I was just wonderin if any one in here played guitar. If so what sort of songs do you play. Any recomended songs. Ill admit im not the best at guitar i havn't quite mastered hammer ons yet and pull offs are a bit of an ass. I mostly play metallica songs and the cult are always a favorite. any way what bout you guys what do you play.

I pretend to play guitar but I suck. I play a little blues, some light stuff like James Taylor, and old Grunge songs from when I was in school. I own three beautiful collectible guitars though. They are my prized possessions.

Aye, I have always wanted to play bass, but never found the time to. I just would rather play my sax.

I've been playing guitar for about 17 years. Play mostly blues based rock type stuff these days, but was heavily into playing metal when I first started.

I've played the air guitar to AC/DC since I was 4 years old. I'm awesome at it too. 
Seriously, I can't play any instrument, although, I did prove I was able to learn how to play piano if I decided to devote myself to it years ago. I just don't have the attention span to do so, or the coordination to do so well.

I played the guitarr for a short period when I was teenager, that is during the Pleistocene. At that time, I used to play punk, new wave and similar, like Sex Pistols, Buzzc0cks, Velvet Underground, etc. I am sure I was horrible.

I play guitar, but I'm still a beginner. I've been playing for a year now and most of the time I'm just practising the chords. However, I know some songs of Bob Dylan, the Beatles, U2 and Acda & De Munnik, but you probably don't know them since they're Dutch

@CE: I'm sure you wasen't horrible, just trying to play that kind of music is fun, but I thought you were more into classic music.

I've played guitar for about 5 years now, and bass for about a year. i'm not very good, but i also mostly play extreme metal where the only thing you need to do is to play fast... got a beautiful 7 stringed ibanez guitar that i just have to brag about, it's simply wonderful to play on...
