First of all, you need a price range. I recently bought a guitar and my range was $400.00 - $650.00.Anyways, if this is your first guitar a good price range would be $100.00 to $300.00. Probably the best beginners guitar would be a Fender Squire Stratocaster or Telecaster. They range from $75.00 to $450.00 USD. My first guitar was a red Fender Squire Strat. Nowadays Squires usually come witha whammy bar/ tremelo. Some things to look for in a guitar is the shape, the wood, the pickups and so on.ALSO, if buying a Gibson or an epiphone MAKE SURE you know if it's a bolt-on neck or not. For example,A Epiphone SG Standard is around $400.00 - $625.00 USD. A Epiphone SG Special (Bolt-On Neck) Is From $225.00 - 350.00 USD.If you're in a $500.00-$1000.00 dollar price range, look for Seymour Duncan or EMG pickups.
Now, if you want, when you're starting out, they have Squires like one my friend has from $275.00 - $400.00 USD if you have a bigger budget. They cost so much because they usually have a sunburst finish, which costs more. Also, they would have Duncan Designed single-coil pickups. which are a cheaper version of Seymour Duncan pickups.I'm going to be talking about some well-known guitar brands here and they're prices.
[ESP Guitars: Anywhere from $150.00 to about $5000.00 USD. Depending, the guitar they have some nice guitars.If you need a price, check on their website or on google.
Epiphone guitars: Anywhere from $200.00 to around $2000.00 USD. Almost all of these guitar kick assand I recommmend them. But trust me, don't go cheapo and get a bolt-on neck
.PRS (Paul Reed Smith.): I don't have much experience with these, but from what I know and have heard they're pretty decent guitar. They are a bitpricey but I think they range form $300.00 to about $5000.00 USD.
Parker: Well, I recently bought a parker P-42 second hand for $450.00 CAD with a amazing hard caseand I am AMAZED. Most of they're guitars go for over $600.00 and I think mine is worth around $1000.00 USD.I really recommend these. The nitefly is amazing.
Vintage: These, again I don't know much about. As far as I know, they go for $225.00 to probably $1500.00 USD.If you buy one, get some info on them. They look good and play okay.
Gibson: Everybody's gotta love a Gibson. If you can afford one, buy one. The awesome thing about Gibsons isa Gibson Meledoy Make is only around $600.00 to $1200.00 USD. Besides that guitar, they go for about $900.00 to $10,00.00 USD.One thing about Gibson. Recently, they came with the Darkfire. This guitar is AMAZING I've never tried it but, it tunes itself, has an amazing finish and goes for about $3000.00 to $4500.00.

Guide to perfect hair.
Your hair is an indisputably important factor in looking nice, which is why I am writing this guide. I like to make sure my hair is kept in good condition by adhering to my strict, personal routine and regulations. Men are generally quite happy to follow of a policy of ''not giving a crap'' about things like the quality of their hair, but take it from me, those who are attracted to you pick up on these things.There is quite a lot of writing to go through in this thread, but sacrifices must be made if you wish to truly achieve perfection of hair.
Shampoo & Conditioner: The Basics.For my first piece of fundamental advice, it is regarding use of basic shampoo and conditioner, and how frequently they should be used.If you're attempting to achieve perfect hair, you must cast away the cheap and nasty shampoo & conditioner that you have previously been using, and should use products which are pertinent to your actual hair type and colour.For example, my hair is brunette, and consequently, I use John Frieda's ''Brilliant Brunette'' shampoo and conditioner, and never deviate from doing so. An example product is shown below so you can see what they're like for when you go shopping:
These products are not only pivotal because I'm a spoiled brat. Interestingly, they serve a purpose in the quest to hair perfection, too. Using products which are specific to your hair color means that you're using a product that has been especially designed for your type of hair, and so it will be more effective than any other non-specific type of product. For me personally, I have yielded wondrous results from using this type of shampoo and conditioner. Specifically, my hair is endlessly soft and effulgently shiny, and I actually, physically am illuminated when I go in the sun, as my hair is so radiant.These two items are a must in your bid for perfect hair, but it is equally important to know how (and how often) to use them.
EVERY day, apply the shampoo. Try to leave it on your hair for at least five minutes, washing your face and whatnot whilst waiting.
After that, wash it out thoroughly.
Apply the conditioner every TWO days, leaving it in for up to a minute or two, before rinsing it out, again thoroughly.Whilst you may have been brought up being told a different set of ''rules'' for shampooing/conditioning your hair, it is important that you follow my aforementioned guidelines if you want to achieve radiantly enhanced hair.
Straightening: The dos and don'ts.I don't know how many American males straighten their hair, but here it is becoming increasingly popular, and for those virile fools who refuse to straighten their hair at any cost due to utter fear that they are acting effeminately are deluded and lacking in mental vitality. Ignore their nonsense.For hair straightening, there really is nothing more advisable than GHD straighteners.
