No electric guitar will ever look or sound as beautiful to me as this guitar, or many of the others I've owned.

 

I still love electric... I just don't have the patience for it anymore. So much going on. I got fed up with all the different elements. Pedals, amps, pickups, tremolos. Oi!

I don't get it, where's the volume, tone and p'up selector controls? :confused:

 

Is it good for metal too?

Earlier in the year I got my first real guitar, a cheapie $100 acoustic from Best Buy my brother bought me sort of as a late Christmas present. They also had cheap electric guitar + amp stuff too. After playing a couple months with the acoustic I was wishing he'd have bought me the electric. Then I got my first electric and hardly played the acoustic. Now I realize that the acoustic first was good because having an electric that just was horrible would've been a bad experience most likely. I have my acoustic next to the computer, since there's no room for the electric so I end up playing it at least 20% of the time, which is good for me.

 

So I can see why some people play acoustic. To get away from all the hassle of tech stuff. Hawt guitar bro :p

Does a guitar has to sound "beautifull"? If you think about it, some of the best electric sounds in history are far from "beautifull": they are nasty, weird, raging, far out, cute, devilish, fat, airy, hairy, eerie ... but not really "beautifull" in the common sense. But we love it, don't we?

I have fun with my acoustic but for what I want acoustics are just too one dimensional. I'm not going to learn to be phenomenal on one and there is just SO much more I want to accomplish on electric that spending too much time on acoustic is a distraction. So it's there for a little color when I need it.

you know, as much as I love the electric guitar, a nice acoustic guitar can make me forget all about it too!

 

I really want a Collings D1A + 12 guage strings + a bluechip guitar pick = glorious
