I think there's quite a few on this forum, so share your information with me..

What guitar do you have? How long have you been playing? Favourite tunes to play?

Whatever.

I have a BC Rich Warlock (Acrylic), been playing nearly 3 years. I like playing too much to list, I'm currently learning some vivaldi

I play bass - got a cheap and nasty four string and a wonderul Goodfellow custom made 5-string. The 5 was an 18th birthday present from my parents - so thanks to them. I have been playing for 6 years and love all kinds of music - but especially the Chilis and TOOL.

Oddly enough, I got this weird desire to learn to play the Banjo - so, well - i picked one up in December. A Deering 'Goodtime' model. I swear, its still somewhat odd when people find out I'm learning to play one ..."A Banjo? You don't look inbred....".. what can I say.. I practive every day, and I'm loving it (my first instrument, and I didn't start until I was 37)...

So, no grunge band in my future, but what the hell - Its been a kick so far...

I think they guy named stratocaster is really Yngwie J Malmsteen.

Anyways, I have a charvel jackson, jackson kelly3, kramer, 2 rebuild I built myself from different cheap guitars, a fender acustic, fender bass and an old drum set a buddy gave me.

Im a guitar player, metal and hard rock from 70s 80s 90s. I was in a metal band in high school, in 84 we played at my school for the senior graduation day. I was in 11th grade, my metal history is 1 day long. but that was enough and in that band I sang,we covered Priest, Motley,Accept plus 3 originals, we were "Havok". I have a tape of it somewhere.

Glad to meet all u guitar players, so many of us are guitar gamers here (I need to buy that guitar game for PS2)

Influeces - Angus Young, Glenn Tipton, Gary Moore, Eddie Van Halen, Dave Mustaine, even good ole Neil Young and Bob Dylan.

I wanted a LineX Variax Acoustic. I got a pretty good used Goya acoustic instead. $1000+ price difference. I'm happy.
