Awwww, Jacks :">

I will encourage anyone to learn guitar, I had to learn on my own and it was hard work to get where I am now (I will never be there but I'm happy) and I get a wonderful feeling that someone else is expeirencing the amazing feeling of those first chords and the feeling of creation from the heart

I don't believe you can pick up an instrument and just play it or learn it, there has to be passion.......there has to be fire in your heart..............you have to want it

And I believe I have it, and Jacks has it too, I also believe that those who keep trying, past the pain of the fingers and cramp and frustration.......if you get past it then you have got it, no matter how good you become, you have the passion to be everything you always wanted to be

And what ever anyone says, THAT is the bottom line.............

Play for you..........play for the passion from your heart

Man that sounds soppy

This thread is full of Passion. he he...

-- Teh Luv Teh Luv --

Anyways, been playing guitar since 1980, took about a 20 hours piano-lessons before the guitar but that was a kinda rip off... i thought piano was for Ladies and
guitar was the kick-ass stuff. ... I was young and stoopid, now im not so young anymore but...

Here's a thread about my music.

I highly recommend for you to get yourself a lil homestudio happenin.
All you need is a mic. (Shure-57) and some software.
Making own songs is really cool, and you'll learn so much just by listening yourself to play.

Software: (Available in our market, Kazaa..)

Cubase SX 1.06 , alltho i heard version 2 is just around the corner. There is other apps too, but Cubase is high-end stuff and pretty standard.

Waves 3.5 -> effects, reverbs, delays, etc.

If you get interested and need help/tips with this matter, PM me

One can DL midifiles from the net, import it to Cubase, and fiddle around, i find thats a lot of fun. Imagine, you could recreate the guitar-parts on your favorite songs, what a challence! Depending on the song, naturally...

Very nice jonno, although I think you could get a little lower on that strap, for the slash style....j/k mate, some nice legato, and you got onto the feel of the music, what i would reccomend is a few songs where its just you playing over a backing track rather than over the original CD, so we can really hear your tone, as Slash (being Slash) tends to play a hell of a lot louder than the rest

v.nice though, I liked the glass slide section of welcome to the jungle as well, doing good my friend

[JONNO_CELEBS]

Yeah I have the backing tracks for some, as I did with sweet Child, it's only me and a backing with no vocals or lead
And Apache is just me and a backing.
The rest are done over the cd tho I have got the backing for all of them but I could'nt find my cd's, had a tidy up and put them somewhere safe

As for me strap...........they both slung as low as they will go I'm 6'3" and I could'nt bend any further on sweet child without falling over

The glass .......Yeah well I could'nt find me bottle neck either

Cheers m8

Oh yeah, got them all

You need a Wig, and tighter Leather OverAlls... ha ha
Piercings, a Hammer or two hanging from ears etc...
Snakes, lotsa snakes, you gotta have snakes man, it aint r'n'r if it doesnt have snakes, and explotions, big ones, Hot Chicks, fire, Helmet or some sorta mask...

hehe, if you can pull those out, send them files to Axel Rose, i heard Slash aint into
Guns and Roses anymore. (i could be mistaken)

Playing is cool tho.
