Hi everyone!

I just joined. I moved to jhb (Randburg) a couple of months ago, and struggled to get time to play. Since I don't really know lots of people here I was actually looking for a random jam session, when I stumbled on this seemingly live community of guitarists...

I'm 25 and I've been playing for around 12 years (although I realy need to get some practice ? ). I started out playing classical guitar (played some exams and such, all good fun), but the music I enjoy most is a bit more heavy. I currently have a trusted 12 year old nylon string guitar, a Cort EVL Z4B bass (with cool pentagrams!) that I really want to learn to play properly, and my favourite, a black Ibanez RG 1550. Since I haven't really played in a band yet (an absolute shame), I need some practice with real musicians. I'm sure I'll find someone here though?

Looking forward to a forum that might actually be worth participating in!
    Welcome! Enjoy the forum.

            what style of music do you like to play?
            I mostly just mess around with some heavily distorted deep riffs. But I like to play some metal solo's and would like to improve my improvisation skills. I also like acoustic, and have a soft spot for classical guitar music. When I still met regularly with some friends in Pta, we played a lot of Metallica, some Offspring and the like. Some of my favourite bands would be Metallica, Smashing Pumpkins, Tool, Radiohead, Live (Throwing Copper, Secret Samadhi etc.), Deftones, Muse, Fokofpolisiekar... Not necessarily in that order though.
              Welcome to the forum and Jozi........sure you'll have lotsa fun!!!

                  unfortunately while the forum is active, GAS is contagious... everyone here has it.
