I tried showing my tits, but I thought this would be more shocking. Anyway, who cares, if I offend a few people, I'm sure to increase my web traffic, and who knows, maybe we'll sell some strings." |

Location: Phoenix AZ | If jesus was alive today, what kind of guitar do you think he'd play? He was a carpenter, so he'd probably be into wood. But I don't think he was into bling, actually he was pretty poor, no shoes or anything right? Maybe a used guitar? Oh, maybe a ukulele. Easy to carry from place to place. I'm not poking fun or kidding around. This is a serious question.

Shut Up Witko!! :p :D :p :D
Clearly, from a Biblical point of view, Jesus would not play a guitar (or strings) That the mainstream religious, or popular political parties embraced as the "Best". He would be playing the gear that was available to everyone at little cost if they were willing to let go of tradition, change their style a bit, and not let others opinions keep them out of the "Kingdom of Guitars". The other important attribute of this kind of gear is that knowledge of it is meant to be shared. |

With this particular Jesus, you'll probably actually get a response. |

Option 1: Some old used no name brand, that he rescued and tweaked with his carpentry skills, to be really sweet (Which I think is the most likely), or
Option 2: Some beautique thing, and if anyone complained that he should sell it for the poor, he'd tell them, let the person who gave it to me have the satisfaction of giving it, for the poor you will always have with you, but you won't alway have me. |

Location: Upper Left USA | Ok Dave. you are obviously coming down from your new guitar high! :rolleyes:
First of all, Jesus was a Carpenter's son and although he was most likey put to work in the business, there is no reference that it was his actual trade. Back in those days all of the male jews were raised and taught the handed down traditions and verbal "bible". If they got to a point where they couldn't recite what was expected they were released to work the family trade full time. Usually about the age of 13, or "manhood" Stage One.
At the age of 12 Jesus was found in the Temple of Jerusalem teaching. I guess he got to keep pursuing his real day job.
Also, the Maji left gifts of gold and fankinsense (bling) along with myhrr which is a burial herb. The family had to do a lot of fleeing and bribing to escape the local sherrif. My guess is they were not poor, just transitory.
No data on when Joseph died or how. Looking at their connections the family probably didn't work the home improvement biz.
I know they yelled, jumped and danced in his ministry. I don't know when they let guitarists in the band though. If I was still a Lutheran I'd be waiting for the organist to die before there was an opening. |

There's nothin' wrong with it as long as your foot's on the Rock and your name's on the Roll. |

| King David skillfully played a string instrument unto the Lord. No doubt an ancient lute or lyre. He also danced unto the Lord. I've been to some Messianic celebrations. The music was very unique, very original, quite a celebration. Perhaps 1st century Palestine was similar in style. |

Location: GATLINBURG TENNESSEE :) | ...Back to the photo and the question of which police department it is ... I agree with Lanaki, I grew up in the LA area, and it is common practice to pull people over and slam their faces to the ground. But I guess that's what happens when you have so many freaks running around the streets shooting at each other. |

Jesus would play the crappy guitar that he borrowed from the starving street musician...
But when he handed it back to the dude, it would be an Adamas.
After that, whenever the dude played, he would wow the crowd...
And people would invite him to crash at their house, and share the wealth.
The dude would play Praise music, and testify to the Miracle.
Someone make a Christian Rock video outta that! |
