Thanks, pig. I'm looking forward to it.
Martian, I tried out a Fender and it sounded quite similar to the Yamaha I also tried. The one I got I tried last and it has a distinctively different sound. It has a fuller, richer sound, like it has more midtones and/or low-end or something.
The salesperson told me that A & E spares the cosmetics and puts their craftsmanship into the sound. The other guitars looked quite pretty in contrast, but it was the sound that sold me, of course.
As far as picks are concerned, I was given 12 as a part of the deal. So I picked up a few thins, mediums, and heavies.
Strings? I have no idea. I could barely figure out electric guitar strings. Now I have to do more research. I have a while, but it'd be nice to know what to try out next time.
