Well, guitar's kinda plain y'know? It's nothing new or anything. Kinda boring.

What'd you get so frustrated about?

no its not, have you heard the new mars volta?!

Is the new TMV good?

I couldn't get much out of FTM. :-\


[QUOTE=Chels]
Haha, no kidding.

I used to HATE practicing. But something changed, and now I've been crazy about piano. I want a keyboard, new sheet music, I don't understand haha.[/QUOTE]I only find it fun when I'm playing songs I like. Like earlier, I was trying to make my own piano version of Cute without the E. It was fun.

I play lots of classical stuff so it gets boring and repetitive sometimes. I have good enjoyable pieces though.

Nah, and I don't plan to.

Don't get me wrong, they have great songs and stuff, but they aren't something I'd listen to on a daily basis.

Justin: De-Loused in the Comatorium has great stuff.

[QUOTE]What'd you get so frustrated about?[/QUOTE]
Eh, I'm used to being able to learn things really quickly. Most things come easily to me.

Unfortunately, guitar wasn't one of those things. I had to put a lot of work into it, and didn't really get anywhere. :-\

-

I don't like The Mars Volta much at all.

guitar came pretty quickly too me, i got stay together for the kids down, after the first week

Oh, I see.

Yehh, I guess it does take lots of practice.

I hate learning unusual chords, it hurts my fingers and ****.

Bass is so much better though. My fingers are nimble enough to move for bass, but not for playing chords.

like what? :p G?

I may have to try teaching myself a little bit, and try learning songs like that.

I took lessons, but I hadn't even heard some of the songs I was supposed to be learning, so that made it worse. :-\

Haha, yeah.

I tried to play some Michelle Branch, and it's hard work.

Hehe, I don't know too many chords beyond the basics. Like when they ask for a Bbm6/E(not really a chord I don't think), I'm lost.

yeah i didnt start taking lessons until after 2 years, my teacher was showing me stuff like Steve Morse.

I like how i didnt go straight into lessons though, because i could mix my own made up style with the theory that I was being taught, and its pretty cool. My friend who i taught guitar for like 3 days, was playing this 2 note power chord riff, and i just solo'd over it for like 15 minutes

edit: like once you know the theory like.. where you can play and the different modes and keys then you're set.

Haha.

Yeah, I don't like tabs that don't show the chords actually tabbed out.

Yeah, A minor? What the ****? C major? :confused:

[QUOTE=Chill]Haha, yeah.

yeah my girlfriend learned something from michelle branch

..i hope this wont be a double post *prays*

edit: w00t!

chels Am and C are like some of the most common chords..

Lawl.

You're still with that girlfriend of yours?

[QUOTE=Fish]

Yeah pretty much.

I mainly stick to major and minor keys since that's what most songs I listen to are in.

Chels: Well, not that bad, but I have to look up chords quite a bit.

Dave: God heard you.

[QUOTE=Chill]Lawl.

You're still with that girlfriend of yours?[/QUOTE]

why is that funny?

justin: ... yes.. :)

I know that they're common chords, but I've never gotten an guitar lesson, only bass.

Edit: The double-post part was funny.

:D

bass is cool, we should start a band

kgo!

im enjoying guitar more then i have since i started, 1.5-2 years ago

lol k.

I'm gonna go to bed after this song.

Goodnight, MX. :wave: <3

Haha, I read a bunch of guitar books and had to tune my moms old classical guitar by ear on the piano. Not too fun.

I've never taken lessons. :D

I didn't learn about harmonics for a long while though.


Night Chels. :wave:

night chels

how long can you possibly spend on harmonics? or are you talking like natural or artificial?

i never took lessons either, i wouldnt/dont want too

i perfer just learning from tabs, or do what i do most, make my own songs

yeah thats what i did for 2 years. But it came to a point where i taught myself basically all i could without having someone who knew what he was doing to guide me farther.

[QUOTE=Fish]

First natural, then artificial.

I mean I didn't even know about them. I was just picking/strumming.

After learning about them more, it became easier to tune.

[QUOTE=Dave]But it came to a point where i taught myself basically all i could without having someone who knew what he was doing to guide me farther.[/QUOTE]Same here. I read some of the lessons on MX as well. Never got sweeping down though. ;)

yeah sweeping is okay, im working on alt. picking instead of sweeping

i working on pinky strength/cordination

im a lefty playing right so my pinky is fukin retarded

Ooh, like hybrid picking and stuff. I tried that with the Hoobastank song The Reason. Never got the timing right though. Pretty confusing.

Mattay: Why don't you get a lefty guitar or flip it like Hendrix did?

yeah, ive been working on Tumeni Notes - Steve Morse, you should check that song out

cause hendrix was black.

Hmm, will do.

I'll check UG.

Dave: That song is wicked long by the looks of the tabs. I need to find it in slsk

dont judge a song on its tab justin, you should know better

yeah, that kid is weird

I meant note wise.

Is it played 200bpm? Looks fun.

Silly nubs.

Lawl, I just got the title of the song.
