<t>I play on an inexpensive Yamaha F325. My wife got it for me last year for my birthday (she was my fiance at the time; just got married this last Saturday). Before last year I played on an old beat up POS with no name that I was told was unplayable (yes it was super hard to play).<br/> <br/> I wou...

Re:Favourite Lyrics: Great lines in a song
Jim Morrison explained the plight of all to many people when he sang:
All our lives we sweat and slave, building for a shallow grave...
