Hi folks! I'm Tim, and I'm a university professor living in Seattle, WA. I've been playing bass on and off for the last 17 years. I play mostly as a hobby, for the sake of my own mental health.
I've been wanting to play guitar for a long, long time. About 10 years ago, I bought an MIJ strat with a floating trem because it seemed like a good deal, and a lot of fun. It turned out to be long drain on my time and patience. The posts for the trem ripped out the wood, the screw holes in the trem's baseplate stripped out, and so the guitar has been unplayable without extensive repairs for quite some time.
This year, I decided that I need to learn guitar, no more obstacles, no more nonsense. I've always liked the simplicity of Esquires, so I settled on the even simpler Noventa Tele. It should be here next week. So, now I finally have an excuse to be here on TDPRI!
