I thought you and Bonnie have been married a lot longer than that!

You should start your own website listing the guitars you have, have had, are considering buying, and have for sale. With all of the hits it would get, you could probably make some money on advertising.

Jim, since you broke a self-imposed no-no, I will too. I usually wouldn't comment favorably on a non-O here, but that burst is so subtle and easy on the eyes. I like it.

Nice guitar. I haven't played one but they always looked interesting.
Next will be a C-10.

Doesn't surprise me that TJ grabbed a SC. IMO they are voiced like a Martin and I know he loves the Martin sound.

Beal I got a real nice sunburst C-10 deep body that might be whispering your name.

You can see the specs on Kim's site.

I think the Borges is my reality check. I am truly done.

With the 1687 I picked up from Al and another little beauty I had custom made (delivery possible for next week with pics and maybe sound clips to follow) I have truly exceed my SWMBO level of tolerance.

She is asking to re-landscape and I have said we don't have the money for it. Yesterday when I got home she was in the studio staring at all the guitars hanging on the wall.

I could be in trouble.....hence the Borges is my last foray into the wilderness!

Update...after sending paypal payment for the guitar and setting up the ship date, the seller backed out just now.... :mad: Maybe it's fate that I don't spend that much on one guitar, I don't know. :rolleyes:

Patch, I know that hurt to say more than it hurt to hear it. Hope everything works out with USPS.

You should give me a call.
