I love guitars. Like loveeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee them. They're just like girls:
1 - They both have curves
2 - They have necks
3 - They both use G-Strings *ahem*
4 - They're both fun to touch/play/strum/pluck (lets not let our imaginations run wild lol)
5 - They come in white, black, yellow, and many other colors........brown......
LOL. Anyways, I digressed. Back to the point, I recently purchased an Epiphone electric guitar, since I got kinda bored with the old guitar I had. Behold, the Ultra-II:
It sounds awesome! Great guitar for almost any kind of music genre except heavy stuff (I play mainly alternative rock and jazz). Think the retail price is going for about $650. I've seen cheaper ones on Ebay too, but assuming you buy it directly off a Epiphone supplier, it'll probably be around the $600-$700 range. Definitely cheaper than getting a Gibson, and in terms of sound, you probably can achieve something similar to a Gibson with a decent effects pedal. Best part is it comes with an acoustic pickup (Nanomag), which is capable of simulating acoustic tones. Of course they do not come close to the actual acoustic guitar but heck, the tone capabilities are pretty much infinite considering the tones can be blended (electric pickups together with the acoustic pickup).
Overall I'm really satisfied with this baby. I'd give it her an 8/10 for its value for money. Sounds great, has an excellent sustain, large range of tones, lightweight (since its chambered, its weight is reduced significantly), and the best part - It's beautiful! Highly recommended.

Wassup everyone! I'm back! Yes yes I know its been a long time since the site has been active and I just want to assure and reassure everyone that I'm not dead. Really. lol. I wanted to upload the site much sooner but my server got hacked by some retard so yeah, I got lazy. I was also too busy with uni and other personal stuff that I just didn't want to burden myself with additional website stuff. But now that I've graduated, it feels like a big load has just been lifted off my back. Yippeee!
As many would've noticed, the design on the site has toned down a lot from a bandwidth-sucking-browser-crashing layout to this.... green piece of..... *clears throat*. Lets not get there lol. Reason to that, The old site was sucking too much bandwidth and taking too long for people with slower internet connections. Also I wanted to have more of a CSS-driven blog-ish layout for once. So yeah, here you have it. Functionality over form. lol
"So what can I expect to see here at Kenetix.net now?".... Well, I plan to run the site on a more personal level now, making it more of a 'discovery' sorta site. I love exploring new stuff and I feel that this site is the best place to share about them. I've always wanted to have a blog as well, since that's what every idiot on the planet is doing now wth. So yeah, sounds like a plan huh? LOL. Since I've more time on my hands now I do look forward to going back to designing, coding, and trying out newer stuff like ASP, Photography, etc. etc. etc. (the list goes on and on and on).
As you're reading this, I'm still in the process of restoring the stuff I used to have around here. It's a long and boring process, so bare with me alright. Till then, have a great day, and enjoy cruising around the new site.

Google researchers say they have a software technology intended to do for digital images on the Web what the company’s original PageRank software did for searches of Web pages.
