A selfie of me, a white man with a red beard and short hair, holding a shiny black electric guitar. The guitar strap is thick and leather, and there's a capo attached to the neck of the guitar, which is a device that sits across all the strings and makes the pitch of the notes higher.

I made some guitar-related purchases! I needed a new strap because I'm pretty sure the one I was using was the original Fender one from my first guitar kit from like fourteen years ago, and it was starting to tear where the strap hooks onto the guitar, so I got a handsome new black leather one. The other bit was a trigger capo because the next section of my Fender Play learnings needs it.

Judas Priest - Breaking the Law

I haven't been posting much about it, but my guitar learning is coming along pretty well! This is the riff from Judas Priest's "Breaking the Law". (I should clarify that this is the entirety of what I know from that song).

A photo of the box of Apogee's "Jam" guitar input, an unassuming silver rectangle with a dial on the front as well as a button and some lights.

Woohoo, my new guitar input arrived! I took it for a quick spin and the sound quality is noticeably improved over the old one, everything sounds crisper and clearer (old was 16-bit/44.1KHz, new one is 24-bit/96KHz). This was paid for by selling some of that funny money that Keybase gave everyone a few years back, turns out it's actually worth something now!

Okay this seriously rules: my guitaring is going well and at the moment I'm practicing some power chords, and have been just using the metronome in BIAS FX Mobile to keep time. I remembered out of the blue that GarageBand has a "virtual drummer" thing where it'll automatically play a whole drum kit for you with all sorts of different styles and presets. BIAS FX can run in the background while doing this, so I gave it a go and it's SO MUCH FUN! Way better than playing along to a metronome. 🤘🏻 (Yes there's a handful of cocked-up chords in there where my fingers didn't quite get to the right place).

A photo of two black guitar picks sitting side by side. The one on the right has a perfectly-shaped point on it whereas the one on the left doesn't really have much of a point left at all.

I'm suddenly realising why guitar picks come in bulk packs. I was wondering why my picking wasn't sounding quite right, then noticed how much had been worn off the point of the one I've been using since I got the guitar a few months ago!

You'll have to speak up, I'm playing a guitar.

A photo of a shiny black electric guitar sitting on a guitar stand.

It's here, and it looks amazing! Noticeably lighter than the old one, and much easier to press down on the strings too.

I've decided I'm going to learn to play guitar (again), but am going with a not bargain-basement-rubbish guitar this time. Just ordered this bad boy, an Epiphone SG Standard in ebony.

A photo of a black electric guitar with white scratch plate sitting on a guitar stand, next to a teensy little amp.

We went down to the Mall today to get Guitar Hero 3 for the Xbox 360, then thought, wait a sec... So I ended up with this instead! It’s a Fender starter kit thing. Comes with guitar, practice amp, cables, strap, electronic tuner, guitar stand and case, and a Getting Started DVD. I figured instead of spending $140 on a video game of guitar playing, I’d spend a bit more and learn to play the real thing! This whole package was only $400. (Although the DVD is actually excerpts from the full DVD, which I also bought). \m/
