How about you teach me, send me a step by step tut.

[putis]

Lol, that'd be hard to make, and most likely hard to follow. In-person lessons would be much more effective.

[dopesmoker]

bass for about 12 years guitar for 8

[putis]

For some reason I find that hard to believe.
In any case, what type of music do you play?

[Mystic Videl]

Lol, that'd be hard to make, and most likely hard to follow. In-person lessons would be much more effective.
Tisk tisk, Putty that sounds like a date. xD Lolz.

[putis]

According to mapquest (from Miami to Tyron) just over a day.

[Mystic Videl]

According to mapquest (from Miami to Tyron) just over a day. Plus the time at a hotel I would stay at because I'm too lazy to drive that long.

[TheBlackParade]

Videl, go to www.ultimate-guitar.com, they have lessons for almost everything (although if you are serious about learning, just find a private teacher somewhere)

[putis]

I'm selftaught.

[TheBlackParade]

nice, that takes longer though -_-

putis, whats your gear?

Mine: Schecter Elite 4 String Diamond Series
and some ****ty practice amp -_- (im saving for a cab)
i also use a Digtech Bass Processor and borrow my guitarist friend's band's bassist's cab for my gigs with the same guitarist who hes in a band with (hes in both our bands)

[ScAreCroW]

I play a multitude of things

Guitar (Bass, Acustic, Electric)
Clarinet...****ing nerdiest thing I've ever done
Bass Clarinet
Alto, tenor, and baritone sax
Piano
A little drums
And A little trumpet

That's it. The only one that was with the school was the clarinet for one year. The rest I had to teach myself because we needed them for certain songs in my old band

[putis]

Basses:
5-string Ibanez- Don't really use because one of the pick-ups is busted.
4-string Epiphone Thunderbird (http://www.musiciansfriend.com/product/Epiphone-Goth-Thunderbird-IV-Bass?sku=518398)- What I usually play.

Effects:
Boss Overdirve/Distortion pedal- I like the overdrive, it gives a nice broad fat tone when I need it.
Digitech Synthwah Pedal- Has 7 different effects- auto-wah, the talking thing, reverse talking thing, lots of cool synthesizer effects, envelope filter being my favortie and the one I use most.
Something Reverb/Delay (it's chi's)- It can be fun.

Amp: Hartke 300 watt head and a Hartke 400 watt Cab., but I'm only getting 200 watts out of it. I need a bigger head to get the full 400 out of the cab.

[TheBlackParade]

[putis]

Been saving a long time huh?

[TheBlackParade]

[Mystic Videl]

I'm preparing to buy a new computer. I want a new piano but that is incredibly expensive.

[putis]

Keyboards can be quite cheap though.

[TheBlackParade]

not if you want a decent one :/

[putis]

Well, in comparison to a piano.

[TheBlackParade]

oh, i see. still, a good one will be around 750 - 1000 $

[Mystic Videl]

Yeah... but I want a real Piano, at least a baby grand. I'd have to save up though. Between house (utilitys and loan payments -.-), car, gas, and food, I only have a little bit left over.

[ScAreCroW]

My grandmother has a grand piano. I have no idea what it's worth but she's gotten offers up to $70 000 for it. Inheritence much?

[Super]

Lol, here comes the noob:

a little piano (I know major chords lol)
Drums: 2 weeks (just got a drum set)
Bass: 1 month (I dont have a bass anymore :sad:)
I like to think I can sing, but i gotta wait for this puberty thing to end.

[putis]

Lol, singing is 50% balls.

[Super]

Lol, singing is 50% balls.

My voice isnt high pitched (I can sing the low e no prob), but I want it to get deeper. like roger waters deep.

[putis]

This thread is hella old.

[Super]

I have a deep voice, but I'm not so hot of a singer.

It could all be in my head of course. I recorded my voice and I absolutely hated it, not because I hit the wrong notes but because it's obvious I'm 15 when you listen to it.

[MiNeR]

I'm a proficient bass player of 5 years.

Me and Fish Beans should jam out sometime.

[phantoma]

I'm a bad piano player and thats about it.

I would like to learn guitar but since i'm a lefty its been kinda of a hassle.

[White Tiger]

5 years of guitar.
1 week of piano~!
lifetime of singing me gosu singer :D

[Tensaei]

Probably a month of piano/keyboard, and a year of Stomp.

[putis]

Never stopped Hendrix.

[p00onu]

Same here.

Baritone: 3 years
Trumpet: 3 years
Didgeridoo: 5 years ^_^

Spoons r teh pwnage.

[putis]

Dude, I love the sound of a didgeridoo. We should get together and jam.
Seriously though, record it and let us all hear.

[Super]

Never stopped Hendrix.

Ya, it was the sleeping pills in this case.

[putis]

Ya, damn vomit, it got Joplin too, and in the same year (and they were the same age).

[Super]

Isnt there like a list of musicians who died at the same age or something? I remember seeing it at a poster store. I think 26 was the age they all died at.

[Evil_Himmler]

i play guitar electric or acustic and bass. used to run my own band 30 Second Tomorrow.... till i had kids lol

[putis]

Isnt there like a list of musicians who died at the same age or something? I remember seeing it at a poster store. I think 26 was the age they all died at.

27. Hendrix, Joplin, and Morrison. All the same age, within a year I'm pretty sure.

[Evil_Himmler]

putis you forgot to add cobain to that list. ;)

[Super]

putis you forgot to add cobain to that list. ;)

He said within a year, so cobain wouldnt be on that list because he was 3 when Hendrix died.

[putis]

No, but he died at 27, which is I'm sure what he meant.

[Otaku]

I took piano lessons for a couple of years, and that's about it.

My voice is kinda deep, but I completely suck balls at singing. I think the last time I sang was when I was forced to in Choir (required class) in 6th grade.
