Any guitar players on here?
« on: January 11, 2010, 08:31:29 PM »
My brother in law plays guitar and has been trying to get me to start for a while.  On Thanksgiving he dropped by with a Guild Starfire hollow body electric and a Fender Hot Rod amp.  He said to keep them as long as I want, just as long as I learn to play.  So, I have yet another hobby now.  This one the wife approves of more than the guns, but that might change when she figures out just how much money can be burned on guitars ;D

If there are any other players on here let's hear from you...post pics if you have them.  I'm in Milwaukee right now so I can't play :(

dude i play.  actually i haven't played much in the past year or two.  the reason, my band had broken up and i needed some time away.  i really need to start up again, but it gets boring playing by yourself.

anyways, all i play is metal.  im not good at solos at all.  i just like to groove like pantera.  ill post pics later, ill show ya what i got.

Very nice...I'm into rockabilly type stuff (think Reverend Horton Heat) so the hollow body has a nice sound for me.  Not that I'm anywhere near being able to play like that.....

ya, thats cool.  he's been around for a long time.  im into metal.  basically cookie monster vocals and the hair metal.  lots of this newer music is basic crap, even to metal standards.

i use to play a lot, but i haven't played much in the past year or so.  ive been busy doing other things, like PS3.  i know, its lame.
