So, as some of you know, I'd started learning how to play guitar when I picked up Rocksmith. Unfortunately, I lost my job a short time thereafter and my drive to play really diminished despite my newfound massive free time. Anyhow, recently I started back up again, primarily because my wife squirreled some cash away to help me get this:



I was playing a black Epiphone Jurior before that, but the jack was all messed up and it didn't register some of the notes when I'd play Rocksmith and I didn't feel like re-soldering the loose connection; it was a pawn shop guitar anyhow, so I'm only out like fifty on that one.

This new one's a Sky guitar, apparently they're some company that mainly does pipe fittings and other plumbing equipment and shit but also makes guitars. I know their acoustics get trashed roundly, but this one's got pretty good sound and she got it for like a hundred bucks. She'd heard me talking about a flying V for a long time, mostly because I have trouble with weird arm proportions getting around the body. So, yeah, new guitar. Woo!
