Funny story about my guitars. I have about $155 invested in the three of them. The first was the Spanish one that I bought for 125 Euro. I returned to the same shop to show a buddy of mine three months later and the salesman said "No way you paid 125 for this one. It's 400 Euro." I guess I got the right salesman on the right day. The next was the Epiphone DR-100 acoustic. A couple of weeks ago, I decided to start this journey and remembered that my brother had one for sale. He wanted $80, which was pretty good, but I ended up trading him $30 worth of my junk instead. Win-Win. The Les Paul was the best score. I mentioned to my brother in law last week that I was looking for a $300-$400 electric after hearing that they werer easier to play as a beginner. He hands me this $800-900 Gibson and tells me it's mine in return for listing some stuff for sale online for him.

Very blessed. I feel like I have to see this through now.
