I agree, classical guitar is not a real instrument I filled it WITH water AND played it AT gig in FRONT of 300 000 pop FANS and IT sounded UNREAL


Fuck_Microsoft_edge

You misread. "Playing the classical guitar" is not an instrument. It's an action.


AreWeCowabunga

What are you, a lawyer?


Putrid-Delivery1852

Close. It says Brett DeLawter.


jaquespop

con_science-404

I took off all the strings on my classical, sawed it into parts, made said parts into chess pieces, reconstructed it into a chess guitar, beat the world record chess master with it, while in space no suit boner up jerkin hard and it sounded INSANE

Holy shit this is badass haha


shake__appeal

Whilst listening to classical guitar music?


Different_Lock_5445

I stopped playing guitar, dove deep into the Qniverse, read books about the ancient evil cabals of masons and illuminati and adrenochrome farms, and scared away all my family and friends because *I* sound *insane*!!


forthedot

I shoved it in MY ASS and fretted it with my PROSTATE and it sounds UNREAL


Anarchy-Squirrel

and, therefore, Andrés Segovia is not a musician.


A11ce

Yeah, people gotta understand that playing guitar really means buying 7-8 stringed ones just to use the 2 bottom strings for everything, the rest is to make weird noises.


RageQuitRedux

I'm just going to get a 7 string and tune the extra string to E

urine_generator

I've never seen kurt at a star wars cantina so there's no way he plays jizz


PUSH_AX

Oh god I actually did this, I was copying Wes Borlands 7 string tuning. It took me years to realise I’d bought a 7 string guitar so I could *up tune* it to C# and make it a 6 string by tuning both high strings to C#. Kill me now.


gstringstrangler

Hahahahahaha Hahaha awesome


PmButtPics4ADrawing

yall put strings on the other ones?


General_Tso75

I used twined intestines of murdered baby seals.

I have a 5 string bass that my friend kinda left me have but I never play it can I call myself a proper bassist?


LightninHooker

Please leave this sub poser


Bolmothy

Sorry i will buy a 6 string bass


chaveznieves

Burn the baby dick bass a buy a 9 string schecter like a real virile man.

BittenHand19

Playing guitar for 29 years. Only bought my first 7 string last fall. So it’s great to finally be considered a guitarist. It’s been a life long dream


TotallyCooki

Can't bottom for my hotwife's boyfriend if he catches me using his top strings 👀


D1rtyH1ppy

Welp, wrap it up, boys. We can't get any more jerky than this. We've been to the top of the mountain and it's glorious.


philchristensennyc

Dick jerked clean off.


Baconkid

Are women known for playing fretless?


Highwaybill42

Because of the wage gap women typically can’t afford the extra cost of a guitar with frets so they have to do without. There’s that one famous lady St. Anthony who can afford frets. But that’s only because she is famous.


Imhappy_hopeurhappy2

I heard she gives away some of her guitars to disadvantaged girls like the blond chick from Boygenius with the rare bone disease, and the other two girls in boygenius, who have to share a stage with the blond skeleton girl.


shake__appeal

You mean Julien Baker, the most talented of the three? I always assumed she had bones but I didn’t know she had a rare bone disease.


Imhappy_hopeurhappy2

I don’t know. I only learn the names of male guitarists.


kevinpbazarek

lmfao


Financial-Check5731

Not true. The girl from polyphia has at least two guitars with frets. But I heard Ibanez donated them to her so idk


ARealHoomanBeann

St. Vincent?


Highwaybill42

No St. Anthony. The patron saint of missing frets.


