Hey everyone... I found this forum by accident while googling for a Epi LP Studio and thought I'd join ?

I'm a 26 year old programmer in Bloem who recently decided to get out of a funk and start playing music. I was fortunate enough to score a Japanese Fender Strat (from my fiance who no longer plays) and have been playing for about... 8 months.

Like all guitarist, I think I suck... but I still love to play and pratice each day religously.

So hi. 8)
    Greetings fellow axe grinder!

    Welcome to the forum and I hope you learn plenty cos theres plenty to learn here!!!

    I take it from your user ID that youre a Lacuna Coil fan?
      lol

      I get the Lacuna Coil comment alot. But alas... not a big fan... I've had this nick since... about 1998 before I even knew about the band. So it's just a cool coincidence.

      BUT, I am a HUGE Jack White fanboi... .*passes out*

      ?

      Can't wait to steal , learn from everyone
        welcome , you sure will learn lots here .......
          Welcome. Enjoy the forum!

                    Welcome! (Lucky bastard! Just 'getting' a Strat from your fiancee...)

                    Bloem = Planet Rock? Makes sense!
                    No offence intended, I like the place and I'm a bit of a rock myself. ?

                        ...yes well all the really cool kids play concertinas...
                          Welcome, from a born Free Stater and ex-Bloemie, now living in the Cape. If you ever decide to sell that Fender, please tell me! Enjoy the forum!
                            Haha welcome Lacuna. More people who play Xbox 360 and guitar. ? Maybe we should fuse the two forums into one big conglomerate (that word is being used in the correct context right?)
                              Hey guys... thanks for the welcome man.

                              And yes, this is planet rock, but for all the wrong reasons ?

                              And yes, I'm a walking stereotype, programmer, gamer, guitarist (well not yet really), etc etc.

                              I higly doubt I'll ever sell Hennie (the white fender), but if anyone is intrested in gifting me a LP Studio, please don't hesitate.

                              BTW: My other gear includes:
                              • Tanglewood - Acoustic - Electro
                              • Marshall Park 40 Watt amp
                              • Korg AG5X multifx pedal
                              I'm also in a mailing group from a bunch of xbox friends where we submit cover songs/homework assignments every 2 weeks.

                              Does the forum have a place to upload recordings?
                                Hi Lacuna. Welcome.
                                I lived and studied in Bloem for 6 years and we had some serious rock bands there in my time (90's). Left it for the Cape a few years ago but still have some fond memories.
