I called him. I told him the guitar looked a bit beat up.

He laughed and said the guitar was 'dragged around a bit' (paraphrasing there). I was just curious. I made him an offer and THEN saw the boo boo ... I'm going to pass; You guys could fix that. I couldn't. If I buy it, anyone wanna offer to foster and fix her for me?

Then I'd have twins ... sort of ...

;P

Geneo, I live about two hours (south east) of Philadelphia in New Jersey. My youngest goes to Drexel. Congrats on your new 1778-KCG!

Do you live on a houseboat? ;)

My daughter is looking at colleges now (she's going into her senior year). Drexel is up on the list, as well as St. Joe's and a few others. How does your son/daughter like Drexel?

Please! This is supposed to be a happy occasion. Let's not bicker and argue over who killed who.

Um, OK, but don't hold your breath. ;)
That's "Paddy", and she would definitely be one of the last to go ...

If you get this guitar, you'll find that it's one feces-kicking instrument......

OK; so beat me up.

She is MINE.

Randy said that she will have 'good mojo' and I think he's right. The man is/was a professional musician for many years, but he said he had health problems due to the fact that he weighed something like 600 or 700 pounds and was waiting for heart surgery. Just as I was thinking to myself, "how can he HOLD the guitar, especially an Adamas", he said, "I can't really hold her anyway." I thanked him and wished him well.

MM said he'd have a look at her for me and even try to fix her, so he will be her foster daddy for a while. I will have the serial number soon. I hope he plays her for a few weeks and gives her some MORE 'good mojo'!

I think the seller said he bought it in 1984.

I need to open a store now. The kids think I've gone bonkers ... but for the first time in my life I'm doing "MY THING", although photography is my first love ...

I took delivery on some real beauties this week... photos coming ... don't hate me because they are beautiful, haha.

;)

By the way, I got the 1861-5 today. She is in mint condition and I cannot believe the sound coming from this guitar!

Boy Randy, always ready to help out....


Yeah! It's his and Mishka's fault!

Anybody for dinner? We're having macaroni and cheese, 'cause I can't afford meat (or vegetables, for that matter) now.

Willa, not only are you "in the club", but you are fast becoming one of the most interesting members! Congrats on all the new ones, and Mike, have fun being foster dad and doctor. (By the way Willa, I'd be happy to foster any of them for you too. :D )

Willa, 2 hours southeast out of Philly puts you in some nice territory. Wish I had known before our vacation, we would have had you over for dinner or mini-golf.
