Which guy are you?

Made me chuckle, forgive me if it’s already been posted! I’m ‘forgets everything guy’

I’d be the judgemental old guy, wondering where the tone control has been hidden.

prowla

I'm all of them!

ICBM

I think I’m the Tone Seeker, but I might be the Guy You Can’t Tell Is Any Good Or Not...

soma1975

I'm a combo of bloke who clams up and bloke who feels he is playing too loud.

90% of the time I'm forgets everything guy. There is one time where I tried a Squier Jaguar and a Fender Excelsior together and I was ripping it up so well that the guy came over to ask if I was in a famous band (for actual real!).

Then there was the other time where I was in the little room in Andertons getting SO into the Marshall Origin 20 that the guy came in to tell me to turn it down. I felt really terrible about that - like I must have been being a serious dick for someone in a guitar shop like that to tell me to turn down.

I clam up... Or the one that an expensive guitar will not make me a better player plus the guy that you can't tell is any good or not

I'm the one who bashes the headstock into the Custom shop guitar hung up next to it ,scratches the test guitar putting the jack in, trips over the amp, drops the guitar then puts it back hoping nobody saw.......buys an embarrassment plectrum and gets the hell outta there asap

That's probably me too, tbh. I test drove a car once, and one returning to the garage, reversed it into another of their cars

I am kinda mix of the one who forgets everything and the one who a good guitar won’t improve my playing. Doesn’t say much for my abilities I guess .....

I had that fear when in the room that i tried out my guitar in Coda the other week... So many Novos and Fender Customs!!!!

Tone seeker and guy you can't tell if he's good or not. 

Tex Mexico

I'm the guy who asks lots of questions about the gear but quickly realises the amount of time he spends geeking out on guitars means he's got more product knowledge than the shop assistants.

viz

I’m the guy who criticises the shop assistant for pronouncing the product wrongly. Yesterday I asked if they had the new Ibanez Jem and the shop assistant said, “the P.I.A.?” so I said, “no, the Pia”. I didn’t really. I said, “Y.E.S.”. I didn’t really.

I'm the guy who tries the guitar out in the shop and then orders online, like everyone else does these days.
And they wonder why real shops are going down the pan.

I can’t do that. Not just because it doesn’t sit well but if I play a guitar I want, I want the one I like. Not one like it that might feel totally different. 

I am also the one who forgets everything the moment I pick up a shop guitar. 

p90fool

I'm the mail order only guy.

But never mind that, what was that horrific looking and sounding thing he was mucking about with, I thought this was the guitar forum?

Fez

I am not averse to a jam, had a couple of shop jam's in sounds great. 
Like @dazzajl I want to take away the guitar I have chosen.

Vibetronic

The first one who chugs. You can tell a lot from whether it chugs nicely or not.

You getting one? Saw one of the big shops had them on preorder...
