Ive been playing guitar for a long time and would like to still be able to play in college. Its a pretty big passion of mine. I wouldnt want my guitar stolen though.

Replies twilightdancer Posted at 5:56 pm on July 16, 2008 why would your roommate take your guitar?? i don't understand... my boyfriend brought all 3 of his guitars last year, had 3 roommates, they all got to be really good friends, and anyway if your roomie took something that would be so stupid because you'd obviously know and it would be way awkward... most people have at least a tiny bit of common sense lol... i wouldn't worry about it. guitar guy3200 Posted at 9:33 pm on June 13, 2008 Quote: from cbvms77 at 9:27 pm on June 13, 2008 i play guitar 2, & i know wat u mean. get a bike lock and lock it up somewhere it wont come undone. but bring your older guitar instead, just in case thanks, ill do that.   Ive also ruled out guitar amps. since sound travels so easy. I was planning on headphones + pedal. Hopefully the sound of the actual strings wont but the roommate. cbvms77 Posted at 9:27 pm on June 13, 2008 i play guitar 2, & i know wat u mean. get a bike lock and lock it up somewhere it wont come undone. but bring your older guitar instead, just in case Myrrh Posted at 9:22 pm on June 13, 2008 ....tell him before hand that your guitar is off-limits and that if they touch it you'll beat them into the ground with a 2x4? carracer Posted at 9:19 pm on June 13, 2008 Quote: from guitar guy3200 at 9:18 pm on June 13, 2008 Quote: from carracer at 9:10 pm on June 13, 2008 Quote: from cody c box at 9:09 pm on June 13, 2008 fuck it        a dedicated musician would never give up their instrument       I may just take my cheaper guitar.

If i dont use it as much at least it will make it that much more special when I do get to play out and gig. It will only be about 30 45 mins away. good idea that makes me worry about what ill do when in college... guitar guy3200 Posted at 9:18 pm on June 13, 2008 Quote: from carracer at 9:10 pm on June 13, 2008 Quote: from cody c box at 9:09 pm on June 13, 2008 fuck it       a dedicated musician would never give up their instrument I may just take my cheaper guitar.
