    Default Any other guitar players here?

    As the title says.
    1. How long have you been playing?
    2. What is/are your main guitar(s)?
    3. How about the rest of your rig?
    4. Do you play any other instruments?

    Me?
    1. I've been playing for 42 years.
    2. My main electric is a Paul Reed Smith DGT with a figured mahogany body (no maple cap), and the new bird inlays. My main acoustic is a Taylor 412 CE, and for church it's a Taylor Mini-E RW. (I am also the keyboard player there, and the Mini is much easier to move around behind the keyboard)
    3. My main amp for years has been a Fuchs ODS 50 watt head into a Mesa 2x12 vertical slant cab.
    4. I play guitar, bass, keyboards, drums, and a little mandolin.

    How 'bout y'all?

    I have a Takamine (the Martin counterfeit/copy) and a Les Paul Studio 84 or 85 I don't remember. I have a practice amp that has been tampered with by Captain Electro. Sounds like a normal practice amp until I hit the high button. Then it's sounds like a Marshall stack. Zoom affects peddle that holds about 30 preselects that I changed around some. Don't know how he did that. Been playin' since 92. No bands no fans just play for me and my sanity. I play a lot of Pink Floyd ( Gilmor) lics.

    Good judgment comes from experience, and experience....well that comes from poor judgment.

    I used to play donkey years ago, but stopped by lack of time.
    I just touch my guitar for the first time in a decade... it's an old Asama it's roughly that model

    I bought it second-hand in the mid-80s, I would guess that it's a late 70s model but it's really hard to find info on those.

    I wanted so bad to be a Bass player...had an American made Fender Precision 08 model Black with white pickgaurd and rosewood neck. Looked up(still do) to a lot of Bassist. Sadley time and age have caught up and so did reality. Couldn't find anyone willing to invest the time to really teach me(what I really needed) without breaking my bank. Just need time and patience and I think I woulda been half decent. You rock dude. Shout out to Darcy Wretzky (Smashing Pumpkins),Sean Yseult(White Zombie)Paz Lenchatin(Perfect Circle) Lemmy Kilmeister(Motorhead) Paul Mcartney(No intro needed) Suzi Quatro, Nikki Sixx(Motley Crue) and so many others I looked up too !

    Les Paul through a peavey 1/2 stack with a couple of pedals and a wah.

    Since having kids a few years back I play mostly kids tunes through a practice amp but when I used to have me time it was megadeth Metallica and Zeppelin
