Why is playing the guitar so hard???

I've seen a website where this guy sells guitars specifically for bowing. They have a tighter radius and cutaways on the sides for bow access. I wish I could remember the URL... http://www.dramm.de/

Bow playing? That's Sooo yesterday...
I got a reed mouthpiece attachment. It makes the guitar sound like a Saxaphone, if you have a whammy bar, you can sound just like a slide trombone.
Another thing cool is the Accordian synthesizer. It fits in the crook of a flying V in a snap. It comes in handy for zydeco music as well as polka
and Tejano.

I'm really looking foward to the future, with advances in Genetics
we can have something that is part Gibson les Paul and part Chicken.
That way if you're performance lays an egg, it won't be so bad!

A little more straightforward and inexpensively, I bought a melodica.

Here's where I got mine.
:D

Guitar is strange... I don't know any other instrument where:

- You can take lessons from some nameless starving musician who's got better chops and / or knowledge than a world-famous "guitar hero"
- It'S gotta be the hardest instrument in the band (my opinion) but everybody and his brother plays it (fact)
- Clean technique sounds good - but sloppy technique often sounds better
- Something that one player can do "naturally", another player is never able to learn no matter how much he tries. Stuff like good sounding vibrato, picking technique, artificial harmonics, ...
- It's an instrument that's almost as personalized as vocals, you can usually identify who's playing by listening. No two guitar players can exactly match each other's technique.

... etc. ...

Playing guitar isn't hard. Making what comes out of it sound like music can be though. :P

Maybe when it stops being hard I will play at the beginning of the party

Don't do it - I discovered that it was me playing in the first half of the party that left everyone so drunk in the second!!! :lol: :lol: :lol:

Why try to use a violin bow, when you can use an ebow and get infinite sustain on notes?
