Guitar...my favorite hobby. I love just jamming to my fave songs and improvising. I learned when I was 16, that was 3 years ago. I taught my self everything I know, learned to play just by learning songs by my favorite bands. Eventually I got good enough to now, where I can make up my own stuff and improvise over certain chord progressions. I like learning at my own pace, rather than someone else teaching me. Plus I don't have the time or really the dispensable income to get lessons. I find it more satisfying to teach my self. I feel a lot more accomplished.
Here's my setup
Schecter Damien 6(it's so BA, it's got pearl bat inlays) w/ EMG HZ Pickups(great pickups)
Line 6 Spider III Amp 30 watts. Awesome amp.
Digitech RP250 Effects pedal. This thing has so many effects and amp models its ridiculous.
Standard Strat modded with Seymour Duncan Invader pickups and my own personal paint job, of which I am very proud.
I like metalcore, hardcore, alt rock and new school punk rock type stuff. that's where a lot of my influences come from. My style is quite a blend of varying styles, it's kind of a cross between hardcore, with a tinge of 90's punk rock and includes something that reminds you of The Edge from U2. That's the best I could describe my style.
Guitarists I list as influences
Tom DeLonge(by no means great, but he's in my fave band, and his style has heavily influenced me)
Jimi Hendrix(do i even need to say anything?)
The Edge(i love what he can do with the guitar and his sound is epic)
Tom Morello(love his style, very unique)
