I'm just starting vacation, and have to admit to being to dang busy to post much lately. In looking at this section I have decided its high time we start a new thread. Having said that, I don't have much to say.
Okay...how about this?
Is anyone out there thinking about a new acoustic guitar? I just picked myself up a new Larrivee, but what the hell...a guy can still dream. I have to admit to still having a certain fondness for the Blueridge BG series...
I have it in my head that I NEED a guitar with sunburst. What about the rest of you? Any wants, needs or desires (guitar related) unfulfilled? Anyone else pining away for something new?
I've been thinking long and hard about a Yairi. I can't decide on which one. I also need an acoustic electric so have been thinking on that. Any suggestions? I'm looking for something decent, but it will be a gigging guitar so it will take some lumps and bumps.
Lolly, Change this thread's title to, "Who isn't dreaming of a new guitar."
For I too have just taken delivery of yet another new instrument. (see #41 of the Let's see your acoustics thread)
But I was looking and chasing down leads from the time I first talked about having this new guitar built.
Heck, I bought a Larrivee BT-60 baritone on new years eve just after I confirmed with Andrew about the building of Fast Eddie.
Well I had my reasons. I wanted to try the longer scale length and heavy strings. You see I had first ordered Fast Eddie as a baritone. Then thought maybe I should play one for awhile to make sure it was what I wanted. Well it is what I wanted but Fast Eddie morphed into a slightly longer scaled large body. Designed for alternate tunings but not as low as B-B.
I have it in my head that I need a Laskin. I love the mans work and artistry. I kick myself I didn't buy one when I had the chance to years ago.
As if that's not enough I now know that next I need to get a harp guitar. Never mind the fact that I can't play well enough to justify the 1/2 dozen guitars sitting around here at present. Nope, my mind is made up. Yepper, it's a harp guitar for me next!
Ah... er, unless I find an affordable Laskin. Or some other interesting stringed contraption jumps up and grabs my attention.
