[ [NOTICE]: I know a thread similar to this has already been created, but that one is pretty much dead, so I decided to make one myself. ]
Here's the place to talk about all things guitar. Here, you can talk about the type(s) of guitars you have, any amps, effects, strings, straps, chords, power chords, you favorite guitarists, and tips and tricks for people.

-takes it as a yes.-
This is... emberessing to say but I kinda had my guitar to be shaped in the way of a clown. I love it. So much. It scares my friends and I'm actually decent at it. |

| The intro isn't hard to play actually, I just need to learn to play it faster. |

| I haven't listened to Paranoia in a while so I kinda got it hazy. Iron Man is easy to play though. |

| I heaven't tried to play "Iron Man" yet, but judging from the riffs in the song, it shouldn't be that hard to play.... |

It's not that hard. I mean I messed up (with every honking song I do) the first few times, but it's easy after that. Hell I could play it blindfolded with the guitar behind my back.

I have a crappy, pink, frilly, little girl guitar from Toys R Us that tends to lose proper tuning in a few days.
*Long, unbearable sigh*
I'm looking into buying a beautiful guitar at my local music store, though... It's like, $500 though. :C |

Any like playing blues, improvision? I'm going to be honest. Playing other songs is utterly boring to me :3 Improvision is where it's at though, you should check out some of those blues scales.

Anyone seen those new Gibson Les Pauls with auto tuners? You press a button on the guitar to tune it half a step down, up, sharp, etc.. |

Hmm you talking about the automatic one? It's like 6,000$ so I wouldn't dream of it xD. But I do have a Gibson Les Paul. EPIC guitars. I got it for 650$ too! My favorite guitarist is Slash, and Les Paul's his fav too. ;3 |

I got my guitar for $169.99 (thanks to a sale that Guitar Center had last month). My favorite guitarists would have to be:
-Jimi Hendrix -Slash -Dimebag Darrel (Pantera) -Dan Donegan (Disturbed) -Synyster Gates (Avenged Sevenfold) |

$500 is nothing.....
I clean my Wolfgang with $500 <.< _____________________________________
My family is poor. They only bought my guitar for, like, $90, because they wanted to make me happy by getting me a guitar, but they have to worry about food, clothes, gasoline, etc.
I have a lot of family members. Everyone in my family has needs. That's a lot of needs. So that's a lot of money.
So, a $90 guitar is probably the most they'd like to pay for a guitar. :/
I /was/ satisfied with it...But then I realized it's not the best guitar out there. Not to be ungrateful or anything, but, y'know. :I |
