Bill on SuFu is awesome. If you get comparisons to him, you're doing something right.

Haha yeah good eye for the Taylor Pick-Guard. Oh guitars are tough. Every ding, scratch, and imperfection just makes the music more yours.

I agree. All my neighbors were outside though...

Oh, no, no, no, no. I suppose you never put yours away in the case, either, right? God, I don't even have to ask.

Robert, would you ever buy a vintage guitar? I kind of understand about babying your shiny new guitar, but I just bought a 1969 Martin in played condition and it is sort of liberating to not be so worried about it, cause it is already checked and whatever. But sounds incredible.

I understand where you are coming from but . . . my guitars are in their case or in my hands, especially the vintage stuff.

Yeah, but I'm not sure 1969 is what I'd call vintage for a Martin. Sorry, I'm a snob about acoustics. I do have a 1994 Taylor 710 (I'm the sole owner, i.e., I bought it in 1994) that looks and sounds better with every passing year. BUT I keep it in its case when I'm not playing it, keep it humidified in the winter, and polish it when necessary. How a guitar looks isn't as important as how it sounds, obviously. But a good-sounding guitar that also looks good is a real treasure.

My point wasn't really about my own guitar (was not trying to brag about having a "vintage" Martin- I'm the opposite of a snob when it comes to guitars). My point was that having a guitar that has had accidents already happen is a bit calming. I hate the first time I bump a new guitar on the floor accidentally, or scratch it with a pick, or whatever. It is nice if all that stuff has already been done, so you don't have to worry about it.

Robert · Aug 13, 2009

Very true. The dings are inevitable if you play at all. I had a crying jag the first time I bumped my Taylor into one of the knobs on the case and got a small ding. Now that kind of thing hardly bothers me at all, though I do try to keep the damage to a minimum.

But yeah, for the right price and the right year and everything, I'd go for a vintage guitar, dings or no dings everything else being equal (good action, structurally sound, etc).

DLester · Aug 13, 2009

My concern is less with dings and more with having the guitar fall off the stand and watching the neck snap. My cat did that to a beater I had. I am not going to let it happen to the L5. It stays in the case.

Anyone else notice that Neofinitia's post are sort of approaching a weird "Face Off" like vibe to Phat Guido's persona?

shoreman: the jacket in the first picture is a beaufort, that was bought new a couple of years ago but the one in the second pic was my dad's first barbour buy in 84, I think, which is now mine. If it was better weather I would be rewaxing that one today, will post some pics when I get around to that

also whats the jacket your wearing, looks good!
