Just wondering how many people play/are interested in guitar :lol: I started playing at 13, I'd ALWAYS wanted to learn but that was when my mother bought me one, my grandad and uncle play guitar so I wanted one of them to teach me- but they never got around to it <_< So I ended up teaching myself with a chord book I borrowed, it had a TERRIBLE assortment of songs(Oh Give Me A Home, Darling Clementine, etc) but it got the job done anyway :lol: The first chord book I got with decent songs a few months later was my Nirvana one :lol: I didn't realise yOu could get chords on the Internet til 2 years ago so most of the songs I know are educated gestimations

I am a stupid human being - Big eyed and between what I am And what I seem Life is real when your dreaming, life's a dream when your reeling “Why do people say 'grow some balls'? Balls are weak and sensitive. If you wanna be tough, grow a vagina. Those things can take a pounding” Facts don't care if you believe in them or not.

Been playing for seven years. I taught myself with a chord book too, lost it about a year later and just taught myself from there. |

I'm a classically trained pianist, so when I decided I wanted to play the guitar I picked it up really quickly. Haven't had lessons or used a chord book, but i'm lucky in that I have a very musical ear and a big knowledge of music concepts :). |

I started playing guitar about 6 months ago. I mainly learned through the internet and tab books. Learning guitar wasn't too hard, because I have a musical background (violin and saxophone) and a basic understanding of theory. |

You guys got beautiful guitars! I'm learning. Where can we find the best tabs for Hole songs? |

It depends. You should Google some Hole tabs and then see what feels more likely or more natural to you. |

I have a electric First Act guitar that my parents bought me for my 13th birthday, it's black with lines of white skulls in the middle of it. I've had it since 2007 and in February I finally decided to start teaching myself after hearing Hole and Babes in Toyland. So far, I've pretty much gotten Bernadine down even though I'm a little slow to go between chords. It's not the greatest guitar and the e string at the top is loose and no matter how I tune it, it just keeps hitting the fret board and making this horrible sound. But it's the guitar I have for now even though it's a bit old and been through hell, I'm still grateful I have it to learn with. I also named her Alice when I bought her because of my love for American McGee's Alice and how much I looked like her at the time.
