Bought a Takamine

Well, let’s make it 11!!  Been fiending over this one for months and finally got an offer from one of favorite dealers that I can live with/afford. Arrives tomorrow! Can’t sleep, of course 🥱🥱

Went to Guitar Center 3 times to play one but all they had was a GN77 Koa w/cutaway (that I enjoyed playing but way too big for me). 🤬🤬

Walked away from a Martin deal because it was too big. 😢😢

While I was walking out of GC, a guy bolted past me carrying a smaller amp. Shoplifter. Staff went after him but he had a bike and got away  as I was driving down the road, there he was,  riding his bike with his stolen amp. My kid said I should have stopped him and asked him how much.  Lol  Not me

She arrived yesterday. Absolutely gorgeous. I have to say much higher quality/craftsmanship than ALL my other guitars.

@yiwork yea I’m no performer lol. I’ll never post my playing. I really suck. I sound best in a VERY large group where you can’t hear me

@jerseychicadee I find it hard to believe that you aren't a good player. I bet that most of use think that way about our playing.

Bruce Springsteen and the Eagles play this brand of guitar as well

I’m pretty excited over this little beauty but I’m a cheap date (easy to please). I started out on a $300 lower end Fender in 2020 beginning of Covid. I felt like that was A LOT $$$$. Since then , I keep upping the ante ($$$Ive spent) Still playing the same handful of songs from Devin’s lessons. Still can only play 1 by memory. Like I said, I only play for me, won’t play in front of people (except my son who is mostly an unwilling audience)
