Hey guys, post the dumbest myth about guitars that you've heard.

Mine is something i heard my friend say. According to him, playing guitar more than 4 hours daily would cause you to lose skin and flesh cells from the tips or your finger. And in 2 years time, your fingers would be around 1cm shorter. LMAO!

Actually.... here's a reverse myth....

Because of all the calouses.... you grow our fingers 1mm longer!

^Lol, i think that's a FACT.

A guitar myth is that you need to be godly on guitar to impress girls. I think it actually deters them more.

Dumbest guitar myth I've heard:
the motto of some brand - "Fine Electric Instruments"

Imo, they dun play guitar to impress girl but more like to express their feeling thru the music.

if u swing the guitar around u fast enough, u can fly like a helicopter.

*look at my avatar*

echobrainproject plays so fast it ends up being one note

f#$k that.... i'm in it for the girls...

if you shred too fast you might shred your fingers off

Haha, getting the girls is a bonus. But not many seems to care wether you're good at guitar anyway.

girls usually fall for those posers with their flashy moves and no playing skill

^Exactly man! Pisses me off that all these emo wannabes get all the attention! They can barely play in the first place.

SO what the heck are we playing metal for??? My Chemical Romance cover band anyone???

IM ALL FOR IT!

how bout..uh..........fall out boy?! T_T

Haha, i'll play MCR i guess. I mean, if it gets the chicks, i don't mind stooping to that level.

Or how about Good Charlotte?
Joel got Hilary the last time........

and now they suck again.

The dumbest thing I heard is something I heard from my F***tard Lead Guitarist.


He says that Punk rock guitar riffs/solos > all other genres because they are much cooler.

lol. . . quote of the century i guess. . .

he must be really really poor that he can't afford internet or money to buy cds. . . you should save him petro
