I just signed up for for forum. Thanks for letting me in!

a little about me: I'm a guitar player who has played mainly punk, hardcore, rock etc for years but I'm new to playing surf. I love it so far and I'm pretty stoked to learn as much as I can.

Any tips advice is welcome! I made a clip of me playing pipeline (soft of) It's my 1st attempt at playing surf ever and I have a lot to learn.

Thanks again! -Craig

Nice chops. Welcome aboard! Nice drag on the first tremolo bend!

Thanks man! I just got that CV Jazzmaster last week andvive never owned a guitar with a whammy before. It's a whole other aspect to guitar that I've been missing out on.

I ordered a Surfybear reverb and an optical tremolo, and I'm pretty stoked to dial in a nice surf tone

Thank you! There is a wealth of knowledge here I can see. I have some reading to do!

Welcome to SG101! Glad you're here.

This is Noel. Reverb's at maximum an' I'm givin' 'er all she's got.

Welcome to the forum, and nice job on Pipeline. If I could encourage you to get one pedal, it would be called the "Blossom Point." It really helps give your amp that brownface Showman sound. Look forward to seeing your progress!
