The only way hip hop is music is when they steal a good song from another genre and rap over it

Hi Sammy and welcome.
Where are you from?
I'm from Denver Colorado, I now live in Wyoming and I think it's probably the most windy state. It's beautiful during the short summer and we (my family and friends) do a lot of hunting and fishing (ice fishing during the many cold months). We are at 7200 feet and warming up is a bit slow here. I work construction but I've been planning on becoming a Rock Star for some time now, ha ha.

Hello all!
The main reason I am here is that I'm looking for a quality hard-body-acoustic-cutaway that won't cost me an arm and a leg (I might give a leg but I need my arms for playing). I enjoy speaking with like minded/hearted people especialy those on the other side of the lake! My girlfriend spends time over there and I have always wanted to.
Anyhow, I look forward to chatting with fellow music lovers and I would apreciate any comments on my acoustic cutaway issue.
Thanks and Rock On!

Re: left handed (40 replies, posted in Guitars)
The way I see it, all of the picking and struming should be done by your dominant hand (my opinion). There are many nuances of play on the picking side aswell, more over, the picking side is mostly where your feel of the rithem is applied. Having said that, I believe that your dominant hand would be the best tool for letting out what you have inside. Ofcoarse we have to use the left and right in unison (usually) so you can look at it either way. These days, to do something some one hasn't done on the fret board would be a colossal feat (thanks to people like Jimmy) so for me the fret side is more technical. WHEN you apply these techniques should be based on how you feel and what better avenue for flow than your dominant hand. Besides, why not give your skinny arm a workout on the frets!
Rock On!

Topic: Hardbodied Acoustic Cutaway? (2 replies, posted in Guitars)
Hey Everybody!
This is my first post, Hello to fellow guitar lovers! I've been playing off and on for 15 years except for the last couple of years it has been more of a theraputic devotion. I love playing, I've got to play every day or nothing else clicks. I've been playing an acoustic (Alvarez Regent, Model 5210), I should say that it is a great guitar, it gives off an awsomely deep sound that only gets better with age. However, my love for playing has been pushing me to invest in a nicer instrument and I'm ready to make the step to something in the $700 to $1,200 dollar range, give or take. Which brings us to the topic.
I want an acoustic electric cutaway but I want it to have a good vibrant sound that will fill a room when it's not plugged in. I would forget about the electric aspect if I found one that felt right. I've played one with a solid top but the sound still wasn't big enough for my preferences and I'm thinking of going a step further and finding one that's solid all around. I'm no professional on the subject and I'm hoping there is an acoustic lover out there that might be able to offer some advice. Suggestions of certain guitars that you like would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks and Rock On!
