Today is rather dull. In comparison to most other days, anyway. I don't have much to say for that, so lets talks about guitars. I've been playing ever since I could even hold a guitar. I started taking guitar, and music for that matter, seriously at the young age of 8. I've put some of my songs onto an actual CD before. I've accomplish some big goals. I didn't make any money out of it though, DRATS! Seriously, I at least can say I did what all the other pros have. I'm still young, who knows how much farther I'll go. I've been out of the loop of my music for awhile. I'm on downtime between bands as of now. I'm just practicing to myself and searching, freely, for a band that suits me best. Thats the hardship of music. Finding other people with such precisely similar tastes as you. Well, I got off of the guitar talk, so.. I own a three thousand dollar guitar. Which I bought at a flea market for 175. What a steal! It's a 1970 Ibanez Stratocaster. The whole thing is custom. It really is a relic of time. Short story of the business, Fender made the first Stratocaster and had the rights to it. Ibanez made theirs, and got sued for doing so. So, there's not many under the Ibanez label. Of course now all you have to do is change the sizes of guitars within millimeters and you won't get in any trouble so this really isn't a concern anymore. Yet, aged guitars have a unique sound. This one is well built, althought made in Japan. However, it's not like it was manufactured in a factory. Ibanez is obviously a Japanese name, it's all hand built. I got really lucky. However, I want to sell it. I have another guitar, and I need money for a car, ha! So I'll probably sell it, buy a car, rely on my back up guitar and wait for a band until I buy a brand new guitar. That's it for my 10 minutes. DA-DA-DITTY-DAT-DAT THAT'S ALL FOLKS!
PS
Go me and my inability to listen to instructions and posted this as a reply. XD Even the greatest of diamons are flawed. So, pft! Anyways. Question to all of you, do you play any instruments? If so, what do you own? .. and how long have you been playing for?

So. I guess Im first, since you did ask a question.
I play the drums, learning the guitar, and I sing... if that counts as an instrument? I've been playing the drums since 5th grade, I have kinda lost most of my knowledge to the drums since then, so I only know the basics. The Guitar... so ya I decided I wanted to actually play an instrument that wasn't just hitting something. I have a guitar, if I rmemeber I'll comment this again with what kind it is... I just know I'm not very good at it yet. Then vocal stuff... hmm Ive always been singing, everyone probably has. Some just don't have great voices, Im deffinately not saying I have the best because I know I dont. Anyway, I took voice lessons the last to years, but with everything going on right now I don't think I'll be taking any lessons for a bit.
I Think I answered all of your questions? HaHa..
See you in Class
