Can they hell! Very hard to master IMO.I've been practising for 2 months now,and i've got quite far.I know a lot of people find it hard,but I found it even harder,mainly becuase I don't really listen to guitar based muisc,apart from,Sigur Ros,Radiohead,Floyd ect. But I found after learning the basics of guitaring,my musical tastes have changed.It brings a whole new light on music being able to create it yourself. Has anyone else noticed learning to play a certain instrument can change the way you listen to things? |
||||||||

|
|
definitely!!! I used to only listen to punk back in the day (don't ask me why) after learning to play (to be in a punk band) I started listening to more complex stuff like Led Zeppelin which over the years lead me to Aphex somehow....I understand completely |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Thats how I got into Floyd. I actually appriciate good guitarists,like Clapton,or respect rather. I've become rather open minded on the matter. |

I learnt classical guitar but got so sick of it by the end that gave up listening to anything that remotely sounded like convential scales and chords etc for a long time..I fell into the arms of Sonic Youth and Noise... |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
hmmm Im just learning how to play classical but I think I understand what you mean flea, sometimes it starts to sound all the same |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I haven't got as far as Classical yet.I'm just trying to grasp the basics of Jazz,fuck its hard.But to help I'm learning how to read music,first. Whoever guesses the artists name for this topics name,gets a cookie. |

I dunno, there's that bass player (in some rock band I forget which one...)who only has 3 hands on his chord hand and none on the strumming hand :) |
||||||||

I've been playing guitar for 4 or 5 years, I still pick it up 10 minutes a day and play some stuff. I'm a rocker at <3 |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|

||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I used to do that, but with school and all...I can never find the time, but like opheck I always try to play at least 10 minutes a day |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||

Thanks, you made my life worthwhile ! |

I play about 0mins-5hours a day. I still can't get radioheads-lucky just right,but I can do much more compliacated stuff. I was thinking of trying bass,but I haven't got that kind of rythm needed. I play electric,but I can't play acoustic at all.Shame. |
||||||||

I hate playing guitar, it's boring, i've been playing for 1,5 years now and I'm sick of it! |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i was told to lean to play the accoustic first because its a lot harder to play, i.e., harder to dampen and fret the strings. and it turned out to be right. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Same here dobbin - and it worked good for me too :) |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I know i've done it the wrong way around.My guitar teacher even says so,and moans at me all the time. I need to get a little faster at chord switching too,I focused to much on lead work. Actually I think i'm off to practise now. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
yeah I started electric myself...difficult change to make to accoustic classical is kicking my ass right now because of the larger fret board and nylon strings |
||||||||
|

Nah. Piano dude here. Never liked those campfire dudes i know and hate. kind of put me off guitar! But i know some real talented guys, but they all play metal! is it like that or what? The technically best guitar players are drawn to metal? hmm. anyway, i personally feel that my piano lessons have given me a lot of understanding of music, and that has brought more appreciation with it too! (well, also basic knowledge of music theory, note reading and so on.) So nothing wrong with learning something! it wont destroy you. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I used the word "dude" two times after each other. fuck that. i hate it. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I agree with you there, Priest - I too am a piano player foremost, and I know a lot of theory and techniques because of it :) God bless it! |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i dont have the finder exterity or the motivation to do anything, like read this thread. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Piano is an awesome instrument I agree I love the sound it makes But listen to Julian Bream if you want to hear some incredible guitar work (that is if you like classical) About using "dude" don't stress it I say "damn it" way too much I'm noticing |

Hi. My name is John, and I play the guitar. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Most good guitarists are drawn to metal 'coz thats were the moneys at. Theres not alot of money in classical,but I know there are people out there who don't play guitar professionally(band) who are exellent artists. Same as most instruments/genres I suppose. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
yeah, john williams is shit |
||||||||

TonePusher - Check out Sonic Youth if you haven?t done that... A great guitarpeice is Steve Reichs "Electric counterpoint" - That one you MUST check out! |
||||||||

wasn't it pat metheny playing the guitar though with his 96 string or something daft like that? |
||||||||
|

I'm playing the guitar for about 10 years now. Learned most from some songbooks (if there were only the internet then with al those tabs :) ). If you can grab some chords already, you can play a bunch of known songs. |

I took lessons for 3 years, but I was the worst student... I'd never bother to learn scales or notes, or how to read... most of the time I just went there and jammed with my instructor. I might not have put any effort into learning, but it was alright with him because we were both into the same shit, wheras most of his other students were tools that wanted to learn how to play Green Day or Blink 182. Anyone truly CAN play guitar if they just want to play some of that stuff. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||

|
|
If you can play,C,D,F,G,E chords nowdays you can be a pop star,like Busted! |
||||||||

i wanna be tatu btw i never played any instrument except in school, and a little gimbarde, but it's as instrumental as dead pet |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I forgot to mention that it indeed changed the way I listened to music. ;) Ophecks, what stuff were you playing ? |
||||||||

review of your post: "Anyone can play guitar." uh, are you trying to make a statement that anyone can play a guitar, or trying to ask if anyone here can play a guitar or what? "Can they hell!" Wtf? "(the rest of it)" (didn't read) |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i know how to play too from when i was in a band a long time ago. but one day i got pissed and smashed my guitar. i still can play, but not as good as i was before. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
"I still can play... I just don't have a guitar to play with anymore..." |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i play with dead pets instead |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
you could play with dead crickets as musical instruments by making their legs to chirp. |
||||||||

Can you hell! |
