My oldest son has been playing guitar for a year now and just loves it. Comes home from school, has some food and then straight upstairs to play on it, which is great as I think the more hobbies away from screens these days is a big positive! I used to play a lot more when I was younger, but now I enjoy listening more than playing (I just listen to Nine Inch Nails like all day, every day… my favorite band by a mile!).
Anyway, I have some guitar jokes here that I have reviewed and that I have added to with a couple of my own. There is also a printable version of some of the jokes if you wish to print and cut them out. Hope one of them at least strums a chord with you, and if you have any other guitar puns, let me know in the comments so I can review and add them to the list!
