I’m looking at getting a cheap guitar off of Amazon and upgrading it. I’m just apprehensive about it and am wondering if there are problems I have yet to plan for. Anyone tried this recently? If so what problems did you run into? The guitar I’m looking at: https://a.co/d/ea6Q5Qo

I’ve been diving into some new gear ideas lately, and I’m curious where the community stands on smart guitars — instruments with built-in tech, apps, onboard effects, learning tools, etc. Some players love the innovation… others feel like it takes away from the raw, traditional guitar experience. I can see both sides, which is why I want to hear from you. Do smart guitars actually solve real problems for guitarists? Would you ever own one — or do you already? What features would make a smart guitar worth it? Drop your thoughts below. I’m really interested to hear the honest opinions from this group.

Hey everyone! The response to our first guitar giveaway was incredible – seriously, thank you all for the excitement and the love. It was so awesome to see the community come alive that we decided… why not do it again? 🔥 So here we go: we’re giving away another Orangewood Morgan Live – but this time in Spruce! This beauty is a stage-ready acoustic-electric with a warm, articulate tone and a clean, minimal design. Perfect whether you're playing around the campfire or plugging in for a gig. Specs Highlights: - Gig bag included - Solid Spruce top - Onboard electronics - Great action and playability This giveaway is just another way we’re saying thank you for being part of the early days of this community. We’re building something special here, and your support is what makes it all possible. 👀 The winner will be announced on July 1st around 5pm PST. If you are reading this message, you are already entered to win! We will also be sending this lucky winner an Omni Guitars T-Shirt 🦉 Let’s make some noise!– Omni Guitars 🎶

I was wondering what people prefer, individual pedals or one multi-effects pedal??
