Any Good Guitar Forums ?

[BlackDPlus]

Does anyone know of a good guitar forum ?
Something like the Blade Forums of the guitar world ?

I found a few, but they are populated by kids. I'm 41 and looking for something a little more serious.

I know there have to be a few guitar nuts on here.


Thanks.
Alex

Me, but I still suck... :yawn:

What kind of serious? What kind of music are you into, I know a few, tab websites and stuff.

Guitar theory? I know a guy, he grad last year, and he was a guitar freak. He studied guitar theory, and practiced it. He was ****en good.



Haha, I just got strings today, and I'm changing them now. To bad it's taking sooooo long because I'm reading and posting here.

You didn't say what type of guitar you play. For classical or flamenco I suggest Guitar Salon International's website:

http://forum.guitarsalon.com/

Lots of good stuff and musical advice.

doomonyou - Thanks. I hadn't found that one and it seems to be more of what I'm looking for. I'll be signing up there.

panella - Thanks, but I don't think I could do flamenco. Not good enough for that. I did check out the site though. I'll visit there again when I have more time to dig deeper.

underaged - By serious I just meant without the childishness that seems so prevalent on some of those forums. Maybe I should have said mature.

I like many different styles, but I'm a rocker at heart. I've been in bands since I was a kid. Got out of it for some years and am now getting back into music. I've been learning some Satriani and want to wail the blues like SRV. I like older metal too.

I recently bought an Ibanez 6 string, Weeping Demon Wah, and a Fender amp. Good sounding combo.

Sounds like a good set up there. Drop the fender amp and get a Crate.

Here are a few more:
www.musicplayer.com
www.deanguitars.com (Look at the top-right side for the forum link.)
www.harmony-central.com
www.fenderforum.com
www.johnpetrucci.com (If you like Prog-Rock/Metal, this is the guitarist for Dream Theater's website.) I find the forum there to be a good one.

There has to be more. I am a drummer so I mainly visit drum discussion forums.

This isnt a guitar forum but I thought that if you were also lookin for guitar tabs, that this would be good a site:

BTW I suck at bass, guitar, and uke.


The why I like to learn is from old futz. It's always cool to play with them.

Nevr mind the amp get a POD with a floorboard. Then you own all the sound you could possibly want.
