July 18, 200718 yr Ibanez RG 350EX. Friend at work sold it to me. It's a $500 guitar, he bought it at Christmas, and there's only 2 visible scratches, he even bought and installed new strings for me. He sold it to me for $300. Pretty good deal lol. /monthly_06_2011/post-190-130810198271_thumb.jpg /monthly_06_2011/post-190-13081019829_thumb.jpg /monthly_06_2011/post-190-130810198313_thumb.jpg /monthly_06_2011/post-190-130810198331_thumb.jpg
July 18, 200718 yr thats a nice guitar. By your icon, I see you're a porcupine tree fan? I got to see them in Boston earlier this summer, they put on a pretty ill show.
July 18, 200718 yr I'm more of an acoustic fan, thinking about getting an electric too though. Just out of curiosity, how much was it?
July 19, 200718 yr Uh, I think he says it on his post, Norcalxx. Go back to owning Griiiimmeh... LOL I didn't read it. I overlooked the text and just looked at the pictures....lol sorry. ^_^
July 19, 200718 yr Author that's a fancy looking pink trash can....i mean guitar ^_^ lol shush it's my parent's room. It was dark outside and my room's lights are too dark so I just took the pics in my parent's room. Anyways, I just bought a Digitech RP50 effects pedal board, has 80 presets on it and it's pretty sweet, just $80.
July 19, 200718 yr nice dude, check mine out, i just got it about 2 months ago, its a schecter-omen 6, it had a tiny scratch on the back so i got 50 off, got it for $250, only been playing for like 6 months though, trying to get my chord transitions down, pretty fun past time, besides bf2142! ^_^ /monthly_06_2011/post-2237-130810198348_thumb.jpg

July 19, 200718 yr Nice, once you think you're ready, I recommend you get a digitech rp effects pedal, it really is a ton of fun to play around with.

July 19, 200718 yr take lessons. ive been ****ing around on my own for almost 3 years now, and seriously, it would have helped if i had taken lessons. well im using this book that has lotta good beginner stuff, dvd and everything, so far so good, lessons are freakin expensive, cheapest ive found is 20 bucks per freakin lesson
July 19, 200718 yr Author well im using this book that has lotta good beginner stuff, dvd and everything, so far so good, lessons are freakin expensive, cheapest ive found is 20 bucks per freakin lesson There's a music store round me that gives guitar lessons for like $30 a month, you get 1 lesson a week (so 4 lessons in a month). Pretty good deal, but I wouldn't know where to begin if I started lessons.. I'm pretty much self taught as well, I did get a beginning start in a really bad guitar class in grade 11 (1st semester, it was a grade 10 class and it sucked bad). I'm now movin into grade 12. I only learned most major and minor chords, and a couple of major scales (along with really bad songs I had to learn from those scales which weren't fun at all to memorize). So yeah, all I've ever done since is learn songs I liked, and that's where I am now.. lost lol and don't know where to go.

July 19, 200718 yr Author Hey man, If i want to psyche my self in to believing that its helping me then let me do that lol The only way you will improve in hand coordination is doing hours and hours of exercises on the guitar lol
July 19, 200718 yr The only way you will improve in hand coordination is doing hours and hours of exercises on the guitar lol roger ripper, that is what i do, about 2 hours everyday, finger tips starting to look like i ran it across a razer blade, right now im an expert at playing "when the saints go marching in" lol and the star spangled banner

I memorized it completely for the test. It was quite disappointing. The guys I knew in the class were all panicking on test day cuz they're idiots and didn't learn the song.
