Did you get you new axe yet? When you do tell us all about it. I remember my first electric. I had about 4 acoustics before I bought my first electric guitar... if you could call it that. It was around '81 and I ordered it out of a Sears catalog. I don't recall it having a name on it. It was a red Les Paul copy with an onboard amp and speaker below the bridge. The neck was weak enough to bend almost a half step up if you pulled back on it. But the speaker gave off some satisfying distortion at high volumes and the built in tremolo effect was fun to play with. I learned a lot on that little funky guitar.
