Not available at this time

I noticed that Justin had left the computer on overnight, and he had left the screen on a website that showed that the synyster gates guitar he was looking for is not available at this time at that store. I wonder why he left that on for me to see. Is that a hint that he wants me to help him look for one to buy? I’ll have to remember to ask him about that when I see him after work today.

Money is really tight, especially around Christmas. I can tell you right now that there is no way I could afford to buy Justin a guitar for his Christmas gift. And besides, buying a guitar is a very personal choice. You can’t just go pick out anything that catches your eye. You have to play it and check to see if the sound is right for your style of playing.

Change It Up

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.
