No, I have been saving up since like last year.

Yeah I`m thinking of a Gibson,And the Tele's are awesome,but I`m also thinking a Les Paul,but it also depends money wise,and I want to get something worth the money spent on it,plus to sound and look good

Some day I'd like a bass, too. I really love some bass lines as well as rhythm , and lead lines!

I do play some bass lines on the 2 lowest guitar strings.


AS to writing music ............

I DO get melodic lines in my mind from time to time, over like 2 decdes, but I lost the ability to read music even more decades ago. Ah.....well.

SO what I've done is to put down dots going higher or lower from a "line" to indicate different notes, keeping them on a straight line for the same notes, and putting a joining curved line under 2 notes (or more) when they are played fast after each other.

Sort of musical indications BUT without the music staff, and all the other graphical musical directions indicators.

Of course the approxiate realationship between the notes I indicate, doesn't give me the actual notes, or keys , but with the guitar vs the keyboard I have, eventually as I make more time for it- it should be easier for me to pick out notes quicker on the gutair. And just MAYBE-- I'll find the combination I thought in my mind /hummed to myself originally , or find something even better!!

This IS a l-o-n-g term (several years) project, unless I get on a roll (which for music I'd be suprised, with decades away from understanding musical notation)!
Art & Artisan Crafts come first.

Let me tell you,when you are first starting out those barred chords are hard as hell to pull off.
If I don`t have to,I don`t like doing them personally,maybe I`m the only one

i was saying notation isnt that hard

barre chords are difficult when you first start off because of the stretching but if you keep at it then obviously your hands will get used to it. its second nature to me now

I still suck at playing a B chord cause I"m not sure where to place my fingers? am I right that you need to put your index finger all across all 2nd frets?


I know I shouldn't choose between my instruments, but I've been playing my bass way more lately..

it's just bigger, heavier, and easier to play! the strings aren't so damn close to eachother!

Yea I wanna join a band too, and luckily for me they usually seek bass players!

I was going to be studio musician for a band of a girl I know, but I haven't seen her since june
