I have a problem with stage fright. Normally goes away after the first song though.
Best version of Canon I've ever heard played on a guitar:
Trace Bundy - Pachelbel's Canon

:-) Wow.
Yeah, mine's not quite on that level. That was virtuostic (if that's a word). Now I'm going to mess around with it in open tuning too.

I went through a fingerstyle period myself... actually, I wrote a song, put up a video, and had the members of the asylum name it (held a contest where the winner got some sticks). Here it is:

I picked up this Ibanez $200 off craigslist and I love the thing. Great neck, solid top, plays and sounds great. Though my favorite guitar is the Guild F4ce, slim body, comfortable to play, and sounds great.

I've been playing for 6 years, now. It's my release...probably the biggest motivator to work in my life, was to get my custom Black Machine.
I have an Epiphone Hummingbird as an acoustic. I have only written a handful of things on it, but I can play a ton of Never Shout Never and Jason Mraz on it...
I've been playing the crap out of my Ibanez RG7 lately.
I plug into a Peavey 6505+ through a Mesa cab.
Amp set ups, brothers?

I have a little amp consisting of a Mesa Tri-Axis preamp, Simulclass 2:90 power amp and 2 4x12 standard rectifier cabinets.

I've been throwing around the idea of selling the 6505 and getting an AxeFx and running it right into my Mesa.
I
:-) everytime I see an AxeFX. The sheer amount of tones you can make with that is just ridiculous.
