Instrument etiquitte

<< < (2/7) > >>

Thrillho:
I treat my electrics like crap. The way I play, and the fact that I bash them around a bit, is just abusive.

However, I don't like other people bashing my instruments around. Someone will try and play my electro-acoustic or something and hit it against a wall by accident, and that will piss me off.

That sounds hypocritical, but it's the difference between it being my own fault that my instrument gets smashed and it being someone else's dickheadedness. I like to have control over what happens to them.

Kai:
I get really nervous when other people who don't really know how to play the instrument or I've never seen how they play and treat their own instruments play mine.


And as hypocritical as DynamiteKid's statement is, I feel the exact same way.  I'd rather do the damage to my own instrument.

Quite apart from the fact that I rarely ask for the instruments of others, and when I do I treat them with the utmost respect.

Mikendher:
i'm happy for anyone to play my instruments. sometimes it's hard not to get nervous when someone who doesn't know how to handle it uses your instrument, but i just try to ignore that feeling. it's more important that they are having fun and trying to make music.

KharBevNor:
Depends which guitar it is. No-one touches the Ovation, but my others are either scratched up already or have scratch-plated fitted, so I don't really care. Indeed, I've never really thought about it. If one of my friends who plays guitar comes round we often might have a little jam.
