Ok so as everyone knows one of my favorite things in the whole world is playing the guitar. I have a growing guitar family.
I got my first guitar about 3 1/2 years ago. I got a yamaha starters package thing. It was a pretty nice guitar. I named it rose because the pickguard looked nice and rosey to me
In 06 I got my first electric guitar. I spotted it one night at the guitar center when my mom took me there just for fun while we were waiting for nick to get out of band practice. I fell in love with it right when i saw it and i knew that i wanted it. I showed it to my mom and she loved it too. I got it for Christmas. That year is one of my favorite christmas memories. I named it curly after my mom.
In July of 07 my dad bought me this guitar. It was my first acoustic electric guitar. I loved it. It is probably my most played guitar of the three. It is named delilah because that is the first song i played on it.
This is the newest member of my family. I bought it yesterday, Saturday January 24 2009. I got some money for Christmas and I've been saving up some babysitting money so i decided that i wanted to buy a really nice, beautiful, perfect, acoustic guitar. I went on the internet and read up on quality of guitars. I picked out all the different types of wood, shapes, and colors that i wanted. I texted miriam and i asked her if she would come help me. I wanted a 3rd opinion about the perfect tone. My mom and I picked up miriam at about 3 o'clock and headed to the guitar center. We got there and headed straight to the acoustic barn. I love that place, its like heaven. It is so warm and it smells like wood. There was like 50 guitars all lined up on the wall they were all very beautiful. I went over to where my price range was. The first ones i saw were 3 taylors, and a martin. I had heard those were the most reliable acoustic brands. I played them all and loved their sounds. I played a few more epiphones but i always came back to those three. I eliminated one taylor so i was left with 2 taylors and 1 martin. I finally eliminated the martin and was left with the taylors. One of them had a very rich mellow tone and the other had a rich bright tone. I decided that i liked the bright one better. I also liked the way it looked better. I had made my final decision so i got the sales person. He was really nice and hooked me up with nice hard case. It has a really cool color of green on the inside as you can see.
I love my new guitar. I am one happy camper right now. Thanks for coming with me miriam.

The guitars name should be Doobie for sure. You are awesome.

I think Brittney is a good name. But is it really a guitar name? guitars should have girl names though...I like Ruby. I call my baby ElsieBaby, you could call your baby RubyBaby
That was a fun afternoon with you and Miriam. I am so amazed at your talent. I know you have music in your blood! I love hearing you play any of your instruments. Your love of music will always bless your life. Guitar name: Marmee (Like in Little Women)
