Lord Storms

Only a nerd or geek would like videogames enough to join a clan...
|
Emperor Ocean
|
Thats kind of mean Storm, people can get mad if you say that but i guess its to late.
|
Lord Storms
|
I always could edit it, but I'm calling myself a nerd/geek just as much as the rest of the clan because in my opinion being a nerd/geek is a good thing!
|
Lord Metal
|
yah, i hate to admit it, but Storms is right.
|
Lord Storms
|
Of course I am.

I can finally play a song on medium mode! Sadly its Slipknot and it takes too long to get that far in the game.....  85-87% through!
|
Emperor Ocean
|
Hey does anyone use this? 
|
Emperor Ocean
|
Dude, I got my own electric guitar today! Your right Metal, it is the most beautiful thing I own! 
|
Lord Metal
|
SWEET!
What manufacturer?
Model?
Just 6 strings, right?
What kind of pickups does it have?
What scale is the neck?
How many frets?
What design are the fret markers?
What does the head stock look like?
How many volume/tone knobs does it have?
|
Emperor Ocean
|
I think its from Fender. Its only temp though til I become better.*
Starcaster.
yep.
I forget.
I forget.
If I counted right, ten.
Its hard to desribe it.
two tones, one volume.
The easiest way I can tell you what my guitar looks like is that it looks like the "Focus" (I think thats what its called) on GH3.
*My grandfather's cousin owns a guitar finishing business, I hope to get one when I'm better. They have a site, but I'll send you a pm with it cuz I don't know it off the top of my head.

Lord Metal

Ah, I know the Fender Starcaster. Semi-hollow body, hmm? I'd prefer the epiphone casino, but idk... you're choice.
Yeah, most fenders have a 25.5 scale... the Starcaster's no exception.
I'm pretty sure it uses humbucking pickups...
two tones, one volume? I could've sworn Starcasters had 5 knobs... might be a Squire.
And did you just say there are only 10 frets? TEN FRETS? THAT'S IMPOSSIBLE!
|
Emperor Ocean
|
Oh, uh, the frets. I was thinking of something else, it has 21-22 frets.
|
Lord Metal
|
22. what the hell could it have 10 of? O_o
and is it a squire or something, that it only has 3 knobs?
|
Emperor Ocean
|
Yeah, only 3 knobs, two tone, one volume. You still want to be in a band? How bout for a job?
|
Lord Metal
|
I'm IN a band... and Anna thinks me and her should write a song together...
what was that about a job?
|
Emperor Ocean
|
If I ever become good enough should we have a band as our job?
|
Lord Bane
|
i have a yamaha, not sure of the rest. it was only about $300. also, like the only thing i can play is the intro of crazy train.
|
Emperor Ocean
|
Thats way better than what I can do now.
|
Lord Metal
|
of course being in a band will be my job. and i can play the chorus to Cliffs Of Dover 
|
Emperor Ocean
|
Hey, what about me?
|
Lord Metal
|
oh don't be silly, you can't play any part of cliffs of dover yet. but you will be soon enough, the chorus is really easy.
|
Emperor Ocean
|
At least its a nicer post. I'm going to try hard while I'm out here, and hopefully get a teacher fast when I move.................again. 
|
Emperor Ocean
|
Hey Metal, whats the hardest part about learning cords? I'm learning nine now, but I think the hardest one for me is a c sharp.
|
Lord Metal
|
cords?
CHORDS?
and C#...? wtf? do you mean C#5 or something? idk which that is, though i'm sure it must be a bar chord. anyway, barring CAN be hard, if you can't squeez all teh strings hard enough.
and if you're in close enough proximity to here, i can point to to my teacher.
|
Emperor Ocean
|
Sorry, I'm still new to this. Not baring though.
|
Lord Metal
|
oh. then what's the fingering?
|
Emperor Ocean
|
You know I suck at explaining that! But the way he wrote it is "C" and like a backwards "F".
|
Lord Metal
|
that's a 7 you idiot.
let me guess, mute the low e string, third fret on the a string, second on the d, third on the g string, first on the b, and open on the e?
|
Emperor Ocean
|
Ok, I've gotton good at it now so its not important now.
|
Lord Freeze
|
Now i'm glad i play an easy instument. This whole guitar stuff sounds hard!
|
Lord Metal
|
nah guitar is easy enough. and yeah, sax is easy.
|
Emperor Ocean
|
I'm just learning so it does sound hard.
|
Lord Metal
|
you use chord diagrams, right?
|
Lord Freeze
|
Yup, sax is easy compared to this stuff.
|
Emperor Ocean
|
Yeah I use the diagrams I think.
|
Lord Metal
|
yeah, diagrams are useful.
Chord Diagrams + Tabs = success.
and freeze, you guys do marching band contests?
|
Emperor Ocean
|
I was told that I might need to change to lefty, or I can use a few chords lower on the neck.
|
Lord Freeze
|
Yes, we do marching band in the summer.
|
Lord Metal
|
well duh, considering you're LEFT HANDED! :/
and yeah, I love marching band. so much fun!
|
Lord Freeze
|
Umm...
Thanks?
|
Lord Metal
|
the left handed thing was to EO.
|
Lord Freeze
|
Oh!
|
Lord Metal
|
yeah, makes a bit more sense, then, huh?
|
Emperor Ocean
|
Yeah, the problem being with that my right fingers can't move like my left ones since I busted my arm.
|
Lord Metal
|
that's what you get for going on a hill... *snicker*
|
Lord Freeze
|
That happened one week after i met him.
How was your first time skateboarding?
|
Emperor Ocean
|
It sucks, but I can't avoid it.
|
Lord Metal
|
that happened like 7 years after i met him.
or something like that. idk.
|
Emperor Ocean
|
Who are you talking to?
|
Lord Metal
|
freeze
|
Emperor Ocean
|
Oh.
|
Lord Freeze
|
Oh, maybe i'm thinking about something else.
Sorry.
|
Emperor Ocean
|
So, whats up Metal?
