Hi Im New

Well im not THAT new to guitar...

i played classical when i was 6... that only lasted for like 3 months

One day

My friends dad took him to get a new guitar and he got a fender strat and right before we left his dad said "hey Mike, You wanna try out a guitar"
I said "sure"

An epiphone les paul goldtop caught my eye

I tried it out and was amazed

Then i was like WHOA
Because

I had turned around to look at his dad and he had the same kind of guitar and had his credit card out and had a line 6 spider with it too

walked up to me, handed me the guitar and amp some cables and a hardshell case
and said

"your ready to rock"

I was amazed he spent $700 on me and i wasnt even related to him

I still play that guitar to this day

Only been playing it since feburary

Sadly his dad died of cancer

To thank him and honor his memory my friend and I played his favorite song at his funeral on guitar
