My New Years resolution was to buy my dream guitar, and I have just done it on the first day of 2011.

I don't think you quite understand the self-betterment concept of the tradition.

Resolved: To buy a White Falcon.

I agree along the lines of what Doog said that it's an unorthodox approach to a "challenge", but I'm excited to hear you're diving in. We all want to see/hear how 2011 will be improved by the completion of your resolution!

I was torn between quitting smoking and this, and so this makes me feel happier and not grumpy, so I am healthier of mind because of it ;)

I got an unexpected Xmas bonus from work, and so I thought I might never have the chance to buy one again, so I took the plunge :)

I'll deffo get pics and demo once I have it on weds. Wednesdays going to be a good day, new guitar and new tattoo :)

Well, at least it wasn't a small dream!

That's an awesome guitar. I entered two separate giveaways this past month trying to win one. Because damnit, I want a guitar that costs 3x as much as my car!

Very Nice Indeed. I have promised myself that one day I will own a 6118 Anniversary, maybe I should make it my resolution for next year! ;)
