An occasionally interesting article, however - It is a magazine. They do sell advertising. GP isn't too bad. GW is awful. Quote
jazzbo Posted March 9, 2008 Report Posted March 9, 2008 Well, I paid off the house this month and to celebrate I bought something I always wanted: a Hummingbird. I didn't buy a Gibson, I didn't want to spend over two grand. . . I bought an Epiphone. Not the same thing I know, but nice. . . I got the ebony finish one. Then a friend who just had his first child (at age 50!) asked me a great question: Did I want to buy his full size bass violin? Guess what my answer was? Got it today, it's set up with steel strings and a pickup, at least for now. So now I have this to add to my stringed collection (Hummingbird, Ovation "Breadwinner" solid body guitar, and "Wishbass" fretless bass built by Steve Wishnevsky.) Quote
7/4 Posted March 9, 2008 Author Report Posted March 9, 2008 What did you pay? I'd love to have one, but don't have the room and I'd really rather have a cello. I don't have room for that either. Quote
jazzbo Posted March 9, 2008 Report Posted March 9, 2008 (edited) I paid a grand. Bass, gig bag, stand. I've got the room. . . three bedroom house to myself now. Still don't know where to set up my old Sonor drum kit though, hasn't been set up in eleven years! Edited March 9, 2008 by jazzbo Quote
jazzbo Posted March 9, 2008 Report Posted March 9, 2008 More like this B! I went with the ebony one because the cherry sunburst. . . is gaudier than the Gibsons. I had a friend throughout the seventies that had an old cherry sunburst Gibson. . . beautiful sounding guitar. . . I had a Martin D18 at the same time and wished I had his instead! Quote
7/4 Posted March 9, 2008 Author Report Posted March 9, 2008 (edited) $300 at Musicians Friend...that's one in-ek-spensive guitar! Edited March 10, 2008 by 7/4 Quote
7/4 Posted March 14, 2008 Author Report Posted March 14, 2008 (edited) DOES look like a cool Tele. Nice! I have a pair of Teles, but I'd like one with a 9.5" radius fingerboard. There's already the Nashville Tele with three pups, this one costs a little less. . Edited March 14, 2008 by 7/4 Quote
Shawn Posted March 14, 2008 Report Posted March 14, 2008 If I win the lottery, I'm buying one of these.... Quote

Joe G Posted March 17, 2008 Report Posted March 17, 2008 You'd never get through the airport with that thing. Quote

7/4 Posted March 17, 2008 Author Report Posted March 17, 2008 Maybe I need one of these...I know Joe does... Quote
