Visit to Woh Fatt..

i borrowed Johan's Epiphone for quite some time la, baru2 nie dier nak balik. Since dah lame kt rumah tue, byk gak kerosakan fizikal la-silly me betul la. Volume knob dah xberfungsi, wiring probem..pastue guitar letak kt gig beg, pernah terjatuh skali, then toggle switch tue patah sehh. I've sent da guitar for repair, kt Guitar Gallery Ampang. Diorang dah repair semua except for the Toggle switch. Diorang xdapat carik spare parts. For Epiphone & Gibson Guitars, toggle switch nie pick-up selector dier la. So gua pegi la carik toggle switch dgn Mr.FBI kt KL. And sesape yg main guitar, sure tau tempat yg paling elok nak carik guitar spare parts adalah di - WOH FATT Music Store !!!

TAPI !!! Yg paling hampeh pasal dis Woh Fatt Guitar Store is its location. It's located in Jalan Silang-near KOtaraya. Yep bus stand yg byk giler bas berenti, da nearest parking pun kt Mydin Jalan Silang tue. Dekat dgn PUduraya, mmg jamm la. Kedai dier pun xbesar mane pun. Sempit giler. Sekali pandang, u would not expect the store actually sells branded guitars like GIBSON. Bukan guitar jer, harmonica, drums, violins..macam2 jenis instrument la, Err trombone gua xnampak la hehe.

As for myself, dis guitar store have memories la. I first bought my electric guitar here-mase tu umur baru 18-19tahun kot. Da Hofma guitar, i bought it for RM450. I remembered going to da store with Abah. I only had enough money to buy da guitar, ingatkan nak cucuk guitar tue kt speaker komputer jer la. LUckily, abah topped up another RM500 for the amplifier, maybe kesian tgk anak dier main electric guitar, dgn xder amp. So dapat la a 15Watt PEavey Amplifier, with Overdrive button kt Amp tue. I also bought my first and only GUitar Effect processor there, my ZOOM707. A Processor dat can produce 60 sounds, with a expression pedal for Wah-Wah and Volume. I used my first PTPTN loan to buy that gadget hahaha. Habis RM650 beb. Abah also followed me mase beli gadget tue. He was quite surprised on da price tag la, pesal la mahal sangat benda kecik nie hehehe. But after i tested and showed him how da effect functions, baru la dier paham sket2.

Apart from carik toggle switch, Aleem pesan beli guitar kapok satu. Dekat Woh Fatt la nak carik, brand "Kapok" which costs u less than RM100. Pegi la tempat lain, semua guitar kapok pun mahal2. Kt Bentley Music, da cheapest guitar akustik RM180 - giler mahal. Aleem nak guitar kapok and dier suruh gua ajar la. Bleh jer.

Oh yer, tgk gak guitar2 kt situ. Da cheapest GIbson LEs Paul, made in USA is RM8k. Pergh, mahal nyer..ader satu LEs Paul nie, RM11k. Mmg lawa. Tapi xmampu la isk isk =( Epiphone guitars not bad aa, ader satu Epiphone LEs Paul nie, harga around RM2.3k, design lawa. Tengok la kalau ader rezeki ingat nak angkat la guitar tue, tapi dalam rancangan tahun 2008 la kot hehe =P. So Sabtu - dapat carik Toggle switch, next week kena pegi Guitar Gallery Ampang suruh diorang pasangkan.

Later dat night, had a family dinner kt Tanjung Harapan, Port Klang. Mama nak belanje. Kt situ ader medan ikan bakar. Ramai betul org, kater cuti sekolah, awal bulan plak tue. Diorang pun bawak family. Macam kt tempat2 lain la, kena pegi pilih semua seafood dulu, then diorang timbang, and cakap la nak masak macam mane. Sedap la, tapi still xleh challenge kt Umbai la beb.

Pastue, tido umah aleem, sebelom tue berjalan2 kt KL. Sbb KL dah xder aper, selalu sangat pusing2. Kitorang pegi Putrajaya, lepak kt Jambatan Wawasan. Uish lame betul xlepak kt sni. Selalu mase belajar, kalau sangap2 selalu gak datang sni. As usual, ramai org bertenet hehe. Ader yg show off radio keta masing2-pasang kuat2. Ader yg nak tengok view Putrajaya. Ader gak yg mini-picnic kt jambatan tue. Macam2 la. Tapi betul gak, sesape yg belajar kt area2 Serdang, Bangi, Cyberjaya..for sure penah lepak kt jambatan nie.

Erm ader 3 minggu jer lagi, sebelom gua tutup buku utk tahun 2006. Sweet and Bitter memories, sume nyer ader. Yg manis dijadikan kenangan & panduan..Yg pahit dijadikan pengajaran, yg penting - Jgn diulang skali lagi hehe =)
