My mate has one of them, he is massively spoilt and gets one each year from mummy and daddy. It sounds like one of those aldi ones you get with a seven watt amp for $12.I want one:
The ultimate in angry white boy metal guitars
I understand that. I meant in a more musical sense (of who you are). If you see someone pull out a Jackson RR5 it's pretty safe to assume that that person is into metal, no? Like i said, it's not ideal to have these assumptions, but it's pretty stupid to deny the fact that they exist.I dont buy into that shit. What you play says alot more about who you are....
Yeah point taken, but I as I said, i dont buy into it. i dont take notice of what guitars people play. Sometimes you get surprised... I went to a blues fusion gig (not knowing it was that until I heard em play). The guitar player walked out with an Ibanez Jem - the full Vai model, U.S made, all the tricky inlay etc - I know you know the model Anyway, given that he had that guitar, you could be forgiven for thinking that he would come out shredding. On the contrary He played some of the sweetest blues Ive ever heard... completely breaking out of the stigma that is attatched to people who play those guitars!I understand that.

I'm thinking of starting to learn the electric guitar.
I'm almost 17, is it too late to learn from scratch?
Lessons aren't really an option, can't afford them and don't have time for them. Can I teach myself? Any books? Websites?
Whats a price for a half decent but not bank breaking electric guitar and amp? New? Second hand?
Yeah I looked at that site and nah I know that Killswitch use Drop C. I'm extremely familiar with a lot of guitar terminology and general knowledge, but thanks!Regarding tabs for the killswitch song, I dont know what website/s you have checked out but I find that www.ultimate-guitar.com has some quite good tabs with peer ratings so you can see which ones are crap and which are alright. Also some tabs dont state what tuning the tabs are in, so you could be playing it in normal tuning when it is actually in drop C etc.
Good luck with your guitar playing....
