How many hours do you play in a day/week/month?

Post by ANGEL OF DESEASE »

I'm playing about every day. 1 or 2 hours, it depends.

In the last years was very different the situation. In 2007 I sarded playing guitar too much......in 2008 I re-embrace the spirit. In 2009 I really back to be addicted.

Now I feel bad If I don't touch guitar almost every day.





you guys?

Not that much really. I should start soon though, I've got a new guitar coming which is bound to get me back into the swing of things.

That's what I'm getting. I wish it didn't have that slightly lop-sided body but everything else on it is perfect so I can learn to love it. I know it's like that so that Gibson don't sue them into oblivion but still. If you want more information, it's a Schecter Hellraiser V-1 :santa:



AOD, I'll listen to your exercise when my computer isn't being fucking retarded.

I get on alright with them, I tend to sit classical style anyway so I just 'hook' the V on my right leg and commence jamming.

Im shamefully sporadic, always have been, some weeks nothing at all, other weeks 2- 3 hours a day every day. I always play much better in rehearsal/jam situations than alone, I have goldfish attention span.

Thomann. They've had to order it in though so they don't even have it themselves yet. I emailed them yesterday just to see if they had any idea when it'd arrive. I haven't heard back yet, but I'm not exactly in a huge rush to get it, it's not like it's a christmas present or anything. I know once I hear that they've dispatched it it'll be here in a couple of days :xx:

If you like that fretless noise, look up that hard-on bearer Bumblefoot I mentioned in another thread. He does some fucking crazy stuff on his fretless. The song Raygun has some really weird crap in it.

Basically the wings on either side of the Bumblefoot guitar pop out whenever he lowers the tremolo. I've got the Live At The RMA gig he did on dvd and he gets asked what they actually do.

BF: "They open. When they open they open"
