i myself have been playing percussion for 10 years...piano, drum set, hand drums, marimba are my specialties but i consider myself a very well rounded musician

i good bit of other people play too, i think there was a thread somewhere in the music forum about it...a few people wanting to start bands and such

what style to you play killer??

Killer
08-19-2005, 11:28 AM
well... plenty.... i only own an acoustic as of now... so nothing hard... but my style is some what dashboard/john mayer...
i love the sound of acoustic stuff.... but i've played in church, and i used to play electric... no lead only rythm.... (i suck :rolleyes: )

and i didn't see the other thread.. i'm a noob sorry...

lately i've been really yearning to play the guitar. i love how the acoustic sounds. imma end up buying a guitar. i'm a lefty(though not born a lefty), IYO everyone, would it be good to buy a lefty guitar or just work it with the regular right handed guitar??

and who would be willing to give lessons...or at least yell at me if i screw up the notes ??

so your a lefty... and a righty???
well right handed guitars are easier to find, and my guess could be taught easier... just my opinion... i have a friend that's a lefty and it's kinda hard how to show her stuff...

I've been playing guitar for 8 years, I sing a little as well. Nothing more relaxing than sitting in bed with a beer and an acoustic guitar.

I've got a Martin Dreadnought Acoustic and a Godin LG w/ Seymour Duncan Dimebag Derryl pick ups out back.

is piano/key board hard to learn... i play guitar and i've heard if u can do one... you can do the other??????????

is piano/key board hard to learn... i play guitar and i've heard if u can do one... you can do the other??????????
anyone with working fingers and a semi noral brain can learn to play....i see no relation between learning on the two...the finger(s) used for note would be totally different and not related and the guitar tab is totally different than piano sheet music...where did you hear that if you can do one you can do the other??? :confused:

Killer
09-16-2005, 02:11 PM
from plenty of different people.... and plenty of very talented musicians....

chuck
09-16-2005, 02:18 PM
hmmmmm, i played piano for 6 years and i tried guitar and it certianly wasn't a walk in the park...interesting

you sure they said that PLAYING them was similar not that they are just similar instruments (both use a struck string to produce the notes)??? not saying you are wrong, just kinda interesting...i'd like to know the similaritys, might help make learning easier.

Killer
09-16-2005, 02:27 PM
i hear ya... i can't play piano... but i'm pretty good at guitar...
and yeah i'm sure... i've had sooooooo many people say it... i think it's cause the notes... if u can hear the notes on one.. u can hear them on the other... which is true... i can play chords on a guitar and go find them on a piano very easily, but i can't play chords...

chuck
09-16-2005, 02:40 PM
ohhhhhhh, ok...makes a little more sense now. i was thinking like if you can look at written out guitar music and play it on the guitar then you should be able to look at some piano music and be able to play it on the piano...

but yeah, percususive and string instruments are best for training an ear...wind instruments and such can't really produce chords

I play alto sax and have doodled around on some other WW's. I think that once you learn to play it never leaves you. I have played for about 13 yrs. Well- I should say 12 years, because I have not picked it up in over a year. No time for it, and no room in my car....lol. I never thought about it until now, damnit.

I own a guitar and a bass, but I play a few other instruments. I know some basic piano, and I tried tuba in high school during band class when I would get bored watching 7th and 8th graders learn music.

I played trumpet all through middle school and high school. I quit because I hurt my shoulder playing sports. From that point on, every time I picked my trumpet up I screamed in pain. It was not fun marching my whole Junior year without an instrument. I do miss it though.
