Should I get that R8, or is it being greedy? I have plenty of guitars and I don't know if I will be able to gig again.

Big Al, as you know, I love darkbursts also. I've tried to pick the ones that are more tobacco or dark burst. Some, as you know, have more red in them than others, and so I didn't include some that had more red in them (relatively speaking, that is), or if they did have some red, at least with a dark outer ring color. Hope you like them!

Damn Mike, I think you deserve an episode on hoarders! :biggrin:

Glad to hear you're feeling better Big Al. Love that TBurst you just got and think you should get the WC if it makes you feel even better. :jim

From what I've seen on that television show, the folks profiled don't seem to have their "collections" very well organized.

Even though I have a lot of geetars, I don't think my music room compares to the typical "hoarders" episode.

But I'm okay if you want to call me an "accumulator" or "collector". :salude :2zone

Now, back to topic with Big Al Good Mojo! :dude:
