The drummer that would be a guitarist

[themostepotente]

Penny + unexpected day off + impulse buying = Fender Stratocaster

Um, yeah -- there's just one thing. I can't play guitar :P

Lessons, ahoy!

Wow. A Strat is quite an impulse buy, especially if you don't already play. Was it the color?

[themostepotente.livejournal.com]

*chuckles* No, I was going to buy a new hi-hat and ended up with a guitar instead. Go figure :-)

[loupgarou1750.livejournal.com]

ok. makes sense to me. hi-hat? guitar? hi-hat? guitar? drumsticks? fingerpicks? drumsticks? fingerpicks?

oooh, cherry sunburst! Shiny!

[themostepotente.livejournal.com]

Black, actually. *G*

I am keenly jealous.
Impressive lack of impulse control

[themostepotente.livejournal.com]

Ha ha -- my impressive lack of impulse control is going to get me into trouble one day.

[danxsunday.livejournal.com]

outstanding....hope it makes the front page ;)

GAUGH. what model? where was it made? color? do you have an amp? rosewood or maple fretboard? first of all, you need how to read basic tabs. an excellent site for searching for tabs is guitarsrule.com. just go to their tabulature section. tabs are a pretty straightforward way of writing music... the numbers represent which fret you should finger (guitar playing is full full of innuendo ^_^). if you're any good at all at music, and have plenty of perserverence (and a lot of practice time), you shouldn't need lessons. at least, not yet. talk to me on aim if you're having trouble. aim: "munkystmpr"

[themostepotente.livejournal.com]

You 'must' be a guitar player. *G*

Let's see. It's black. It's a strat. I'm not sure the wood on the fretboard. And, I do have an amp. That's Fender as well.

Adding you to AIM now :-)

Even though I don't play guitar and never will, I feel envious. *envies*

[themostepotente.livejournal.com]

Come to Detroit! Hopefully, in time I'll be good -- then I can teach you.

oooh! I want pics!

I want to start learing guitar too...but since my husband has a surplus, I'll just steal one of his for now!
*hugs* have fun!

[themostepotente.livejournal.com]

Yes, must take pics! Soon. *G*

[themostepotente.livejournal.com]

*UL love*

Easy now -- it's a bottom of the line strat :-)

[gothikmaus.livejournal.com]

YAY! Congrats! =D

Expect nice little calluses on your fingertips in the next days/weeks. ^__^

[themostepotente.livejournal.com]

I have my dollar bag o' picks! *G*

widdly-widdly-widdly-weeeeooooowww!
(that's supposed to be a guitar solo btw)

[themostepotente.livejournal.com]

*chuckles* Did you play air guitar too?

[amanuensis1.livejournal.com]

See, that's the way to get yourself to learn an instrument, YAY!

[themostepotente.livejournal.com]

That's how I leaned to ride my first motorcycle.

I didn't know you played the drums. How neat.

(I have a degree in percussion, but due to physical problems+grad school+lack of space and money, I haven't played in years.)

[themostepotente.livejournal.com]

Been playing the drums off and on since I was 14.

You have a degree in percussion? That's cool as hell :-)

[ms-mindfunk.livejournal.com]

Buying a guitar (a Strat, no less) when you don't even know how to play was a really dorky thing to do. I would do the same thing. ;)

[themostepotente.livejournal.com]

What can I say? I'm a BIG dork. *G*

[violet_quill]

Whee, how fun! I got a guitar for Christmas myself, and I don't play a lick yet either. :-p But it sure is shiny....

Also play drums though! Other good thing about moving back in with my parents: place to put a drumset, wheeeee.

I never knew you were so musically inclined, Vi :-)
