When you have fake nails applied to your right hand only because your real ones break all the time

Immature? Of course I'm immature Einstein, I'm 50 and in a Rock and ROll band.

...you see an attractive woman playing guitar and you think "Wow nice Martin D28"
And then you think, "I'd like to slide down her G-string" :roll:

But she'd probably make you use a metronome. :lol:

When you wished you were in charge of Camera man filming Chuck Berry on Saturday's BBC4 1972 concert.

You find yourself willing him to stay on that guitar so you can see Chuck's chord changes. No! No! forget the Duck walk! stay on that guitar!

frustrated guitarist or what!

ps I did get to see the hammer-ons of Chuck's pinky though! And no it wasn't his ding-a-ling.

this one just happened yesterday...

You know you're a guitarist when your sister-in-law comes over and asks "what's up with all the guitars?" and you don't understand what she's making a big deal about. :o

I only have 4 - an accoustic, an acoustic electric, an electric, and a seagull m12 (my precious).

When you tell your wife "I'm going to the store" and she responds "don't you dare buy a guitar."

Note: you don't say "i'm going to the music store." Or "i'm going to the guitar store" or anything like that .. just "i'm going to the store." It could be any store, it doesn't have to be a store where guitars are sold.

Of course what's really irritating is that you were so planning on coming home with that used Gretsch you've had your eye on ....

When I get tired of playing my Burns, I'll sit down and watch the tele.

I started with nothing - and I've still got most of it left.

Sometimes I talk on the tele while watching the tele.
