He looks like he's in danger of hurting his eyes too, with that upper bout.

--- Quote ---Fuck you, guitarists. You are collectively my least favourite kind of musician (except for drummers) because:
1. You are such competitive assholes that it gets in the way of playing good music.
2. You're obsessed with your own fucking idea of "good" music and the true path of guitar playing that you can't open your mind to other paths, and thus hamstring yourselves as musicians.
3. You imitate other guitarists so fucking much that you'll never develop as an individual musician.
4. You think you're hot shit when you can't play. You know that faggot from My Chemical Romance? Or, well, both of them? They might play for a shitty pop-rock band, but I'd bet all my guitars that they're better than you.
5. You play with no emotion. Fuck you all. No matter if you're shredding, playing the blues, or rock or funk or whatever. You all sound so fucking stale, learn to communicate you musically illiterate fuckwits.
6. You can't read standard notation. What kind of musician can't fucking read standard notation? You, evidently. Fuck you.
Guitarists are the worst musicians. Ever.

This was the result of spending too much time on a guitar forum with people who were so insecure about their skills that they had to attack others and other genres whenever possible. I don't really think this way about guitarists, but there's an inkling of truth to this.

Most if not all of those are true of a lot of people I know, and are part of the reasoning why I don't refer to myself as a 'guitarist' much any more, so much as someone who plays guitar.

I actually quite disagree, I really like the way that thing sounds.

We agree on something.
This comforts me.

So, I'm probably going to buy that Telecaster tomorrow. I'm pretty excited. I don't think I'm going to get much for my Strat, though since I scratched the piss out of the finish. :| I wish I could get 'em out by myself.
