With eJamming AUDiiO, musicians can write, rehearse, arrange, learn, practice, play and even record with each other over the Internet in real time and in sync. All they need is access to a computer, a broadband connection, an audio interface device and a microphone.

ā€œNow, Fender guitarists and bass players can plug into a G-DEC3 and get that signature Fender sound when gigging with musicians through eJamming AUDiiO," noted Alan Jay Glueckman, eJamming chairman and president. ā€œNo matter how great the distance separating players, eJamming AUDiiO instantly connects them over the Internet to a world of musicians, empowering them to collaborate, compose, record and express their creativity. The spirit of innovation thrives in both Fender and eJamming, and weā€™re very excited about the revolutionary impact that the two companies' work together will bring to music making around the world.ā€

If youā€™ve been reading this column regularly, youā€™ll know that my kids are getting older and gearing up for life after high school. Cars, insurance, tuition, and independence are really giving me agita these days! As a result, Iā€™ve been slowly selling off my large collection of guitars, amps, and effects. When Iā€™m looking for things to sell, I often find stuff I forgot I hadā€”itā€™s crazy town! Finding rare gear was such a passion of mine for so many years. I braved snowstorms, sketchy situations, shady characters, slimy shop owners, and even hurricane Sandy! If you think about it, itā€™s sort of easy to buy gear.
