Hi everyone,

I’m Adrian. I love guitars and everything about them! I started “playing” (read: messing around with) guitar in my teen years. Now I’m 33 and some 6 years ago I started playing guitar, this time for real, though still only for my own enjoyment. My musical interests include just about everything: blues, jazz, classic and new rock, fusion and even some “tasty shred”.

I own two American Strats: a 2004 SSS 3-tone sunburst, a 2006 HSS butterscotch blonde - my main squeeze, both maple fretboard, a Burns Steer (a killer guitar, I’ll post some pics in an appropriate thread). I also have an inexpensive Ibanez and an 83 or 84 Hondo Les Paul copy; it’s my future project guitar, as I got it in a very pitiful condition. I also have a handful of pedals of which I use primarily a BD-2, and a Line 6 Spider II 112. I know it’s not much, but I’m working on it. My ultimate goal, finances permitting, is to have to climb on the roof in order to fit all my guitars and amps inside the viewfinder of the camera. (Sounds familiar?).

Anyway, I really love this forum! I’ve just recently registered, but I’m having lots of fun here. Just like many other members, I found this forum through Dolphinstreet, great work Robert, it’s a truly wonderful source of very useful information. :AOK:

This is all for now.

Hello Adrian, I'm also new and I found the people here to be a good group to discuss guitars.

Good to have you be part of the group.

 

[Adrian30]

Thank you all for welcoming me.
Jimi, how are the parrots doing? I got some good laughs from your No G.A.S thread.:rotflmao:

Oh, amphs! I forgot the amphs. Thanks for reminding me.
Welcome to the forum too. If you stick around a while you may reach your goal.

Welcome to TheFret.Net, Adrian30, glad you joined us.

[Robert]

Welcome Adrian(33?). You've come to the right place!

Glad you enjoy my site too.

Welcome to the Fret Net Adrian! As mentioned this is a great place with lots of great players (male & female). You an find lots of answers here.

 

[Adrian30]

Thank you all again,
Yes, this is definitely a very nice place to be.

Spud, an impressive collection of guitars you have there! A very nice pic, too.

Robert, 33 - 30, you know, there’s some inflation going on in the states…:rotflmao:

Ted,as far as the map goes... I just registered ude:

One thing that I left out, and that my name doesn’t clarify, is my gender. I am a male, happily married (for the most part; as long as there’s no discussion for purchasing a Gibson LP), and a proud father of a four-year-old boy, who already owns a small acoustic nylon-string.

Again, thanks for your warm welcoming.

[Adrian30]

Thank you M29!
We're sort of neighbours, both from SE MI.

 

[Tone2TheBone]

Sorry for being so late on a welcome. Welcome!

 

[M29]

Hello Adrian30,

Yeah we are sort of neighbors. I grew up in Waterford and spend many nights on woodward avenue and at concerts at Easttown and the Paladium in Birmingham back in the 70's. I remember seeing Fleetwood Mac before the girls and Savoy Brown and Seager and Nuge and Alice Cooper and Scott Richard Case and on and on.
I live up near Lapeer now.

Welcome Adrian. I'm sort-of a neighbor of both you and M29 (kinda in-between you guys). Grew up in the 'D' and eventually moved my way out to Waterford. You will like it here. Lots of great folks and info.
