For this week’s prompt, I chose to take it literally, and gathered the items in my life I consider “musical”—the piano my dad, my younger brother, and I play; my guitar, capo, and amp; and music and “sheet-music-editing devices” (pen and white-out). For anyone looking for a good beginner amplifier, I highly suggest the Line 6 Spider V Mark II—its got loads of presets for certain musical artists (and even specific songs!), a great sound, enough volume for playing on a stage, light weight for easy portability…. the list goes on and on. Moreover, its pretty cheap, anywhere from $130 to $550, depending on the speaker setup you want. Personally, I went for the 30-amp model, which’ll lighten your pocket in the neighborhood of $220. My next “upgrades” are either a steel-string guitar or an electric model (I currently have a nylon string acoustic, which is best for beginners).
