Do you play any musical instruments

I can play most things placed before me, I just have a knack for it. I can play drums, piano/keyboard, some banjo, and of course the guitar.
I saw my first guitar when I was maybe 10 or 11? That was in 97’ or so. I begged my dad to buy it. T’was a Jackson Kelly/Performer. I still have it and it has been outfitted with some Zakk Wylde EMG’s. He’s not really my favorite, in fact Randy Rhoads is. He was literally the best guitar player that never lived. EMG pickups just happened to be the bees knees when I installed them.
I also have a Jackson RR3. The Jackson’s just do it for me, but I have played many great guitars.
 
For any older beginners out there, look up Lauren Bateman on Google. She specializes in teaching beginners from about 40 years old & up. Her oldest student is in his 80's. She offers a free course as a "test drive" and have you playing songs in no time!
 
My wife has been putting a few bucks away here and there to surprise me with a early birthday gift.
This will be here Thursday. I'm a huge fan of Grote guitars and I absolutely love the 335 style.

The frets on my new guitar are very good, no buzz, no high frets and the fret ends are perfect.
However, they felt a little scratchy and dirty so I cleaned and polished them.
I even polished the pickups.

I have an Ibanez Les Paul that was given yo me in terrible condition. I should send it to you to give it a restoration. I have been wanting to take it to a shop here. The guy does really good work.
 
Unfortunately, it cost a ton of money to ship a guitar and for the most part not worth spending the money on it unless it's local.

Sweet Strat! Well done.
Thanks bud. She has always been one of my favorites.
Anybody that says Squiers suck need to have their head examined.
They are awesome guitars. This one is a Squier Deluxe.
