I play acoustic and electric guitar, although I'm no Jimi Hendrix! I started out playing my older brother's acoustic in like August 2007, but then I got an electic for Xmas. I also wanted an acoustic of my own, so I got one about a month ago and started lessons on it. Playing guitar was hard for me at first, but about a month after I started I bought a Beatles chord book and got tabs off the internet and started teaching myself a lot of stuff. I soon discovered that it actually comes very natural to me and I can play a fair amount of stuff.

Always sang, but started on recorder (hey, don't laugh), then on to treble and sopranino recorders. Then guitar (had to be able to play Things we said today  -  too satisfying for words...) and now attempting to teach myself flute. I also run music groups for babies, toddlers and preschoolers. The future is bright, the future wears washable nappies...

My husband and me are more or less "arm chair" guitar players.  He plays a Fender Squire Precision Bass and I've got an old Peavy Predator strat-copy that really needs some work.  It's old, the amp's old and I'm debating about whether just to trash it and get a new one, or have it worked on.  What do y'all think????  I'd love to get the Fender Squire Strat kit and just start all over again..............

Yeah, we sit and jam and play together.  My husband is my buddy, my "partner in crime" so to say.  But I've got to either have my Peavy fixed or just toss it and get an new set up.

Possibly or there could be a local repair guy that may save you the money for a new one. :)

I found a beautiful butterscotch blonde Fender Squier Tele and I'm drooling over it.  It cost $169 USD on sale from regularly $269.  I'll try to post a picture of it.  What do you musicians think???  Trash the Peavy Predator and get this "blonde beauty"???
