Okay, so I said I'd be getting rid of some guitars now that I got my brand spankin' new Breedlove Northwest, remember?
Well I decided to trade them in at guitar center. So I traded in my Gibson 185EC, my Breedlove SC20 Koa, and my Martin J-KWS signature and got a Collings OM1AC. A is for Adirondack, C is for cutaway. It also has a PUTW pickup installed.
I walked in and handed them three and walked out with one.
Like buttah, that guitar.
Picking up and playing the new Breedlove, putting it back down and grabbing the Collings and playing it, it's like dating two super models. You don't know which one is best, but who gives a crap? Just enjoy.
So on the way home, my wife calls me to get some chocolate milk for the kids. I park, take my guitar with me, put it in the cart and grocery shop with it. I got some strange looks, let me tell you.
I still have one or two to get rid of. I'll post something soon in swap meet.
I hope you put your Collins in the safety seat on that cart.
Now that's a man in love. :shock: :D
Life is not a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in a pretty and well preserved body, but rather to skid in broadside, thoroughly used up, totally worn out, and loudly proclaiming -- "WOW--What a Ride!"
Now that's a man in love. :shock: :D
... wouldn't call it love.

I feel so dirty.
Good, but dirty.
That's hilarious. And I thought I was too into the guitar when I take in from my car into work on cold days. But just for a grocery trip? Nick, you need some help! lol!
"Nothing...can take the place of persistence. Talent will not; nothing is more common than unsuccessful men with talent. Genius will not; unrewarded genius is almost a proverb. Education will not; the world is full of educated derelicts."
Enjoy the new guitar, Nick.

That is too funny Nick! I bet you not only got looks from fellow customers, but probably Security too. I can just hear it now, "OK, everyone be on alert! We have a customer walking through the store with what APPEARS to be a guitar case. Exercise extreme caution. There could be anything inside that case! Milhouse, you cover the cashiers. Collins, go to the Poultry section and await instructions. Fay Jung, go to Frozen Foods!
I have alerted the Police and a Swat Team is on the way! Be calm, do not excite or alarm this person in any way. We may be dealing with a complete looney here!"
They will probably use you for training films for years to come.

The first time I heard a Beatles song was "Let It Be." Some little kid was singing along with it: "Let it pee, let it pee" and pretending he was taking a leak. Hey, that's what happened, OK?-some guy
