Does anyone have any cheap tips or tricks for stuff/accessories that would normally cost alot?
E.g. Instead of buying a guitar stap with locks, I just tied/wrapped rubber bands on the pegs over the straps.
Or, instead of buying a proper distortion pedal (I play bass), I just plugged in an FM transmitter through the amp, and played through the radio... |

A capo (short for capotasto, Italian for "head of fretboard", also called a fret lobster or cheater bar) is a device used for shortening the strings, and hence raising the pitch, of a stringed instrument such as a guitar, mandolin or banjo. |
