[beachguy in thongs]

I've been playing for sixteen years. Started out playing Rush, a few years later, Hendrix. I, now, have an Ibanez. I can play tunes, too.

[NightProwler]

i play bass and have a hagstorm. been playin for about half a year.

i can play money, and black magic woman. and thats about it

[beachguy in thongs]

good enough, let's jam

Give it 4 years and we can play bars.

[Nochowderforyou]

I play guitar. Been playing for around 14 yrs or so.

I play a Fender '67 strat(picture). It has been passed down to me by my pops, and all of the parts are original on it except the neck, saddles, and the middle pickup. I replaced that a few years ago now with a Seymour Duncan, and sounds amazing. The wammy bar now has a wicked clown, skull head on it instead of the white piece. Old picture.

And a picture of my amp. Has 2 10inch speakers in there and is louder than a bitch. When I use to play with old band I would have to only turn her up to 4.5-5 on the volume, and the drummer was LOUDER than fuck too. There would be piles of sawdust at the end of practice uner his snare drum.

I play all kinds of music. I love playing the blues. Tons of fun when you get someone else who knows what key to play in, and what scales to jam with. I also play heavy shit, everything from System of a Down, to Corrosion O.C., Down. I like jamming out like, heavy Southern rock music. Lynyrd Skynyrd but really, really loud and with a hard kick to your balls.

Reggae as well, even some punk rock I'll bust out. Not that pussy Green Day bullshit, something fast like Pennywise or something.

Peace.

you know we all get old, or die young:eek:
if that made any sense,

before i messed up my hands i could play about anything half ass decent wasnt nothing i wouldnt try to play,my dad tuaght me how he was into bluegrass and whiskey tunes most his life
many different types of songs to play out there,
most people will play what they like to hear ,
now i cant even play anything worth a shit but my own tunes and singing just aint my thang,never was or will be,yet i do it so i can hear me later on

i create songs becuase i like to play and thats just to entertian me.


i no longer play along with anyone as i once did,dont think i could now its been so dam long,had some great freinds to jam with in the past im sure you will too,meet a few people that just blend in effortlessly with.

I took music theory in high school, a course at The College Of St. Rose, but never took band lessons growing up, so I don't read music. Well, it'd take me a long time and, hell if I know the all the symbols.
Currently, I have a wah-wah and a different pedal. I now just hook up and play, I don't even bother recording myself anymore. I used to tape myself all the time on "little tiny" cassette recorders and I'd make two-track tapes, which sounded pretty-much-like shit. Now I have Nero, to record on the computer, and I'm too lazy to do that. I will soon, though.
When I bought my first guitar, at 16 yo, it was something and a Peavey amp from the 70's, for $100's. I got three free lessons and with that the teacher taught me "Broons Bane".

It's a classical-guitar peice created by Alex Lifeson, of Rush, and you can find it off of their "Exit...Stage Left" album, released in 1981. It's a live album and "Broon's Bane" leads into a song called "The Trees", which also starts off with a classical guitar piece, although this one is easier.

And then it rocks!!!

This is the verse Geddy Lee sings while accompanying Alex finger-picking the guitar:

There is unrest in the forest.
There is trouble with the trees.
For the Maples want more sunlight.
And the Oaks' ignore their pleas.

[prplchknz]

I've just started a month ago, but it's fun. I have my dad's old classical guitar.

[3 Sheets To The Wind]

Been playing 9 years, and i play anything good (of the rock genre)

I have a Hohner acoustic guitar and an Encore electric (not the best guitars ever, but they do the job;))

My brother has a Gibson Epiphone, in black (same as Slash - G 'n' R)



I ought to practice more, i hardly ever play.. I will start playing more often starting now lol

I'm working on my theory but I have much to learn. For some good flamenco artists, check out "strunz and farah" and "al di meola, paco de lucia, and john mclaughlin"

[mellow mood]

strunz and farah rocks man

too hard for me tho lol

[BUZz UK]

here's my shizzle, i don't play many of other people's songs, i just kinda mess about, experianment and make em up....

