Pro Staff Classic

best serve and volley racket?

Im looking for a good serve and volley racket, I'm thinking about the pro staff classic 6.1 18x20. Good choice? Or whats a good recommend to try it one?

The Wilson K Pro Staff 88 has been known to be a great serve and volley racquet. The K Pro Staff 88 is a remake to the classic Wilson Pro Staff 85 Pete Sampras used back in the day. (Pete actually uses the K Pro Staff today). Many reviews have recommend the K Pro Staff as being a great serve and volley stick. I have also heard that the Wilson K Six.One Tour 90 is also a great serve and volley stick.

Guitar Sheet Music And Guitar Tab... Which One Is Better?

Being able to read guitar sheet music can prove an invaluable asset in today's market. We all know that becoming a pro guitarist means entering a very competitive field. You need every advantage you can get, and then some. Before we go any further let's first answer one basic question: isn't being able to read guitar tabs good enough? If you're looking to make a name for yourself or earn a living as a guitar player then the answer would be "no". This by no means negates the importance of tab, but in a world that is often oversaturated with guitar players, knowing how to read guitar sheet music can make the difference between success and failure. Let's break things down so we can understand them better.

Guitar Tab

While tablature or tab seems to be a rather recent invention that came along with the electric guitar, the truth is that it has been around for hundreds of years. Even before the invention of the instruments we know today as "guitar", we see examples of tablature being used usually with fretted instruments such as the lute. Examples of tab in the Western world today date as far back as the 1300's. In Asia tabs was used even before that.

In today's world guitar tab is composed of six lines that represent the six guitar strings, four in the case of the bass guitar on which numbers are placed which correspond to the frets on the guitar. Most tabs, tablature, tab formats today do not show you the rhythm. The information presented gives you a clear picture of what strings and frets should be played. The tablature format does not give you information in regards to the notes (pitches) that are being played.

Sheet Music

The sheet music for guitar on the other hand provides you with rhythmic as well as note (pitch) information. This is very important becauseit is like getting a detailed blueprint of a hotrod car. It allows you to see "inside" and understand exactly how the parts work. This is fantastic because you can use this information to fix your hotrod if it breaks down, or build yourself a new one. In much the same way, knowing how to read sheet music allows you to understand and break things down, analyze your favorite artists or composers and use those techniques when building your own material, songs.

The ability to "see" inside the music gives you a huge advantage by allowing you to manipulate and direct the musical flow of your ideas in such a way as to achieve maximum impact. To put it plainly, the ability to understand sheet music will allow you to create and juggle musical ideas with skills far beyond what other musicians posses.

In reality, I don't think that all can be reduced to a question of guitar tablature versus notation. Traditional guitar sheet music does have its problems when it comes to marking strings and frets to be used. Traditional notation for the guitar does allow for the string to be identified. This, when used in conjunction with the indicated note gives you the fret number. However this tends to fill up the visual space making the notation much harder to read and follow. A combination of sheet music with tablature attached seems to be the best answer. Notation will also allow for the indication of the finger that needs to be used for certain note.

While a combination of notation and tablature will yield the best results, we will focus more on sheet music in this article because of the simple fact that most guitarists know how to read tablature, so it's the learning of sheet music notation that will set you apart from the rest of the herd.

Learning to read notation... hell or heaven sent

If you understand the benefit of being able to read sheet music but are intimidated by the look and feel of sheet music notation, then take a deep breath and relax because always seem worse than they are. I know the feeling of looking at notation and feeling like you are looking at ancient hieroglyphs. In truth music is not nearly as complicated as it seems at first glance. It just takes a little patience and perseverance to learn but the results are definitely worth it.

You might be thinking that you will never be able to crack the code of notation. Guess I'll just have to prove to you that it's not nearly as difficult as you may think by showing you some notation basics right here and now.

Say hello to the musical notes

Sheet music is usually written on staff made up of five lines. You can write notes either on the line or in between the lines. One easy way to remember the notes that are on the lines of the staff is by recalling the following acronym: Every Good Boy Does Fine (E G B D F). This corresponds to the notes on the lines of the staff as read from the bottom up. In order to remember the notes that are in this space is between the lines, just remember FACE (F A C E as read from the bottom up). So now, if you have to tell me what note resides on the fourth space of the staff, as read from the bottom up, you can easily think of FACE and figure out that E is the note we were looking for. There you have it, less than a minute and you already know all the notes that are on the staff. If you just put a blank staff in front of you and quiz yourself over what note lies on a particular line or space, you'll soon be able to recall them without thinking of the acronyms listed.

Final note

So as you can see learning how to read music is not that difficult, and while it may take a little bit of time to take it all in, the benefits are huge. Stick with it and you will soon see yourself standing head and shoulders above the crowd of guitarists out there.
