sounds fun, but not right.
i'm really having fun with the killswitch i installed while rebuilding my squier (thanks again Siminov) i just learned playing the lead intro melody of SPOR's Levitate

(starts after 22 seconds)
just came to me to try it, i recon with some guitar effects i could get it to sound exactly the same, but it's close with standard distortion at least.
[QUOTE=Nonikai;27896549]I remember when I subconsciously played guitar for nearly 10 hours a day
everything I did that required sitting down meant I would have my guitar in my hands

guitar straps are amazing things

I hope to god you're tuning that at least a full step down then...
Why would I? Got a truss rod for a reason

Your local hospital and dermatologist are going to love you with all the finger repair they'll be doing.

Unless you're really serious about that no-bending thing I still think it would be hell on your fingers.
Why bother bending when I have no frets?
[QUOTE=Dopey Trout;27898532]Why bother bending when I have no frets?[/QUOTE]
I can't [i]not[/i] bend when I play. It's just something I always do, dunno why.
Bigger gauges are an advantage when you're playing fretless. Since the pitch is dependant on accuracy, having strings which you can barely bend help keep the pitch close. And you can still "bend" by just sliding

It doesn't sound the same though. Not quite.
That, and almost all of my vibrato is finger vibrato
Not on a fretted instrument it doesn't. Listen to violin vibrato, it's the same concept, it's more like rolling your finger

Like with classical guitar right?
I can't do that to save my life :saddowns:
Kinda, but it's most apparent on a fretless instrument because the miniature movements directly affect pitch, rather than it translating to a smaller amount of vibrato thanks to the fret
I got back on the whole "Learning Dream Theater's In The Presence of Enemies Part 1 (The Heretic and Dark Master) and I discovered in the two week absence of learning it I gained the ability to play the super fun shred part that I couldn't play before, not I'm up to the second super fun shred part in the song and this'll take some time.

I found out today that if the band I am in wins a battle of the bands contest next month, we get to play a big gig with at least 200 people there. Unfortunately, it happens to be on the same date that I'm seeing an Iron Maiden show. Cause I live on an island I've booked flights to the airport in the city, hotels, ticket and all is done, and I don't get anything back if I cancel it all :smith:

Believe me, Maiden is most definitely worth the sacrifice.

Me and one guitarist are going, which leaves them with the original lineup they had, so they could still do it, but there is some stuff they couldn't do without us, such as Thunderstruck.
I guess we'll have to wait and see what happens at the battle of the bands.
Was at my friends house, He played his 6 string fretless and I played my strat.
It was so fun playing smoke two joints. :v:
Going to try to get back into the habit of playing for an hour and a half a day again
Not going to be easy

I only do it, without meaning to, once I'm confident with something..
Which I suppose is normal :v:

Also when I'm playing, as soon as I realise I'm bending notes I stop doing it for a while.. weird.
mokkan you should get awesome and then we can jam together

The free time I have I'm content wasting on this computer...
Maybe once mum starts her diploma thing, she'll be studying on the computer three hours a night, so something will have to fill that time
Learn AC/DC songs
Then I can be Angus Young with my SG
You guys all talk about playin everyday while I didn't play my prs for a week (with a break of 2 weeks before that) :saddowns: It started to get me psycho all like "Uhg guh I need to play my guitar or else I wasted my money on something I don't use" and that's the reason I just take a break from everything :smith:
[QUOTE=En-Guage V2;27911186]Learn AC/DC songs[/QUOTE]
I'm thinking I learned the chorus chords for You Shook Me All Night Long.. and I learnt the intro to Thunderstruck... Which was a fucking bitch...
No I took a huge break recently
Couldn't be fucked. Picking it up again starting tonight though. Playing for half an hour after dinner, another 1/2 hour later and then one more
