  • Newbie Introduction

    Hi everyone,I just wanted to introduce myself before I start asking to many questions.

    I'm 16 years old. I've played guitar since I was 12. My first experience w/ a Jackson was about a year ago on one day when my sister had to go get reeds for her clarinet. So my mom, my sister, and I go to the music store to get the reeds. While thats going on I decide to test out a new Marshall MG250DFX that the place just got. So I look at aguitar to test it out with and I see a Jackson Rhoads V. i believe it was the performer version(the one w/ the Floyd, black hardware, and no pickguard). I just feel in love w/ it. I asked how much it was and the clerk said it was $164.00. I couldn't believe that it was so low, but unfornately my mother couldn't afford it at that date in time. I decided to work to get it, but once I got the money to afford it it was already gone [img]/images/graemlins/frown.gif[/img]. After all that I started researching all kinds of Jackson/Charvel guitars and now I feel adeuate to say that I'm a jackson fanboy [img]/images/graemlins/headbang.gif[/img]. What made me really want a Jackson Rhoads V mostly though was the great young guitarist himself. I've been a Randy Rhoads fanboy since the day I picked up the guitar so naturally I'd want a guitar just like his.
    I now have a B.C. Rich Warlock that isn't as great, but is pretty good. I play mostly metal music(thrash is want I prefer aboive all else), but I often bust out my acoustic and play a little classical.

    Welcome aboard. Your story sounds similar to mine (starting at 12, getting hooked a year ago). Aside from that, what's your icon? I've seen like 10 different people with it.

        This will sound real newbie, but what are the icons? I know what an avatar is, but what is the icon? And to clarify I made this post because I didn't want to lose my accoun. I would have introduced my self later, but once I had my KV, which I will be ordering soon and than recieving sooner hopefully : )

          I suppose avatar is the actual term. I just refer to it as an icon since they're like the same thing. In other words, the picture underneath your user name.
