: Does anyone have any info on Cobain about his equipment,when
: he got it? How he got it? and so on. I am a crazy Nirvana fan and
: would like to know a bit more. Are barre chords important? Are they
: hard to learn

:u fuckin fool, of course bar chords are essential. your hardly gonna play heavy shit with the basic easy chords! ok im sorry 4 bein such an asshole but come on! anyway heres my advice: practice bar chords on a shitty acoustic guitar, this way your fingers will get stronger so when u pick up an electric guitar it will be a relief because the action (distance of strings from the fretboard) is closer and better and the strings are softer and of a lighter gauge. also, use some 8 or 9 gauge strings on the electric. use the acoustic till your fingers bleed, then you will be ready for the electric. bar chords (go to guitar.com to find some chords tablature) are hard to play at first but dont give up. if u spend time and give effort to mastering the guitar you wont regret it. i hope this helps u. email me when u read this.
ps. sorry getting pissed off
