Thinking I may have hung em too high :(

A Gibson ES 355 goes for about $4100 :eek: The Epi version was $700 and I bought another $400 in parts - it'll be a Gibson in all but name... and umm.. value of course :P

[Mr.Scott]

Middle: Epiphone ES 355.
Nice. Very similar to the Gretsch 6122. Me like. :)

Don't know any of the ones you guys linked too :P sound easy enuf to figure out though :)

[GFDuke]

Smoke on the Water is the first tune every kid that got a guitar in our era learned. Your 60 you should be awesome at it. How about some Lynard Skynard?

[Witchdoctor]

Or something with a higher degree of dificulty ................. :ohcrap:

some old chit but good none the same, not so much guitar stuff............

[GFDuke]

yea Eddie Van Halen is notorious for those rippin licks. What a guitarist. :thumbsup: had a lead guitarist in our band back in the day that could just rip him off so good you'd swear Eddie was right there.

Umm Philly....The Doors are legends to the extreme. Jim Morrison ftw.

[MaadDaawg]

Smoke on the Water is the first tune every kid that got a guitar in our era learned. Your 60 you should be awesome at it. How about some Lynard Skynard?

first song I learned was "Little Red Riding Hood" by Sam the Sham and the Pharoah's :P

IIRC Smoke on the water came out when I was in college :laughing:

Lynard Skinner isn't difficult except using only 1 guitar player it don't quite sound the same. Maybe when i get the recording stuff and the looper hooked up.. maybe :rofl:

Doors are easy... eVh, ain't going there lol

[MaadDaawg]

Did you hear how MOrrison died? According to Mick Fleetwood, he spent the night fucking some groupie then locked here naked in the closet and went out and partied all day. When he came back later that night and remembered to let her out, she was so pissed she stabbed him to death. They put him in the bathtub as part of the coverup

See, you learn something everyday! I would have put Eddie VanHalen Eruption but it was takin. I seen VH in Buffalo a few years back, just after Eddie's tongue cancer when Valori left him. The best concert I have ever seen, and Ive seen a few! :)

[Witchdoctor]

May want to throw down some Jimmy Page riffs bro .............. :thumbsup:

[MaadDaawg]

got lots of those my brother... he and Carlos were college years guitar hero's of mine :thumbsup:

my main focus though, not to bum you all out to much, is going to be more bluesy than rock n roll :P

[GFDuke]

I wish i could hook my Keys up to the pc and dub in with ya. I love to play the blues.

[MaadDaawg]

I think there is a way to do that now. Heard something not too long ago about it but didn't get the details. Would love to jam with you if we could work it out :thumbsup:

[Mr.Scott]

Dam Scott, you are an old bastard ......... :laughing:
Kinda. :laughing:
Mostly lived with my dad when I was a kid, and he lived in a time warp, so it kinda soaked in.
People say Elvis was the king of rock and roll, but he wasn't. IMO, Chuck Berry was.

[kikicoco1334]

hey um...
MD, i forgot what i came here to say anymore but here is two video for you...

When I was 19, I had a 69 Camaro SS with the HiPerf 375HP 396, that I had completely modified to somewhere around 500HP. L88 cam, solid lifters, 4:56 rear end, polished ports, the whole 9 yards.

I picked up a girl at the local McDonalds one night and took her out for a ride. The whole time she kept talking about how she liked little sports cars, like the MG, better than muscle cars. Finally, I had had enough.

I turned onto this deserted road I knew that ran parallel to a major thoroughfar, stopped the car, turned off the headlights, wound up the engine and dropped it into gear. She SCREAMED her ass off all the way up to 100+ mph :rofl: I enjoyed every second of it, but unfortunately her tits didn't fall out of her top :wtfsign:

Drove back to the McDonalds and threw her ass out of my car. Never saw her again :D

nice vids kiki, thanks ;)

[kikicoco1334]

McDonalds? that's a wrong place to pick up chicks dude!
but yeah......
69 SS is my fav year of all time!

[MaadDaawg]

back then Kiki, McDonald's was THE place to pic up chics lol

[kikicoco1334]

oh...

i have not went to that place or eat thr food in like 3 years now

[Mr.Scott]

Hey man, did you see an Ibanez guitar hanging on my wall :blink:

My only question is, does he have to make it look so damned easy :wtfsign:

:laughing:

[Mr.Scott]

Hey man, did you see an Ibanez guitar hanging on my wall
OK, I deserved that. I knew he was pro Ibanez to start with, but when you have those kind of skills I don't really think it would make a difference. :laughing:
Just need to practice wax on, wax off.

[Mr.Scott]

Believe it or not, I saw Joe B when he was just a kid (like 10 or 11) playing at talent shows right here at the House of Guitars. He's actually a local and grew up about an hour from here near Utica NY.
He has natural talent. You'll like the show.
