Ideas of my subject for investigating
My first idea: how to make a statocaster
My first idea was to investigate the proses of making a guitar. The guitar that i though would be a good idea to concentrate on is the strat. The reason that i thought this would be a goo idea to concentrate on is because it is probably the most the fender star is probably the most guitar in rock history and to this day the strat is the most commonly used guitar. The reason it is the most commonly used guitar is because it has a 5 way pick-up select witch means it is very versatile and you can get a lot of sounds out of it, right from the bright twangy sounds of the bridge pick-up to the warm sound of the bridge pick-up and a combination of all of them.
There are a lot of good recesses that i can uses on the wed internet to study the process of making a strat.

Songwriting
My second idea: writing songs (song writing)
My second idea is song writing. I thought that this would be a good thing to study because I want to be a songwriter. I am applying or a song writing cores for next year so it would be very sensible to study it so that I know as much as possible going into the cores next year. It is also a god topic because I know that there are lots of fantastic recesses and websites of the internet about song writing that would be great for me to use to gather evidence. It also means I could study all of the different genres of witch songs have been written in.

One of the things that i want to look at in my songwriting studys is a singer-songwriter called benjamin frances leftwich. The reason tat i want to do this is that i love the way he rights his songs. I think the lyrics and the melodys are beutiful. He has been a huge insparation to me as a songwriter. I have his album and i am doing to deconstruct some of the songs of his album and see how he has writen them.
Leftwich began playing at the age of ten and grew up listening to The Rolling Stones and Nina Simone; later discovering Nick Drake, Bob Dylan, and Elliott Smith. He cites Arcade Fire, Ryan Adams, and Bruce Springsteen as inspirations- Wikipidia

I know lots of songwriters to interview too.
Overview.
I am going to study songwriting. I am going to look at how my favorite songwriter makes songs and look who it is who inspired him. I am going to research on the internet and i am going to interview and ask questions to outer songwriters that i know. I decided that this would be a far better subject to investigate than making guitars because it really dose interest me. And i know a lot of songwriters where as i don't know anyone who makes guitars.
