I love the guitar , acoustic and electric, it’s a great stress relief, like old rock,Led Zeppelin and tool, anything with a great solo lead, I got away from it for a few years, but going to pick it up again, music soothes the soul,, I play by ear like to improvise,, any musical buffs ?

Guitar player, Electric/ Acoustic, have a small collection of guitars amps and effects. I keep my personal stuff separate from kratom lol :mrgreen: But I've done a few recordings over the years, in bands or as backup musician. At this stage I'm doing more folk rock solo acoustic, some busking even.. Kratom is cool for jamming!!

I used to be in a bar band, we played beer joints and biker rallys, I played drums and my twin brother played bass, I haven't played since 2010, I wound up with osteonecrosis in both hips I had to get them replaced, and then came the Norcos and morphine......you end up giving up everything when your an addict. :(

I took piano lessons as a kid and played the flute in the high school band. Don't play either any more.

The last few years I've been trying to learn the mandolin. I have an acoustic/electric Fender and recently bought an Epiphone Mandobird. It's so cool! It has 4 strings and looks like a mini firebird guitar. I'm a huge Johnny Winter fan, so ... lol

Firebird is a cool lookin' guitar, my brother bought a Gibson Thunderbird right after we graduated high school, he traded his Fender bass just for the case of it! :lol:

Yeah, we were big Motley fans back then, my brother loved that style of bass, and I just had to find the biggest kick drum for my drumset, back thenTommy Lee had the coolest drumset!
