Here's my kit - And me................

Hi all

This is my Squier Affinity with it's little Marshall G10 40 watt amp and the RP50 processor



Picked it up off Ebay for £100 after being let down on another one
Real happy I got this one though as I think with that amp and the RP50 it was a good deal

The amp although small can put out quite a big sound, especially with the boost button pressed and the gain turned up

The RP50 is really good and can make some great and wierd sounds
40 preset and 40 slots you can make your own
Tuner and drum machine thrown in
If you haven't got an FX mixer or processor on your electric - get one - Worth every penny
Also as they contain their own pre-amp you can plug your headphones in the back an play to yourself without having to lug the amp about

This one is me trying to get some sort of a listenable sound out of it



I try and pick it up for a few minutes as often as I can rather than have one big session as if I play for too long now things do start to ache a bit
Hopefully once I build things up I will be able to play for longer

I know I didn't quite get all the left hand in, but any observations on hand position and angle would be well received

I can play some simple solos with it but I am still having big problems muffling strings forming chords

It will come though

Hi there

Great looking gear . Dont worry you'll be able to play as long as you like, in future. Your hands just have to get used to the feel and the stress (actually there should be no stress !!! ) i'm posting a link to a video of correctleft hand positions. (though i've done before on the forum)

Hope it helped.

Rock-on !!!

The GfB&B Guitar Slide Rule

Download the PDF of the 'Guitar Chord Slide Rule', print it out, fold it together and you'll have at your disposal a very neat tool that will not only show you all the positions for the main flavors of chords, but will also teach you a very important lesson about how the guitar works... It consists of a folded sleeve and six double sided inserts, instructions for cutting it out and folding it together are included with the PDF ... it's very simple to do, and if you botch it, you can simply print it out again!

Buy it now for only $10
