I started 3 years ago on a random afternoon whilst drinking a case of coronas. I was just sitting around the house bored and remembered I had a guitar somewhere.

Wow. I didn't even consider that. I figured most of us fell in the "under 10 years" category. :D

I started off learning the drums. But when my brother learned how to play "Wipeout" on the drums first, I switched to guitar.
Oh no, wait a second... that was Eddie Van Halen.

I had wanted to play the guitar since the age of 10 or so, but never got my hands on one untill I was like 14, and still haven't had any lessons:( but, aside from not being able to play lead, i think I've done pretty good for myself.

Originally posted by guitarmanxxxxI started playing other people's guitars in 1968. Back then, everybody played guitar, so whenever a bunch of us got together, we'd pass the guitars around. I bought my first guitar that fall, for my 16th birthday.

Leedogg,we've had that dude all along.The big laugh,the one you use on one of your boys when he does something stupid(aside:you laugh like this at a girl,you'll get fried).
PRSPlaya,I've been playing "properly" for about 4 years now,and I also can't play lead,so I'd say I feel you on that,but otherwise,I'd say I'm not doing terribly badly,considering some girls I know are WOWED every time they hear me play along to a song on the radio or CD or something.Althogh I still feel like crap when you ask me about my playing.
And seeing what Lordatherings feels,I guess that feeling can't be helped.

From this survey we can conclude that we got a lot of ol' school vets on here. Most have played over 8 years. Then again this is only out of 23 votes lol.

I've got over 10 years baby. It's a love hate relationship. Stupid guitar has got me in a lot of messes over the years and it's also pulled me out of them at the same time. If it weren't for the guitar I'd be NORMAL... or at least part of the beloved social 'system'.
