Here's a photo of the new guitar I just brought home!! http://www.musiciansfriend.com/guitars/ibanez-artcore-af75-hollowbody-electric-guitar

It's crazy how cheap it is. It sounds amazing!! It has a really nice jazz tone with a fender amp. Nice blues tone too. I'm so pumped!! I've been playing on a Larivee acoustic for years. And, I am completely floored at how easy it is to play this guitar. I used to think my playing was sloppy until I picked up this new guitar. I guess the electric strings are just a lot softer and the fret board is just smoother and easier to play. So, now I know what I've been missing! I just need to get an amp now. I tried it with the fender amp at the store, but I don't have one yet. Can't wait!
As a scientist, I am hostile to fundamentalist religion because it actively debauches the scientific enterprise. It teaches us not to change our minds, and not to want to know exciting things that are available to be known. It subverts science and saps the intellect. - Dawkins

So beautiful!

I love guitars.
I own a white Les Paul Studio, a Vester stage series (beginner's guitar), and a Washburn acoustic.
Not to mention I have about 5 miniature decorative guitars.

Wow! That looks good.

YouTube demo required!!!

I want to do a youtube demo! Once I get the amp, I will do it for sure!

Good for you, Asherah!  I'm happy for you.

Nice! I prefer different hardware myself, but still... Nice.

Great!  I used to play acoustic guitar when I was a kid.  I'd love to pick it back up again, but I can't decide between guitar, lute or Irish harp.

I've always liked the harp. It always seemed a much more intuitive instrument than a guitar.

Oooo, Les Paul is nice. My husband had a gold Les Paul for years and loved it.

Nice! Is that a Jackson Kelly? I'm assuming you play HM? My husband plays guitar in a metal band. :)

I found a bass amp that my husband used to use for practice. So, I'm hooking up to that tonight and will make a youtube video. Doesn't sound exactly right, but not bad.  :)

Awaiting with excitement!
