Its Electric!!

After toying with the idea of buying an electric guitar for years now, I finally had the guts confidence to really pursue it since the last few weeks. I coaxed mom and dad to no ends as to why I need a third guitar! They finally agreed. So, all of us (bro and bhabhi also tagged along) went yesterday evening to Bhatia Musicals - a shop introduced to us by my bro's violin teacher - Hari. I had already bought my Yamaha acoustic guitar from them and they are our one stop shop for music. They know their music and their suggestions are right on the mark. I had a budget in mind which was 15K for the entire package.The guy suggested a Fender Telecaster California series guitar which was decent for an intermediate level player and a good value for money. It costs Rs. 9500 or so. It has a nice deep crunchy tone. I coupled that with a Marshall MG 10 amp and had a nice time jamming in the shop. I was a bit apprehensive as I had never played an electric before but as soon as the distortion was on, I was able to belt out some AC/DC tunes with ease. We wrapped it up and the entire package cost me 14K or so.

Coming back home, I couldn't resist plugging it in right away and I was up all night yesterday playing. Its awesome! Its really good for hard rock, but for heavier stuff, I would have to get a processor to really unleash the metal. But for now, I'm pretty happy with this. Rock On!
