Re: Musicians!!!!
I play lead guitar in my band. You can check us out a myspace.com/socialclasszero. We are still looking for a bassist so if you know anyone in the SE Michigan area that plays bass, let me know!!! haha
The recordings are kinda sloppy. They are from our last show and there was some alcohol involved.
My rig consists of either an Epi LP Classic or Fender MIM SSS Strat>orig. crybaby> made in japan Boss Ds1> EHX Metal Muff>Danelectro Fab Chorus> made in japan Boss Dm2(delay)> Fender Blues Jr.

I play lead guitar in a band called "The Daunt"
Aside from that, I used to play bass in a band (not very good though), and I'm classically schooled in piano (whatever that might mean), so I play keys in The Daunt whenever the need arises. I don't like playing (or studying) covers, so I mostly tend the write my own music and a good deal of the music for my band.
I play a 1979 Gibson "The Paul", original neck pick-up, dimarzio bridge pick-up. I just bought a Line 6 Flextone III Xl two or three weeks ago. It's an amazing amp, and anyone who says the modeling doesn't sound right is a big tube sissy

Re: Musicians!!!!
oops and i actually play a little guitar and keys. guitar since age 12, keys since grade school. in 5th grade i played alto sax and i want one again but can't afford it yet.
my keyboard is just a cheesy huge Casio but i want a REAL piano someday... this is funny and will only be relevant cause this is a GNR board. my dad gave me that keyboard on february 6th of 1998. lol.
my guitars - two Deans, a black cadillac model - looks like a les paul mated with an explorer - which has screwed up connections inside - and a platinum frost baby V which i just got last year and haven't played much.
and i have a luna faerie acoustic which is actually a kid's guitar but easier for me to play cause most acoustics are huge-bodied except for ovation which i cannot afford at this point. i'm petite.
my amp is my best toy though. a 1987 marshall baby stack in white. it's like a four foot tall full stack, but just 12 watts. the best practice amp on earth.

Re: Musicians!!!!
I just doodle around a bit on the guitar by myself. I used to play heaps back when I was a student (ahh so much spare time) but in truth the last few years Ive hardly picked it up. Ive been threatening to get serious again once my business is a little more self sufficent and I can dedicate the time to it.
My stuff is nothing flash - I have a Epiphone (Les Paul) Sunburst in colour, I also have a shitty Fender Squier Strat and a cheap electric accoustic. My AMP is the Slash Signature Edition Marshall 100W Head and Speaker Cabinet. Although lately the poor thing sits in the corner most of the time and I simply play the accoustic or the electric without it being plugged in so I don't piss my girlfriend or the neighbours off.

Re: Musicians!!!!
I used to play piano, got fed up with theory fast as i'd started it when i was 5 or 6. I come from a family ( on my dad's side) of geniously talented piano players and my grandfather and his brother used to play 8 hands on double grand queue piano with their wifes. They entertained people in their days.
Anyway, i then played by ear only and used to transpose music by ear as i would hear a melody and replay it as i thought it sounded better.
Not that it was what i was actually looking for but that's how it usually ended.
One day, i realised i lacked theory, but i was too old and too tired to go through it all again, so i gave up.
Also because i was pissed off having my mother ask me to play for people anywhere we went, i was the little musical monkey and my brother was the " let's hear him crack a joke" monkey.
It felt good leaving my mother all alone with her own talents to entertain people ( devilish laughter lol)..
I play a little harmonica, i have a collector that belung to my paternal grandfather.
I did sing in front of 5000 people once..Long story...
I did a little backing singing for an acid jazz band in london in the early 90's.
Dis some studio backing too ( let me explain :
Theree was a show going on, composed of kids, and their voices were not strong enough, their were doing something for the queen's birthday i think it was, by Douggie Squires.
So as the show went on, we were in a studio nearby, live, and we were backing them live, there were 6 of us and no one ever knew lol)..
And got to do la la las on stage once during a Dave Stewart performance with the spiritual cowboys, but just as a fan, near his guitarist, vicky..lol, claim to fame lol)...

I know why! I have one of those too and they make a HELL of a noise if you set it to Slash's prefered settings. Mind you - the tone is exquisite!

Cool! Have you played with many other AMPs (because I haven't) so I always wondered how this compared?
I suppose it depends on what sort of sound you are after. I bought it because it was Slash's playing that really got me interested in guitar in the first place and so I obviously wanted to try and get his sound as best I could.
