wow, that guitar sounds just wow

good job though

 

thanks bro

 

awesome dude

 

Yeah that is one awesome guitar. Forget about your mac lol

 

Those are my favourite guitars Gibson ES 175 Gold Hardware and Ibanez GB 10 (George Benson's Guitar)

 

Hehe, I like the guitars too!

 

Do you play guitar Sam?

 

Nice song!

Man, that guitar has a really sweet and warm sound, even with the mini humbuckers. I see you like hollow body guitars, eh? I've always wanted to play one of those.

That Ibanez George Benson is beautiful, looks really elegant.
Ibanez and Gibson make some of the best guitars around. I used to play Ibanez RG and Gibson SG guitars

 

Yes, I do, tyronne! Not professionally by any means, but I can . I play piano and clarinet better though .

 

I see you know quite a lot about hollow body guitars and Mr Benson

Love to hear you play please post some Garage Band audition.

 

You obviously have ears for music please let me hear some of your stuff.

 

We got musicians here aye? I play drums sax and guitar. My favorite of my three axes is my '95 gibson sg standard, i picked up 3rd hand from one of my sisters friends. They replaced the bridge brumbucker with an emg 81 active which (doesn't matter to me) but was a critical error by them. Modifying the original Gibson parts drastically reduces the sale value, Which in turn Guitar Center quoted $200 but i willingly payed $250

EDIT: Nice work on the song by the way.

 

Oh man, I would love to record something but I haven't played a guitar in about a year or 2 by now (I had to quit playing guitar to focus on college and work). I can't wait to finish the college to start playing the guitar again!

Besides I still don't have a Mac. I'm waiting for the MacBook refresh to pick one up

 

Thanks bro....

Love to hear your stuff... u got any tips on how to play along with drums? Timing with drums is awesome and hardwork for a newbie like myself.

 

Me too lol i am in the same shoes... gave up playing guitar but i collect them ... pick up your guitar man and fire her up you'll love it.

 

I'm suprised you don't have a Gretsch. Those are (in both mine, and my brother's opinion) the best hollow body guitars you could ever hold.

My brother bought himself a Brian Setzer Hot Rod Gretsch, and it is very sweet. We had some connections to get it for a deal though, otherwise he wouldn't have been able to afford it (Especially on the Army pay he was receiving when he bought it). This summer, he took it to a well known hot rod builder that he became friends with, and got it pinstriped. It now has his own personal unique guitar.

 

Tyrone, excellent music production. A bit short, I would've loved to have heard more. That's what Apple and the Macintosh are famous for, music. Umm, it might be time now to change your signature, you are an official Mac head. It doesn't look quite right to preach how much you love Macs, post pics of your new iMac, create a post saying that you bought your daughter a Macbook Pro and then have a sig professing your love for Alienware and Vista.

 

I also would loved to have heard more.

 

I didn't know anything about the Gresch when i grew up i never even heard of them. I am a George Benson fan and also the Gibson ES 175 fan.

THe Gretsch never interest me at all i seen it at the shop i thought it was one of those epiphone gibson wanna be sorry for saying that. I just dont know much about them.

 

Lol i was thinking bout the sig before but my wife is too busy she can't do it for me right now. I don't know how to use photoshop lol.

Sorry bout the sig ... i have to change it soon anyway i got a refund so i am going to be upgrading to the m17x Alienware instead.

 

I never like plugging myself , but over at GraphXService, we do custom signatures, avatars, wallpapers, etc. for free and no credit or watermarks necessary, just for the sake of it . So you are very welcome to post a request there for a new signature!

 

Thanks bro i'll head on over and make some small request then thehehe thanks mate.

rep 2 ya.

 

Hey Sam is it possible for you to please merge this thread with my other Garage Band thread thanks mate.

playing a really really nice guitar is one of the best feelings ever. i personally play very little, but like you Sam I am fairly good at the clarinet. Before I semi-quit I could play all of the classical standards + some other random stuff.

Do you still play your clarinet Sam?

 

Drums are there for two reasons and two reasons only, To keep time, and to give accents wheather they are complex solos or just simply crashes in between guitar licks.

 

Thanks for the tip

 

If playing along with drums seems difficult then you need to step back a little, and give the metronome a try. After you feel comfortable creating your lines as to where beat one is, or where 8 bars end, or 16, then you can easily fire up a drum track and just enjoy playing without having to worry about basic time skills...

 

THanks CDnalsi for the tip....

Your timing on your track is so perfect i wanna learn that skill

 

I'd love to pick up a guitar an play it but I know that I won't be able to put it down ever again . The guitar is an old addiction I've had since I was 15. I still have most of my guitars, safely put away (really far away, for the sake of my studies ).

Gretsch are really fine guitars, but they're HUGE! I had the luck to try an old Gretsch White Falcon about ten years ago and, for a thin 15 yr old boy who plays a small Gibson SG, that Gretsch was a monster of a guitar. I haven't seen any other Gretsch guitar since then so I still imagine them like that

 

ohh man play 5 minutes a day it will help you guitar is so beautiful to play

I also don't pick up my Ibanez GB 200 much even though it is the top of the line George Benson guitar, it's too big for me.

 

Naw, one of the corks broke and I never bothered to get it fixed . I should .

 

Your wife is hot.

 

Thank you

 

In rock drumming the snare should be on beat 2 and 4 with straight 8th notes on the "hi hat" or "ride" cymbals. And for the sake of the thread i'll post pics of my drums and guitars.....

 

Here are the pics

 

Thanks for the tips btw nice set of drums and guitars

reps 2 ya

 

Thank you

 

Here are some new songs i made under 2 minutes today

from drum to bongos bass guitar riffs and lots of other stuff you maybe able to hear

As I was reading through this thread, I could not believe no one had mentioned this before.

 

Nice vibe on the track, mate! But you can totally hear it's loops, and the way they sit on top of each other. No worries though, that's how you train your rhythmical sense and get started!

 

haha you got good ears man a true master.

i am getting to know Garage band

 

Thanks bro nice of you to say that.
