Steely knows about my goth Les Paul (not a Gibson, just an Epiphone), still play it but not as often as I would like.
I tried out some of the Epiphone goth series but the quality/feel wasnāt right and the pickups output was too weak, very different from the regular Gibson goth series (which were some of the best guitars Iāve ever played)

Does anybody else constantly play air guitar when driving or just sitting around with music playing? Nothing major just kinda noodling to the music.
I always drive with my left hand on the wheel at the 8 oāclock position moving my imaginary frethand and my right hand strumming the top of my thigh or the shifer. My wife finds this kinda odd. I donāt even notice most of the time, too bad it wonāt make me a better player lol.
Curious if others here do the same thing.[/quote]
I always think itās funny because it is about the most practice I get.
holy shit, you guys rock!
I have been playing a bit more than ten years. I am currently playing a Fender Stratocaster American Deluxe model. I love it.
Here is a vid of me trying to do Sublimeās What I Got. i am singing the vocals, and the guitar improv really starts at around 2.50
I am a frustrated shredder. there i said it. haha
Lefty! Nice, man. Good quacky tone to that strat-- classic! (Iām a tone junky).

ah yeah that Laney Amp in the club really brings it out, then the pick ups on the deluxe model are the cobalt noiseless ones, but I donāt know, mine are still noisy. haha single coil woes.
thanks though! appreciate it from a tone junky!

yes! i just pretty much made that up on the spot. hahaha. there was no previous arrangement before we played that song, as in the break down parts, and someone just happened to be recording it that evening.
thanks I really appreciate it man!

Thanks man, itās an Ibanez RG 2120x with Piezo, itās probably the best guitars Iāve ever played in my entire life, I was really lucky to have come across it. Not sure what kind of neck it has but itās a tad thicker than the typical Wizard 2.
Excuse the lighting

No direct modifications just lots of patience with tuning for string tension and truss rod adjustments. In high school I got kids to pay me to set up their guitars for them haha.
Question, am I the only one who has used the same single pick for the majority of their playing career? I customized it and havenāt found a pick that matches it but was just curious if anyone else is as picky as I am!
