Rael0505 Posted June 1, 2006 Report Share Posted June 1, 2006 Been playing for like 3 months, though I can already play piano. My amp sucks, and I look retarded holding a guitar. LAUGH AT ME AND YOU'LL MAKE ME CRY :( Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sonic101 Posted June 1, 2006 Author Report Share Posted June 1, 2006 LAUGH AT ME AND YOU'LL MAKE ME CRY :( I've no right to luagh, My skills pale in comparision to all the other guitarists near me so I know how it would feel heh. EDIT: Okay I watched the video, your not to bad actually, I cant play with others worth crap just yet but i should really just pick a song and keep trying to play along with it. Also nice rack of swords my bro has a rack downstairs aswell. You play pretty good for only 3 months, and no you dont look stupid holding a guitar at all, i thihnk it suits you, just keep practing and practice your scales and you'll get better in no time.

Rael0505 Posted June 1, 2006 Report Share Posted June 1, 2006 I've gotten a bit better since then. At the time I made the video, a bit over 2 months, though now a bit over 3. I'll record myself playing more when I learn a new song. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Shadix Posted June 1, 2006 Report Share Posted June 1, 2006 If I would devote myself a bit I'd probably get good... I've been focusing all my resources at learning to mix and play the piano as of late. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Andrew Posted June 1, 2006 Report Share Posted June 1, 2006 When I get my guitar's pickup working again properly, I'll film myself doing a total-powerchord song. And maybe an acoustic song. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tentril Posted June 1, 2006 Report Share Posted June 1, 2006 Cool. Now do "the Breaking Wheel" by Artillery. Sadly Guitar Hero is as far as my guitar expertise carries me. How did you guys learn to play guitar? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rael0505 Posted June 1, 2006 Report Share Posted June 1, 2006 I taught myself most of what I know, though now I have a teacher. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KoE Posted June 1, 2006 Report Share Posted June 1, 2006 im trying to teach myself. It doesnt work though, cos i still cant play anything. My amps crap too! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andrew Posted June 1, 2006 Report Share Posted June 1, 2006 Well, I only have a beginner guitar (copy of a Telecaster by an Australian company (Legend)) and the complement amp. Both are rather bad, and I'm looking at buying an Epiphone SG or a Squier Telecaster or Strat. KoE: Try learning some chord-based songs before moving onto licks and riffs. Green Day - Time of Your Life Foo Fighters - Times Like These (acoustic) Hunters and Collectors - Throw You Arms Around Me James Blunt - You're Beautiful (this song will introduce you to Barre chords) ..would be a good place to start. I also recommend Ultimate-Guitar's feature "Steal This Video" by a member called pickngrin who takes you through lots of different techniques.

Eminence Posted June 1, 2006 Report Share Posted June 1, 2006 Well... I'm alright at guitar, I tend to lose focus of where I am and get huge squeaks so if you want to hear. http://www.myspace.com/finaladdiction (It's power chords ok? So sue me.) I've only been playing for about 3 months. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Shadix Posted June 1, 2006 Report Share Posted June 1, 2006 What is up with bands and "Addiction", the band I used to be in was called "Sweet Addiction", of course they were progressive metal which automatically makes them awesome :E.
