1st: Joe Strummer signature Telecaster

Awright! I'm back from a great summer vacation, I finally turned fifteen and got a beloved Dunlop classic Crybaby effects pedal. It is great but anyway, this is the first of many postings for this year. Good Luck to you all! This is from the Guitar Center web page.

Designed in cooperation with the Strummer estate, the Joe Strummer electric guitar has a highly distressed "road-worn" treatment that duplicates the originals worn-to-the-wood layers of gray auto primer and flat black spray paint. It also features a "Revolution Rock" engraved neckplate and a limited edition art customization kit that includes Strummer-inspired stencils, stickers and graphics by designer Shepard Fairey.

My take on the guitar:

First things first, I have actually played a guitar that was just like it and I thought it to be a remarkable guitar, it was a truly exquisite guitar, The neck of the instrument has a worn spot on it that is not only looks but it is also feeling, before you ask how I will tell you the neck has a worn spot that is actually worn. This axe feels as if it is a vintage instrument anyone who just picked it up would be shocked at the quality of this instrument. It looks as if it is the real deal, the guitar that Joe Strummer actually used and made his own.

Shane, I loved the warmth and enthusiasm of this paragraph. But we've got to pin down the punctuation issues this year -- better yet, this month. I'm going to give you a clue: your passage really has six sentences, and so should have six periods. Would you like to try to figure them out before I tell you? See you soon.
