My Top 3:

Hot coffee in my Dream Theater mug

My metronome

A few JAZZIII picks (sometimes I play better if I switch to a new pick :confused: )

[EricV]

- An answering machine

- Some backing track to jam on at the end

- Maybe a few licks and exercises on paper if you run out of ideas or wanna work on something new...

Powertab and guitarpro open, so instead of wrting ideas on paper, better tab them right away so I can hear the thing with no performance error, add some drums and jam over MY ideas.

Guitar

Amp

Slide

[jasond]

guitar, picks etc but i also need to be in my room!

ha i used to only play the guitar whilst stoned, until i realised how much it f'ked up my hands... i wouldn't recommend it if u want to avoid frustration and pain but at the same time it does enormously enhance my musical appreciation and creativity.

[Metallico]

1)Guitar

2)Amp

3)2 hours of free time


The #3 is the hardest to find!!!!!:)

[billybenbob]

1) Time ( 5 minute to 2 hours will do)

2) My music stand

3) Something to put on that music stand

Since we're only allowed 3 things, we'll just have to figure that I've already got a guitar handy.

[Shred Fan]

1. Metronome

2. Large amounts of time

3. Folders filled with various licks, excersises and mostly Eric's various picking articles.

[Sentinel]

1. Metronome

2. Books

3. Music Stand

[punkerton]

assuming i already have my electric guitar and amp and acoustic guitar and a few odd picks...

1. pen and paper
2. cigarettes
3. silence (when i'm not playing)

and also some sort of inspiration, be it someone else's music or even just a window to look out of.
