I thought it was a pretty good April Fools joke a few days ago when Justin told me that he had bought a new guitar, and showed it to me. I just about freaked out because money has been way too tight to even think about buying a new guitar! He let me rant and rave for a few minutes before showing me that it wasn’t a new guitar – it was his old one, with a new pick guard on it! I was embarrassed, but relieved, and that is the truth!
Have you ever looked at the price of guitars? And seen how many different types there are? Sometimes Justin and I go to the local guitar stores and look at what they have. He and I have about the same taste in color and style. But there is so much more to it than just looking good. It has to sounds good, and you have to know what sound suits your style of playing before you can pick out a new guitar.
