Decisions, decisions



Well, the past week was very straining and busy, but fulfilling none the less. I had a lot of things to do, but felt very accomplished when I completed them. Now that I have had a whole 2 days to rest over the weekend, it's time to dive back into this ferociously busy week and do it all over again.

I find it a bit hard to ballance college with my church (www.beechstreetfbc.org) and band activities. Praise GOD for helping me get it all done. I did, however, come to find myself on the brink of an important decision. I have been contemplating purchasing a new guitar. I have played acoustic thus far, but as my musical fancy broadens, I have picked up learning a little electric from Ryan, our lead guitarist.

Here's where I would like your help. I have made several choices of guitars I am interested in. I would like you to comment and tell me your opinion is on my choices and which one of them I should get.




All of these guitars can be found at www.musiciansfriend.com. I am a big fan of the hollowbody (the two on top), The two Les Paul's are still very nice. I am not neccessarily going to get those brands, Epiphone and Ibanez are just the ones that came up first with the styles that I like. I will most likely pick up the hollowbody, if I choose it, from www.rondomusic.net. Their guitars are better made, sound great, and a lot cheaper.

So, now that I have invited you to join my dilemma, please help me out of it. As for me, I am off to try to survive this busy day and not leave GOD behind in it.

Much love and blessings,
Aaron

Thanks for visiting my blog. Now, on to the guitars!
As a fellow guitar player, I'd definitely choose a hollow body. The Les Paul is an amazing guitar, but I personally feel it jams you into a particular sound of music. Plus, they're heavy as crud!!! If you spend a lot of time on stage (like me) the added weight will start to wear you down. Besides, I've always loved the sound of an acoustic.

I'm not an electric player - but I've always loved the look and sound of a great Strat - (thanks Clapton).

On a side note - I love the direction your headed with the blog... but I just noticed all of the posts start with the word "well."
