I will be getting a Wuhan china cymbal and a cymbal stand for my set for Christmas. With that, I will be able to give some righteous break downs the justice they deserve.

Merrrrrrry Christmas!

I started playing guitar a year ago and I started with an Ibanez Gio starter pack. What I might get later on is a Peavey Envoy and a Jackson Soloist SLX. I might get a harmonizer pedal and a wah.

I just got my first acoustic guitar. :tongue: It's a Carlo Robelli, my brother just randomly bought it one day, and never plays it.

I've only learned how to play Closing Time and the first part of Wish You Were Here so far.

Never been much of a Telecaster fan, but that one actually looks good.

If I had the money, I'd buy either this guitar: http://images.guitarcenter.com/products/optionLarge/Dean/DV016_Jpg_Large_515818.991_metallic_white_black.jpg

Or a carbon fiber acoustic. Probably a RainSong model.

Or maybe another Les Paul. I love Les Pauls...

I've tried a few Dean guitars and I didn't like them. Something about the feel of the neck. :shrug:

I'm a big fan of PRS Guitars though and I wouldn't mind getting my hands on http://www.prsguitars.com/sesinglecuttrem/

@OP, a friend of mine has a matt black Highway One Strat. It's probably the most comfortable guitar I've ever played, it feels so solid and complete that you could play it forever. :P It only has 22 frets though which is kinda annoying

Very easy to play. Easier than my guitar was anyway, I haven't played that for ages.

My girlfriend bought me a second hand Washburn Acoustic for Christmas. I'm trying to learn chords and easy melodies right now lol

If I could have any guitar it'd be http://www.ibanez.com/ElectricGuitars/model-EGEN18

Say what you want about Herman Li's music, but the man knows how to design a sixy guitar.

Yeah, I need to find a new air-guitar. It's been in some heavy use lately. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hXbQb91AbHw


More seriously speaking, I did try out the piano a few years ago, but I lost interest in it in just a few weeks.
