Some pretty sweet guitars there lads! :) I'm a huge fan of the acoustic. Never been able to play, tried when i was younger but the guy who was trying to teach me gave up because of the fact o can't read music. :(:(:(

I've got a acoustic guitar sat with me now, can't get the "claw" i think its. Referred to. Practice makes perfect though one of mu mates plays great so he's gonna attempt to teach me once or twice a week. Can play one cord.. think its "c" 2-4-5 strings? And tips or advice would be helpful

Thank you lads. any help appreciated. its a dream of mine to play! :)

What a great thread. Thanks for starting it Phil. An thanks for everybody else contributing.



I play guitar. I wouldn't call myself a guitarist though! That Buckethead video was most enjoyable. Will definately be checking out more.



I own 5 acoustics, 4 electrics, 1bass and a fair bit of of studio gear. Mic's preamps and stuff.



  • My first acoustic is a second hand yamaha. i think its a fg315 dreadnought from the early 90's late eighties. It's currently in a case three quarters sanded as I fancied taken the hard lacquer off it. To see if it would breath a bit better, change the tone?


  • Second would be my Simon & Patrick sp6 in cedar. It's a lovely guitar for the money.


  • Third A cheap classcal I bought for a fiver off a smack head! It's a Lauren!. (probably made in some remote jungle sweat shop by 5 year old kids who get paid 2p a month) Sounds ok :0


  • Fourth Simon & Patrick sp6 twelve string. Sounds lush, sore on the fingers. All my acoustics are strung with 11's which is taugh enough for my girlie hands.


  • Last but definatly not least is my 1971 red label nippon kaki yamaha fg140. I flipping love this guitar. It's nothing to look at but the tone is ace. 'It's awe aboot the tone'


Electrics



  • My first electric is a 1970's Antoria Les Paul custom. I really like this guitar. I bought it in bits (all there). Cleaned it up rebuilt it, got it professionally set up. plays nice and sound not to bad for £54. :thumbsup:
  • My second electric is a Fender California Strat in vintage white. Nice. Great tone.
  • Third? A Danoelectro u2 in black and cream. The first reissue's made in Korea. This a great guitar. £100! brand new! ya Dancer!!
  • Fourth an unamed red lap steel.
  • Bass a Danelectro longhorn bass in coral with sunburst cream. First reissues made in Korea. It's 3/4 length and looks retrotastic!


I'll try and post some pics soon, although give me time lads, i'm hardly n here sometimes. I'll do my best though. Thanks again. I enjoyed having an outlet for my musicmakinggearnerdyness!

To be honest mate I dint know much about them at all when I got the first one! It looked nice, but I have looked into them a lot more over the years and its surprising how many pros do use em! to list a few Joe Satriani, Korn, Slip Knot and many more!! But the way they look is still the main thing for me!

is she an RG??



Satriani - still uses them



Steve Vai - still uses them



Herman Li from Dragonforce uses them as he says ESP are too heavy compared to Ibanez.



Mick Thompson uses Ibanez and BC Rich I believe yes.



Korn have always used them.



And whats his name from System of a Down uses them.



nice sized amp too dude? much bigger looking than my 30 watt!



You rocking some nice stomp boxes or a multi FX with them?



Phil.
