Not a guitarist, but if I was, I'd play a Tele and Les Paul. I love those things.

That Gretsch is nice!
I want that wooden Strat at the end.
I totally lucked up on a Tele..an absolute beauty... black cherry and like in the video, it was in mind condition at a pawn shop for less than $400...with a nice hard case.
I have an SX Les Paul Special and it plays great, but it's heavy AF.
I know the feeling bruh.
Picked up that P Bass. Gonna get a Fender Bass amp today from Guitar Center. I have a Roland Jazz 600 amp for my Ibanez LBG30. That's not gonna work for bass I'm quickly learning. 
I've seen that video about 8 times and I'm not sure I made it to the end once lol.
First time I watched it, I heard that beautiful TONE on the Gretsch and immediately went to find other videos of it. If it sounds that good in person and feels good too, it's a wrap.
Yeah that Strat's nice as well. Pretty too. I like the natural wood of it and the large early 70s headstock. Good price too.
Les Pauls are heavy, but man, that tone!!!
That Fender P Bass II is considerably heavier than the Jazz bass but it's not uncomfortable for me at all. Gonna get a foot stool to play on too. My uncle had one and it makes a difference trust me. Very comfortable having your leg up a bit.
Can play the beginning riff to Cream's "Sunshine of your love" on bass. Shit sounds cool as fuck too.
Don't sleep on the Monoprice offerings, especially for those on a budget and don't know if they'll fully commit:

That bass line is so classic...I remember humming to it as a kid.
Yeah, when you can play a riff note for note and it sounds just like the record, that's a great feeling of accomplishment.
Bruhhhhh, good looking out on this!
I recently bought a Chinese made guitar and the stuff made cheaply is getting pretty good. I checked out those Indio guitars and the reviews and you can't beat the prices for the quality.
And like you said, you may not be ready to drop a grand or more for a guitar. This gives you a good feel for a more expensive ax and let's you decide if you'd wanna spend the money for the real deal.
I thought I wanted a large semi hollow ax. When I started playing a $160 Chinese made Grote, I found it plays great, but it's so much bigger than my others that it hurts my shoulder...woulda spent a minimum of $2k to get a Gibson, that I wouldn't wanna play everyday.
I told a family member about them and he went and got 2 of them. The reviews were mostly positive and he said they play like the big dogs.
I'm an admitted snob regarding guitars and the ones I like I've wanted for years. But, for the average beginner, those Chinese copies are really good.
I've wanted a Les Paul Standard forever, but it's $3 grand. I saw a couple of those Indios for under $300...might try one out.
For sure.
I don't know if you know, Guitar Max
But he demoes and reviews inexpensive hidden guitar gems and gear. He's given positive reviews to Monoprice amps.
I'm not a guitar player myself but I have bought plenty of Monoprice products over the years. They make great bang for your buck equipment. I've heard lots of positive about these guitars for them to be under $300.
Yup. And only a week and a half practicing with the bass too. I'm making phenomenal progress
@woodchuck Wood, I pretty much got down Kool & The Gangs "Jungle Boogie" on the P Bass. I broke it down into 4 small sections. Went over it slowly and had no problems after that.
Some good insight from George Benson

I watched some of these vids....
Mannnn, listening to him talk about music is like hearing another language. Dude just knows it backwards and forward.
@woodchuck Check this out. Love these Stevie basslines. Scott Devine's bass teaching site is phenomenal
Learned the Sugar Hill Gang's Rappers Delight baseline on my P Bass. My speed and technique are coming together on bass.

Yooooo, that’s wassup....
Would, love,to hear it.
I was just thinking about this thread....wondering how everyone was progressing.
just copped a wah wah...working on some ol 70s kinda strumming...think I’m gonna learn the them from Shaft.
Other than that, just practicing everyday...
s/n...that chick’s bad af! Ya know you got big ass tits, when you can set them on a table.
I'd nut right in this bitch with great fury my man. 
Yeah I'm coming along very well on bass and guitar. Getting better with arpeggios and scales too. I'm doing well with alternative picking as well.
Very interesting that I prefer playing the Bm chord with two fingers instead of 3. It's much less stressful on the hand and I actually have no problem getting tone from the 6th string. Chord changes are easier that way also.
This is an excellent video to watch.
Watch this when you get time
Shit almost had me drop $500 for one.
She is distracting as hell. CSI?Learned the Sugar Hill Gang's Rappers Delight baseline on my P Bass. My speed and technique are coming together on bass.
