    Default New guy all around here.

    Hi everyone, just wanted to introduce myself. I am a college student who has been playing drums for over ten years, and only a few years ago began playing guitar. Since then I've written quite a few songs, and have been playing guitar more and more. I was looking around for some advice on guitar purchasing and stumbled across this site, and, after looking around, decided that it wouldn't be a bad idea to join. So hey there.
    It's got six strings, right? What more do you need to know?

    Guitars: Breedlove passport D20, Ibanez SR400, Xaviere XV 820
    amps: Yamaha DG-60
    musical experience: drummer/ lead singer in punk outfit --> drummer/guitar/singer in psychedelic jam-band --> drums/bass/guitar/singer in folk band --> drummer/ lead vocals in experimental band http://www.myspace.com/adnascentia --> guitar/ lead vocals in indie band http://www.myspace.com/itsanoreaster

    Wasted?! Did you say wasted?

    Guys, we must be doing it all wrong. I mean if a noob can find a way to waste a few hours...we gotta get busy...or is that unbusy?

    Man, poor word choice on my part.
