Location: Blue Ridge Mountains | Brad, the main reason is we are still raising our kids and are on a reduced budget this year...but since it is a large investment and not an essential, we talk it over...she trusts my judgment but it's both of our money...sounds like both our systems work just fine... |

Just commenting on a different end of the decision-making spectrum that seems to work with equal success. What is important is that we find what works for each of us in our own circumstances and environments. |

I dropped the guitar off at the luthier today to get the frets dressed. I'll take some pictures when I get it back. |

Location: Texas | Correct, it's not on Times Square, my bad, but that's the store I meant…
The guitars were still there last spring. I asked about them and was told that they were "Mr. Ash's private collection." I then asked why they had that amazing collection of Ovations hanging up there, yet they only had a few lower-end Ovations for sale. That's when they stopped talking to me… |
