we should get all the musicians off this site together for a jam session i think it would be really interesting to see what we would come up with.

It certainly would be interesting .. :) ... but I think it would have to be with fairly local people , yes ?..

you could also try a 3/4 scale guitar, I bought my daughter a Fender Strat 3/4 scale

I have played guitar, bass, keyboards, syntesizers, etc., in about 15 bands. Not lately though. Never found a drummer I could work with, though, they can't FOLLOW SIMPLE DIRECTIONS!

That's why I switched to writing, you almost never have to collaborate with a drummer....

drummers ive found best give em a style and time signature and let them improv. works good that way.

I play the guitar (PRS custom 24) and bass (Fender P-bass) and produce my own music with some friends in the Hollywood Hills. I play pretty much anything. Can't be struck in one genre because that would be boring and I will never expand my licks and groove. I am influenced by classical guitar to hardcore metal. I was in a ska-jazz band a few years ago but now do studio work with some local LA bands for fun. Rock out everyone! bigsmile
