Illusion of Words

Cheers for my new guitar!

It was quite a sudden thing, actually. I was aching to go to a local guitar store - online buying would technically be cheaper, but who knows what would happen along the way? And it’s quite a bother to carry huge boxes from the main building to my dorm. So I managed to get someone to get me and a friend to the guitar store… where I saw a couple of Fenders (the store was the only store in Jackson authorized to sell Fenders)…. and there was only one Fender Mex Strat with 3 single coils. The others were varied. And the color was electron blue. Not quite the midnight wine I had wanted, but I saw some other Squiers… and I thought, perhaps the blue is prettier after all. I decided to take it, and of course I needed an amp. There was a good deal online - half price for the ugly pink color Vox DA5 which nobody wanted (I assume). I planned to get that reluctantly, but anyways, I was telling the sales guy that I am thinking of that particular amp, to which he said they actually had an used amp - a Vox DA10! So I got double the size for 30 bucks cheaper than what the DA5 would’ve cost new and non-pink. So yay! no pink amp to clash horribly with my blue guitar.

That said, I pretty much have no idea what sounds good and what sounds bad (unless it’s really bad). Still quite a beginner in this matter, and perhaps may take longer than some to actually know the difference. But I do my research thoroughly. So I don’t know whether it’s that good, but at least I know some hundreds think it’s awesome…

Hmm. My room is apparently really messy - cleaner than some, but still quite a mess…
