As a fan of vintage Fenders (and as a Jaguar owner), I'd love to have a sad guitar shirt.

Doubt I would get one if they where avalible but more shirts can never be bad. I would rather have a "Coffee Of Doom"(?) shirt.

I gots me a Fender Precision. It's very new, though, and I'm not that good on it yet. this will change.

maybe there could be a range - sad guitars, happy guitars, confused guitars... a whole range of emoticon guitars, in fact.

Actually, what would be pretty sweet would be emoticon-in-a-text-bubble stickers for your guitar or bass.

(sorry for the necropost)
So, I was discussing with a friend what makes a guitar "sad". Now, the guitar in this (Marten's) case is presumably sad because it was being pawned. But what about other situations? We came up with a couple; I apologize if any have already been mentioned elsewhere:

- bad playing
- being in a generic (and by generic I mean what's been popping up recently) emo band (a-hah-hah, zing)
- guitars that were bought as presents for children whose parents wanted (and I mean REALLY wanted) them to be musically inclined ...
- ...and then, instead of being pawned, were put up in the attic and forgotten.

Personally I think it'd be worse for a guitar to be put away and forgotten than to be pawned, because as rough as it is, pawning brings hope. It's like putting up the guitar for adoption, I suppose.  

By the way, I play an Arianna Strat-style guitar. Take that, Yamaha user!

From http://www.questionablecontent.net/merch.php we get TEH description Jeph put down for the Sad Guitar shirt:

Why is this guitar so damn sad, anyway? Is he being pawned off? Is he being played poorly? Is his owner in a terrible emo band? The world may never know, but he sure does look nice on a t-shirt.

i bought sticker paper yesterday, and today i printed out my first sheet of emoticon text bubbles, which ranges from laughing to crying to devil-y. they are currently pasted all over my guitar case.

Huzzah for guitar! I play a Marten Drednaught Mahogany back acoustic. Fuck the model number, but it's the sexiest thing ever.

w00t for all aspiring guitarists.  there would be no music industry without us lot who sit at home painstakingly learning our favorite band's songs from ear, tab, or some other indescribable means...

Oh and me?  I play an Ibanez SZ520.  Awesomely low action.  Gorgeous flame maple finish.

Strats rock.  You have my approval and admiration.  Is it an American or a Mexican?  The shinyness makes the headstock illegible.

That is not something you should be boasting about.


Bumping a 4 year old thread for no good reason and justifying with "I'm an asshole" is a really stupid thing to do, and is not going to help you make any friends around here. Maybe try putting more effort in making worthwhile posts instead?

After all, the other 720 posts I have made were all out of sheer douchebaggery and attempts to rile up people's anger and hatred.

You want the real reason instead of a flippant comment? I was reading through some seriously old threads, and was curious if negative creep actually did achieve his goal or not, so I necro'd this rotting corpse of a thread to ask him. Sounds fair enough to me.
