Yeah !! 
I'me just waiting to have the transplant to give me another six sets of arms, so I can play them all at once 
but, currently I think two of those guitars are in need of major-ish repairs, and can't be played at the moment, not that they could anyhow as I only have three here with me at University, the rest at my dads 
I will survive though, getting new amp at christmas probably

I just wish I could play

Ming Mang Posted Aug 17, 2001
So do I!!
And only having mum's old acoustic that she bought second-hand 25 years ago doesn't help with the whole learning thing...
¦M¦

Well, I've been playing something like aobut 10 years, but there is always room for improvement, being self-taught, I've got a lot of bad habbits that are very difficult to get out of Are you going to save up for a new Guitar? Christmas present?

Ming Mang Posted Aug 18, 2001
Well, I've only been learning - teaching myself like you - for a few months now, so I think I'll struggle on with this one as I may decide just to quit altogether and I don't want to have spent a lot of money on a new one if all I am going to do is stop playing it... and plus, I'm a stingy little miser...
And my parents won't get me one - too expensive.
¦M¦

Good idea, I remember loads of friends deciding to learn to play when I was younger, and buying equipment, only to give up after a few weeks cause they couldn't immediatly play as wwell or what they wanted to It takes a while at first, but its perserverance (spelling?) thats needed to begin with

I wish I knew how to play at least some type of musical instrument
I tried piano when I was in about second grade. I took lessons for about four years but never got very good
No musical ability whatsoever

Awww!
I know the frustration of the piano... I've been trying to learn for nigh on eleven years, and still I am crap. *sigh* Determination to learn it is failing.
I'd say try something like the flute, but only cos I can play it and am biased...
¦M¦

Phreako Posted Aug 18, 2001
Flute?
I have a feeling that would probably end up worse then the piano. Besides I would rather learn how to play the guitar
Welcome One and All [preferably all, one get's a bit boring when you have to speak to yourself...]
Ming Mang Posted Aug 18, 2001
Ah well. Like I said, I'm biased.
Have you tried learning guitar?
¦M¦
Welcome One and All [preferably all, one get's a bit boring when you have to speak to yourself...]
Phreako Posted Aug 18, 2001
not yet. Don't have one
Somebody showed me a few chords once on theirs once but that was a couple of years ago so I'm sure I have forgotten by now

Ah well.
Life, as they say, is life.

Maybe sometime I will learn. I guess I am just too lazy
Life is just life the universe and everything

Ahh, laziness. It can stop people very easily.

My father has an old hunting horn, not that we have hunted, and he claims to be able to "play" it but he can get some realistic "farting" noises out of it actually its quite an elongated horn
