Finally! It's a Oscar Schmit from Washburn. Og2tpak, it plays like a beauty! Even sounds better than my friends Epihpone Aj100!

Heartbreak said: "Congrats on getting one but I hate them. Grade 11, I took a Guitar class. I was the only black kid in the class. I was friends with the only girl in class. We'd just sit in the soundproof room and talk. When it came down to testing, I would do better than her yet she'd get the better mark. The teacher didn't allow sweaters in the room....yet he let her wear hers. He was on trial for sending love notes back and forth with a female student a couple years back. I think this explains why I worked harder and had a bad mark yet she got an extremely better mark than I. I hate guitars." Wel that sucks , but why hate guitars for it?

We are a stubborn group of musicians and pride in our ability to play is a huge part of what drives us. New wave of guitarist < Me playing Guitar hero acoustically.

Everyone and their mother plays the guitar. Only a few are good so I guess it's cool.

I hate guitars because now my dad is never going to buy me anything that I want him to buy me because I won't use it " Then play your guitar again. Or give it to me. :D

I know people who practice for longer than you could ever dream of. Does that give them the right to tell you that you suck and should stop playing? They'd have the right to tell you that you aren't pro....right?

Yet they decide to show off how awesome they are. I consider myself to be pretty decent. Also guess what those people don;t have the right because guess what? I'm actually GOOD at guitar. I have bragging rights. The enw wave SUCK at guitar therefore they don't deserve bragging rights.
