Cytania, at first sight it looks complicated to me.
I don't know in which category I belong.
The way, or my style to play guitar, acoustic and/or electric is more strumming, but certainly not somewhere in a dark corner on stage, just playing rhythm. (Real rhythm guitarists are players like the late TOM FOGERTY, who started with the band later famous as CCR, or DAVID KNOPFLER). I have 2 CCR live CD's: one with the four of them, and another LIVE IN EUROPE, without TOM. If you listen carefully, you can hear the "rhythm guitar", most "soft" strumming.
So, I play in fact a kind of rhythm, but I need to add always something EXTRA, riffs, licks, mini solos (5-10 seconds), I start using more and more some fingerpicking and TO ADD AN EXTRA VALUE, like playing in that way, that most of the people recognise immediately the melody. So I am not at all a solo guitarist, it is rhythmic, using licks, riffs, little solos, and playing in such a way that it sounds melodic. I hear a lot that this is more similar to a lead guitarist, but honestly I don't know the category I'm in.

NO SONGS.
Just taking my acoustic, playing eyes pointed to infinity, and strumming, even some finger picking. Electric guitar room is even closed.

I was and am still a fan of PINK FLOYD, LED ZEPPELIN, CREEDENCE CLEARWATER REVIVAL, DEEP PURPLE, and the OLD FLEETWOOD MAC, with Peter Greeb. Also QUEEN is high on my list.
Add a lot of others, Beatles, The Who, Stones, and also music produced now

Thanks, and what about bridge, neck, is this important for playing your electric? I read sometimes that someone who buys a guitar, brigs it back to the music store, and change "the position" of the bridge.
Why is this done, does it affect in a positive way your "sound"?

Hi Mike
I listened to the song "jealousy" did you record this all by yourself? Using all features you find in Cubase?
I play since years and have since 3 months a BOSS BR 600, still complicated. But I hope to put soon a song on myspace. Do I need an extra software to create MORE EFFECTS, like as if there are 5 different guitars playing?

Well Rebel, I thought that this would be the answer. SO IN THE USA, YOU GET YOUR HUSBANDS LAST NAME. Is this the law? I also noticed that people like Doctors, Policemen, and many more, don't like to be called by their name, but by their title.
In Belgium, we are "more familiar" and we use given names to talk. Also (movies again) what is so important about a FIRST DATE? If you are here, and we would go to a discotheque, depending on your attitude (not entering an already dark place, wearing sunglasses) but they will spot you easier, and agree, we have also dates here, but I think the approach is different.
It would be nice to know "the rules" to have a woman or man, the way you conquer her/his heart.

Are Irish-men versus Scots-men not greater profanity heroes?
THis topic is so weird,I wrote this after seeing a list good word/versus bad word.
First of all, again movie an Afro -american sais you will be my b** nigga, about that last phenomenon: they even use it for us. Take your m**f**g a**es , i don' give a sh**.
- 1)This is still the question. Here I started to see that the "ATTITUDE" is different from state to state.
-2) AS newborn babies, our parents are oh so happy when their little baby is farting and pooping. After surgical intervention: same question did you.. or not...
About strange facts: yesterday, I read in a magazine that if someone is caught when "masturbating" or did I had to write mas**b**g, can be punished by death-penalty.
Strange world (instead of strang brew).

Zurf, where do you live in the USA?
Since I have so much time, I go to a guitar store on a day in a week. The pre-accident period, I had to go in a weekend, and now I go in the weekend when there are bargains, like an item you have to buy, but 15% lower in price.
10 drummers, 20 guitar players...
I also noticed that the people playing solos in the store, are all young, and with mum and dad, holding their hands on their ears.
ABOUT THOSE YOUNGSTERS, IS IT TO SHOW look-how-good-I-am attitude?
Sometimes you can see and here a man in his 4ties, playing blues AND/OR jazz, using a Gibson 335, or a George Benson Ibanez GB10, an Epiphone. I don't know what guitar he finally bought, but he was a fantastic player, soon surrounded by 10 people

Tennessee Strat.
I am glad to read yor answer. Is it misplaced on this site? We had some months now, topics or post answers, sometimes ago. Today, now and then there are still profanity words. take my case: I am paid very well, but IT DESTROYED my  social life. Sitting alone here it's impossible to swear, but when I fall on the floor due to my paralysis in my left leg (my leg isn't  turning) I can swear enough for two years.
Isn't there a Big difference between the words you use? Like sh** or damned and more.. and the other real nasty words like piece of s*** (this is already PERSONAL. If they use words like that, IT IS A PERSONAL ATTACK. Also the movement you ( a lot of us has done this) show when a car is really giving trouble, the famous and world wide knowed sign = THE MIDDLE FINGER. I know from my brother who lives and works in DUBAI, if the police notice that finger ===> jail. He did this and was followed by a  Arab until he parked his car. He told them that this was done everyday by everyone in Belgium, an apologie was enough and the Arab disappeared.
- what about rappers like 50 cent Eminem, it almost looks like poetry.
- and yes: what in Prison?
If you wrote a song with "dirty" words, are this words replaced by beeps? I love to write a song= the beep song
