Hey all I play a bit of guitar on the side for fun. Was gonna quit but its too fun!

Been Playing for about 3 years on and off however last 12 months been hooking into it!

I mainly play old metal, prog and now gonna start playing newer stuff with heavy tunings for something different. Learnt a few scales so I sound alright now!

I will be starting a myspace music soon just gotta learn more about recording!

Equipment:
Ibanez (forgot the name but it better than all epiphone lp's)
Line 6 Spider III 30 (Sweet Tone & Effects)
Varied Classical Acoustics
As you can see in the pics I got a project as well. Its gonna have a seymour duncan screamon demon in it and painted some ratty colour.

Practice mate, ya fingers will stretch. There is no one who can play good from the moment they pick up a guitar. I started with a shitty 15 watt squier amp and I sucked badly! But jamming with others, using guitar pro and getting influenced soon changed things.

I play guitar, been playing for about 4 years or so. I have a 1983 fender jap strat. Mostly play Peppers stuff, powder finder, kings of leon, pearl jam. That kind of stuff. Its awesome fun, just have to upgrade amps in a few months time.

i was just about to start a new thread on which guitar to get. i got a bc rich SOB ( son of beast)
i brought a hardcase for it and is a complete ***** to get on the bus so im going to sell it
any guess how much i would get for a perfect bc rich beast, hardcase, soft case, amp and cord? im looking for 1000?

Yeah i guess you can call me bit of a guitar player.. I play mainly powerchords which is probably easiest form of playing. I play songs from Green Day, Blink 182 and the Ramones and few others here and there. My brother and myself have 6 guitars all up. I mainly play my black Cort strat copy which sounds good for what i do, my bro and I went part halfs in a 1980's Hondo guitar in a cool shade of blue which is a pretty good guitar sounds pretty good, I have a weird green acoustic and my bro has some dodgey acoustic. He's also got a les paul copy and a copy of a Fender bass which is made by Monterey. I play them on my 30watt AXTECH custom made amp with built in distortion and chorus. Brother has a DRIVE 15watt amp he got new with his bass which gets used every blue moon.
