You need this guitar.

Bump.

Did you ever get a guitar? The guitar market is different than it was in 2012. CL is full of guitars for $30-50, and you can get a direct-from-China acoustic with proper full-size neck but smaller body (more comfy, less loud) for something like $40 shipped complete with accessories.

Wife got one of those, and wanted me to help teach her, and of course that got me fooling around with guitars and now I have one too. Something's going on with my body, a lot of things are less sensitive than they used to be (mostly a good thing), and that includes my finger injury...I doubt I'll ever be able to do hammerons with it but it seems I can successfully fret strings with it now. I'll probably use .008 ultra-light string sets on everything and try to put together such a set for my 12-string to see if I can manage to fret double strings on that with my frankenfinger.

you can buy like squiers(fender made by cez's family) and epiphones (gibson's made by cez's family) for like a 150 bucks or less. they are quality guitars made by the top of the line companies only difference is they are put together by cheaper labor in mexico. be nice if gm did that with the trucks rather than charge full price for one that cost them half as much to build. anyhow they arent knock offs they are made by fender or gibson and even say it on them (ie epiphone by gibson on the tag). i highly advise that rather than getting a generic. bad thing about a generic is the necks warp they wont hold tune etc....

i own a epiphone studio 335 semi hollow body electric. wife got it for 120 bucks on musicians friend on a scratch and dent sale. it didnt even have a scratch on it the box was just tore and they stuck it in another box. i can play the basic chords ok but i never get time to practice so i cant play shit really.

Scored this bass for $17 via CL. Needs wires resoldered, maybe electronics replaced.
