1976 Takamine F 385 12 String. Found it at a Flea Market in Charlton, Mass. for 200.00. While out on a date. For what it`s worth, I also bought a ceramic kangaroo and a motorcycle helmet

It actually has a plug at the strap pin. I havent plugged it in yet to see if it works or not.
I plugged it in and the pickup works. Is that good or bad or original. I have no idea.

Re: What would you do? (22 replies, posted in Chordie's Chat Corner)
People have let me play their guitars. They didn`t have to. So I have no problem letting them try out mine. They are usually players that have the same respect for a guitar that I have. Plus, I am always there. They are usually extra careful with them. I have to tell them it is a guitar. Play it. If they should break a string, I replace it. If it gets a scratch, it is the chance I have to take. While it is your choice whether or not to let them play it. Don`t be surprised if they have something you would love to try out and you get refused. That goes for all my guitars. Whether it is my cheap Harmony to my White Falcon. I have gotten to try out some great guitars that I would never think of buying. So I return the favor.

Re: What would you do? (22 replies, posted in Chordie's Chat Corner)
Let her use it. Unless it is for any period of time. If it is only for a song or two, no problem. I have let others use mine without even asking. All they have to do is ask me how it plays. I hand it to them and say "See For Yourself".

I hope the picture comes in. If not, a little help. A Guild D 25-12 BLK. Made in Rhode Island. $50.00 with hardshell case. Has some damage but stays in tune.. Worth getting repaired. Plays well as it is.

If you find yourself lacking a guitar to rehab your fingertips on, there's likely to be one at a pawn shop or flea market you could acquire.
I`ll have to keep that in mind.LOL

With a Breedlove, a Martin, and a Guild, my guitars aren't what you're finding. I do my homework first. She's been supportive of my guitar habit. That said, I have to fit them all in my office, and with the three aforementioned guitars plus a fiddle, an autoharp, three amps, a PA, an electric Ibanez, and two electric basses, I've about reached my limit. There's space for one more guitar on the stand and I'm thinking a Taylor nylon string AE with a cutaway. Or possibly a The Loar archtop acoustic. It's hard to say. I better buy a quad rack instead of a triple and then I can get both.
Hmmm. What was the topic again?
I am still waiting to score one of those for a great price. I target people that don`t know what they are selling. Until I do, I will stick to MIM Strats. Plus, I do have a thing for Harmony`s in good shape. Call it reverse snobbery. I just love the cheap guitars from the 60s and 70s. I could go out and buy one. Half the fun is searching for them. I even ask myself, "How many can I play?? How many do I need?? When I get them home, there is no one to show them to. My "Go To" guitar right now is a Harmony Acoustic that I paid 30.00 for. Go figure.

Re: Guitar Center ?????? (20 replies, posted in Chordie's Chat Corner)
I go tonGC to look at used instruments. Otherwise, it is like Wal Mart for guitars. I always go to Union Music . Worcester, Mass for anything else. It is a chain of one store. They know me by name. They also have a great used selection. I would rather see them get my money instead of a big chain.

Topic: Stupid Question. Maybe Personal. (20 replies, posted in Chordie's Chat Corner)
What is your "Significant Others" reaction when you buy or bring home another Instrument or piece of equipment?? Good, Bad ?? My wife always used to say that she loved the look on my face when I found another guitar for a good price. She never got mad when I came home with one. Now I am dating again. The lady I am dating says the same thing. She says that I get a look like a kid with a new toy when I find a deal. It may be personal, what happens when all of you do the same thing?? Do you get yelled at?? Praised?? Or are they happy to see you happy to get a new piece??