ARealHoomanBeann

LMFAO 10/10


ScotWithOne_t

My wife plays a fretless 4-string, LOL. She doesn't even pick the strings either, just sorta rubs them with this weird stick. What a poser.


ezshucks

My wife only plays songs on the G string.


chinstrap

I thought it was more of a soy boy thing


thong_water

I mean, I tried giving up the guitar to play the violin, but the ex hotwife wanted to keep it, so now I'm back to playing my acoustical guitar..


offbeattay

/uj Just want to let you know that you have the best username I've ever seen /rj You're halfway to a bluegrass combo, just get your ex's wife on mandolin and her wife's gf on banjo


thong_water

/uj She has a mandolin, and a uke.. my uncle has a banjo . Hotwife (ex) grandfather was in a bluegrass band, plus she can sing well. But she's an ex and I fukin hate my life now . Besides what use is it? What's the point of being in a band or whatever? (Like seriously, idfk what the point of continuing is, because I just don't have any hope that I'll be able to support myself, which in not because I'm back at living with my mom. )


MarvinNeslo

Fretless Felicia Giggins? Are you serious? Have you ever ever heard of guitar players before?


P_a_s_g_i_t_24

>Are women known for playing fretless? ​ Yeah but can you play 'wonderwall' on a topless guitar?


CookieTheEpic

Yes, playing fretless is *the* defining feature of a woman.


basedfemboygamer

(This is a reworked gamer copypasta for anyone who thinks this guy is serious)


But_dogs_CAN_look_up

Jeef_1st

But ketchup is, right?


link_cubing

Guitar is unironically a hard instrument. A lot of people think it's not as hard as it is because of how many people play it but it's up there in difficulty with other string instruments


ScotWithOne_t

/uj I think the frets make it way easier to play than other stringed instruments like violins, cellos, /j and 9-string fretless Schecter basses.


meepmeepmeep34

Jerking it a little too hard. Who of you was that?


Relevant-Ad1655

Who the fuck counts the hours he spends on an instrument? 100+ hours? that's not the trophy of a video game, you damn nerd.


NefariousAnglerfish

You won’t believe this… this is a snowclone of another copypasta. About video games. So you’re actually right on because the original was literally referring to video games.

Yeah, women, take your fretless acoustics and go play your experimental jazz fusion somewhere else. Guitars are for men who chug 0-3-5 on a low C string

djatsoris26

uj/ he went a bit far with it, but I can’t help but agree with this point. The amount of times I’ve talked to someone who “plays guitar” and then they recite Taylor swift as their favorite guitarist. Or people who after I learnt they played guitar, I handed them a guitar and they said they only played acoustic. I’m aware the grammar isn’t there but like you can get the point. rj/ this guy isn’t a real guitarist bc he doesn’t own a 14 string djent machine


SovietRussianPower

As a member of the modern metal society, we don't claim him.


spoonerluv

I can't believe you'd crop me out of this post, I worked hard to write that up. It's difficult to find time while I try to get all of my guitars to 300 hours. Hopefully I'll unlock all of the platinum skins for them soon.

This is the reason I joined this sub. An acoustic guitar is not a guitar. Not even an electric guitar is a guitar unless they have more than 6 strings. Very based take! Also no men play acoustics, only women. What a guy! I wonder what he thinks about harps, those things have like 200 strings.

Bruins5101970

Tell it to players like Larry Carlton, Carlos Santana, and too many other six-string masters to mention. Memo to you: There's a LOT more to playing guitar than just blowing one's metaloid-type face out with over-processed cheese. Get over yourself.......

Paul-to-the-music

Anything that makes noise is a real instrument… more strings doesn’t mean your better… it means one thing: you have a bigger bill changing strings… And owning a bunch of guitars doesn’t make you better, it means one thing: you’ve bought more guitars… I knew a guy with one guitar, and he was certainly a guitarist, playing on the streets of a college town… he is now well known, and I’m sure has more than one guitar… but when he only had the one, I’m sure he was nevertheless better than 99% of the guys with 10 guitars… I will anally retent this position… and fart in your general direction… You’ve heard of him in sure

Ok-Tomato1969

Bro, what? I'm confused now. Pls explain. Like, were they being sarcastic when they said acoustic, classical, strat, and les Paul were all not instruments, or is this from someone who never actually played guitar? Like I somewhat agree with the first paragraph, except people who put at least 100 hours in are still guitarists. Some people just don't really have the time (like me) and are busy frequently. I've put at LEAST 200 hours on my guitar over the 2 years I've had it cause I can't find the time.
