imagine u wana test the guitar that you wanted..
a nice beautiful axe worth maybe 1k-2k+
but..

you're a noob at playing..
u cant shred to save ur life
u cant even play any solo
but only power chords...and simple shit scales
u cant sweep pick..
u cant alternate pick..

would you still go n test the guitar?

i think its the opposite way..

the more pro you are ..the less u feel you wanna show off ..

the more noob your playing is..the more you wanna try to impress people ..

thats why...whenever i walk in bentley , everything sounds like sh*t

Why so emo ?The problem is how much u love music..If u really love music and guitar..U will try ur best to go learn it..U need time to improve ya skill..Not within a few days...Effort is important right.

Dude don't care what others people think la, just play(or test:)) your heart out until you are satisfied. I can't shred for shit , I felt like that too sometimes, especially when there are people playing at the same time who are a much better player than me. But it's all in the mind la. Not everyone started playing like Vai you know

lol i dun fvking care..... thou there ARE some ppl looking at me, expecting me to shred or wat, then i just ZHENG n major scales. tat's all.

hanhanhan : Why the issue dude? Does it mean that only shredders can test guitars in the store? No, right? Who cares what people think, you're testing the guitar for yourself not anybody else.

And I agree with gapnap too. gapnap can shred every chick's skirt off wan ok? but he's so down to earth. hahahahaha!!!

test la. siok ma test

i'll admit, before i go test out a guitar that i like i'll work on some riffs and licks
nothing fancy, just something to play. at least 1 riff with lots of thick strings and 1 lick on the thin strings so that i can test the highs and lows of the guitar

some of the best songs are made on simple chords and simple shit scales.

yeah imma test taht guitar

haha i test b4 in bentley.. play simple things they also stand there n stone at me..

Haha..They stone at you..U throw the money to their face..They will be smile at you..Dont care what others think..Be yourself..

I thought its cause all the good stuff is locked up in the glass cabinet

err... get the good stuff out of the cupboard?

But honestly, the good stuff are not really that great. I got to play around with that brown warwick in the glass display. Wasn't really that great. Even one of the Rockbasses sounded better than it. Surprising but true. To my ears anyway...

test only lah............ I had a field day in guitar center in Hollywood

hhaha..that sounds more like wohh fatt to me ..


what bassix said is true..bentley's high end isn't that great ...


i think Wohh fatt's 15 years old Gibsons also > any Guitars from bentley ..that includes their gretch , taylors , fenders , ibby

accept for the few Musicmans i saw last time

haha yea...woh fatt's 15yr old gibsons...
in 15yrs time, collectors from around the world will be rushing to woh fatt to buy NOS vintage gibsons here

Hmmmmmmm. ever... want to invest in some first?

you buy already means its second hand...cannot sell brand new price..

you need to open a shop to declare it is "NOS"




btw..if some of you dont know..many small shops..practices...
buying a super mint 2nd hand guitar/pedal..and they tell you its a "NOS" ..and sell you at new price

SUPPORT 2ND HAND MARKET !

its not wat skill u can pour out....
if u like the guitar just grap it and try it


a 1959 Sunburst LP std is quoted US$ 560,000
wen it cost $280 in 1959
(1959 price in 2005money = $1560)
so its reli a gud investment haha
imagine buying a year 2000 model
may b wen ur 80 years old
u oredi have a vintage LP to sell haha
