About 3 months later, I found out that in order to buy my computer, my dad sold his 1983 Les Paul Custom guitar on eBay. If you aren't a guitar fan, you probably don't know that Les Paul Customs are basically the best guitars on the market - you really can't get any better. It made me absolutely sick to find this out.
So this year, I've been saving up in hopes of finding the same guitar on eBay. After being outbid a few times (once by only $25), Ben went to the guitar shop to talk to them and found out that for people who actually play their guitars, a new one is better than an old one. So I bought one and gave it to him on Saturday at Lawry's at my graduation dinner. It was definitely the best feeling on the planet. I have never seen my dad truly speechless before. He's done so much for me, it was great to finally be able to give him something back.
