Its been 3.5 years since my black Santa Cruz guitar served me. Learned many songs with her. I still remembered that when I was form 4, I just started to learn guitar (using my roommates), and wanted to buy a guitar myself. For me, that time, I consider RM100 very expensive, so I just wanted to get the cheapo Kapok. Then my mom asked my father if he know anywhere that sells cheap guitar. Then suddenly, one day, when I went home during weekend, surprisingly I saw this “black beauty” lying comfortably on the sofa, really surprised! Picked it up and played, sounds very nice! Never want to play Kapok anymore, lol. Before that my mom afraid that I 三分钟热度 in guitar, but after she watched I played, I felt that she quite happy and relieved though XD

It has followed me to hostel, to school, and even now in Singapore. My skills have improved a lot with it. But now I feel that its time for me to upgrade as I am now a more intermediate player now, and thirst for better tone for practice, performance and self-enjoyment. Never thanked my dad properly for buying the guitar for me, haha, thank you, if you saw this post ^^

And of course, thanks mom

Looking for Custom Acoustic full solid at SGD400+-, and Taylor Big Baby at SGD500 (but I am not really fond of small guitar), or even Ayers? SGD1000++ (dreaming).

Set a goal for myself; learn more songs (target: 20 more fingerstyle songs). So far my progress (2/20). Polished some of the old songs I learned before too. Then I can leave my Santa Cruz at Keningau, so I don’t need to bring a guitar back and forth. Or maybe I should keep it around for another tuning? The room is getting smaller lol.
