Location: Colorado Rocky Mountains | I'm not picky. The Qs are spoken for. I'll be very pleased with whatever is left, preferably something with a cutaway, lighter strings and low action. Beal's guitars remind me that even those sitting on the bench in the NFL, NBA, MLB and NHL remain among the best athletes in the world. |

I thought we talked you out of that on the other thread a month ago. |

Location: south east Michigan | I gather that Bill preffers thick, chunky necks and heaver strings (thus higher action). I'm gonna spend ALOT of time with my fingers on the fretboard. I figure I'll be better off with something that is comfortable and familiar.
But I'm still waffleing. |

Location: Blue Ridge Mountains | Since I'm driving, I plan to bring the 08C, 1688 (if back from the spa), and the Shen-Benz Stereo 60...I can bring others if someone wants to play something in my sig. below...I had planned to bring the 47 but I thought the 08 would give everyone a chance to see, play, and hear one. |

If I bring a guitar, it will be Koala #2. I may show up empty handed and take pot luck. Just depends. |

I have a 1685 that IS easy to play, but the commercials for tha Esteban make everything look easy to play. Am I mistaken or being taken?
BTW Beal...Great Job from a great host! |
