soapbarstrat Posted February 21, 2003 Report Share Posted February 21, 2003 I picked 'Skilled-I do some stuff on the side for money', because I don't do guitar repair full-time. I assume ' Pro-Makes money doing alterations and repair' ,means guitar repair would be my only job, although technically I could have picked that. Can't pick 'Master-I make them complete from start to finish', because I'm just not interested in that. I get much more of a kick out of bringing a neglected guitar back to life than building a new one from scratch. At least with a "fixer upper" , you can get an idea if it's a good sounding guitar before you start working on it. You can't beat older, stable wood. I've heard so many new guitars that sound like ****. SOUND COMES BEFORE LOOKS !!! 18 years ago I would have had to pick :' If I even look at your guitar, call the cops' (that's when I first started playing guitar and thought I'd get a heavier sound on my Fender by adjusting the bridge saddles to look the same as a bridge on a picture of a Jackson flying V . LOL !) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest AlexVDL Posted February 21, 2003 Report Share Posted February 21, 2003 Well... mine is a bit weird... I built several guitar from scratch so that would make me a master? But I've been doing my own guitars for a while now, so that would make me a hobbiest. I also do my own guitars inside and out, so that would make me a player But I also work at a guitarshop and earn some money with it, so that would make me skilled... :o What am I?????
