So I figured I would venture into the dark side and decided to buy this beautiful 2010 660 in Mapleglo. I play bass , but thought it might be a good idea to broaden my music horizon and pick up this sweet guitar. Now I just have to figure out how to play it. The string are sooo skinny.

Dark side? Mapleglo?

Congrats, Scott!

Guitar is not all that hard to learn, after all, it only has six skinny strings on it, how hard can that be?

No one says you HAVE to play chords on a guitar!

You can always spell out arpeggios, just like playing bass!

Now we have to get you to add pics to the registry entry!

Yes I will have to get some photos on the register, the guitar is added, but not showing up as of yet.

The sage once said,
"Man does not live by bass alone. He needs a guitar to show the other guys in the band how it's really supposed to be played."
