Members imtheking Posted January 27, 2012 Members Share Posted January 27, 2012 hrafnkel is a genuinely nice guymistersully likes dinersd carrolls band accidentially sounds like the gorillaz If we're talking about the virtual band, it's not THE Gorillaz, it's just Gorillaz. Hate to be "that guy" but it is what it is. If it's a different band, then nevermind Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Surrealistic Posted January 27, 2012 Members Share Posted January 27, 2012 Y'know I don't think I do make those kinds of assumptions, except with some of the more outrageously obvious metalhead guitars. I'm not sure what my three main guitars say about me - perhaps more than I realise? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Surrealistic Posted January 27, 2012 Members Share Posted January 27, 2012 your middle aged/a dadMy middle aged what? (sorry, but if you're going to spell it wrong I just can't resist) Okay, well you can see my pic so the first bit is obvious. Why would only a dad have a Gretsch, a nice acoustic and a Yammy SG? ... and what does being middle-aged or being a dad have to do with what kind of person I am or what music I play anyway?

Members noisebloom Posted January 27, 2012 Members Share Posted January 27, 2012 Not always, but it's often easy to do. Pointy guitars are usually a dead giveaway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Surrealistic Posted January 27, 2012 Members Share Posted January 27, 2012 those are all total dad guitarslike how PRS are lawyer/doctor guitars you dig?Let me guess, unless it's a pointy nasty looking gaudy thing which looks like it's designed for "teh brutalz" it's a dad guitar right? If I'd answered this last year and put my Ibanez RG there I'd presumably still be a middle-aged dad, but one who likes metal. See, this is why I wouldn't make those kinds of assumptions. Some people buy guitars because they like them. I'd have been delighted to have any of my main three when I was a snotty nosed kid starting out at 14. Of course back then there weren't any pointy gaudy metal guitars so it would have been much harder back then to make any kinds of assumptions at all - except how much money you could afford to spend. The OP's point wasn't about whether you're a dad or how old you are - it was about what kinds of music you play. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members w00dsy Posted January 27, 2012 Members Share Posted January 27, 2012 i don't think the Buckland guitars fit into any category, they are a bit of everything. If you saw a guy playing heavy rock it wouldn't look out of place, neither if it was a country band. What do I play? Chuck Berry and Hendrix covers?

Members Surrealistic Posted January 27, 2012 Members Share Posted January 27, 2012 Dads play dad rock. Nice SG Thanks. It's a lovely thing to play.

Members slushpup96 Posted January 27, 2012 Members Share Posted January 27, 2012 also, in response to Honeyiscool's question, mostly yes. Sometimes you can't really tell (strats and teles are used in almost every style of music), but if they just bought a plain black BC Rich or something I kinda know I won't like the same music as them.

Members =JL= Posted January 27, 2012 Members Share Posted January 27, 2012 Like most others, I make assumptions, but am prepared to be wrong. In fact I prefer it. I take a perverse pleasure in using "inappropriate-looking" guitars, and enjoy it when others do too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
