. Here discuss the make, model and design of your guitar.

. Here talk about what you can play on your guitar.

My guitar is custom made as a gift from a friend, and I play my own songs on it. I also play a lot of Jimi Hendrix on my guitar such as 'Vodoo Child' and more. Wbu!?

I have a Fender acoustic guitar that I'm learning to play. I'm not to great, but I'm getting better each time I practice.

I know how to play the opening of Metallica's "Welcome Home (Sanitarium)", some parts of Green Day's "Wake Me Up When September Ends", and I'm learning to play a 3 Doors Down song.

That's awesome bro, keep going.

A little tip to writing a unique song; EXPERIMENT! It's the best thing you can do, no matter how many times you 'f' up you're gonna get some good sounding stuff. If you're a little less creative a good way to go is:

- Chucking

- Chord Progression

- Some things you've come up with while experimenting

- Picking

But make it all fit in and flow nicely, music is like a piece of art, it represents you, your thoughts and as you play colours flow out, some are nasty some are good, it's a matter of choosing good colours over bad.

I've played guitar for over a year, can't play much yet, but my learning has increased greatly in the last feew weeks.

I'm getting an Epiphone Les Paul for a christmas present.

How come you can't play much?

I've been playing since I was four (kids sized acoustic) and I am currently 17. You do the math buddy. ;D

Well to rephrase that, I can play lots of short takes from songs, but only 1 or 2 I can play from the first hit to the last.

Jaxville, which I pick up all too infrequently. Having played goalkeeper and now rugby since the age of 10, I don't have the finger dexterity to do the flashy solo stuff, but can play rhythm solid enough.

Usually I just strum away to stuff like Safe Home (Anthrax), Aerials (System of a Down), Pull Harder on the Strings (Trivium) and stuff like that.

Kryptonite?

[Jacob Slottet]

I play guitar and bass, and to be honest, I don't know what I'm better at.
I've been playing bass for over 2 years now, and guitar for almost 2 years.

My 6-string is a SX SEG1
My 4-string is a Rogue LX200BL

I like ESP's designs.
