i\'ve also got a beat to hell mexistrat, an ibanez acoustic-electric, a thoroughly abused ovation acoustic and a yahama acoustic that was at woodstock. it doesn\'t get played much due to irreparably bad action, but its apparently sort of rare so i\'ve held onto it. i\'ve been playing 21 years and am 33. jimi hendrix forced me to pick up the guitar. clapton, santana, srv and the three kings kept me playing. i am my own band and we\'re known as the livingroom rockstars!

other notable factoid~ i\'m on the archive sitting in with bands twice. both times i\'m nearly inaudible on acoustic in the background. both times that\'s probably a good thing. :lol:

what kind of guitar is that in the pic? looks purrrrrty

[jking]

ooops, guess that would help, huh?! its a schecter. great, cheaply priced guitars!! that one i got in mint condition used for exactly $420.00. well, they wanted 419.99, but i told them to keep the change... my complaints are that i seem to be breaking strings a lot lately, but i think that\'s just because i\'m a bastard to my guitars. the low e will slide of the saddle sometimes when i\'m really pounding it. i also wish the whammy bar version had been available, but i\'ve been surprised at how little i tend to miss having one (been a strat guy my whole life). every now and then i find myself getting to a spot where a whammy would be perfect, but usually not anymore. the neck feels right in between a fender and a gibson neck and its light as hell. and all of their finishes are beautiful!
