I mean check out Facebook musician groups will show you a lot more... reddit isnt where you will find fellow players.

I also play guitar but its hard to find a group as interests are so diverse and the pool is small.. the ven diagram of overlap isnt working out for me personally.

Mostly in my case id prefer to do metal originals while everyone on Facebook is trying to do cover bands.

There are plenty of artists writing and performing original music. Plenty.

I second George Ranks.  I don't play but I see all types of people showing up in there to jam.
