    what was your first guitar?

    My first guitar was a blue stained Johnson acoustic. It was like 80 bucks and it was right handed so I learned how to play it upside down for the first 2 years… Lol Then I had to relearn when I got my first lefty, that was a Johnson acoustic that cost about 80 bucks… 😂

    Happy birthday Jimmy

    Oh I know right? He was a beast in every aspect of his playing, singing, and writing. I could talk about it all day. Haha I know Syn just said something about trying to get ahold of the pinkly smooth master tracks and remastering them and that would be soooo awesome. Ah! That would be sweet...

    Solo writing frustration

    I usually start with just trying sing out a base melody and then once I put that on the guitar I will try to dance around that theme and figure out some cool stuff to put around it, but I’d say most of the time (since I’m not very good with theory) I do end up singing out most of the main parts...

    Happy birthday Jimmy

    Oh I miss seeing Jimmy stuff everywhere… 🙁 His humor and liveliness was an inspiration to me when I was in high school. I used to run around Yelling and messing with people like I saw him doing in all the behind the scenes footage when I was a teenager. Haha When someone told me at a party when...

    What's your dream guitar collection?

    What's your dream guitar collection?

    Oh god, I have wanted a left handed Gibson explorer since I started playing when I was 13. I saw Claudio from Coheed and Cambria playing one and thought it was such an awesome guitar. Only problem is the lefty curse… now it’s getting better than it has been, but the companies never make ALL of...

    Solo writing frustration

    Syn said at one point to try and sing a melody to what you are trying to write your solo to. That’s what I started doing and it helps a lot because You don’t really have to do anything technical to come up with a cool melody, you can just hum something to it until you think of something you like. 🙂

    guitar cables

    I used to have that same exact problem, my chords would last me maybe 3 months before they were conpletely dead. A friend bought me a Monster cable for christmas back in 2010 and I have not had a single issue with it, which is amazing to me! Lol I absolutley love the cable and if it does go bad...

    Volume pot/tone issue

    Hey everyone! So I bought a banshee elite from schecter a year or so ago and when it arrived the volume pot was close to shot. They sent me a replacement and I just soldered it in, all the wires are exactly how they were set up on the original pot but now when I plug in it sounds like Ive got my...
