I posted this in the electronics forum but thought it wouldnt hurt tho put in hear to.

I want to be able to play through my headphones and not subject my wife to sodalities of my learning on my quadmaster.. I am looking for suggestions on the most practical way to do this. I do have a Makie 1604 soundboard but I donโ€™t want to bring it up into my den/studio because I am running out of room. I would like to continue to run my steel through my Fender Deville amp (doesnโ€™t have a headphone plug) in addition to be able to play backing tracks. I do have a new Toshiba laptop that would probably serve as a good medium. It has been some years since I have had to play with electronics and I know a lot has changed as far as what is available. I want something practical and relatively cheep. Thanks for the crash course in modern music electronics.

V/r,
Sam Mr. Green

I've never used one, but have seen "guitar trainers' for sale. They allow you to play a cd, plug your guitar in, they usually have effects, and the best part--the really big promotion was using headphones so you won't disturb anybody. Try any of the major online music stores, or post in the want to buy forum. Keep practicing.

I use a Tascam CD_GT1 to practice with CDs. If I'm practicing scales and technique, I use a Pod XT because it sounds better. I also have an old Korg Pandora that's a very portable "headphone amp with drums".
