    So.. uh.. I just got back from guitar center...

    I GOT A NEW GUITAR!
    I'm really happy. Before this I used a crappy yamaha I got for christmas of 2003. Now I have something decent to play. :)
    It's a faded gibson SG special. I got it for 600 + tax. The amp is a VOX AD30VT and man is it sweet.

    Edit: Almost forgot, thanks RRFireblade for giving me the advice on buying a guitar. You rawk. :)
    All I can say is...




    boner

              Now that is a really cool guitar.

              You have me by 2 years, I have a 1964 Martic Acoustic, plays like a dream.

                What are you playing?
                Whatever I feel like
                Usually alternitive rock, indie, whatever..

                I dont like SG's.
                rar.
                I was testing one of these against an epiphone les paul custom and this one won. I liked the les paul custom too though :)

                Whats the SG version above the one that you bought??
                No idea. www.gibson.com heh

                Thanks again fireblade. Nice guitar


                I really like this amp too. I had already picked this one out just by reading reviews and such and then when I got to the store I told him I had around 200 to spend on an amp and he immediately pulled this one out. That was a good sign

                Sounds great. Couldn't be happier

                  Nice guitar; my guitar player is thinking of buying a Gibson SG.

                  Right now as far as a bass goes I'm playing an Ibanez BTB 5-string, but with some luck I will have a Warwick thumb pretty soon.

                  EDIT: Get us some recordings!

                        I'll make some recordings but my mic is really crappy. Is there like an adapter I can buy to downsize the big guitar cable into my mic slot in my sound card?

                        Yeah I've been saving up for a while.. I used christmas money and money from a race framed cocker I sold. My mom paid for the amp but I told her I'd come up with the money to pay for it. If not I think It's going to be a birthday present which kind of sucks because my birthday is 2 months away and I wont have any presents

                        I have a strat rip-off.. I thought it was a piece of crap but actually it sounds kind of nice with my new amp. Still plays pretty bad though.

                        I like the finish too. It was this dark brown color or a 'cherry' color. I like this more :)

                          if it is a guitar jack (right name= 1/4" stereo jack) and not a mic jack then the answer is yes. i have a few. (the jack on the soundcard is a 1/8" stereo jack) you can pick thm up at walmart, you may have to buy a coil extension cord with it though.

                          mic jack is very different it looks like this on the end:
                          | __
                          | /o o\
                          | |o i o|
                          | \___/

                          (is round) (kind of like a ps2 port for you keyboard or mouse, only bigger)

                            You can get a 1/4" to 1/8" jack to plug straight into your computer, but you will lose sound quality. Miccing your amp works much better.

                              Meh, I'll try it.

                              My mic cost like $5 on ebay, but maybe I'll get around to recording some stuff tommorow.
