The joy of bonding with your Historic...

Studio91 · 07-20-10, 11:39 AM

Long story short...I am really feeling deep love for my 09 R8 lately. I'm talking about that feeling you get from time to time when everything just flows out naturally through your instrument. Never needing to tweak anything.... just wood, wire, and flesh making the noise one hears in their head.

Often I wondered if I'd ever get a Historic, having drooled over photos and descriptions here for years. My girl left a couple months back and I decided the time had come. After the trials of getting the guitar set to my needs, which kept me sane during tough weeks, I finally found everything in the sweet spot. OH the joy.

Last week I was diagnosed with an incurable fatal illness, which I'm working on getting more opinions on. But..during the days of wondering what will be, I find myself deeply grateful for this R8 hanging on the wall. I think everyone should get the opportunity to enjoy the things we dream of while they can.

I may not be a rich man, but I feel blessed to have the joy of playing guitar, something I took for granted the last 30 years.

Enjoy your Historics boys. Thanks for inspiring us lurkers to make the dream happen.

Enjoy brother, enjoy!!

I myself know that life is way too short!

Beautiful guitar. Hope your diagnosis is wrong and you live a full and long life.

Enjoy that fine guitar and take heart in knowing that a ton of your forum brothers will be praying for a better diagnosis and a rich long life for you. Hang in there my friend...

SedanDelivery · 07-20-10, 01:34 PM

I am truly impressed by your strength. Stay strong and go play that beautiful guitar! We will all be hoping for the best.

sidekick · 07-20-10, 02:14 PM

I'm sorry to read of your recent diagnosis.... ☹ Probably, most of us generally take our health for granted, when time, (in fact) is fleeting... Truth is, that, (even if we think are healthy) none of us knows what tomorrow may bring...

Continue to enjoy your fine guitar and meantime, I hope you can do some searching/get the right advice, (concerning the condition afflicting you) in the hope that some positive options might yet present.

Ryan Givhan · 07-20-10, 03:18 PM

i will pray for you and every time i play my R8 (which i have totally bonded with, so i know what you mean in your description) i will think of you and your optimism. stay strong my friend

Studio91 · 07-20-10, 03:22 PM

Thanks guys. I'm a pretty upbeat dude, so no time to waste not enjoying life. You just never know what's around the bend. I'm turning 40 this year, have lived an awesome life. Seen the some of the world, lived in the mountains and skied and hiked for 10 years now. Been living clean for 18 years of my life and loved some great women.

But...everything in my soul just loves guitars always has. Never figured out how to make a living with it, but who cares, I just love em.

Thanks for all the kind words...my situations means no matter what I do I get to enjoy the rest of my life and might be forced to hurry up and do those things I've put off. I know that when I am reading this and other forums, you guys know the deep connection I have for this instrument. Cheers.

dcooper · 07-20-10, 03:37 PM

Life's like a blink of an eye, all we can do is be the best we can an enjoy life.

I know how you feel about bonding with a great guitar, it's a very strong addiction. I often get cravings throughout the day that can be stronger than nicotine cravings when I used to smoke! ...if I go for a day without playing I feel like I've missed out on an important event and my day isn't complete... crazy huh?

Anyway it sounds like you've lived well, done some great/interesting things have no regrets, you can't ask for more than that... I wish you all the best.

bugman4214 · 07-20-10, 09:18 PM

hey man sounds like that clean living has changed your soul for the better, if you know what i mean,, iv been doing the clean thing for 15yrs now and life has never been better,, no matter how crazy i get with going through guitars,, its better than living like i was in the past,, keep playing that sweet R8 and rock on bro,,,

I'm at a loss for words man, great post. Prayers to you and your family.

LBR7 · 07-20-10, 10:27 PM

Really a great post. I understand you bond with guitars. Sometimes, the right guitar at the right time is a real blessing. I hope that guitar continues to take good care of you. And I will pray for your health and longevity. Your story sent chills down my spine that will not go away!

Manolian · 07-21-10, 05:01 AM

Hope your 2nd or 3rd diagnosis proves the first one wrong , good luck.

jholcomb · 07-21-10, 07:02 AM

Prayers to you and your family, good luck with the second and third opinions. We're with you!

PearlyLP · 07-21-10, 07:03 AM

This is really a very strong bond. Between you and your musical instrument...I cannot think of something more fulfilling.

