Dunno if that is good or bad, one was looking a little freyed and I was playing around and boing, one broke.



One set of strings, I know 3 chords and my fingers are permanently numb. However it is very theraputic, i do enjoy it even if I dont know ****!

I agree with the therapeutic thing. I need to pick up my bass a little more often. I think the strings are a bit harder to break.

awesome.



keep at it, learning guitar is really frustrating, but once you start learning it will come faster as you develop the coordination.

I busted a brand new flat wound string installing the damn things!





I also need to practice more, but I have a cheapo Samick and the neck seems to be warped so it makes funny sounds......

I subscribe to the woody guthrie school of playing. If you play more than 2 chords, you're just showing off.