These straighteners are of extremely good quality, straighten hair well, and are not quite as malignant in comparison to other straighteners. If you don't know how to straighten your hair, ask your mother (or a sister) to do it the first time, until you get ''the hang of it''. Following somewhat crude written instructions, alternatively, you should simply close the irons and pull your hair through them in order to straighten it.
The dos:
Do straighten your hair if curliness/waviness isn't part of a style you're ''going for''.
Use heat protection spray, which prevents your hair from being damaged by the heat.
Do not persistently attack your hair with the straighteners. There is no need to assault your hair - once you have straightened one part, do not redo it.
The don'ts:
Avoid using cheap straighteners at all costs. It's better not to straighten it at all.
Do NOT straighten it every day. Straightening every 2 days is sufficient.
Straightening your hair isn't necessarily fundamental to hair perfection, especially in certain styles, but for some people it improves the look of their hair very much.
Other Products and Additional Information.
Most people choose to adopt a certain way of 'controlling' their hair. I, personally, use this:From personal experience, I have found that it makes your hair extremely shiny whilst holding it relatively well at the same time. Additionally, it smells very nice, and if you can get your claws on this product specifically, I highly recommend it. Generally speaking, most of the wax holding products are very good, although this is my preferred choice.
Final dos:
Wear a styling product! Not only do they allow you to 'craft' your hair to your liking, they also smell nice and make your hair shiny.
If you're female, let your hair down - literally! For girls, hair looks much more dazzling if it's down, as far as I'm concerned.
Wear leave-in conditioner for extra juiciness and shine.
Final don'ts:
Never wear bandannas or hats. Not only are they vile, they are hiding the stunning effulgence of your soon-to-be perfect hair!
At ALL costs, avoid dying your hair. I speak from personal experience. I have dyed my hair three times, and it has KILLED my hair. It took intensive hair rejuvenation to rescue it. Do NOT dye it.
NEVER use holding SPRAY. This stuff is vile and it makes your hair hard and crispy. It looks awfully cheap and isn't pleasant. Steer clear.

Guide for a stress free life.
If you knew me, I'd be the least stressed person you know. I've most likely been through more in 20 years than you will in 50. I've had sucky grades, my Mom died about two years ago, and do I cry in the corner? No.The first step to leading a life without stress is to do the cliche "Find out what's bothering you and accept it". I was there when my Mom died. I threw up because my body, let alone my mind couldn't handle it. Did I find the nearest skyscraper and jump off it? No. Death is part of life and needs to be excepted.In school I've always gotten poor teachers that really could care less what grades they gave me. I'd work hard and it would all blow in my face because I chose to challenge what they were saying instead of basing my knowledge by the book.Everyone has stress and there are right ways and wrong ways of dealing with it if you wish to become stress free.Ever feel like pmsing just because you had a bad day? Feel like yelling into a pillow? Why? How does it make you feel better? You're not throwing up your feelings by yelling or punching a pillow. You're covering it up temporarily with nothingness. The idea behind living a life without stress or even little stress is to rid yourself of stress, not cover it up.Steaming and venting are two different things. If you steam, you're chilling out and slowly getting rid of your stress.In order to steam, you need something purely happy. I happy to listen to chill reggae or ska music to lighten my mood and get rid of stress.Bob Marley is good but some times promotes rage so be picky about what you're listening to.It's easy enough to tell someone "just ignore it" when you don't have the problem but in reality that's not what you want to do. Ignoring it promotes and advanced form of stress. It just keeps adding on and on and on.What you want to do is wonder why you care about whatever's bothering you OR how to make your problem better.If the stress that's bothering you is unfinished school work due tomorrow, get it done and your stress will disappear.Magic? No. It's just reality. If you take care of your stress and manage it successfully, you'll be stress free. Seems easy? It is. If you really find yourself needing to release some stress at first, take something squishy and squeeze it for a while. Don't tense up when you squish it, just chill out and squish it.
Review of multiple sites.
Well hello,
And welcome to the first post of my blog,
Today we will be reviewing some of the sites I know of.
The first site we will be discussing is www.treasuretrooper.com, I was with this site for about 4 months and still to this day, They have not paid me a single cent. I DO NOT, Reccomend using this site for anything.
The second site we will be discussing is www.cashcrate.com. It's the same deal with the above, They just don't pay, As a matter of fact none of the sites I'm going to talk about pay, I'm just writing about them to inform you of these scams.
Third site, www.awsurveys.com.
As a matter of fact, I've only seen maybe 2 or 3 legit GPT's in my day, And even then the revenue you'll gain is very low. Something is better than nothing I guess. In all reality there are really no "Get rich fast" methods on the internet.
I wish you all luck.
