I just ordered a Mustang II amp and a Squier CV 50s Strat today. Got a great deal from MF, who beat all other coupon / in store deals. Read many posts here and the FUSE forum that helped with decision. So thanks for your help.

I am getting back into electric after a few years away to focus on acoustic bluegrass, fiddle tunes, and weekly bluegrass jams. I miss playing the blues, and I want to improve my skills. I'd like to learn some classic rock as well. I had sold off a lot of equipment (Blues Junior, several Guitars, original GDEC, Vox Amp, etc, etc.). Man those Mustangs were enough to get me out of hibernation!

I look forward to being a part of this community.

Guitslinger: Thanks for the nice welcome and for letting me know it was "okay" to like bluegrass. If you've ever been to a BG jam, you'd know it's not unlike a blues jam, in that people all know a certain tune and then take turns taking breaks/solos.

Ceallach: Not sure what your point is.

Congrats on the new gear and welcome to the Lounge!

No problem Blueser,I listen to music of just about every genre except rap and hip hop-I just love virtuosity no matter what the instrument or genre.BTW I kinda missed Ceallach's point too.Never been to a bluegrass jam,they have one in a town about 1 1/2 hrs drive from me during the summer months every Saturday.Ive been meaning to go check it out as a listener as my bluegrass flatpickin' is non-existent.

No point, just making a joke. I was watching south park earlier.

Welcome to the Forum...those CV Strats are really cool--especially for the money! However, we have a rule: You have to show pics of your new gear or it doesn't exist... If you can't figure out how to post a pic, use the search function to find "Nutter's Guide to Posting Pics"

Please excuse Celleach--we have to put a cork on the end of his fork at mealtime...(Dirty Rotten Scoundrels reference)
