With one of my guitars (me beloved taylor) I combined it as a christmas and birthday present+I payed for half of it. You might want to try a compromise like that.

If i keep saying "please please..." my dad will think I'm not growing up or something. he's a nice guy but he's strict as hell. and he like always gets the last word and stuff even when I know i'm right.

so..for my latest guitar I told my dad the school music teacher gets stuff half off and the teacher said i only have to pay him half of what he has to pay and its mine. so I told my dad I only had to pay $120 and that was my christmas cash anyway. :rolleyes:

...I think I'm the only person not in a loop so that makes me cool. :cool:
