Guitar Zero

A downloadable video game clone of Guitar Hero. However, Neversoft decided it was too much like Guitar Hero, and sued it's ass. Despite Neversoft really not being allowed to sue them for anything, because some Japanese company owns the rights to rhythm video games that have guitars in them, Guitar Zero took down their website to go and make the game "Less Guitar Hero-ey".

acoustic guitar

1: A guitar that uses a large resonance box to amplify and broadcast sound. Generally mellower than other kinds of guitars. Since it doesn't require an amp to be heard, it's much more portable than an electric. Often combined with mics or pre-amps for playing in venues.

2: A type of guitar often used at parties by music-illiterate dicks trying to steal your girlfriend.
1: "I really love the tone on this Takamine acoustic guitar. The cedar construction really gave it a warm sound."

2: Guy with acoustic guitar: *singing* I gave my love a cherry / That had no stone / I gave my love a chicken / That had no bones / I gave my love a story / That had no end / I gave my...

"EMILY I'M SO GUITHED, THAT ESSAY YESTERDAY WAS CRAZY INSANE AND THE POETRY TEST TOMORROW, I HAVE NO CLUE WHAT TO STUDY!!!"

"You just got Guithed!" <--suitable in response to circumstances of academic failure/unachieved success, more specifically the times when said failure occurred as a result of seemingly perpetual academic stresses.

Bass Guitar

An instrument, usually with 4 or 5 strings, modeled after the classical double bass (upright bass), which plays in lower regesters than the average guitar.
Some say the bass is easy to learn, which is debateable, but there is no question that the bass (or any instrument for that matter) is VERY difficult to master.

The idea to put a bass in the guitar shape and size came about in the 1930s' when inventor Paul Tutmarc designed the first electric, guitar styled bass, designed to be played horizontally. It was called the Model #736, and was produced by audivox.

Later on, in the 50s' Leo Fender developed the first mass produce bass guitar.His fender precesion bass or "pbass" soon became the standard in industry and was widely copied. It was designed from a single slap of wood, much like a telecaster, and featured a simple four pole pick up system.

In the 1960s' fender came out with the jazz bass. It featured 2 single coil pick ups, one closer to the bridge, the other in the percision bass position. Also, it feature a narrower neck that that of the precision bass. Furthermore, the 'jbass" had volume controlls for each pick up, which made more sounds possible

Since then the bass guitar has evolved with the time to suit the needs of the player and the style of music the bassists performs. Some notable high quality bass guitar manufactures are pedulla, warwick, mtd, alembic, ken smith, modulus, ernie ball, and of course fender. Line 6 has even come out with a modeling bass, which is made to imitate the different sounds of different basses with the turn of a nob. Furthermore, basses are now being made with more than 14 strings, so a bass player will never run out of neck room.

It is improtant to note that as an instrument, the bass is very young. Though there are many styles of bass playing, the sky is still the limit. Great players like victor wooten, flea, les claypool, stanley clarke, stu hamm, and marcus miller are pioneering new styles and techniques every day. And lets not forget the late great Jaco Pastorious, the man who made the bass what it is today. if you want to hear how bass should be played, check out jaco.

Air Guitar Hero

The act of playing an air plastic Guitar Hero guitar instead of playing a normal air guitar. Most commonly accompanies hearing a song that is featured in Guitar Hero on the radio, a CD player, or an mp3 player.
We were driving down the road when Iron Maiden's "Trooper" came on the radio. Immediately, and unconsciously, we all began to play air guitar hero.
