I'd define "play" as taking up 33% or more of your total playing time. Acoustic? Electric? Or Both? You are at GuitarMasterClass.net Don't miss today's free lick.

It's just something about the acoustic sound that makes me feel good. You are at GuitarMasterClass.net Don't miss today's free lick. Plus all our lessons are packed with free content!

It would be both if I had a nice full sized acoustic, but probably about a 2 to 1 ratio in favor of the electric still. You are at GuitarMasterClass.net Don't miss today's free lick.

Acoustic takes up about 15-20% of my time, so I think that I really play acoustic aswell, but apparently that's not enough for you You are at GuitarMasterClass.net Don't miss today's free lick.

I feel so guilty when I pick it up too because the strings are all dingy and old Then I try to play her and it sounds like crap, so I just put her down and don't touch her again for a few months even though I have a brand new pack of strings sitting there waiting hahahah You are at GuitarMasterClass.net Don't miss today's free lick.
