1/8th" headphones to 1/4th
I was wondering if they sold connections that converted 1/8th inch headphones to 1/4th... I have some real nice headphones but they are a 1/8th inch jack... you think my radioshack will have 'em and how much are they approximately.

Yes, they make them and they're very cheap. I'm sure Radioshack will have them.

Be very careful with your volume when playing through headphones. It is easy to damage your ears with too much volume.

BTW, they are not 1/8". They are officially called Miniature Phone Plugs, commonly called "Mini phone" and measure 3.5mm or about .141 inches. 1/8" would be .125 inches.

I've bought both a 1/8" to 1/4" and a 1/4" to 1/8" from Radio Shack - they won't cost you more than a buck or two.

The GfB&B Guitar Slide Rule
Download the PDF of the 'Guitar Chord Slide Rule', print it out, fold it together and you'll have at your disposal a very neat tool that will not only show you all the positions for the main flavors of chords, but will also teach you a very important lesson about how the guitar works... It consists of a folded sleeve and six double sided inserts, instructions for cutting it out and folding it together are included with the PDF ... it's very simple to do, and if you botch it, you can simply print it out again!
