Thanks to Chucklivesonmyheart recomendation I finnally got my electric guitar. I got a black GAX70. I went to several guitar shops and tried different ones. It was a close decision between a fender and the GAX70. I got a crate amp that has few effects and sounds very good for 15w.
Learning rock/alternative songs have become easier. I still practice on my acoustic, but I love my electric!
I even attempted sweet child o mine from GN'R! that was like a reality check... I am not to that level yet.. but I can play the intro al least!

thanks!!!!!!
