Me, ruminating and flip-flopping again...debating going strictly acoustic

good luck with that!

Yep, that’s exactly what I was seeing!

Does it matter? All I’d be doing is cosplaying in front of the mirror while wearing a Stussy bucket hat.

Aaaaggggghhhhh my eyes, my eyes, those little thorny crowns

It slices!
It dices!

What happens once the frets wear down, new fretboard?

Join a zydeco band as a washboard player. They should have enough left for that.

Thank you. That's my Taylor 710 Brazilian on most of those. It's a dreadnaught. I hurt my shoulder in a fall on ice a couple of years ago and I can't get my right arm around it. Sold it the other day. Someone else can love it now. Can't play those really big guitars anymore.

I'm fine though. I have some beautiful Oregon made Breedloves. They're amazing sounding guitars.

I need one of those shirts.

Would go nicely with my puffy suit.

Nice! I like all those artists. Those Eastmans are nice! Chinese violin makers originally...or so I've heard. I played Blueridge guitars and Taylors for a long time. Now I'm a Breedlove guy.

If that's what you recorded with in the post I liked, it's a good choice for your playing style!

No, that's my Taylor 710 Brazilian. It's 27 years old. A '96. Great sounding guitar but a dreadnaught is a little too big for me.

Really sounds nice, whatever it is.

The important thing is your playing, which is first-class.

Back to my original point - I've pretty much decided to keep the Vela, but sell the amp and pedals. The amp is easily replaceable if I should develop remorse, as are the pedals. Daisy, not so much - all Velas are magical, but she's really magical.

I may keep my Pod Go, but I also have Helix Elements, so can always plug into my laptop if I'm only ever playing electric at home, or using it for recording.

You may not sell your Vela…………..if you do, that night I will whisper the magic incantations and you will be visited with the ancient Egyptian curse of the syphlitic flea. The only known cure is to buy 5 PRS!

Good choice. You would have regretted having sold her.

That madness has passed, the Vela is staying.

whoa whoa you had a bond? what happened?

New House and 2008 happened. Although now, knowing how 2008 played out, I should have sold nothing and walked away from the house.

In case you were wondering, it was amazing! Hurt my heart to sell it, and I know specifically who has it and where and still talk to them.

Thank you for asking!
