^ Very nice.
Good luck with the guitar.I bought a guitar! I am super excited about it too. I've wanted to learn to play for awhile, and now I can finally get going. I bought a travel-size acoustic guitar used off craigslist. It is in excellent condition, and the guy I bought it from was super nice, he threw in an extra set of strings and a convenient case. I paid $75 and I'm very pleased with it.
I wanted an instrument that I can bring to the classroom and play with my kids (kindergarten, 1st, and 2nd grade). I didn't want to spend too much money in case I don't enjoy it as much as I hope I will, so this little guitar really was the perfect choice: cheap, easily transportable. I'm trusting my experience on the cello, violin, and mandolin to allow me to learn on my own, with the aid of online tutorials, since I can't really afford lessons. I was able to learn the mandolin and violin on my own (though I haven't really played any instrument in years). Who knows, it might rekindle my passion for the cello as well!
^ I LIKE that. Nice, simple, elegant, classic. What a man's watch SHOULD be.

Okay, chords are much more difficult for me on a guitar compared to a mandolin -- I have very small lady hands! But I've learned, though not mastered, D, G, Am chords, and an E flat scale! I practiced for about 20 min, and would do more but I've got work early. I think this was a good investment!Good luck with the guitar.I bought a guitar! I am super excited about it too.

I had books to help me with it, and I can strum an OK series of chords if I practise hard. I actually found re-learning chord progression theory to be fun again.

I wanted to get that for the 360 but it doesn't have the greatest Genesis game ever, Herzog Zwei."Sonic's Ultimate Genesis Collection" for PS3. I was feeling nostalgic.
