My Guitar

It busted. The entire socket for the wire came out. Fortunately, I am a tech loving nut case, so I was able to fix the problem, but my brain did freeze up: I couldn't breathe for about five seconds when I saw the problem. It turns out that Yamaha drills this big huge conical hole into the bottom of their guitars that they then cover with this piece of plastic that has the socket in it. They also put in about six inches of extra wire so that when it does fall apart, you can pull it out without completely dismantling the whole thing. I only had to take two screws out to put it back together. Better than before, when I thought that you had to undo five screws to change a string. Turns out that they out thought me there too: there is a grill in the back of the guitar that you can feed new strings through. I now know far more about my guitar than I ever wanted too, probably because it keeps minorly busting. Over all though, I love it, and I play it most days.

I am thinking of posting a picture of me on my blog, but I don't want it to be just any old picture. I want it to be of me and my guitar, and I want it something really alarming, like my face growing out of the pickguard or something. The only problem is that I have this quasi afro that I am afraid I will loose in the black color of the guitar. Ideas would be appreciated.
