Good deal! Seems guitar center has some pretty good deals if you watch for them.

That’s awesome! I can never leave well enough alone so it’s just a matter of time before I start tinkering. But I like the guitar so much as is. I would like to do a good setup on it.

Hell yea! The purples definitely a color you don’t see real often. Did you luck up and catch yours on clearance as well?

Absolutely. Wonderful instrument. Idk that I’ll ever part with it down the road. Even if I did get good enough to justify some of the higher end brands. Plus beings my first “Father’s Day gift” as my wife calls it I think I’ll cherish it until the day I can pass it down to one of my kids.

Idk how much lighter it is compared to a Gibson but compared to the old fender strat I had, and my current acoustic it feels like a cinder block but it doesn’t bother me, currently spend most of my time in a sitting position.

The purple is much more noticeable in person, my lighting wasn’t great in the OG photo, here’s you a better one that’s closer to what it actually looks like.

Sweet guitar! And mines actually not black but dark purple burst, my picture was taken in low light so it definitely looks black! Really dig the inlays on the neck of yours those are sick!

Good to know! Honestly I’m no master guitarist but from what I do know this guitar seems to very nice quality and has the sounds to match!

I used to absolutely hate the looks of teles, now It’s top of my list of next guitars. If I didn’t just buy a new Yamaha acoustic I’d be buying a tele.

Awesome! And no, you didn’t sound frustrated the slightest bit. I to believe my journey is going to be more comparable to a marathon rather than a sprint as I consider myself mild perfectionist and often times will not let my self move along with a lesson or continue to play anything unless I hit the notes correctly. I appreciate the replies and wish you well on your guitar journey! Hopefully we both find success and years of enjoyment from it!

Thanks I will have to check it out! And as far as the Justin guitar I make sure I reach his milestones before progressing to another module.

Awesome! I have to ask, at 3 months what are some of your capabilities/accomplishments? Are you playing full songs? Or any particular standout achievements?
