Hey. I’m a pretty experienced player since I’ve been playing for around 7 years – I’m pretty good at actually playing the instrument and I know how to play some pretty difficult songs from the math rock genre. However, I basically don’t know any theory. I maybe know what 5 🎸

Picked up a used Squire Telecaster Custom with ‘Duncan Designed’ pickups a while back without doing any checking/testing it first. Eventually I discovered only one of the pickups was functioning.
