Been playing for about 4 years. A friend of mine showed me some things on his classical guitar, and soon after I bought my own classical. I've never had lessons (unless you count the 1 or 2 riffs my friend taught me).

I've never played a 7-string...I'm wondering for those who play 7-strings...how often do you use the high B and E strings?

Only on the weekends for me. And I'm in the process of cutting down (not that I was a heavy drinker in the first place).

A quick response to the Korn issue, as that was the original topic. I own the first 2 Korn albums, as well as the "Issues" album. I haven't listened to them in very long time, and I will not dismiss someone who happens to like them. While I think they are heavy, they don't seem to have the...

JesterRace, Good reponse. Thanks.

Yeah those "melodic death versus grind-noise nu-core experimental death metal with a cherry on top" posts are quite...annoying...

Can someone tell me what the deal is with "black metal" bands painting their faces, putting on dark clothes, and putting chains and spikes everywhere? I would think playing in your normal clothes would be a lot more comfortable? Then again, maybe that's what they wear all the time? =) Ok...

How about the pickups though......

The screws which hold in the pickguard have rust on them, as well as the pickups. What is the best, safest way to remove rust from these areas? Thanks!
