Cars and Guitars
 
This is probably the wrong place for this, but here it goes anyway... 80% of my local RX-8 owners play guitar. Is this a trait of the RX-8 owner or is this unique for my area? I've noticed a few on here, including myself that play.:ylsuper:

I've been playing for a few months now. Love my Epiphone Les Paul!

I play bass primarily but started playing the guitar for fun about a years ago.

Always wanted to learn the guitar. I'm too clumsy though. It will take me approx 2 min to type just this short paragraph... :sad:

I use to play my guitar many moons ago(maybe 15 to 20 years ago) I know, sad right? It's a fun instrument to mess with. I maybe able to get away with playing stairway to heaven if i was to pick up a guitar at this moment, lol, maybe.... Rx8's and guitars ? Hell yeah!

Cole33 06-27-2012 10:43 PM

I play a lot of bass but haven't learned much on my guitar. I have big hands!

interesting. I cant play guitar. I just dont have the genes.

OddEclipse 06-27-2012 11:17 PM

What I really should have said was musically inclined... not guitar in particular.

Been playing for about 10 years now. I slimmed my pedal board down as I get several of the effects I want like reverb and chorus off my half stack. Been through many guitars but these are the ones I shred on now, two custom Ibanez's.

Played Bass in multiple band from the late 80s until around 2000. Then I switched to acoustic guitar/lead vocals for a 3 piece acoustic band for 6 years. Don't play much anymore, but still pick it up once in awhile. Still have all my gear (except my lovely Trace Elliot rig I swapped for a Red Head in the late late 90s. Biggest mistake I ever made :)

alnielsen 06-28-2012 06:33 AM

I recently picked up an Epiphone SG. I can only play well enough to drive mice away from my house. I sound slightly better than white noise.

ATL-GP 06-28-2012 08:02 AM

I'm primarily a drummer, but play a little bass

fuztupnz 06-28-2012 08:06 AM

I have 2 partscaster strats, a partscaster tele, A breedlove acoustic, and shitty old 12 string and a kit LP knockoff that's terrible. I have a Mesa Boogie DC-3 as my one and only amp.

Previously i've had a Vox AC15cc, a Fender Blues Deluxe RI, a 1970 Fender Champ, and a 1975 Fender Super twin. I've had too many guitars over the years to name off, but the two i miss the most are my Gretsch Double Anni and a Fender Tele Nashville.

ATL-GP 06-28-2012 08:09 AM

Damn, I love Messa Boggie!! IMO, one of the best sounding guitar amps out there. The friggin crunch you can get out of those amps is amazing...I love a MB set up!!

Chris 06-28-2012 08:12 AM

I am just starting to learn how to play guitar.... BUT... my to be father-in-law has moved up to jersey, he left 15 guitars down here. all signed. I have a couple others that I practice on which are on wall mounts in my home office but I am thinking of converting one of our guestrooms into a music room. Hang all the guitars up for show :)

Apparently we have 2 bass guitars which are 2 of only 8 ever made. I dont know a hell of a lot about guitars as I play sax but from what the in law tells me they are $$$

nah blue is the fastest.:smoker:

Art L 06-28-2012 12:01 PM

Played classical guitar for many years, but a slight case of Dupuytrens's contrature has made it very difficult to play. :sad:

So for now, I'll just have to listen to the beautiful Ana Vidovic.

usafrotard 06-28-2012 05:10 PM

I've been playing the guitar for about 9 years now. I've got a jackson guitar, marshall amp, and various pedals. I also have an ibanez for backup.

OddEclipse 06-28-2012 07:27 PM

Redline. Nice rig. I really like the Ibanez guitars also, but my baby is a Mahogany Jackson Soloist with tiger striped maple top and ebony fret board. The Seymour JB4 pickup combined with a Marshall JCM 800... is tone heaven for me. Are those Elixir strings? I prefer D'Addario and I went to .009's, but had to add a spring to my Floyd Rose. Richer tone ya know. How's that Bad Monkey? I haven't tried that yet, but they sure are popular. I also see that you understand the pedal sequence.

OddEclipse 06-28-2012 07:51 PM


nah blue is the fastest.
That's what all the R3 owners keep telling me... the ones who drive blue ones anyway.
