Did have. Yes, Just do a little set up and it should suffice. Hint, use lights or extra lights...

Brad, I could use a pro pack (10 sets) for $40.
Maybe another 4-5 members would commit (+ shipping on them) and you could grab them.

Thanks, Stephen. That's an even better deal. I just ordered 20 sets at less than $4/set with free shipping.

Thanks y'all for snapping your fingers in front of my face!

I have a "Box" of 10 EJ16's in my strings drawer... But the box only has three sets in it.

I woulda been upset if I ran-out after the Free Shipping sale was over.

I tell you what, when I was a kid I wanted a guitar so bad I could taste it. However, I didn't have a dime to spend on one, so I would have been grateful for a free guitar from anyone at all.

Compared to my first guitar, the Rogue probably looks like a custom instrument.

Here is something you might look at.

http://www.yourockguitar.com/

It’s not a real guitar. It has six MIDI strings that you strum and a touch sensitive fret board that picks up the position of your fingers and plays the chord you want to play. It has a bunch of voice settings and can be changed to a bunch of different tunings with the push of a button. Plus you can get a little module to stick in it and play Guitar Hero with it.
I got one a few weeks ago. I love music, but I’m not much of a guitar player. This is a lot easier for me to play because it does not make my fingers sore. You are not playing cords on real strings. Just some silicon ridges on the fret board. It is light and small and does not go out of tune. It is also very forgiving with finger position and you don’t get muffled sounding notes.
The down side is that it might teach bad habits with sloppy fingering. But I think it would get a kid started playing and before long he would want to play a real guitar and have some basic skills that would just need some fine tuning.

I thought Adamas already made one of those?

Excuse my instinct to be a smartass... That actually does look like an interesting product.
