So, if anyone remembers, I had a little depression awhile back. Basically the guitar was just staring at me and laughing and it shook me to the core. Anyways, with the help of everyone here, I broke through it and am tryin to get better everyday. Anyways, during this time of depression, word got around to one of my distant cousins who used to own a music shop. It unfortunately went out of business along time ago so i never knew about it. My aunt told me I should have lunch with him just to talk about music and whatnot so I was like "whatever, it really doesn't matter. I suck at the guitar." So I went and had lunch and all of a sudden he busts out a Blueridge acoustic guitar (retail around $1000) and tells me not to give up on the guitar because he's been where I was and didn't really put his heart back into it. I was floored. Needless to say I went home and played the hell outta some guitar for the rest of the night (the best i could atleast)
So that's my story. Thought maybe someone might want to hear it.
