His dad gave him the guitar 15 years ago..... its been in his family for over 40 years.... awesomely (I know thats not a word but its all I can come up with) sweet rig....

Agree... I was extremely lucky to say the least. Thats like handing someone the keys to your Bugatti Veyron or something.... he remains married to music, and plays the guitar rather than stash it.... as he said, "it makes its own music even when its not being used... I can hear it"
I think he kind of got pegged for those pinch harmonics with Ozzy, outside of that I don't notice it as much... but yeah he's the real deal.
I mentioned Martin Sexton in the listening thread, what a combination with that voice and that guitar...

Yes. I have it for the PS3..and just like learning with a teacher, and not just a video game, you still need to practice. I find myself playing on it for two days, like a half hour each time, then not going back to it until a few days later. But overall, the game isn't bad. It won't replace a teacher, but it's a cheaper choice then paying $15 for a half hour instruction many times over.AvroArrow said:Anyone here played Rocksmith? I'm waiting for the PC version which is supposed to be out at the end of the month. Then maybe I'll actually be able to learn the guitar properly.
I'm at my wits end with my guitar amp.
I've got a Peavey Classic 50 212 but the damn thing has thiss peaker buzz/rattle whenever you put on the lead channel. It's maddening and no guitar shop has fixed it. I want to sell it but I'm afraid I can't sell it for anything in the shape it's in right now... but I don't want to spend money getting it fixed.
ie.
No fix = $400 (hopefully)
with fix = $550-600 - $100-200 = $350-500
I don't know if it will be worth it to be honest.
I'm itching to get a Hughes and Kettner Statesman 6L6

This guy was a major influence on me, the song as Hedges describes is about Naomi Uemura who disappeared while climbing Mount McKinley some years back. Hard to argue the title with a guitar like that...
Edit to add, the first time I heard this was from a 'soundpage' in Guitar Player magazine, anyone remember wrestling with them?

I know it might be obvious but Jimmy Page has to be the best "technical" guitarist ever.
