Location: Colorado Rocky Mountains | Am I satsfied with my guitars? You bet, flaws and all. Every one of them. I lost a very good friend and the second of my two career mentors last week. Died of a heart attack on his bathroom floor. At 71 years of age, he swam laps every day, kept to a strict diet, and was in excellent physical condition. He was even taking guitar lessons! Life is too short to sweat the small stuff, and the secret is . . . its all small stuff. Play often, but keep things in perspective. Its family and friends that matter. |

Location: South of most, North of few | Prof, sorry for the loss of a friend. I just went through the same thing about 2 months ago with the loss af a very good friend who just fell over and died of a massive heart attack at work. He was due to retire next month and was only 52.
This board is a release for some, and as close to real life as they get for some others. It only takes a small dose of reality though to show you how meaningless something like a guitar is. Like you said, it's all small stuff. Keep the bigger picture in perspective and "live like you were die'n". |

Location: North Idaho | Yes, yes friends. Sorry about some of your recent losses. I like this forum for it's ability to quickly refocus perspective on the important things.
I like my guitars as not a one has ever complained about any of my defects. |
