hello to the forums from a newbie here, by the way…started playing guitar about 6 weeks ago..and loving it..i have a 1947 epiphone triumph sunburst that was my wife’s dad’s treasure…well, it’s rather intimidating to tote that around with worries of it getting bashed or stolen..so i decided to check out ebay and while i wanted a new or used takamine EG530 in good shape (played in the practice room at the music store and loved the sound, but not the price)
so, i decided to go with an alvarez ALVAREZ AD60SCBK..less cash but many seem to love (purchased new)

now, the fun begins..i go on ebay and bid on a slightly used tak eg530C…lord help me, but won that guitar ( as well as the alvarez)

so for kicks, anyone have any opinion on which i’ll like more..of course being pretty much a newbie guitarist, it’s not like i’ll know the difference..yet..but down the road, i would like to learn blues on the acoustic..see if i’ve got some soul.

opinions on either or both guitars? i’m darn excited that i’ll have 2 guitars that seem to be pretty nice units…and darn scared my wife is going to kill me when she finds out!

ps- interesting sidebar..her cousin is bob taylor from taylor guitars..my mother in law said why don’t you keep it in the family and buy a taylor..i said..i hope you have a good in cause you don’t know the price of taylor guitars!

i’ve read a # posts before registering..good info and people it looks like:)
