Help with Headphones

Post by Gary Peaslee »

Can anyone help recommend a good pair of headphones that I can plug directly into my steel while I practice? Also, where can I go to purchase them? Thanks!

I've never seen anything that worked very well, but perhaps someone else might have a lead.

This is simple but I find that some people have not realized it. If you have a stereo with a "Mic" input, you can plug your steel into that, run it though the stereo and back out your headphones. This way you can play with cd's, tapes, record it, or any other function that the stereo will do. Kind of nice when the wife is alseep or the neighbors are not so friendly.
