[JerkyChid]

pretty cool. (btw, looks like you need to clean your fretboard)

[riffoftheweek]

only posers clean fretboards :)

[Jeromy2]

i disagree, i clean my fretboard so it doesnt look like shit and so its not gross when i play it. also i dont really understand what u mean by posers

[riffoftheweek]

Dings, nicks, dents, rust, corrosion, neck wear.. it all just adds character. You don't clean or fix that stuff.. sure give your frets a wipe, but that's about it.

[Jeromy2]

well i know wut u mean about that it adds character, but its kinda harsh to say only posers clean fretboards, but i guess its more about personal opinion too, for example if u have like a 60's gibson les paul, one would want to keep that in mint condition, but again, its all about personal opinion

[riffoftheweek]

exactly, personal preference. My LP sells for about $4k. I'm not worried about keeping it mint, but that's just me. Guitars are tools to me. Like a hammer is to a carpenter.

[racsnarok2]

what happens if people use these riffs in their original music? :o

[Jeromy2]

i couldnt agree more

[johfrusciante4eva666]
