Guitars & Whatnot
I've really gotten back into playing guitars in the last 6 months. I played a little bit as a kid, took a year of lessons, but never really got into it. The, during the next 20 some years or so I would pick it up for a week or two every few years. Never getting any good. Well, this time is definitely different. A few of my friends have also started getting into it, and we're having a great time. I'm trying to learn some theory and all that shit, which is tough, but I am getting better. I went out and bought myself a nice new Breedlove Atlas Stage D25/SR a few months ago and I am loving it.
Now it is time for me to start thinking about more guitars....(I have an addictive personality, and just like bikes, you can't have just one guitar). I think I want a nice Gretsch, maybe a Les Paul or a Strat, or possibly a Paul Reed Smith. And I'm going to need some amps....hmmm, starting to get expensive. But not that bad....For the price of 1 nice bike, I can get a few guitars and amps, and be set for a while (do you like how I can justify this?). So one of my thoughts is that I need to sell one of my extra bikes, or at least some stuff, and put that towards my guitar fund. Anyone looking for a 51cm (XL) Salsa Primero? Great shape. Or even better, are there any guitar shop owners out there that like to ride bikes and want to trade? If any of you have a friend that owns a music shop and rides bikes, please let me know, or let them know that I want to meet them!
I had a good ski on Sunday. Well, I didn't really ski well - but it was fun. I've taken too much time off in the last month with Inventory and being sick and then my back was sore and blah blah blah....Time to start skiing again - Tues, Thurs, Fri, Sat & Sun - woohoo!
