You just made my point for me.

Dude, step back and look at what you did, you fucked with your dad's guitar, regardless of whether or not he plays it, you showed absolutely no respect for his property. If I did that to my dad's guitar I'd get my ass kicked, and I'd deserve it.

 

[JohnQ]

All I see is a snotty kid who's being very disrespectful to his father.

Exactly. Show some respect and I bet you'll get some from him in return.

 

[GNR4EVR]

Man- Look at how you view things? Stop looking at your pitiful self and wake up: AXE said it right- he misses his Dad every day. Yours wont be around forever either. Honor him by doing as he wishes.
You can be either a pleasure or a pain to him... You choose.

YOU TOO SHITHEAD...

Im not in very good f mood after readin some of you guys post some rude, some made me feel sick and sad... im in a thoghtful, but sorrowfulk mood right now.... but anyways, thanks to those who where nice about it, and posted with some thought....

Hey man, just take a deep breath for a second. And then read what Kate says, and this.

When I was your age, somethings my dad did pissed me off too. It didn't make sense to me. I find that the older I got, the smarter my dad became. Ever since I moved to college my mom stayed my mom, but my dad became my friend. Now we just talk about anything, and I know I am going to lose him some day, but you never know when.

He has a guitar, and if he plays it or not, it's still disrespectful to take it without asking, and then permanently altering it. It may have sentimental value, etc etc etc.

I think you should go up and apologize to your father. Suck up, and take it like a man. He won't be around forever, and soon he won't be your father, but a friend to you, and he will be one of the best friends you can talk to, and you can talk to him about anything.

Not to mention he clothes you, feeds you, houses you, pays for some other expenses etc. And if you think you can live on your own and support yourself at your age, you are dead wrong.

I can understand you wanting to play it, really I can... but you stepped over the line when you sanded the finish on the neck. It ISN'T your guitar, no matter what you think. Just because you can play it and he can't doesn't mean it is yours to do with as you wish.

And you said you've already broken some guitars... cheap or not, I can see why he doesn't trust you with it. If your dad owned a Ferrari and you wanted to drive it because you wrecked your Yugo what do you think his response would be?

 

[dennistruckdriver]

My dad is a ass....
....but i think otherwise....
.....he doesnt understand our (us players) lingo and how a guitar should be......

....i should send him to LA nd make him enroll at that guitar college.....

he says he can play....i dont bileive him.....

fuck, hes has a epi 335 in his closet that hasnt been played since it was sold to GC....

....i think he needs to keep his mouth shut....

....he dont know shit...

....one thing that pisses me off....

.....i just now had to return "his" guitar downstairs or i would get a big can of whoopass....

....i think hes should go STFU....

....a kid who has amassed guitar knowledge that evens impresses a GC sales accsoiate....

....YOU TOO SHITHEAD.......

....Im not in very good f mood after readin some of you guys post some rude, some made me feel sick and sad....

For those of you who tuned in late to the program, now in progress....

Well said Sin!

It's amazing how much easier life is when you're calm, rational, and respectful of each other. You might both find it easier to see things from the other's perspective.

If you were my son and you sanded the finish off the back of my guitar, you wouldn't be able to sit down for at least a year...The bruising would probably go away within a few months but the pain would last at least a year. WTF were you thinking?

Thanks. There's just a special relationship you have with a father when you grow older and older. It's hard to explain, but I know I can always count on him if I need help. For example he spent his time to help me repair the broken headstock on my Les Paul.

Again loserface, I strongly suggest you do a few things right now.

1. Take deep breaths for a few minutes, keep your mind clear, maybe listen to some relaxing music (Comfortably Numb is great for this)

2. Take a second to think about how you want to approach your dad

3. Have the conversation with him, tell him that you are sorry, and should have asked him to do what you did. You made a mistake, and own up to it.

4. Keep a level head during your conversation, keep it from being an argument. This is the most important part, otherwise you will be talking for a much longer time, and your father will just get angrier with you in general.

thanks for the advice man... but i think all the others, espically Dennis, should shold just kept their peace, cuase im really sentistive...... and they hurt my feelings....

 

[djwilbanks]

Your dad is angry, but you don't think you hurt his feelings?

 

[QuicksilverSS]

I am not one to draw judgement on these forums..but you were wrong to do that to his guitar.Suck it up ,make friends..he is the only dad you will ever have and make it right!!
Don 't be a brat and do the right thing!!

 

[FLICKOFLASH]

[dennistruckdriver]

....espically Dennis, should shold just kept their peace, cuase im really sentistive...... and they hurt my feelings....

So, when you told me 'FU, drive your truck straight into HELL!!!!', how were my feelings being considered?
Frankly, I found it amusing, in a rather sad way.
Straighten up, little dude.

Sentisive?? Just how sensitive do you think i would be if my step daughter took one of my 30 year old guitars and sanded on it ? She knows better than to even touch any of my guitars without asking,i gave her a guitar that she respects and knows better that to even think about sanding on it.

 

[GNR4EVR]

When I got my Elitist, my 20 year old waited for me to leave the room and she decided to pick it up and swing it all around... Needless to say, I tore into her like theres no tomorrow. Its NOT about selfishness, its about how you respect HIS property. It isnt up to YOU to decide whether or not he deserves it, or even whether he can play it or not, its HIS. Respect his wishes.

No, please leave it open. There is much more advice from other concerned members for our dear little friend.
