    I play mostly fingerpicking classical on acoustic steel strings

    I own a martin DXME dreadnaught and a washburn rover travel guitar.

    My favorite pieces to play are some ~6 minute long flamenco-ish thing I learned from sheet music a few years ago and have since forgotten the name of, and classical gas.

    One of these days I'm going to pick up a classical nylon string guitar and work hard specifically playing flamenco. Right now I'm focusing more on learning to play 10-hole diatonic harmonicas.

    Re: Who plays guitar?

    I play drums a little bit. Buddy of mine and I are working on putting something together for iTunes release.

    The real star of my family is my little cousin, Willow. She's just turned 12 or 13 (her birthday was a couple days ago).

    I have been playing guitar for roughly 17 years now. I play mostly metal. My strongest influences are definitely northern European style progressive/folk/death metal (ala Opeth, Soulfallen, Agalloch, etc). I would consider my style to be fairly similar, although I haven't been in a band in several years. My rig is, and always has been, fairly simple. My main guitar/setup for the past 10-12 or so years has been an ESP LTD EX-400BD with EMG 81/60 run through an early Peavey 5150 with Peavey XXX 4-12 cab with Celestion Vintage 30's. I occasionally run a Boss MT-2 up front with a Boss RV-5, DD-3, CH-1 and GE-7 in the effects loop. Fairly straight forward set up. For practice around the house I use a Roland Cube 30X. Neat little 30w solid state modeling combo amp!

    My wife said she wanted to learn bass a couple years ago so I bought her an inexpensive Ibanez Soundgear bass and a Marshall MB-30 (I know, horrible amp). She never took to it, so now I occasionally spank her bass so it gets some love too.

    Re: Who plays guitar?

    I play a bit. I own 3 Gibson Les Paul's at the moment, a Fender Telecoustic, and play through an Orange Tiny Terror. Not playing with a band at the moment. I have a Digitech GNX3 multieffects pedal, and record into my PC for fun. I have several midi instrument packages installed, that I use to jam along with. Mostly play old school metal, and mess around with a bit of acoustic and classical.

    Here are a couple of recordings I've uploaded to Soundcloud:

    That Alpine White one is actually a 2009 Les Paul 'Studio' model (no neck or body binding). It's a great player, and I love the ebony fretboard. The white Gibsons typically begin to turn more into a cream color as they age.

    I've got some generic electric guitar and mini amp but I also have a schecter Damien 6 and a peavey vypyr 75w modeling combo.

    Thing is I have zero clue where to even start learning how to play. Seriously. I've had both guitars about a year now and can't get motivated because I have zero clue where to begin.
    'Tics, burms, balls, and geckos. A bunch of them.

    Re: Who plays guitar?

    my hubby plays, and our boys are learning....our 12 year old amazes us daily....

    Hubby has a Taylor 214 ce Acoustic and a Schecter Damien Elite Electric, when he runs an amp we have a Classic VTX series but most times he plays through the Yamaha emx312sc sound mixer and yamaha speakers that we have....I love watching him play...I keep telling him I need to learn to play bass...or something, I feel so left out...
