I've been playing for a little over six years now. Used to play a Squier Bullet Strat and now playing a Schecter Standard E1.

Me and a couple high school friends started jamming together a while back, been having lots of fun doing that!

I had a guitar when I was in my teens, a long time ago..... but with big hands and hockey player fingers (broken and 'unique') soon realised I was not going to be the next Carlos Santana or Stevie Ray Vaughan and lost interest.... diverted my interest to cars and car racing and never picked up a musical instrument since. But I like music .

Lifelong guitar player. Not a collector, although I have a few collectables. I do play all my guitars.

I don't play anymore but I have a few ukuleles (probably from the 60s or 70s), a 1960 Fender Musicmaster, a 1987 Gibson SG, a mid 90s Ibanez EX series, a late 90s (I guess) Ibanez RG570(?), an 80s Kawaii bass (Alembic copy), a 1985 G&L L-2000 bass, a mid 90s Ibanez EX bass, a 1998 custom fretless bass, and an Antoine Violette 3/4 scale upright bass.

I’ve been playin guitar for about 25 years so far. I’ve been the lead guitarist of a local metal band for 10 years until it disbanded. Today I was officially announced as the new guitarist for Black Phantom, a local metal band. I will be part of their third album set to recording later this year. Beside this i have been studyin improvisation for many years and playing also jazz rock fusion. I own too many guitars…
Ibanez rg prestige 5220, ibanez rg prestige 7 strings, a jackson rr1 american from 1992, a pink jackson strat american from 1985, a japanese esp eclipse, a japanese jackson king v, an indonesian semi acoustic ibanez, a japanese charvel xl 650, a fender strat american standard 1995, and more…

A racing site with a music forum? The best of both worlds for me! I've been playing guitar almost as long as I have been into cars. I gigged for about 30 years but am currently taking a little break from music to pursue some other interests. Still have a ton of cool guitar gear I've collected over the years.

Oh you'd be amazed at all the things we discuss on here. Go into the Off Topic section and you'll find some real gems ;)

For the record, I had guitar lessons for a while but I didn't get on with it, so I gave up. I'm more of a singer than a player.
