You can get better playing 30 minutes a day. But I would up it to an hour a day. At least for the first year or so. I actually played 2-3 hours every day for the first year I was learning, and I improved a lot. And I am a drummer. You don't say how long it has been that you have been practicing. How long have you been trying? Like anything, it just takes dedicated practice, practice, practice, and eventually you will see results. Don't give up. Just try to make it interesting. Learn new songs off the internet. Almost any song you want to learn has someone on Youtube with a video showing you how to play it. Buy or get stuff off the internet regarding chord progression, theory, pull offs/ hammer ons. Try using a slide and try using new tunings. Try out different guitars, string gauges, guitar picks, etc. Play with other guitar players; some as good as you, some better than you. Try writing your own songs. BTW, Asperger syndrome has nothing to do with finger dexterity at all. It is an autism spectrum disorder. I am a Sp. Ed. Teacher and have worked with students that have Asperger's. Good luck FF!

He needs more reverb on the vocals. 😄

Nice! I like that color. And those upgrades sound very nice! I have a 1996 mim Strat, Traditional series, "black label". I love it! Got it used for $240 in 2012. It came with upgraded tuners (fender slotted) and I put on a new nut, but all else is stock. Made of poplar. It's a very nice guitar. I will never sell mine. Have fun playing yours!

Or they could have used an old body with a new neck.

No Brad

Thanks! I like it too. Thank you! I appreciate it!

No case. Just a nicely packed shipping box from the factory.

Thanks! Two volume, one tone, and a master volume. I can't say how it sounds compared to a Gibson P90 because I've never played one before. Sorry. I like them. They don't make a lot of noise when dirtied up, and when clean and with a good compressor pedal, you can crank it up and still get a nasty tone from them. I really like them. They also sound great perfectly clean. It's my first Gretsch and I can see now why so many people like them. I have a differnet opinion on their drums....

Since I've been seeing so much discussion lately about semi-hollow guitars and P90s, I thought I would show off my new acquisition. It's a Gretsch G2622-P90 Streamliner Center Block Double-Cut P90 with V-Stoptail - Claret Burst. I've been seeing these for a while, when I noticed a brand new one on Reverb for 50 bucks off the normal selling price. And it was 30 minutes away, so I could lose the shipping fee. I got in touch with the guy and asked if he would take another 25 dollars off his asking price, and if I could come by to pick it up. He answered yes to both questions. So she's mine now. I really like this guitar. It sounds great and feels wonderful when I play it; good, low action, and nice workmanship. I took off the Gretsch pickguard because it was way to close to the high E string and I kept hitting it with my pick. Besides, it shows more of the wonderful claret burst finish. The P 90s sound great! I highly recommend!

My 2016 LP studio has “studio” written on the TRC. It also has block inlays on the fretboard.

I have 16. And my “Go To” Guitar is whatever guitar I Go To! I don’t really have a favorite. Depends on my mood, what I want to play, etc.

Put it back to standard? What the heII does that mean!? Gain anything? Every ear is different and what kind of SD is it? By the way you write I’m guessing you’re 13 years old.

I agree with you 100%

BS! There have been scams and lunatics since there were men. Hey, that might be a good name for a band... Scams and Lunatics!

White guitars show up on a TV. You guys don’t know what you are talking about. I have a degree in Television Broadcasting and have worked as a TV reporter for a number of years. white is fine. In fact you hold up a piece if white paper in front of the camera to do something called a”white balance” before shooting to make sure all the white is picked up correctly. You see white on TV every day. what you can NOT have on TV is thin, black and white lines close together. Then you have problems. But plain white is absolutely fine and always has been.

The LesPaul TV Model was that color.

New forum threads. Better than this one. 😄

What’s the serial number?

Welcome to the forum. Super sweet guitars. The Bigsby looks cool. I have Fenders too. But I play the Gibsons more!😄

It’s not ruined. It just looks different. sounds the same, right?

Sad news. is this the guy who had the house fire?

Yeah, that’s what happens.😢

Cute Kitty!