Keep a high spirit, man. I pray that the diagnosis shows nothing serious.

Studio91 · 07-21-10, 08:22 AM

Playing guitar is such a meditative experience once you get solid chops. I always hoped one day I could pick up my guitar and my fingers would magically know what to do. What a gift to have reached that point. It's so hard to explain to my students how to bond with their instrument, except to eat, sleep, and dream with the thing....and 20 years of devotion.

Never knew I was a Les Paul guy, until coming across a nice Studio. It just missed something no matter what the modifications. The R8 nails all that I'd try to get out of the Studio. Might not be a looker, but I play eyes closed anyway.

Thanks for the well wishes. Got nothing but respect for this forum and it's members.

RUFFCUT · 07-21-10, 08:46 AM

Studio91, you seem to be the kind of man we should "all" aspire to be. Your strength and passion humbles me. God bless and thank you........

corpse · 07-21-10, 09:53 AM

I will pray for you Studio- it is all about attitude. You can fold up and die or realize life itself is a fatal disease, and all that we have is today. I celebrated 20 years sober this week- am reading Sermon on the Mount written in the 1930's by Emmet Fox. Pray with absolute confidence- pray and say thanks for the health you have today. Then go enjoy your day- then play some guitar and repeat.

EC1000 · 07-24-10, 04:31 PM

great post and like everyone else says, I hope your next diagnosis in much better. my wife just beat cancer this year after getting multiple negative diagnosis/ opinions from 3 different drs at the best places around here-so anything is possible. best of luck to you!

Electric Lloyd · 07-24-10, 05:32 PM

You are in my prayers bro, & don't ever stop looking for the right people to find a cure. I know, during this quest, you will not let a moment of life pass you by. You are living your best days. We all hope there are decades of them for you!

StSpider · 07-25-10, 11:36 AM

Nice guitar man, and my truly best wishes to you.

ScottsR9 · 07-25-10, 02:29 PM

Sorry to hear about your situation. Attitude is everything and sounds like you have a good one. Even if your diagnosis turns out to be wrong (and we all hope it does) get your bucket list together and go for it. When we arrive at life's finish line we should all come skidding across in a big broad slide, dirty and battered, torn and tattered, swing our kickstands down and knock the dirt off and say "Man! What a ride!!!"

professorfingers · 07-25-10, 04:33 PM

Sorry man,

Live life to it's fullest and don't give up.

Prayers and best wishes.

I'm not a religious person but I'll try as hard as I can to send a little good karma your way! Keep playing that beautiful guitar.

Marshallhead · 07-26-10, 07:40 AM

This thread shows us how fragile life can be.

My thought and prayers are with you Studio91.

God bless and play the hell out of that beautiful guitar! Music is great for the mind, body and soul.

shovelmanblues · 07-26-10, 08:54 AM

Enjoy it man. Enjoy

PHILBERT · 07-26-10, 02:37 PM

What a honey of a guitar!

So sorry to hear you are going through this. I pray the doctor is wrong. Stay positive and enjoy that fine guitar to the fullest.

Studio91 · 07-27-10, 08:17 AM

Thanks to all for the prayers and kind words. Had a second opinion yesterday and was given good news. Strong possibility of being misdiagnosed the first go around. Pretty sweet and still upsetting. Lots of work still to do getting things figured out.

Worst thing about what's going on is slowly losing strength in my hands. Playing guitar has been harder and harder over the last several years, but I never give up.

The point remains. Make the time to live and enjoy your life. No one ever spoke the last words, "I wish I'd put in more time at work." Unless maybe you are lucky to work at what you love. Here's to being on the right side of the ground for a while longer.

Tele52 · 07-27-10, 12:41 PM

That's a beautiful guitar, and thank you for sharing with us. You're in my thoughts and prayers. Don't give up, keep fighting, we're in your corner.

bluesjuke · 07-27-10, 02:50 PM

That second opinion is encouraging.
Hope all continues well and I pray for your Doctor's guidance & wisdom.

jholcomb · 07-27-10, 03:11 PM

Hang in there, we're all praying and pulling for you. You are an inspiration to others!!!

Top Gun · 07-27-10, 04:19 PM

Live long and play hard; enjoy your new R8. Thoughts & prayers are with you...
