The headless one is a Steinberger. I love tuning system/bridge on them but I wish they'd make some larger guitars, the body seems to small.

SG's are my favorite style of guitar [:-]

Been playing since 92'. Gibson Les Paul Classic

Jakjr - By the look of your equip. I'd say you like the heavy stuff - My kind as well. Rock on.

Gotta love the SG. If I wasn't so deep into the RC hobby I'd probably have one.

Not me, I play keyboards. My wife is the guitar player in the house. One is a vintage Gibson with Gibson amp. Where she works makes guitar strings for big-time players and once in a while they come into the factory. Ratt was in there 2 weeks ago. See www.deanmarkley.com .

I picked up a guitar and never really learned how to play it. Later I purchased a keyboard and one of my two cats probably got as much use out of it if not more since he likes to walk on it when it is turned on.

Default RE: Who all plays guitar?

Im getting a new guitar soon and im stuck between these two guitars. http://www.musiciansfriend.com/produ...tar?sku=515347
http://www.guitarcenter.com/Squier-b...31-i1389949.gc (no pic) http://squierguitars.com/products/se...tno=0300500504

I know that the squier is pretty good but i hear that kramers are awesome but ive never seen one in person and guitar center or any other local guitar shops offer them so i dont know what to expect but the kramer does look sick. I play almost everything from metal,alternative,indie,grunge, hard rock, and blues(rarely). Ive played the strat before and i own one already but there cheapest one.

that's nothing, iv got a homie that's been playing for 20 years, he's got guitars worth more than $10,000. course he uses them to help pay the bills so... check it, the video quality is kinda crappy but http://youtube.com/watch?v=QORi_fq82Aw the guy in the white t-shirt is the guy im talking about. my homie Newell



personally iv been playing off and on (most off) for about 12 years. its something i like doing, i just get bored with stuff quickly, and move around to a lot of stuff so i never really honed my skills. iv been thinking for a few days know of breaking out my peace of crap guitar, just to see if i can still play, how much stuff i remember. ya know what, i think ill go do it

I never took lessons, just started "messing" with my acoustic one day. I still suck, but can play a few songs (their intros, I mean LOL). I can play Crazy Train, Sunshine of your Love, Crazy on You, Enter Sandman, One, The Unforgiven, Smoke on the Water, and Down on the corner. I suck at chords, I am only good at those simple songs...

I've been playing for about 5-6 years.
I've been playing for about 15 years, right now I have a washburn

http://www.washburn.com/products/electrics/x/x10.aspx

I have that one except its a metallic blue, I love washburns, I picked up a used one about 10 years ago, I fell in love with the brand, I love how loose I can play the strings and there is still no rattle sound of the strings hitting the frets on open notes.

I've never taken lessons, self taught using tabs, listening and trying.

Whats cool is that any one who knows how to play a song on guitar then trys guitar hero you can notice that they really do try to imitate the movements and chords you would do on the real song, like song raining blood by slayer, guitar hero did a great job of mimicking what it would be like playing on a real guitar
