How do you walk down on a guitar?
Assuming I have understood your question correctly, walking down on a guitar basically means stepping down note by note at a steady pace while playing. Similar to walking down some stairs. It does not refer to any particular notes or scales, just as long as the notes generally move downwards. Or if you are talking about a particular song, it will refer to the one used in that song.
Who plays a twelve string guitar?
Between none and 12 depending on how many are missing!
And that's not as daft as it sounds. An unusual but not unheard-of technique is to remove the octave (usually e, a and d, sometimes also g) strings from a 12-string, leaving only the unison strings and resulting in a 9-string or 8-string guitar. This retains the chorused sound of the higher strings but removes the octave doubling of the lower strings.
Another technique is known as "Nashville tuning". This can also be done on a six-string but there is no reason why it shouldn't be applied to a 12-string. It consists of using ONLY the octave and unison strings from a 12-string set, giving a 6-string with a re-entrant tuning which can be used to double a conventional rhythm part, or to produce a less bass-heavy chordal part.

How do you fix dead guitar string?
By this i take it that you mean the "jack plug to jack plug lead" This depends on how it is broke, if it has stopped working then chances are there is a break in the wire somewhere, check the jack plugs at each end if they have a screw type jack plug, unscrew the cover and check for one of the wires being off, if it is, then it needs to be soldered. If the jack plugs are still wired up then the break is in the lead, if you plug the guitar into the amplifier and feel along the lead whilst striking the string you may be able to locate the area of damaged flex and cut the lead back. On the other hand, if the lead has moulded jack plugs then its not really worth repairing as it can cost more for new jack plugs and then its trial and error, you can cut off the jack plugs solder the new ones on, however, if it turns out there is a break elsewhere in the lead then this will have been for nothing.

Is fender good for acoustic guitars?
Yes the fender guitars have great quality, as long as you buy one made in the USA or Mexico. China and Japan make fender squire guitars but they are cheaply made and don't last as long. If you are looking at buying a fender guitar then look at a Mexican or American stratocaster. That is one of the best guitars that fender makes and the best places they make them. The Mexican strat. will last you about 3 to 5 years and the USA strat. about your whole life. Hope that helps.
I agree, definitely go for a strat

I have been an eBay user for years and find that almost everytime, the price settles to it's real worth when the bidding is over.
What is the timbre of a guitar?
The timbre of a guitar is guitar timbre. I'm not sure you know what timbre is. It's the sound an instrument or voice has, so it can't be described, only heard. So, whichever guitar you have, the way it sounds is its timbre. On the same pitch your singing voice and your guitar, or your flute or whatever, sound different than each other, that difference is the timbre. Timbre cannot be described in numerical terms.
How long does it take to get to grade 8 on a calssical guitar?
There are different grading systems, so grade 8 may not mean the same thing to everybody. Talent and dedication vary a lot from person to person, too, so any amount of time is just an estimate. Most grading systems are based on an average student with a reasonable amount of work advancing one or two grades per year, so we might guess 4 to 8 years, As long as you are making progress, don't worry about time so much.

1992 Guitar of The Year
In 1992 Dana Sutcliffe and his partner were awarded a US utility patent for the guitars functional cutaway design.
The Alvarez Dana Scoop is starting to appear in guitar history books.
The original prototype looked identical to the first production models except it had a reverse headstock and a steeper angle to the neck joint.
The President of St. Louis Music (Alvarez is a division of St. Louis Music) had the creative vision to bring the product to the market place.
The Alvarez product manager gave the guitar its name "The Scoop" after the instruments radical cutaway. The original name was the "Gash Guitar".
Patent Pending production of the guitar was started in January of 1991. Two of the instruments had maple necks and rosewood fingerboards. All the bodies were made of sugar maple and featured Floyd Rose Licensed tremolos. The electronics featured two Dana designed pickups in a hum bucking single coil configuration. These ran in series with Dana's Harmonic Enhancer electronics. Each instrument has one Volume and one Enhancer control.
In 1992 the Alvarez Dana Scoop was voted "Guitar of Year" by Music and Sound Retailer Magazine. This coveted industry award is presented yearly during the Winter NAMM Show.
The LA and Nashville Scoops were designed to conform to a more conservative guitar buying public. The smaller size Scoop was to accommodate the larger body mass. Even though the patent was granted on the basis of having improved access to the strings at the base of the neck. The true function of the Scoop was that it improved the instruments sustain and resonance properties. It eliminated phase cancellation between the neck and body resonance. The guitar body size determined the size of the Scoop.

Where are dean acoustic guitars made?
I called the company directly with the same question. Dean says all acoustic guitars are "sourced" (I guess that means "made in") from China and Korea. Just like everybody else when spending less that $1,500 or so. Yes, even Taylor, Breedlove and Martin. The US labor market can't produce an american made instrument unless the list price is above $1,500

How do i break up with my wife?
First ask your self if you really want to brake up with her. if you still want to then talk to her. if she doesnt feel the same way then try and sort things between you, you never know, you might fix things and love her again. If all fails or you simply want to end it then just tell her the truth, and why you feel you shouldn't be together, but don't be mean about it. for example if you are intrested in another girl don't say "your boring me, and i love her now", say "I'm really sorry but i don't think we should be together anymore, my feelings are starting to widen for other people, and i don't want to have a fake relationship." WHAT EVER YOU DO NEVER END IT WITH A GIRL OVER A ONLINE MESSENGING WEBSITE, OR BY SMS TEXT. You should really tell her face to face, but if you are finding that to hard then do it over the phone. GOOD LUCK.
