I have a really crappy electric one that I don’t really play anymore. I used to be able to play a whole ton of songs but I forgot them all with the exceptions of really easy ones like Smoke on the Water and Iron Man.
Yeah, I’m thinking about it. I’d probably sell my crappy one and get a new one (maybe even a cheap Les Paul!) and I’d have to get a new amp as well. Maybe once I get a car… and a laptop…
Many people learn guitar on their own and I did that also, of couse your cant go very far like that, but if u need it for personal entertainment, then guitar is the instrument to learn alone.
Yeah. I used to take lessons and that’s how I found out how to play those songs and others. If I were to take it up again I’d surely learn by myself.
yes and internet helps a lot if u wanna find songs to play, there are numerous sites with tabs like http://www.guitartabs.cc and http://www.ultimate-guitar.com I think those two are the best.
Yeah, I’ve been to guitartabs.cc myself a few weeks ago when looking up the Stairway to Heaven tab (first time in three years I brought out my guitar).
lol, well if u love that instrument u gotta practice more often, I play every day, even silly stuff just strumming, to keep my fingers “updated”.
and stairway to heaven intro is pretty easy.i play acoustic mostly, I have my music on http://www.myspace.com/dougbarrett if you guys want to check it out sometime, it isn’t great, but its a fun hobby
I play classical guitar, although I also have a regular acoustic guitar. I studied under Sulaiman Zai at IUPUI many, many years ago.
I still occasionally play my classical guitar (the second guitar I ever owned). I bought it with the funds I earned on my paper route back in 1975.
My advice is keep it up. Music is a gift to treasure.
I used to play and still have a B.C. Rich warlock. And not one of those crappy versions they sell now a days. Mine is decked out with everything, even the Floyd Rose tremelo. Candy apple red with gold hardware.
Alas somthing else I can’t do anymore. I guess I will just keep it around for memorabila *thinks he spelled that wrong*
I play acoustic and electric guitar. I generally noodle around on my acoustic alot, as I’ve been living in condo’s and apartments the last few years, but next week I’ll have a nice big house to practice in the basement whenever I want. My Les Paul Studio is itchin to be plugged into my nice big Marshall Amplifier. 😀 It’s been ignored too often since my high school/college days of playing in rock bands. I have an old album my buddies and I wrote, performed & professionally recorded available for a listen over at http://music.download.com/apidadafu if anyone’s interested.
I gotta agree with Jeff, music is definately a gift to treasure. I’m toying with the idea of setting up a makeshift digital studio in my basement as well. We’ll see how that pans out. 😉
Lets see… the first one I got was an Art & Lutherie acoustic back in June. Just a few weeks ago, I purchased an Ibanez bass… GSR 200 I beleive. I mostly play bass, in Jazz band and I have a rock band as well… we don’t have a name yet or anything though. I also play tuba, baritone and piano.
Here’s some pictures…
