How long have you been playing guitar?
Why did you start playing?
What was the first song you learnt?

For me it's:
- About 4 1/2 years.
- Offered lessons at school when I started year 7, and my best friend already played.
- Complicated by Avril Lavigne, lol.

i have a bass, and i love it dearly. i have been thinking about names for it, but none strike my fancy. i started playing because i listened to fat lip by sum 41 and at the time, sum 41 was awesome for me (then they released underclass hero, which, to me, is crap compared to their earlier work).

ive only started playing around 4 months ago.

my first song was all the small things. YAY!

and i just started learning guitar too (because i like being overloaded), and i learned to play Iris by The Goo Goo Dolls.

All the small things was one of the first songs I ever learnt Smile

all the small things is really really easy on bass

i got mine for christmas last year and when i got home from my moms i just got a tab off the internet of I Miss You cause i loved it and taught myself how to read tab and I Miss You in less than 30 minutes

All blink songs are easy on bass,but who cares they sound awesome Very Happy

Ive been playing about 4 or 5 months now but i cant say im very good at it!
I started playing because one of my friends played guitar and recomended I do it, and for the simple fact that guitarists are cool lol
the first song I learned was Faith No More by Zombie Eater =]

Subject: Re: Your guitar playing.. Wed Aug 06, 2008 9:23 am

i've been playing the guitar for about 4 years now, i can play all blink/greenday songs
they all get really easy when you've been playing for about 2 years or more.

3 songs that i'd recommend to beginners are: - what's my age again
- adam's song
- basket case (greenday)
not all the small things 'cause that's a really boring one to play Laughing
