My Yamaha CG-101

I removed my classical Yamaha CG-101 from its case after around 4 years now. It was still in the best of shape with the strings intact and all but totally out of tune. I learnt how to tune the thing and it's in perfect playing condition, now. So, if I turn out to become a lead guitarist instead of a software developer (specifically, kernel architect), attribute it to this day.. ;-).. After all, kernel architects get all the glory among software developers but lead guitarists get glory from software developers and plebeians alike.

Plebeians? I've been reading a bit too much Julius Caesar.. maybe that timetable I set is paying off even before I write my exams.. :-)

That said, I've got another song to recommend.. It's called "Summer Song" and it's a piece of magical guitaring by a magician of a guitarist, himself.. Joe Satriani.. Maybe I can hire him as a mentor.. :-P.. After all, Kirk Hammett (Metallica) and Steve Vai (G3) were among the prodigies he's produced..
