melt some nines

to play guitar in a pointlessly virtuoso manner; to shred in a hyperactive, yet ultimately pointless fashion. so named because playing this fast can ostensibly cause guitar strings to melt, especially if they are gauge nine, or other similarly thin strings.

twiddly-guitar fanboys: "oooooooh"
