And she's gone

[Aahzz]

Daisy sold on Thursday. Bittersweet day, but I'm so focused on acoustic that I'm good with it.

Went to Willcutt this morning and this followed me home, making me really happy:

Nice Aahzz!

 

[Alnus Rubra]

Congratulations, never say never.

 

[bodia]

Sweet as sweet

Willcutt's Is A Trip. Nothing Like I Imagined It Would Be From Online. They Always Have Some Nice Pieces. Congrats On Yours!

 

[Moondog Wily]

Nice! Congrats on the new score Mr. Aahzz!! Best wishes on to you and your acoustic journey!!!

Good for you, dude! You have to do what rocks your soul.

 

[Sybo]

Yes Sir!! “love the one you’re with” that new Guild is a Fox!! Congratulations!

 

[Prina]

Congrats! Sometimes it just feels so good keeping a balance: one in and one out. My week was the same: returned one and got another though it wasn't quite an even trade with an SE out and a Core in.

Congrats! Great score!

This wasn't an even swap - 2 Eastman GAs and the Vela for one Oxnard CA made Guild. I'm still thrilled with where I landed .

My friend has played a 70’s Guild dreadnought for years. Great guitar!

Nor here either, without a big contribution to the kitty, it would have taken 3 more SEs.

Looks great! I've always liked Guilds.

I figure you'll acquire another Vela soon enough, and have a nice set of axes.

Thanks! It's certainly possible, I know me

I've had a thing for Guilds for a long time. I had a 1980 D-40 from the Waverly factory, and have been kicking myself for getting rid of it. I wasn't as thrilled with the stuff they were turning out when Fender owned them, but the new Oxnard-built guitars are great. Hopefully Yamaha won't mess with them now that they have ownership.

My first acoustic was a Guild Dreadnaught, around 1969-70. I had it for several years, thought it was a fantastic guitar, and liked the Guild sound. Still do!

A friend had a Martin and I decided I had to have one similar to it, so I traded in the Guild. It was different, of course, but not better.

Just changed the strings to my preferred D'Addario EJ16s, and now I love her even more. Haven't found her name yet, though.

 

[Aahzz]

I spoke too soon, her name is Bonnie.
