Geez. You've been buying guitars like crazy!

Want to send some of that cash my way?

C@sh should never be spoken about... as it's none of your business !!!

It was a joke.

I didn't ask him how he was getting the money and I don't really care. I was just saying that I am jealous because I haven't been getting new guitars.

o.k. dude... sometimes when I make a big purchase I don't wanna be reminded about where the money is coming from or feel I need to question that, that's all I was getting at. More importantly, why do you remind me of a portugeeza Stewart ?

lal

i've asked WTR several times if he's a drug dealer. somehow, he's not, and his heart is just set on buying sweet guitars.

never hurts to ask.

Yes but

if 3x6=12

then

6-3=4

It's the new math!

Some of us want to try them out for a while. It's not always a good idea, but it can be the only way to really know.

There's a serial pun in there somewhere.

Oh it's a shame you got rid of the LP classic. Sweet guitar, that is.

Yes you are right. It's a beauty. I love the color: Cinnamon Burst. I had to choose between keeping that one or my Goldtop. It's a tough choice. The Classic is for sale at my friends shop if you want it. $1399.

That's the only new guitar I have eyes for at the moment :(

yeah, WTR has a constantly rotating collection. people sometimes dog on him about it but I think it's cool. there's no right or wrong way to get enjoyment out of a guitar. and you can't say that he's hoarding them.

That is a nice guitar! I've wanted one of those really bad for a while, ever since I started listening to Against Me! And oddly enough Tom actually bought his white Rickenbacker at the Raleigh Guitar Center, It had hung on the wall there for years and I had played it a couple times, it's really weird that it wound up in the hands of the guy that made me want that guitar!

SKC Willie · Post by **SKC Willie** » Thu Apr 01, 2010 4:58 am

I didn't realize so many were rotating. I am the same way. I get guitar a.d.d. I get bored with guitars thinking there is always something . . . more "me" out there.

Really, I just like ngd days and can't afford to buy so, I end up trading.

Still, that is a sweet guitar that I would love to own!

I wish I could just rotate like that....I used to....somewhere along the line I started getting sentimental.

I really wish I was more sentimental. I want to hold on to guitars for awhile and every guitar is the same old story, "I'm going to keep this one; it is going to be my go to guitar."

I have yet to keep a guitar since I really started gigging for more than six months.

This is the only guitar I have had for along time. My son gave it to me for my birthday 5 years ago. It's just a cheap acoustic but that is the one guitar that I would never sell.
