients, children with ADD, and others, and even hospitals are beginning to use music and music therapy to help with pain management, to help ward off depression, to promote movement, to calm patients, to ease muscle tension, and for many other benefits that music and music therapy can bring.

This is not surprising, as music affects the body and mind in many powerful ways. There are some of effects of music, which help to explain the effectiveness of music therapy:

Music with a strong beat can stimulate brainwaves to resonate in sync with the beat, with faster beats bringing sharper concentration and more alert thinking, and a slower tempo promoting a calm, meditative state.

Also, that the change in brainwave activity levels that music can bring can also enable the brain to shift speeds more easily on its own as needed, which means that music can bring lasting benefits to your state of mind, even after you’ve stopped listening.

With alterations in brainwaves comes changes in other bodily functions. Those governed by the autonomic nervous system, such as breathing and heart rate can also be altered by the changes music can bring.

This can mean slower breathing, slower heart rate, and an activation of the relaxation response, among other things. This is why music and music therapy can help counteract or prevent the damaging effects of chronic stress, greatly promoting not only relaxation, but health.

Music can also be used to bring a more positive state of mind, helping to keep depression and anxiety at bay. This can help prevent the stress response from wreaking havoc on the body, and can help keep creativity andottimism levels higher, bringing many other benefits.

Music has also been found to bring many other benefits, such as lowering blood pressure (which can also reduce the risk of stroke and other health problems over time), boost immunity, ease muscle tension, and more. With so many benefits and such profound physical effects, it’s no surprise that so many are seeing music as an important tool to help the body in staying (or becoming) healthy.

With all these benefits that music can carry, it's no surprise that music therapy is growing in popularity.
