[Slasher]

Hey baby, welcome to my world. At least you'll know what I'm up to on the net all the time.
By the way people we live a long way away so we don't see each other much. She does know a little bout guitars, but not much. She knows what a neck bend is and a 2 hand tap, so she knows more than the average person i would say.

[Slasher]

ps. i love you baby xxx
(doh, forgot to put it)

[Emily]

Thank you honey, ur my first (and second reply). Cant wait to see you again, hope it soon!My boyfriend is really gud on guitar i dont no much but he gets my approval!
My favourite colour is purple so i think his next purchase of guitar shud be a purple one! N e body got a purple guitar?
One of my favourite songs is G n R 'Sweet child of mine' it also 'are' (me and my boyfriends) song... awwww how cute! And he can play it too!
c u around, Emily xxx

[Dejan Sajinovic]

We had a thread goin´ around and lot of it was focused on what to play to impress girls.

So please, can U give us some answers. As you may see, we´re all dersperate (LOL).

PS. are you perhaps from Sweden ´cause Emily is a very common name around here.

O yeah, if you like purple, than Deep Purple is the right band for you. Just a suggestion though.

[Slasher]

Speakin of Deep Purple - Coverdale - Whitesnake, I see Whitesnake are doing a little bit of touring again.

[Emily]

Hmmm about impressing the ladies as Slasher pointed out, sumthing we have heard of or no well is always a good place to start, maybe even off an advert or sumthing :) Or even learning there Favourite song, that would be very sweet and deffinately impress me, here that honey!
Nope im an Emily from the United Kingdom, the names quite popular over here, but im the only Emily i no :D
Oh yeah and funny bout the deep purple thing! :) (i dont really no who they are).
Emily xxx

[Dejan Sajinovic]

Deep Purple, English classic cult rock 70´s band. You must have heard Smoke On The Water intro ´cause that´s the first thing evrybody learns on guitar. Richie Blackmoore on guitar, great guitar player. If Beatels are gods of pop, than Deep Purple (along with some others) are gods of rock.

[Slasher]

Don't worry baby, I'll play you some DP when you come up next. Its all part of the learnin curve.

[Emily]

im lookin forward to it already! lots of kisses and cuddles to u.

[Emily]

Good question....
My former teacher, who is according to many people the best around, refuses to learn females cuz according to him they don't get a thing. He says that he has had a few female students and noone of them got what is the electric guitar about. And this is only electric guitar, speaking of classical guitar I know some brilliant female players.

So anyone know a good female electric guitar player?
I think there was one who toured with Michael Jackson but she played mainly 5ths and all her soloing was tapping
Also I saw on VH1 some band made of only girls...sthing like Spice girls but with instruments in their hands. Their songs were pop rock crap, but the solo player had some reasonable solos.

[Slow Diver]

Emily xxx

[Slasher]

Ahhhh, I see.
As far as famous girl geetarists go, there's Sheryl Crow, she seems ok at chords. N The Donnas guitarist, she seems ok going by their new song. But I can't think of any that are fantastic.

[Emily]

thank you baby, there shud be more out there (dont worry all it isnt goin to be me!), discovery is the key i suppose, as it is wiv most unknown performists.
Great shame really :(
Emily xxx

[John O'Carroll]

Lady guitarists - how about Jennifer Batten and Susan Tedeschi ? How about the Dixie Chick who plays the dobro slide (amont other instruments) ?

And on topic, welcome to Guitar Tricks, Emily.

[Dejan Sajinovic]

Jeniffer Batten is the queen of the guitar. She can bet the crap out of most of shredder as well. She´s really somthing. And her´s tapping technique...forget Eddie.

[zepp_rules]

batten is a god(ess). she's unbelieveably good. i think she's playing with Jeff Beck right now.

[Emily]

About this Jennifer Batten goddess girl, wot kinda things she done? Sum examples wud be gud.
Its great that at least sum girls can play the guitar, I was gettin worrid there for a second.
I couldnt do a thing wen my boyfriend (Slasher) tried teaching me to play, my long nails got in the way. I said "shall i trim them" he said "nooooo, i really love the nails" ;) (if u get me) ;) so that was the end of that :D
N e body else had n e funny experiences with there guitars and there partners???
Emilyxxx :)

[Dejan Sajinovic]

I had one with my guitar. I was about to style the hell out, and was about to do the flashyest thing wich is throwin your guitar behind the neck and hopfully catch it after it has circled around my body for 360* (that´s the whole circle right).

