Surprized you dont have a Les Paul Leddy. I had an 82 and sold it like an idiot. It was Black standard with the cream outline. I now want the gold one that Jimmy played at O2. Nothing is better than a Les Paul with a Marshall. I dont like Fender myself because the strings are wider apart on the neck. Prefer Gibson necks. I also want to get another good acooustic/electric. Had a nice Ovation with the crazy cuts in the front rather than the traditionall hole in the middle. Forget the term-starts with an a. But I am thinking about getting a Taylor this time. Let me know if you have ever played one. I am going to go looking for a Les Paul soon. Want a standard. No way a studio. And the extra money for getting a Custom not worth it really. Right now Im stuck with an Epiphone electic I borrowed. and for acoustic an 89 Alvarez.

Nah I use to play a les and I hated the necks, I like the wimpy thin fender necks, far more playable !! even when it comes to listening to Page I prefer the first album and solo and on Stairway and For Your Life etc Tele and strat !! for the sound he gets from a fender guitar !!! However I do as i say have a humbucker pickup on my fender ! I have never played an acoustic/electric before.

drums, bass and bit of guitar-its fucken hard!

Well to play at the same time I guess it is <_<:rolleyes:

I don't have any bands (not that I don't want), I've only been in a school and choirs.

A play a little. Had Piano/Organ lessons for 4 years and I'm having guitar lessons for 5 years now. I know how to play (a little).

I own an acoustic guitar, a classic and an electric, and to broken classic guitars :D (I didn't do it, I just found them. I'm thinking of painting them and fixing them a little just for show).

I sing a little (choir or alone :rolleyes: ).

I used to play piano/keyboards when I was younger, but I haven't had access to one in ages so I probably wouldn't sound all that great anymore haha. I used to love to learn Beatles songs for some reason.

Currently I play guitar (I have a Mexican strat), but I'm not a huge talent or anything. I just play it to pass the boring days in the dorm because I am an excessively poor college student who would live off of Ramen if I wasn't an RA who gets a meal plan for free. :P

The first song I learned in its entirety was Tangerine, and it took me nearly a year of playing guitar before I could actually play an entire song. I have the attention span of an eggplant.

Anyway, here's a picture of it!

I play the piano as well as the guitar and clarinet, I was forced to play piano by the parents the clarinet was the only way I could join the High School band and avoid French class !!!

The guitar is my true love and pretty much all I play, I have played Strats and still have one but I love the Lester and she is about all I play these dayz !!!!

Guitar is the one instrument I really play. I tried playing the piano and clarinet, but those lessons failed. I have a great Epiphone Les Paul Classic, a crappy Epiphone acoustic, and a piece of shit Samick Malibu.

I'm planning on getting a Fender bass and either a Strat or a Tele.

Played guitar and bass for many years and taught guitar lessons for @7 years. Here are my babies, there are more but I don't have pics handy.

For whatever reason I can't get them to not be sideways :(

I've got a bunch of amplifiers as well. Marshall JCM800 (2205), Mes Maverick 2x12, and several others (mostly tube amps)

There's always something new to learn no matter how long you've been playing! :D

very true...I've been at it over 30 years and the only time i play actual "music" is at rehearsals or gigs or recording(unless you want to count working up a tune or writing)...the vast majority of the time I spend working on scales, arpeggios, even simple finger excercises I've been doing since I started..there is always more to learn

It's my dad's back yard in Rhode Island. He lives on a brackish river. It's beautiful in the summer.

Truly beautiful! The scenary and the guitars. The top one, the gold Les Paul, is it a standard or a classic? That is the guitar of my dreams. Im sure you have a Marshall to go with it?
