Guitar customization

You may recall my complaint about the aesthetics of my new guitar. Luckily it was an easy tweak to make the look more pleasing. I pulled off the amber knobs that came on the guitar and replaced them with some chrome ones. Here's the result:

Original amber knobs

New chrome knobs

The new knobs look great, and my repository of chords is gradually growing.

Birthday comes early

My birthday arrived a week early this year! I got the call from Note-able yesterday that my new guitar arrived. I love the colour and the look of it: an Epiphone Les Paul Standard Plus Top in translucent blue (not quite a Gibson, but close enough for me). The only complaint I have is the amber knobs. I'm going to look into replacing them with chrome ones to match the other hardware.

So far I've had about an hour to play it, and I can't wait for tomorrow to come so I can play some more.

I forgot my camera in Crossfield last weekend; better pictures to come when I get it back.
