Ah. I got my first electric guitar! Finally! It's a CORT guitar (nope, ain't a Fender, just a starter guitar), with a Peavy amplifier. Unfortunately, due to the requirement of mains electricity by the amplifier and that no one can stand metal music (even in my family), I can only play for like 30 minutes. -.- But the distortion's cool. Sounds like the guitar in the 1960s. Maybe I should add a treble booster to make the guitar sound like Brian May's (of Queen).

I got the guitar for my upcoming music project, where we have to form a band and play music. Being one of the three metalheads in my class, I obviously wanted to play metal, and teamed up with another metalhead, unfortunately two people were in our so-called band that forbade us from playing metal. One could play the flute, but does not mind playing percussion, although not the drum set, and the other who only wants to play songs from the band "Muse". And I don't listen to that band. In fact that guy was the only one who listen to Muse in my class in I'm not wrong. So now it came to a point where we decided to play Hysteria by Muse (which is really noisy because of the fuzzed bass that produces a shit lot of harmonics), although I don't really like the song.

What a letdown. I was thinking of playing Iron Maiden. Then there's no drummer in my class (one just started three months ago, from what I heard). There's only one double bassist in my class. So no metal, unless we use a drum machine or we prerecord the drum sounds with MIDI. Then we could play Run To The Hills.

Guess I won't be able to play metal anymore. But I'm not sure about the percussion in the song "Hysteria". My friend's gonna use a tambourine. Not a very good idea, so we may have to switch the song anytime to a slower beat, where I'm considering the song "Hysteria" by Def Leppard.^^
