About my name, just to let you all know in advance-- it's not based on any bad words lol. I've had a few people on forums confront me thinking that I was planning to cause trouble on their boards since it looks like fu** y*u. It's actually Japanese for "winter", which is my favorite season and it's pronounced like the english "who" and "you".. so you'd pronounce it like "who you" with out the space in the middle. :D
I'm female.. and an ABSOLUTE beginner/newbie to guitar. I've been wanting to learn for the past 5 years, but I never got around to it. I'm mainly inspired through Japanese "visual" bands.. and I don't know if there is anyone on this site that is familiar with this type of music. One of my biggest inspirations is Miyavi. He made me interested in the guitar in the first place and I get stars in my eyes when ever I watch him play.
At the moment I have a Alpine M711 3/4 Size Children's Acoustic Guitar.. LOL! I'm an adult in my late 20's mind you! As hilarious, or ridiculous as that may be... until I get a real guitar (planning for next month), this is what I'm teaching myself to play with at the moment for at least the fundamentals (parts of guitar, how to tune, how to read tabs and so on) from the beginner lessons on this site. This guitar was given to my husband since we have a little child. She's still too young to play, so I've been fiddling around with it. LOL .. but I plan on buying an ibanez (GRG170DX) electric guitar next month.
Anyway, I hope to get to know you all and I look forward to expanding my knowledge here with all of you as well as getting good tips from the experts on this board. Thanks for reading!
