Guitar Player's Thread

great playing!


thanks much :)

:lol: The sweeps at the start were okay, but then everything about that video screams "I'm a 13 year old fag with a guitar" regardless of wether it was a joke or not.

lol i was just messing around. i started to do the sweeps but then i fucked up.


anymore comments on my vid would be much appreciated!

god im really pissed. because im obviously not going to get any sort of alexi anytime soon. so i need a great guitar thats not like 1000 dollars...looking at ibanez and shit. i like the whole "wierd different color" stuff, but those are pretty epensive. any tips on good guitars?
 
^ poor thing will die from ear explosion or something.

Oh yeeaaaah, after hours of practice I can now sing along to the chorus of stabwound while playing.
 
Ok, so I finally got my Xiphos 2 days ago. Here's a little review on it so far:

I think it's nearly flawless. The fretboard feels heavenly...its very easy to go up and down the neck. And it feels great to play when sitting down. Now the only problem I've encounterd so far is the position of the guitar when I try to play it standing up. The strap buttons are placed on the upper two fins and so when I stand up with it, the neck completely dives down. I know this can easily be fixed by drilling another hole on the other fin. But I've noticed Muhammed actually plays it the way it is. But it's just irritating to try to support the neck with your left hand while playing. ANYWAYS....aside from the strap buttons, everything else is great. The whammy bar is amazing cuz all you have to do is stick it in there and it stays very smug, no need to screw it in or anything. Very easy to whammy. The binding is great and the reverse inlays and reverse headstock look awesome. The bridge is very cool too, I don't know why ppl complain about it not being a FR brdige...the Edge 3 is very nice also. The neck-thru feels great for all those higher frets, makes it much easier to play there. Oh and the pick-ups!!! They sound absolutely fantastic and they're pretty versatile. You could just use the neck pick up and with the right settings on your amp, you could play some jazz. And the bridge pick up gives a killer sound. These DiMarzio activators are great imo; they even make my crappy 10 watt ibanez amp sound good. And they're probably better than EMGs, but I haven't made up my mind on that completely.

Ok, maybe I should stop now cuz I feel like I'm ranting a bit. But I have to leave you guys with some pictures....words can't describe the beauty of this guitar. I got the red chameleon, as you can see:

(And I ask you to please ignore the weird outfit I was wearing in some of those pics. Me and my friend maria were going to a party last night, and she chose my outfit :p)
