For a lack of a better thread, I am gonna throw this in here:
I had track training on tuesday ( a sprinters session just purely for speed) but I kinda did it half arsed, since all but one of my usual training partners have left my group and the one that stayed is not very fit at the moment. In short I wasnt concentrating on the session and wasnt happy with it afterwards (eventhough some people later told me that the form was pretty good etc.).
So as a way to make up for it (or better: punishment) I went to the gym yesterday doing an intense weight lifting workout, only to find out half an hour later that I was to lead the evening strength and conditioning session. So, taking all into account, I am in intense pain today and both sitting and standing (and obviously walking) causes me some sort of physical discomfort...
Happy Days!

Oh no, I knew about the muscles that are aching. Mainly quads and hamstrings... But I think I went a little over the limits with the weights on Wednesday...

Does anyone have any experience with the Epiphone Casino?
It's on my top 3 of guitars I'd love to own, up there with Gibson Les Paul and the Stratocaster.
There's a fine line between "psychotherapist" and "psycho the rapist"

I don't. It is a nice sounding guitar however, and isn't really that expensive at all. Are you thinking of buying one?

I am considering it, as I mentioned it's one of the guitars I'd like to own. However, the other two are quite expensive so for me at the moment it's a better option.

If you've got the money you should go for it. But in saying that, waiting and saving for one of the more expensive guitars is definitely worth it. I Only recently got a strat after a bit of saving, and it's most definitely worth the wait. Quality better than I could have imagined.

It's not a money-problem, that's of on issue. It won't be for a couple of years anyway since I've got neighbours on both sides of me and I wanna spare them the pain  I can use my acoustic, but an amp wouldbe too much for these thin walls.
I've always wanted a Strat (who hasn't?), but they cost a fair amount. I've looked in a couple of shops and the price for the Strat and Les Paul were both rougly 3-4 times as much as the Epiphone.

When it comes to guitars, I can only say: the better ones (Stratocaster!) are worth it. Buying a cheap, crappy guitar is a bad decision. You need a guitar that feels great, sounds great. You have to enjoy playing it, love the feel of it, only then you'll make real progress.
With a cheap guitar you're likely to toss it aside and get sick of playing the guitar.
Just my opinion |
