Right now I'm trying to figure out the rest of the tabs for the Metal Gear Solid theme. A friend that just graduated helped me figure most of it out and now I'm trying to work out the sound on my electric if anyone happens to know it please send me the link. Peace out.

Wow, System of a Down and Avenged Sevenfold are really fast at guitar. Glad you are talented enough to play those songs^-^

I can't play anything, well, I play the flute (doh-.-'' :oops: ). But I dropped out of band this year. I was second chair. woot woot 8)

But other than that I have no musical talent with instruments. I would like to learn how to play guitar and piano. The guitar part of 'Broken' (By Seether) and the piano part to 'Give Unto Me' (By Evanescence) ^-^
I want your lungs to stop working without me.

Hey. I play guitar, I've been playing for a little more than half a year now.
My main influence to start playing was Iron Maiden. So I can play lots and lots of songs by them.
I'll list some of them:
Ghost of the Navigator, The Wicker Man, Fear of the Dark, Aces high, No More Lies, Wasting Love, The Evil that men do, Dream of Mirrors, and more. I can play some of the solos to those songs.
Its just a matter of being motivated to learn them. To learn a solo it takes a while, you have to remember all the notes etc, but I'm beginning to just play them by feel now. Hope you all follow...
I can play a load of oher songs by other bands. I dont learn whole songs all the time, as a lot of some songs are just powerchords and well, they are boring to play.
Some songs I have learnt everything on guitar to are Nothing Else Matters by Metallica, I could have Lied by Red hot chilli peppers,

I can play lots of songs. Or parts neway lol. Just whatever i can be bothered learning.

I compose my own songs too.

Hey dude. I had a look at the bass tab. I dont play bass, but as a guitarist i can help you...i think.

The fretting hand for that song is very simple and the notes repeat. If you fretting hand has trouble moving fast enough just practice it more and more! lol
Its fast you say? Well do you know how to alternate pick? If not learn too. Google it and learn off the net, or ask your guitar/bass teacher.
I will quickly tell you what alternate picking is here though:
Its when your picking hand (you do use a pick right?) alternates between upstrokes and downstrokes.

upstroke - downstroke -upstroke -downstroke- upstroke etc

I'll try and help you more later on if your still having trouble. If you dont understand something I said just tell me and I will try to further explain.
Maybe you could go to a guitar forum and ask there. :)
