I just bought my first electric guitar last week, so I felt like sharing. I've been enjoying the recent amp threads, but you guys live in a different world than I do!
I've had an old acoustic for years and been taking lessons finally. I picked up an Epiphone Les Paul Standard from Craigslist and a $30 Crate to go with it.
Maybe 10 years from now my guitar posts will include comments on $1,000 amps and riders. For now my repertoire includes Meatplow and Everlong and that's about it.
