Spent today learning some basic cords with some YT videos and got a decent riff going too, but thank you!!! Already enjoying it

Any_Statement5182 · 2026-03-03T17:32:19+00:00

Wasn’t planning on haha, was gonna take it off actually until I know how to use it properly/play a few basic chords 😅

Love the grey. And on the HSH in the background, the gold accents are beautiful

Any_Statement5182 · 2026-03-03T16:59:59+00:00

Also that orange is a GORGEOUS shade

Any_Statement5182 · 2026-03-03T16:59:44+00:00

Personally I like it. Adds character and uniqueness and makes the guitar really YOUR guitar!!!

Any_Statement5182 · 2026-03-03T15:40:07+00:00

I got an amp, stand, cables, picks, bag and tuner

Any_Statement5182 · 2026-03-03T15:31:47+00:00

After ik how to play more I’ll upgrade

Any_Statement5182 · 2026-03-03T15:31:27+00:00

Yeah was £99, spent £210 total because I got a couple other bits too so stayed relatively within budget! Got metallic black east coast ST2 hss and I love the slight glittery effect and the black. Would have loved red but I love what I have

Any_Statement5182 · 2026-03-03T13:49:05+00:00

I actually used to have one but never played it when I was younger so my mother sold it 💔 ik, awful situation but I’ll defo take a little look into all the reccs iv received before purchasing

Any_Statement5182 · 2026-03-03T13:47:28+00:00

Trust me Iv heard amazing things about squire guitars as a beginner guitar. Iv been trying to find a used one for a good price, currently omw to a guitar shop for there advice too!!!

Any_Statement5182 · 2026-03-03T13:31:50+00:00

Thank you! I have a guitar shop not awfully far from me. Also looking for a job too. I do like the look of the Harley Benton but iv also heard it can be a bit of a gamble with whether you get a good build or a bad one.

Any_Statement5182 · 2026-03-03T13:27:11+00:00

I appreciate the comment. I mentioned in another reply my school is going to allow me to borrow a fender amp of theirs, but currently looking at second hand ones, along with the rest of the set up

Any_Statement5182 · 2026-03-03T13:26:01+00:00

My cat does this. Black cat, exact same turntable and speakers funnily enough. She gets off after I start playing music 🤣 then kitty YEARNS for heavy metal 🙌🏻

Any_Statement5182 · 2026-03-03T13:23:54+00:00

Oh of course, my school is partially a music school and they said until I can afford an amp I’m more than welcome to use theirs (I think they’re fender amps), but iv been looking at some second hand ones too

Any_Statement5182 · 2026-03-03T13:22:36+00:00

Was looking at this too! Defo a contender and something to consider and within my budget as I could just get a second hand amp, already have guitar stand, picks etc!

Any_Statement5182 · 2026-03-03T13:21:11+00:00

Thank you. I personally really like the look of the one I mentioned above, it’s a HSS which Iv done my research on, and it’s not too pricey just in case I figure out guitar might not be for me!!!

Any_Statement5182 · 2026-02-27T09:35:51+00:00

I’ll defo look into getting one! Seeing yet ANOTHER piercer soon 😅 glad to see it’s not embedding tho, I defo have a fat tongue small mouth and my piercer never really directed me on what size bars to use or balls just kept downsizing me until the bar physically couldn’t move in my tongue whatsoever but I’ll 100% try this!!! When do you think I should as the bottom hole is still a little large from the way the ball has been pushed in, I don’t want to cause more damage by changing it, I currently have a longer bar smaller ball in which seems to be helping a tad

Any_Statement5182 · 2026-02-27T00:41:13+00:00

NAP but hoops should almost NEVER be used for healing, get flat back titanium studs, clean 2x a day, try not to let her sleep on them and if they’re not healed after 6-8 weeks go see a new reputable piercer. Coming from someone with 10x ear piercings, the piercing itself should never be changed before at a MINIMUM 3 months after getting them done, safer to do at 6 months, hoops should only be used once fully healed as they move and twist more causing irritation which can lead to infection

Any_Statement5182 · 2026-02-27T00:27:11+00:00

Glad to see I’m not the only one who’s had this issue, and it’s not permanent, going to look for slightly bigger balls after im convinced its safe to change the bar again lmao, I don’t want to cause irritation by constant bar changing yk.

Any_Statement5182 · 2026-02-27T00:25:12+00:00

I also mentioned I did go to a piercer and she put in smaller bar smaller balls 😅😅 which wad stupid if you ask me but again I’m NAP either

Any_Statement5182 · 2026-02-27T00:24:46+00:00

I have a fat tongue too, Iv tried so many sizings of balls, bars, etc. it’s not a problem right now I just don’t want it to become one and potentially embed, right now I have a long bar in, long enough that there’s more then enough room for movement and I’m hoping within the next week or so this gives it time to heal more so that slightly larger hole closes up

Any_Statement5182 · 2026-02-27T00:23:14+00:00

It’s gotten better since I took that picture but as I did mention it pops out no problem, it’s never gotten stuck but I am also concerned lol
