I'm very happy!

As of today, I now own my very first acoustic guitar. I haven't actually played an acoustic for over 10 years...since playing the classical guitars in high school.

With the help of aberkok, I picked out a Canadian-made Art & Lutherie Spruce Burgundy. These things are handcrafted in Quebec and use over 95% Canadian wood. (Yes, this makes it more sentimental to me.) I picked it up for $269 at Steve's on Queen West here in Toronto.

I haven't actually played it yet (though I did noodle around a bit in the store to hear the sound), so I'm going to get off this computer thingy to enjoy my new baby!

Learning to play will be much more rewarding now, as before I was learning on an unplugged and rather beaten up electric guitar.
