This is about my Electric Guitar. It’s a Fender Strat Copy by Monterey. My Dad loves Gibson SG’s and has two of them, one burgundy and the other is Tiger striped. He also has a Gibson Flying V copy which is pretty cool.

I love playing the Guitar in my room. I’m starting to learn a few songs and a few ‘riffs’. My favourite riffs are ‘Pink Floyd’ and some of the older rock songs.

My Guitar was given to me when I was 7 years old by my Dad. He bought it off a customer who he did some tiling for. The boy that owned it had not played it for a year or more. It was given to him by his Dad as well. He had some lessons but did not continue with it and left it under his bed. My Dad had to take all his stuff out of his room to tile the floor and noticed the Guitar and asked what was being done with it. My Dad has played the guitar since he was about 10 years old. Thats 33 years he’s been playing for and still loves it. He checked out out the guitar and saw that it was pretty good for a beginner. They ended up settling on a price of $250 which included the 50 watt Amplifier with built in Overdrive. Whoooot!

I love the colour and my Dad has set it up with a low action to make it easier to play. I like to belt songs out of it, but Dad says you don’t need to bash it to get a good sound. Gently sounds just as good and I won’t break strings or scratch the front with my pick.

The Amplifier is a bit heavy to carry around. So i’ve also got an Acoustic Guitar that is a bit crappy.