Unfortunatly, the straps weren´t any good on the guitar so it flewd right in the floor. Blam. Fortunatly it was just a crappy guitar that nobody gave a damn about (it wasn´t mine of course) but funny thing, no damage was done. It was just to pick it up and play on.

Now that´s flashy.

[Slasher]

Lol, thats why I dont swing my guitars about.
And honey less about the sex life please.

[Emily]

Dont patronise me honey, its my thread :P
Rebellion !!! ha ha ha!!!
Not sure if it counts against ur boyfriend tho :S
Emily xxx

[Slasher]

Oh no, domestic on the horizon. I was only sayin that I don't think people on the site wanted to know that.

[Emily]

Indeed, But i was only teesing. Am i not aloud to say wot i want?
Emily xxx

[Slasher]

Ok baby. Course your allowed to put what you want, but after all it is a guitar forum.

[Emily]

Well its creatively learnin bout guitars so there :P
Come on then everyone, send me ur funny stories bout guitar situations please :)
Thanx
Emily xxx

[Tele Master]

Hmmm...one time I was jamming with a band and as soon as we finished a song, my guitar broke off from the strap. Of course my hands weren't on it at this time, so it hit thr ground, but it's a sturdy Fender, so no damage.

Hey Emily, my guitar playing buddy, and bandmate, is from England. I am not sure how to spell it but it sounds like
Churtsy. I dunno, I can barely understand him half the time anyway. Haha, thats ok I like the british, after all some of the best bands in the world came out of Britain. My fav being The Rollnig Stones of course..

[kingdavid]

Hi emily!
Now you'll get to see the nuts your man spends his time with.I'm sure you must have been wondering.
It's not a bad place to be.As the previous sentence illustrates.
You should like it.(seeing as you're slasher's girl:D-j/k)
About female guitarists,I like Jewel,although I haven't seen any of her videos,so I don't know if she's the one who plays.And how about Sarah McLachlan?

[D_Cokolades]

What about Great Kat?

[Slasher]

Jewel does play the guitar, again chordal stuff. Whos Great Kat???

[Emily]

[Tele Master]

Right, so after I've got enough confidence, I decide to take the chrome plate off the neck pickup on my guitar. I asked around this site a bit and some people said that is was removable. So I take all the strings off, the pickgaurd, and notice I got enough room in there for a humbucker!!So I think everythings going good. So I put the pickup back in, the pickgaurd on, and all the strings except the last one. (Figures). So I turn the axe upside down to feed the string through the body, when I suddenly realize the pickup falling out of the groove. So, I tighten the screws up, but the pickup is right on my strings. Then I notice 2 little rubber stoppers, lying on the floor......That;s right, take everything back off again, put the little rubber things back inbetween the pickgaurd and pickup. Now everything's fine...but heres the ironic part (maybe its just bad luck) I never got the chrome part off the pickup because its got clips on the bottom tat are glued on. Yep that was my night....

[chris mood]

oh no.....the great Kat has been brought up again (the s&m queen of hard-core metal).

[Slasher]

Who's is this great Kat???

[chris mood]

you asked for it!
http://www.greatkat.com

[Slasher]

This Kat looks like my kinda gal. Tryin to download some of her stuff off Kazaa, but its not goin so well. Is she as good as the web site seems to think?

[Emily]

Dont u be dribblin over 'hot Kat' slasher ur suppose to dribble over me, Mr! (as i cross my arms and stamp my foot!)
Emily xxx

[Slasher]

I turn my head and start dribbin at Emily again. I love it when you go all domineering.

[hairbndrckr]

Well since I'm still stuck in the hair band era.... The chick from Vixxen was pretty good. Not too flashy but it's tasteful.

[kristian J kinneavy]

ok i have a guitar story its not that funny [you probably had to be there] so if it sux im sorry:

my ex bass player lives in the outskirts of where i live [sheffield uk] its a very quiet area lots of old people very god fearing. anyway he had this really crap classical that he hated so we got very drunk. we started hitting each other with the guitar so igrabbed it and chased him outside down the street smashed it over his head [he wasnt hurt dont worry] problem being there was a policeman standing behind me so in true rock star fashion i started mouthing off and got arrested for drunk and disorderly.

not brilliant but i find stupid stuff like this funny
