I got my first guitar when I was 14, it was an Ibanez GTO, some piece of crap starter pack guitar that cost like $100 with an amp as well. Shortly after getting it, I never seriously played it and when I decided to wanted to become serious about a year later, I got a Fender Strat. and went from there. Then I wanted to be more "heavy" so I sold my fourwheeler and bought can $800 Schecter C-1 Hellraiser which is the best guitar I have right now. Anyway today, I picked up my first guitar for the first time in like 2 years and played it and it actually sounds extremely good and is very easy to play on. The pickups don't even have a brand but they sound really good lol. It might be my new favorite guitar of mine...Anyone else have a similar experience?
i got a used mockingbird that had gotton the headstock broken off and it plas great, i dont think the headstock affects how the neck plays though
never happened to me but...i dont know how that could have a better tone than a hellraiser... hellraisers have great tone IMO
Maybe you just got better in playing or something. Maybe the new guitar isn't good for your playing at all and the old one is?
Yea schecters usually have amazing tone! i did this with my old jackson.. once i got my schecter i never touched my jackson but when i picked it up i was sorta like.. u know this aint so bad..
I got a cheap Yamaha pack from Costco and it was like $150 (US) and it came with an amp and tons of other stuff. Its got fairly good tone, the amp obviously sucked but it doesn't sound too bad and the necks a lot faster than you would think.
EDIT: This post is about swinglines picture in his signature... just to make it clear why I post so strangely
I really like that "idiot of the year" picture haha
So funny, appearantly a big moment as it's being filmed and there's a camera flash aswell. And when he runs off his buddy throws coke (not liquor I hope) on his back haha at first just tries to help by wiping the fire off with with his hands.
Wonderful! That burst of fire coming from his mouth is cool too.
Sad really but I can't help laughing
My first guitar is kiddie size.
It has a great sound for gipsy improv
My first guitar was a Behringer strat copy, and it sounded like ... well, crap But it was ok to start off with, I was just thrilled that I had an electric guitar
But I do know the feeling when you pick up an old guitar you haven't played for a long time, and then just sit around playing it for hours.
cheap guitars are sometimes really good, just look at SRV Lenny strat the original was bought in a pawnshop for 350 dollars USD.. pawnshop owners never really know what they have...
My first guitar was a Squier Stratocaster from the all famous Fender Strat Pack
It played nicely, but after a while it just started to give out on me
I ended up buying an Ibanez ARX-320 after that one for $320, it's lasted me through my insane guitar projects (if anyone remembers my double guitar )
