I use:

Epiphone Les-Paul special model. A very good guitar for crappy punk kids. It's light as a very light guitar (not that it's of poor build quality or anything) and it has a comfy neck. Sounds ace too. Doesn't have any crazy controls like other Les-Pauls either so thats a plus. Also doesn't have the switch in that awkward place near the neck. My second guitar and probably my favourite one I've had.

Fender Fat-Strat. It actually has the sexiest slimmest neck ever. Like Ibanez have Prestige necks that are meant to be like "the shit" but this one is well better. It sounds awesome for clean stuff if you use the neck and middle single coils together. Doesn't really sound THAT good on distorsion but i want to put in like an EMG crazy active humbucker in it.

I also had a shot of a BC Rich mocking bird for a bit. Never used it after the first time i played it. It is actually the worst guitar anyone will ever play. I had a squier strat which was a million times better than it and y'all know about squier strats.

I also use shit plastic strat locks that suck.

Make sure your strap is attached properly. One time my one came off the guitar at the bottom peg and the other end hit me in the head. Machine heads hurt.

Even if you think your guitar is poop make sure you have quality cables.

Join a band. Anyone who thinks they're not as good as they reckon they should be, or could be, should join a band. Or if that's not really an option, just playing music with other people will help you improve. If you're in a band it will MAKE you want to be better.

Don't learn from text books. They WILL bore you. The best way to learn is from other people.

I s'pose that's all i can say I reckon.

He sucks.

Who you really want is MR SMITH!

This guy s he fucking dictionary definition of "coolest teacher you will ever have ever".

You look that up and you'll see a pic of good ol' Mr. Smith.

Also Mr. Steve Alan is cool too.

DUDE!

Put up the disco milt one!

Well in "back in the day" for me the same bands exist now.

The only thing I wanna say about "back in the day" is that the shows were a lot better.

He's a fat smelly bastard that ACTUALLY made me want to puke after trying not to breath when he's standing next to me.

The only person I've ever met who smells bad enough to make me wanna puke.

A common misperception!! If you have good technique then fingers can be just as fast!!

Dunno bout that like.

The stinkin' galleries won't let me upload any pics because it's being shit at the moment.

I have fucking tonnes of them including an animated DANCING milton.

Fuck yeah. I'll upload em now to my gallery but if you want the dancing one i'll have to email it to you or something.

When I played bass in Gilman I always used a pick on a P-Bass for a super punky sound which i prefer, helped by the use of a pick.

With picks you can play faster.

I thought DW (drum workshop) drumkits were meant to be the shit no?

Hahahahhaahahaha.

No I haven't had the operation yet cAmie.

Why don't you just buy an accoustic and play it safe then?

Mine was fucking rad.

It was like three years ago with Quik, Sirius, Point of Origin, and Flight 19.
