electric guitar

[laura_g]

Hey does anyone play the electric guitar was thinkin of gettin on as iv always wanted to play it, is it hard to learn ?

[pjsaunders06]

na pretty easy learn the chords then learn to move the chords like to go from a to c etc then try to finger pick its quite hard but once you can do that you can do anything lol it took me about two weeks to learn

[Danr]

I've played for the last 5/6 years.

I wouldn't say it's easy to pick up, you just need to practice loads!

Would you say your musical?

Yeah i do love like electric guitar music love acoutic guitars too :y:

[Danr]

Well if you want to do it id say it's a great thing to learn. I love it, still play everyday. Its quite relaxing :)

[pjsaunders06]

i like acoutic a lot more better sound

[laura_g]

Yeah accoustic is more chillin just into more electric guitar the the time bein, thats why i want a guitar like just play when im bored

[Danr]

Since buying me acoustic i play it alot more than the electric. Find it easier to write on it tbh. Then transfer it onto electric.

Just learnt apologise (sp) by timbaland :)

[pjsaunders06]

Yeah more like a routine i know what your saying

[pjsaunders06]

yep took the fun out of it, i might get one agen some day

[laura_g]

yeah if you enjoy it you might aswell

[rey]

yep, played for the last 5 years and as Danr says, quality for relaxation, when you know how to play 'em!

Takes quite abit of practice, but when you know what your doing, well then the jobs a good 'un!

Acoustics are an easier first guitar imo because you dont have to spend out on the amp and decent lead, and the acoustic takes up less space, but then its all about what kind of songs your gonna want to play :y:

[Danr]

Agreed that acoustic is a better starter. Can still play along with alot of songs as well.

[Lee_P]

i can play tinkle tinkle little star on my elec guitar kinda left it at that impresses the women enough

[Saxo-Will]

I played for a few years at school. Learnt a good few Nirvana and Metallica songs and cheesy stuff like the darkness and mcfly cos everyone loved listening to it lol

now don't find much time, aint played it for about a year now lol

[Krys_23]

I've played for about 5 years *cough* for sale section my guitar :)

[Scott]

as above learn on the acoustic it will help develop finger strength and bit hard skin on your finger tips to stop tehm hurting:P

electric is easier on the fingers but i learned on acoustic before buying an electric and im glad i did it that way

[djrem]

guitar hero gets results quicker

however, you cant play it acoustically.

Hmmm, think i might get a guitar for xmas.

loads of youtube tutorials too

[laura_g]

Yeah a electric guitar is a good decoration though if you dont play it too lol
