does anyone else here enjoy modding instruments? guitars and basses in particular?

 

[erikrhys]

i modded my guitar a little, i changed the pickups, the pickcover, and head, so does that count?

 

[Paper]

well....i'm talking more on the lines of a fellow guitar geek....but thats ok, what P/uP did you replace your old ones for?

I'm a genius at playing a piano .I've been playing it like three years, but I play better thatn my friend who has played piano for six years . I can play also two other instruments, but I don't know their names in english (in finnish: klarinetti, nokkahuilu).They're some kind of flutes.......

the first one would be a "clarinet" i guess.... dunno what the other one is....

I play Guitar, Bass, and Keyboard

Guitar: Definetly what I'm best at I learned from a friend about 3 years ago.
Bass: Learned at a friends house but I recently got one so I'm getting better.
Keyboard:I learned a long time ago but I barely ever play.

I just bought myself a new sweetheart. . Gibson Hummingbird. . It wasn't cheap really but it's such a beautiful guitar, awesome sound and aesthetically beautiful!

Can't take my hands of her. Her name is Josephine by the way

I guess i'll add what I can play. Well obviously the guitar hehe, played it since i was ten (7years) and I've played the piano since i was like seven, my dad is a musician and a music teacher so he've taught me a lot! I'm also singing and next month I'm going to the local studio to record in a single and then send it to UCT in Cape Town as an audition for the Music Academy there. Music is my escape from reality!

I play guitar I started playing a few years ago but stoped due to lazyness but 6 months ago started playing again I'm learning with my father since he has many years of playing experience, he used to have a band when he was younger.

A friend of mine called me to join her band but I refused at least for now I'm not very confident on myself because I can only play alone or with few people or else ...

I don't know if I can call it playing but had anyone heard about "Fruity Loops" ?? It's a program to make beats, also I was playing in some Hip-Hop but eventually it wasn't meant to be that way xD.

If you like fruity loops or step sequencers try Abelton Live. I do most of my remix work with it. It has amazing time stretch so you can create tempo mapped mashups. I also like Reason 4.0 as a software sequencer.

But recently I got a MPC (What guys like Dre use...)
Production is hard work and involves training to be done properly.

I'm by no means a pro, but producing is an art.

I'm concerned that I never posted in here...

Any who, I can play clarinet (my trade), tenor sax (I suck), piano (decent), steel drums (I rocked), and set (would be better if I owned an actual set).

Today I tried to play the piano at the music room in my school I probably try it again some day. Even thogh chord formation and teory is same as guitar the postion of the finger is awkward.

Hey guys, I play the violin (below average x_x). Anyways, since I don't have a teacher anymore, I go around the web looking for scores of popular songs and such.

Also, I'm learning to play a decent vibrato :3 ~~~
