Guitarists

Get your groove on and discuss what's happening with Oasis, or whatever the kids are down with these days.

I've never owned an acoustic, so i wouldn't be the best person to give you advice on them. Sorry :(
The thing with an electric is that you can get an acoustic-esque sound (although it would never sound as good) but should you decide to delve into rock or whatever, you can do that.

Possibly best to go into a guitar shop and ask them what they'd recommend

Roland Cube 60
Good amp, very loud 8-)

Whats a processor? For recording on a computer?
If so, my multi-effects pedal does that :)

TBH mate, I find with Gibson that you're just paying for the name. A couple of months ago, i was looking at buying one. It cost €1400 and i honestly couldn't tell the difference in sound between my Epi and it.
My Vintage only cost €500 and it sounds great, imo 8-)

i got a good enough processor and am more into classic rock, blues and jazz so dont need an exceptional pedal.. but somehow i feel that the distortion patches need to be tweaked a little and an add on pedal might just do the trick...

So...erm...Bump

I basically spent the entire day (besides being on here) trying to learn "Machine Gun" by Band of Gypsys. The tab i have is 24 pages long. I'm up to page 3. Even then it's not great :(

Need to have a band practice, haven't had one in months :(

I hate that man with a fiery passion :x


TBH, you probably be better off getting a right handed one (Unless you've already started playing)

They're cheaper and there's a better selection
