Bought my first one about a month ago, a few days after I turned 39. So far, I haven't bought another one but not a day goes by that I don't drool over the Epi 400SG. I'd also like to have an acoustic. My dad has a 60's era Kay archtop that I keep trying to get him to send me since he hasn't played it in 25 years.
I read somewhere that learning to play was a sort of negotiation between you and your guitar. I now believe it.
So much to learn, so many callouses to build.™
