qwerty made one himself.

I don't like 'em, uncomfortable to play sitting down.

You'll love it until you actually own one. What you forget is that most of the time,you're sitting down working with it rather than standing up and performing. It's not an instrument made for sitting and practicing.

P.S. I thought I'd post some pics of a few of my available instruments but, I really didn't want to get too many of you drooling over the collection...

**mervaka** · 08-11-2006, 01:28 AM

yeah i gathered :/

how about amps then? i've got a fender blues junior, and a marshall valvestate

my boost channel goes to 20 though.

o_frenchtoast · 08-11-2006, 01:49 AM

My amp was 100 dollars. Not even worth mentioning.

o_qwertyuiop · 08-11-2006, 03:08 AM

I got a 1983 American Strat a couple days ago. And a Peavey Classic 50 410 tube amp. Pretty awesome.

Here is my gear (not actually mine, pics are googled)

And my Yamaha Eg112 converted to flying v state.

And this dude

And this

Soon to have this

o_frenchtoast · 08-11-2006, 03:12 AM

Gah, y'all make me pissed off about my shitty equipment.

o_yomamashouse · 08-11-2006, 03:18 AM

Meh, you only need one Guitar. I think you should save up for a decent comp like me so you can enjoy our LAN parties to the fullest, and maybe stop mentioning PVK. I plan to be able to run Crysis on fullest, no exceptions.

I do kinda wish i was somewhat musically inclined because guitar playing seems fun.

o_qwertyuiop · 08-11-2006, 03:20 AM

Guitaring is funner.

I'll calculate how much money I've spent on guitars.

Starter set - $200 (parents bought)
Acoustic - $350 (parents bought)
Double neck - $600
Double neck case - $100
Les Paul - $600
Les Paul case - $80
Strat- $950
Strat Case - Free
Lessons - a lot (parents pay for)
Strings- 100-200
Peavey Classic 50 amp - $500

2840 on the stuff I paid for, not including strings.

o_ozzy · 08-12-2006, 12:53 PM

If you're looking for a new axe I'd like to champion the cause of Schecter! They're Korean made, but honestly, they are exceptional instruments given their price. They go for about £400 in the UK, but I think you can get them for around $600-$700 for the top end C1's. If you get one with the genuine Seymour Duncans in they're incredibly versatile guitars.

I've got a Blackjack as well as an ESP/Ltd K-500. The K-500 is worth about twice as much as the Schecter (though I didn't pay what it was worth :P) but honestly I think the Schecter is a superior quality instrument. I've never met a single owner of one that has had a bad thing to say about them.

o_sh4x · 08-12-2006, 03:05 PM

I almost went for that Schecter C1 when I was looking to buy.

Then I found this baby http://www.guitar-price-check.com/Gr...-Jet_p1344.htm used on ebay for something like 1000$ and holy shit does it play good.

Word, and it gets you more ass.

I love LOVE my tele deluxe...saving for a paulie though. I'll probably splooge on one with my next tax refund. My amp is a VOX AC30, and it sounds orgasmic. Thom Yorke ftw.

o_drtom · 08-12-2006, 05:43 PM

my ibanez bass and random acoustic

qwerty that strat is sexual!

o_frenchtoast · 08-12-2006, 06:07 PM

Mmmmmmm, '57 strats only 17 grand on ebay...

Imagine this, in red, really beat up missing the tone and volume knobs.

9 years...

o_dr zoidberg · 08-12-2006, 11:25 PM

I play on a 20 dollars guitar from ikea.

Not kidding.

I thought about stealing a guitar but you cant really get close to the door before they suspect something = getting caught.

Altho its good to play on a shitty guitar, cause then when we play in school on bad ass guitars i play like a god. =D
