Guitars and Amps

Not sure which model it is. Nothing fancy or expensive, I think it was under $600 so it's surely not top of the line Taylor. But I am not that great of a player so I don't need a two grand guitar just yet. And since I'm too old to be a rock star I think the $600 model will hold me for a few years.

When it comes to Taylor I don't think it matters. They are so well made and all sound great. I think you pay for the aesthetics more than anything with those. Hell I am lucky enough to own a Martin HD 28 but I find myself grabbing my $300 baby Taylor more than anything else. BTW I'm not much of a player myself. I just mostly piddle around entertaining myself.

Cheers,

Mike

I have a banjo too! LOL!

The Fender Forum is great. I've also learned a good bit about my Stratocaster. It was my first electric and my Dad gave it to me sometime around '81 (I think...) At that time I put it through "heavy metal hell" by adding a humbucker pick up and Kahler whammy. Talking tothe guys on that forum, I'm going to try and bring it back original and do some other restoration work on it.

very nice. as i was driving back to VA yesterday i was listening to some Allison Krauss + Union Station and i was thinking a bit more seriously about it. i am pretty sure that is the natural reaction after listening to them.

haha.. cool. I loved hearing that dude play. I had a few of his original JEM series guitars back when they came out. I should have never sold the green one or the floral pattern one. I miss them.

Those are sweet. I currently have a bad case of GAS for the new Fender Jaguar Bass.
