Tomorrow, 11/6, I go to pick up my Martin CEO-5 from the luthier, My Tak should be delivered, and My FD1614 custom is due to be delivered fresh from the factory. What to do, what to do... :eek: :D :eek:

Take the day off from work and play guitars (except the Martin, of course) - sore shoulder be damned!

Knowing your reputation, I would say SELL,SELL,SELL....then BUY, BUY, BUY!

Hope that they are all you hoped they would be.

Tell the story behind the CEO. Last I heard it was going back due to shipping damage.

What's the story?

Sorry Andrea, the Mermer is sold and gone. Give me a call when you get in town.

Brad, the seller got a partial payment back from UPS, and I ended up buying it from him at a reduced rate, then took it to the local Martin repair shop to have it fixed. It should be near new when I get it back.

Beggin, I think it's just buy, buy, buy, now.

I'll post some pics when they all get here.

Just another way of showing that we all have our crosses to bear. So many guitars, so little time...

Jim, I can swing down and pick up the FD-14 for you so you don't have to stress out over so many choices.

Besides, I hate the thought of that Martin sticker your probably gonna slap on the front of it!

Trader Jim stopped by the shop today with his newly repaired Martin CEO. The luthier that did the work did a fantastic job. I looked it over, but could not tell where it had been broken. I was really impressed with the brightness of the high end sound. The last Martin that I played really didn't impress me, but that CEO sounded great.
(OK Jim that's the best you get for 10 bucks) :D
