Well... it was a happy line...

I broke my first guitar string... The 3rd day of trying to learn it...
Oh well, these were like really old strings... A good excuse to swap them all out... Hope I have time to do that tomorrow...

p/s: Yes, I was learning <it's a happy line> chorus... Think it was a D chord... hahaha...

Swing, are you like high on something? Hahahaha... Well, I do have Japanese speaking friends, friends learning Japanese... And I think my wife has JLPT 4, the lowest grade... (Japanese language proficiency test)

Well... I still can't play the guitar... so... how to form band? How to jam?

Anyway... You guys sounds like my guitar passed away... I'm gonna give it a new life soon!


edit: popping the low E.... that sounds really really difficult... I've been giving my Low E hell... but it's still hanging in there...

Thx to nataliejwong and darrenSan for the help and suggestions.
darrenSan, I went to davis and got Dean Markley strings as you suggested! I asked about swapping out the pickups as well... don't think it makes economic sense, maybe I'll just stick it until I learn how to play and decide to upgrade... Apple red Telecaster's a dream... Or maybe just a Pacifica...

Anyway, my guitar is just a Yamaha EG112C... I got the local Yamaha gigmaker set... but my package came with a 15 watt amp and no dvd and no Pacifica :huhuhu

Er dear... I'm still like in the first week of playing the guitar... I'm having enough problems playing only the chorus of It's a Happy Line.... I always screws up @ the D chord... Goes Slow-mo or press the wrong frets or something...

I thought you were practicing Rolling Star? it's happy line is a great song too. Yeah, it's a bit tough to switch from the G to D to Em. Take your time. :)

Haha.. Sad right... Cheapo Guitar mah, then wasn't set up properly in the beginning. The strings were like super old when i received the guitar, so i was expecting them to break.

now, i saw that the adjustable part of the bridge for the b string , dunno what it's called, not resting properly to the body... One corner lifted up... Maybe i'll go back to Davis guitar... Don't feel like ripping the strings out myself...

went to check out a yamaha pacifica yesterday... Less than s$500, depending on material... I should have gotten a Pacifica in the beginning... And havng starting with an electric, acoustic really feels weird... And Nylons sounds wierd to me as well... Don't even know how to strum... Hahaha...

LOL.

Flare, I think one of your 'screws' need to be readjusted. It looks like the 'right' side is a bit higher than the left side. It doesn't look like a major problem...

hahah actually it,s because the left side is too low... the right screws are like free now, rattling freely... All the tension of the strings are on the left screw... But I'm having no luck adjusting it with the strings on... so gonna rip the strings out again...

It's a starter's guitar! Seriously! I think, The guitar alone don't even cost US$100...

Anyway, the body's quite solid, but the rest are questionable... And i think it sounds quite bad... Bad pickups..

I want its bigger brother the pacifica... Was so tempted to buy one a few minutes ago...

Anyway, I can't even play yet...

Well... My guitar's not fixed yet.... but well, it's still 'playable'... Maybe I'll bring it to the shop tomorrow after work, gonna lug my baby to camp...

Anyway, I got a little bored with my callous building exercise (Happy Line chorus) and recorded it... Well, I'm still in the second week of learning the guitar, and actually, that's all I can play at the moment... gonna start practicing the rest of the song...

So, should I change the pickups? Maybe I should just save the money and use it to buy an acoustic...

edit: Yes, I played it on an electric, recorded it via electirc->amp->computer... just to convince you guys, I appended a faster version of it on the humbuck pickups... Yeah, an electirc without any wAaWaa don't sound very interesting...
