was rather bored and figured I'd start a thread for guitarist furries, hoping to see a few posts.
I'd rather die on paws than live on feet.

I play bass guitar. I've been playing a little over ten years. I have two Squiers, four and five string, and four string Micheal Kelly acoustic.

What do you guys think about a 12 string acoustic? I want to get one, but I also want another electric

I am, though I'm not terribly good yet (need to practice more). I've got a Godin Session electric.

What do you play, as far as electrics go, now?

Trigger

Well I've got a Les paul knock off, and a Samick acoustic, as well as a el degas Bass

How "knock-off" are we talking? :p I would say that, as long as you're happy with the tone and feel of your electric, then go for the 12-string. :) Takamine and Martin both make lovely 12 string acoustics. :)

A 12 string is fun to play with at first but it gets really limited when you want to get some really deep, aggressive hits on the guitar. If you're a good plucker go for a 12 string, but you can get way with more contrast with strumming and plunking with a 6 string.

It's a Mann, and well I started playing guitar with finger picking, and I only want another electric so I can put lighter strings on it, My Mann's got real thick strings on it now making it impossible to do hammer-ons and pull offs

Who wants to get together and jam? I'm in Surrey and Port Moody. Who else is around here?

I freestyle. I can improvise with you but I get bored when I gotta keep a beat.

I've been playing guitar since I was about 3 years old, and bass since I was in middle school.  Done a little bit of recording here and there, played live gigs with my old band, etc.  Mostly into heavy metal/hard rock stuff.

I have an Ibanez RG7420 7-string electric, pickups replaced with an EMG 707 (neck) and EMG 81-7 (bridge), tone control removed and replaced with an EMG Afterburner (push-pull toggle, rotary knob w/ up to 20dB boost).

Also an Agile 12-string acoustic-electric my brother gave me, though it's falling apart as most 12-strings do (bridge is pulling up and warping the top wood).

Bass: Started on a Yamaha RBX260, now have an Ibanez SR505.

Slowly trying to get a band off the ground again but dealing with health issues at the moment.

I wish I could play guitar. I own one, and I've tried to learn, but no matter how much I try I cant seem to get the hang of moving my stubby little fingers fast enough. I always end up getting frustrated, so it goes back to the corner, condemned never to make beautiful music.
