I did orchestra through school up until college...so 9 years of music/music theory? I did viola mostly, and bass for several years. I plan to pick up bass sometime when I can afford to, also want to learn guitar....but I want to take some lessons so I can build a good foundation.

The thing I need to train most is my rythm. I find it very hard to play guitar while singing. I end up strumming to the rythm I sing, which is of course wrong.

Do you guys know the song Mmm Mmm Mmm Mmm of the Crash Test Dummies? (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-4WbwwhBmRk) I kind of have that voice when I sing. Quite low. Most songs are a few notes too high for me.

And in college learned how to play...

You're a dulcimer player, eh?

I started playing guitar about 2 years ago when my brother started taking lessons. He showed me a few things, and I went from there. I just dont play enough to get any good really. I personally only own 1 guitar, a black Yamaha FG720S which I love, I also play my brother's two electric guitars some, a Schecter and a Jackson (hes into shitty metal), but they are nice guitars as well.

Didnt think anyone would know what it is...
Granted also made sure to pick a picture where you could see the name in the property.

But yeah, learned it in my History of American Music class.

Yeah, I only knew because my step-grandad plays it and we have one of his old ones in the house. It's an interesting instrument.

Does the dulcimer have a middle-eastern type sound? Earl...you need to post yourself playing :p

I play guitar like every other young adult male.

I also truly rock the rock band drums and would love to transfer that skill to a real drumset.

I think it transfers pretty well. My friend owns a drumset and I can bang out a few recognizable songs. I too want a real kit though.
