David and I have been talking about this for a while and, due to the fact that he actually practiced during the Christmas holidays, David is now the proud owner of an SX Electric Guitar and Amp.  It is a black Stratocaster (I think) replica. He took it to his lesson on Tuesday but his teacher did not have an amp setup in the music room so he couldn’t play it.  They have agreed to alternate, one week acoustic one week electric and he…
