What's your cliched guilty pleasure?
Mine is chugging on the open low F# on my 8 string. That sound is so satisfying.

Re: Guitar fun
My warm up, the first thing I play when I pick up a guitar is the opening solo to Ten Year's After 'I'm Going Home', Woodstock version.
After that, I do a lot of noodling with frequent deep, fast vibrato string bends, ala Peter Green & Danny Kirwan.

Re: Guitar fun
Sometimes I put very well-known licks from other songs into my own solo, knowing full well that it sounds cheesy.

Wow, Alvin Lee was a beast. Impressive, any recordings of you playing that?

No, but it did take a while to learn that. Since I don't want to forget it, I play it regularly.

The riff to “Heavy Metal“ by Sammy Hagar.
So simple, but for some reason I just love the $hit out of it!

Re: Guitar fun
Slow, heavy riffs in drop D (or lower-tunes versions).
Or the hardcore joy of the classic root - minor 3rd - 4th - flat 5th/ 4th/ minor 3rd/ root progression.
Like the chorus of this song:

Re: Guitar fun
There's also nothing quite close to the childlike joy I get from playing a punk riff and achieving *that tone. Along those same lines, the piano player at my church (I don't brag about him enough on this website, he's got a doctorate in physics and a masters in music theory) will sometime play the instrumental to The Clash's The Card Cheat during the offertory in a way that sounds grand yet reverent. To this day that is the only thing in the world that will consistantly make me crack a smile.

Alvin Lee. An absolute monster player. His playing at Woodstock is otherworldly (I've seen the movie countless times).
Warming up for me consists of anything from running through scale and pattern runs to playing chords of various songs. The other night at rehearsal, I warmed up playing Mr. Scary. It all depends on what I'm feeling but I always run though some scale patterns and licks to get the fingers limber.
