My Dad has been gradually divvying out his horde of guitars and gear for my brother and I. He’s still has a lot of living left to do! The only one I bought is the Martin in the second pic.

I know it’s a lap guitar, but can anyone tell me about the make or model? Maybe possibly how old it is? Any help would be very appreciated!

Currently trying to get my head around triads and arpeggios aswell as how to integrate them into solos, is that all I would need?

Went to turn on my amp this morning and this is all it’s doing. Slight electrical smell with it too. Is it my power supply? The wuffer?? I swapped the negative and positive snips on the wuffer but still having same sound emit. Amp is a Line Six Spider II, seventy-five watt

What are your thoughts on this gibson sg? Apparently bought from las vega for someones daughter but she didnt play it and sat collecting dust

I've been a fan of Tommy Thayer since I love black and blue and his 2 albums in kiss. I was wondering as I see some players doing this similar technique of holding the pick. I think it's 3 fingers? It looks like he uses either his middle finger or index to support it. Is there a reason why some players use this?

I saw some of him playing when he does legato his hand is a very smooth motion.

Seems like I finally found it! After using everything, including Blue Chips, I started using the green tortexes, learned about how a thicker pick can impact playing, gave the new reissue Adamas Graphite picks a try (which are essentially plastic with barely any graphite compared to originals Jerry played), those were great but slippery, even with Picker’s Grip applied, went back to green tortexes, cuz that material has amazing grip, then was recommended the thickest Gator Grips, pick nirvanna. The black Gator Grips have the best of both worlds, the thickness and control of the Adamas, and the feel of Tortex, in a slightly smaller shape, amazing picks. Two mm is the way with Gator’s.

What do you guys think? He wanted an sg

Never in my life had i seen a guitar this expensive

Where do I get one. I've looked everywhere but I can't find one

Thank you👍

I've always loved the iceman design and wanted to own one for years but always been better with the drums so couldn't really justify buying one, but my job has given me access to a 3d printer and I've had this neck for a few years now doing absolutely nothing so thought I'd make onej

Really really happy with the outcome :D

Got this 61 reissue and just got it back from my tech who did some work on the frets as they were uneven.

He also did a huge favor and stained the paint chip where exposed wood was. As it was a floor model with a blemish as looks like someone dropped it I got 500 bucks off :D

Trying to repost my interactive fretboard app here. My previous post was removed because it was considered self-promotion. I don't think it is: I wrote this app for fun and because I personally needed such an app to visualize vasrious scale fingerings. I'n not interested in money or any other rewards. Just enjoy this tool, it is entirely free and will remain free forever.

Presented with the utmost humility. I just thought it was kinda neat.

Day out with the wife and friends to local flea market and stumbled across this Limited Edition Washburn. Not really a Washburn fan ( not anti either ), but couldn't resist this one. Plays, feels and sounds way nicer than I expected. Kinda fell for the roman numeral inlay. Always room for just one more :)

I’ve very happy with how much progress I made with this song but it’s still not perfect. Is there anything else I can do to try and make it sound better? Still trying to work on timing and stuff as well. Thank you!

Just replaced the strings on this guitar with bigsby with the same set, gauge and brand as before (Solez Strings), but I've noticed that they reduced the wound part and now the D string is looking like this.

Any problem with that? Will I have some trouble with this?

Squire Affinity Stratocaster

I've been wanting to pull the plug on this for a while now. I have an acoustic and ukulele but there's something about an electric guitar that hits different!

For me, I mostly focus on rhythm. The problem is sometimes my strumming hand is not totally coordinated - so I’ll miss beats or I’ll play too fast. I try to lean into this a little bit and just have a slightly goofy or awkward or uncoordinated sound, but I think overall it sounds ok. Do you have any challenges playing guitar? How do you mitigate them?
