Maybe "Underachiever" is an appropriate description for me!

Just cedar or spruce. Right now I'm looking at Seagul Dreads and Folks. All short scale, all Canadian, and all plain but beautiful and sound lovely.

Thanks all. Unfortunately I am traveling and away from my family but I received several nice text messages. I was able to call my father a happy day.

I do. I turn the on/off switch to "off", lay it on the shelf and continue playing/practicing.

Normtheguitar, I understand "middling" and can occasionally use it in a sentence. See? It is a welcome adjective here.

I'm just trying to put my playing level into perspective. A few years ago golf would intimidate me. You see, I never play unless asked so I end up playing about once a year. And I'm usually frightened I will be the worst player. That has never been the case. In fact, last June I WON a golf tournament not having even picked up a club in over three years. Granted, it was a foursome and there was the issue of accounting for our handicaps but we stayed within the established rules and won the darn thing. And there MAY have been one or two adult beverages involved.

On guitars: I am still a beginner, not a good player, but better than I was and I do seem to show progress albeit slowly. However, I am having a blast and that makes it worthwhile. Maybe an adult beverage might help this too?

My guitar inventory is creeping up again but I am playing. Leaving the country again soon. A guitar will accompany me.

Big fan of the Target end displays.

Probably on stage performing with her guitar somewhere.

Ouiji Board, three friends and several adult beverages.

Just couldn't do it! I was locked onto an Epiphone Masterbilt Guitar - Rosewood, etc. But after weeks of agonizing I came home with a used (old) Seagull S6 Mahogany Spruce which, not surprisingly, was priced within my sweetspot. The Epi was understandably well above where I like to operate. In the end I just couldn't do it.

Great story. I enjoy these opportunities also.

I'm am GASSING for a Rosewood guitar. Very likely to acquire one this week as I have the desire (GAS) and the object of my affection - the new Rosewood specimen. All I lack is the third leg of the nuclear triad: funding. But, alas, this should be corrected by Friday.