[mellow mood]

nice collection!

[beachguy in thongs]

Mellow Mood you crack me up. :confused: :eek:

[Maui Wowie]

Holy crap lol, this thread was made before, it confused me cause all the posts looked exactly the same.

[Capt. Carl]

tele

[mellow mood]

Mellow Mood you crack me up.

why? what do u mean

and i made a "similar" thread but it was just asking who played guitar. now i wanted to share pics of our guits

its different man

and anyway, EVERY or almost every threads here are gettin the same after the months and the years

its inevitable

[mercifulstonerasta]

i play bass too, for about 4 months. i mostly play less than jake songs but no some reggae, afroman, new found glory, rx bandits and a few others,

[beachguy in thongs]

Shit, I started a thread and no one replied. We should start the CC Band?

[Az.]

i learnt to play guitar when i was 5...my teacher was an old woman who retired from teaching after about 2 about 2 years....over the last few years i have been picking up a guitar an learning the odd song here and there my main instrument i play is drums.....but on guitar i just play mostly Pink Floyd....i play a little SOAD i can play sublime, jack johnson....but its is purly for myself and for fun i have no intentions of seriously taking it up full time.....:)

[flamingskullballs]

yeah, i gotta practice more...

i dont know much theory, but it confuses the hell out of me cause whenever i play im drunk...and you all know how trying to grasp a new concept is when your drunk...

[mellow mood]

play sober ;)

[flamingskullballs]

awww, come on...we want to be resonable now mellow...dont get all these CRAZY ideas...

ive made all of my best decisions while drunk...the problem is i was very confused when i sobered up...

[Pichacho]

going into my 4th year of lessons/playing, got a washburn acoustic, and a fender mexican strat, with a cry baby, boss sd-1 overdrive and a fender pro junior amp. i play classic rock, blues, well, pretty much anything. in a band, we play anything!

hey just wondering, but is anyone here a member at www.guitarlodge.com? its a great guitar message board. im a member, but havent been there since before the summer... i suggest you all check it out!

[SomeGuy]

ive been playing about 2 years...just now getting into all that soloing and other good stuff... Pichacho, how do you like the Mexi Strat? Some people say they suck and arnt worth, while others have said they are fine... do you like it? how much dod you get it for?

[Pichacho]

wheeeeee i love my strat! plays really nice, sounds great, all original pieces, havent replaced anything. of course, if you're lookin for a high end instument, your lookin in the wrong place. it is what it is, and thats a beginner to intermediate instrument, im starting to think i want an upgrade:D I'm more of an SG person, anyways.

[lateralus]

I've been playing for nine years through an Ibanez to a Strat', and several acoustic guitars - steel and nylon. Ibanez/Crate amps. I play anything from folk to death metal depending on my mood. Lately though - as someone said above - I've been playing a lot of my own music. My best comes out with the acoustic; writing complex, mellow pieces. Playing thousands of power chords in drop d got kind of old. Bass is also a refreshing once-in-awhile thing for me, although I've never had one myself. Both great instruments. Pichacho, my dad had a nice SG. Personally I've always wanted a sunburst Gibson Les Paul though.. with a Marshall half stack haha. Never got around to buying one, though. Maybe one day. :)

[mellow mood]

yea i looked on ebay

20 000 bucks for an authentic gibson sunburst Les Paul

fuck it man seriously

i prefer to buy 20 pounds of weed instead of that haha

[yoda]

i'veb een playing for 8 years this christmas. i still have my baby, an all black gibson epiphone, and i stole my mom's squire, thats plae yellow and white. my friend's uncle described the music we play as a mix between goo goo dolls, hootie and the blowfish, and metallica. my friend loves thrash, and i'll play whatever comes to me. i would say it sounds more like softer RHCP songs like soul to squueze and under the bridge.
