If you see your gif playing once you post, try to use a smaller thumbnail and if that does not work use a different approved host.

    I always check views vs posts. It lets me know which Phunners are really gonna check out something new and possibly contribute. Not that anything I post is geared towards that. Mainly music for me and I could care least about the rest. I feel bad for the thread starters. AM I saying this right?

    I played in various nondescript groups in my middle teens....all about my age and all local. I would never consider myself a professional, but more of a hobbyist.....we were paid very little and most of our gigs were Friday/Saturday nights at various Fraternity house parties.

    well, easy story. I had a woodwork class scheduled over 2 periods, and at the start of the 2nd period I was supposed to go and play.. not a chance in hell to remember that, and when I asked for the guitar lessons to be moved to a better time, they refused.

    not much of an option there, either quit or miss every lesson

    Now you, if you don't mind? What influenced you to start and what did you prefer to play?

    Shortly after my 12th birthday, I found a broken guitar in a trash pile.....I retrieved it and took it home, fixed it, spent my first month paper route income for some strings and a few beginner books on playing the guitar and just started. My parents had an old upright piano that my much older sister played that I also played by ear. I continued to mess with the guitar for about a year, then bought a used, 1957 Les Paul solid body guitar with a cheap, piece of shit mini amp. That is when I began to seek out others to play with. I have always liked what is now considered to be classic rock n roll....late 50's thru about 66. I traded in my Les Paul for a custom ES-335 Gibson. By then I was also working summers and was able to purchased two, Dual Showman Fender amps and began playing paying gigs....about $10 a night plus tips. I always had Gibsons and would use medium to medium/heavy nickel flat wound strings as there was no finger squeak and a less twangy tone than standard strings....I prefer a more bluesy sounding RnR.
