Im into all kinds of music i just turned 30 and my wife got me an electric guitar that i dont know how to play i cant read music but im gonna give it my best to learn if nothing else so i can sit back in the evening and pick a lil

 

I can play a bit. I have 2 guitars. And you don't have to read music. Go google up "guitar tabs" and there is a million pages of tablature sites. Tabs are alot easier to read than music. It has 6 lines, representing the strings, there is a number on the "string" telling you what fret to push down. Its really easy. Check it out.

 

Cool thanks for the tip!!! that black and white guitar is exactly like the one i got

 

The black and white one is a Harmony G-60, and the blue one is a Peavy EXP. I don't mess with that one anymore though. I use the blue one. Its a Peavy EXP. Its really nice. Sounds alot better too. Is yours a Fender or what brand?

 

Its a fender , i had mentioned to my wife a few times in the last 14 years that i always wanted to learn the guitar and i teard up when i opened it. ( think it had a lil to do with turning 30 ) LOL i don't know the difference as far as quality but I'm sure their is i was just so touched that she would go out and get me one I will use this one to get some of the basics down then will look into something better I'm sure

 

Fenders are expensive. You won't have to look into anything better. I promise. If you take care of it, you will have it for the rest of your life. Stevie Ray Vaughn had a single Fender for 18 years. Never boke and still played perfectly. You have a bar of gold in your hands. You won't find much better than fender. Gibson and a few others are the only thing better than fenders. Just my opinion.

 

Cool 8) I'm sure she asked a friend of ours that plays in a band to get his opinion she is like that. ill tell ya behind every decent man is one hell of a woman!!!!

 

I hope they are still like that by the time I get serious about it.
