Anything by Karnivool. I enjoy learning both guitar parts to see how they differ, and they always change them slightly for their live shows which makes it more fun and interesting.

I enjoy fingerpicking so I play a lot of Beatles stuff... Blackbird, Dear Prudence, Here Comes the Sun etc...

If I do gigs on my own I play a mixture of Indie and classic rock... Kings of Leon, Kasabian, Stone Roses, Arctic Monkeys, Oasis, Rolling Stones, Beatles, Kinks, The Who.

Anything that's mostly chords and is well-known.

Anything that can be played by smacking at major or minor chords, and maybe a few sus. Not too many Bb's preferably. I also enjoy trying to emulate anything sung with a heavy accent when guitaring.

Awesome. My former roommate used to play those a lot.

That's a nifty finish.

I play a bit of indie stuff like Band of Horses and Dr. Dog, some old punk like Hot Water Music and Riverboat Gamblers and something in between like Built To Spill.

Hey Hey by Big Bill Broonzy is one of my favourites to play -- http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=R0dmwPN8qgE -- which I can by no means walk through and make it strut like Broonzy can, but all the same it's a great song to play and when I first got the main riffs and fills down I remember I just could not stop playing it over and over. And over the last week or so I've just kept my guitar in open D playing around with some Mississippi John Hurt style stuff and trying to practise my sliding on Elmore James' Dust My Broom, which is fun. Also http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zdIdGoyzoxQ has to be one of my favourites to just kick out and sing along to. Ah-baddab-dooba-badabada rag mama rag!

I just randomly strum because my left hand can't hold the strings down properly. Hell, I've tried flipping it over to see if I just need a left-handed guitar. My right hand can't hold correctly either. My hands are stupid. Funny, my grama gave me a new guitar for Christmas (my dad says it's cheap and my mom says it needs better strings). I've got a tune in my head I'd like to play.

I've had it for years now so it's a bit battered but still sounds top notch!



This is my Takamine electro-acoustic. It also sounds pretty sweet when amped up.

These are for when I want a nice chill out afternoon.

Oh yeah, I have a semi acoustic Ibanez Art Wood as well, it's nothing too flash but it handles low tunings amazingly for an acoustic, and it was my first guitar so I love it a lot.

I have the Hulk Retrospective thread open in a neighbouring tab, but I thought I was on it whilst reading this thread. "Coolest derail ever!", though I, but alas! You are all woefully on-topic. :(
