New Girl from So-Cal

[Hot Rod Michelle]

Welcome!! Glad to see another lady on here!!!

Me too. Thanks for chiming in. I was a little worried that there wouldn't be other women hot rodders on here.

Glad to e-meet you.

so where can we check out the music?

I am still in the process of pulling the resources together in order to facilitate going, paying, for a recording studio session. Unfortunately, I am spending too much money on my other passion instead of my passion for music.

I.E. my vintage rides.[

Yea, I have to admit, that there are times I have to exercise my vanity.
What can I say, girls will be girls. But, I can't give up the chance to play a gig or two when people are requesting to here me play. Long nails and all. Admittedly, I can't play worth a damn when they're that long. But, sometimes, even my lousy playing sounds good.[cl Funny thing is, that at other times, my good playing sounds lousy; and I can't blame it on the nails as I normally don't wear them long, because of my guitar playing responsibilities. Go figure.[S

I hide my lousy playing behind lots of distortion, some phaser and wah. Tunning down to drop B helps too. But it doesn't look like any of that would go well with your gig. LOL

Why thank you. Actually, I wish mine were a '42 instead of being a '48 as it is. The '42 has those really cool looking parking lamps.

Thank you. As far as playing the guit is concerned, just start by picking up a decent guitar, one that you will be encouraged to play rather than not, and get a book of chords and scales. You will be supprised how much you can teach yourself. Then, take a few lessons here and there and he or she (the guitar instructor) will show you tri-adds and licks that will help you to make some cool noise. A joyful noise.

Good luck.

Yea, unfortunately, my style requires a clean sound. I can use distortion on some songs, but, mostly I play clean with a little delay for rock-a-billy slap back.

I haven't tried too much drop tuning to speak of.
