Hey Guys

Hi,

As u can u see, im new here, just registered today.
Though i have been playing the guitar since the summer of 2000 ( wen i was 13 ), i never really took it seriouslytill almost about 2 years ago, wen i noticed a very good friend of mine pick up the guitar and in just 5 months play very fluently. It was in a way very inspiring, so i decided to get serious, though i still dint till about the start of 2005. I dont really know where i stand in guitar at the moment, though i have improved and have a better understanding of the guitar(have acted cool in front a couple of dudes ), though i wanted to learn more, i cant get through to the guy who normally teaches me.

Thats about when i stumbled acorss this site, after check out the Kris's Zakk lick on youtube ( with the moustache and all ).

Hope to progress alot in here!

Bye.

Pedal to the Metal baby yeah!!
