My first guitar was a Les Paul. If I started playing on a POS guitar, maybe I would have quit. [img]graemlins/scratchhead.gif[/img] I don't think we should burn on that kid just because he has a nice guitar, (maybe he will stay out of trouble because he's at home practicing) [img]graemlins/toast.gif[/img]

Well, there are nice guitars and there's $3,800 nice.

For all we know, though, the kid's been playing since he was seven, started out on a crappy guitar and got good that his parents rewarded him with a much better guitar.

I know my parents bought me a Jackson custom shop guitar (which ran roughly $1,800 with tax at the time) when I was 17 and had been playing for a good many years and shown them I was serious, etc.

And heck, good guitars can often be had relatively cheap. A starter trumpet for my son when he was joining the school band was in the neighborhood of $600. One could get a nice guitar for that (especially if one were willing to go with something used).

Re: oh my f***ing god

What I mean is that there are actually quite a few people that disagree with your (and my) taste in music and that ripping on someone else's preferences is stupid. So fucking what if the dude plays punk? Big deal. At least he's playing. I sure hope to high holy fuck that everyone's musical preferences have changed since they were 15, I know mine sure have.

And before anyone mentions it, there's a difference between my statement of "Jimmy Page sucks" and what's going on here. The difference is, I'm not making fun of anyone because they like Jimmy Page. I state my opinion and leave it at that. Even if my opinion does usually contain choice phrases such as "blows monkey" and "isn't fit to eat my toejam (but not Toejam)".

Re: oh my f***ing god

Oh yeah, another thing, my age has fuckall to do with the relevancy of Ratt. I think they suck, that's it. If my age had anything to do with it then I also wouldn't listen to The Beatles, Sabbath, The Who, Blue Oyster Cult, Cheap Trick, Jimi Hendrix, or any one of a few dozen other artists and bands that I like whose major output was completed before I was born. The difference is that they don't suck and Ratt does (and so does Jimmy Page [img]graemlins/poke.gif[/img] [img]images/icons/grin.gif[/img] ). [img]graemlins/laugh.gif[/img]

Original poster - Who cares? This is just more petty whining from people who are jealous of other people's gear. As for the countdown... stop worrying about magaine countdowns! They're just for shits and giggles... some of you are still coping with the Rolling Stone guitarist list.

Re: oh my f***ing god

When I began my senior year in high school, I custom ordered my first Jackson. Paid for it myself from a PT job. I'm guessing the current $ value of that 1986 cost is around $3k. If you want it bad enough, you find a way to save for it.

...And, even if he didn't, so what?
