Hey it feels like "Cheers" in here....Norm! Sam! Woody....

I felt like I was talking to the walls over in the canyon of Washburn land. So I am tagging along....I mostly just read over there, and unless I have some stupid joke, or simply a witty observation, I don't usually say much. Most of you guys are smarter than I am about guitars anyway...but I like to read your comments, so here I am.

I've played for a while, but bass and vocals are my strong point. I finger-pick for my own enjoyment...at least till my nose gets sore! :thwap:

Hey Elk. Welcome aboard.

Cheers :beer:

Good point Monty. I never really thought about our impact on the existing dynamics here. Kind of like when a big group of kids from another neighborhood shows up on your favorite street corner.......

I think the great migration is awesome. I get to read about guitars that I otherwise wouldn't have heard about from some really friendly folks. What's not to like?:AOK:

All you new fretters are getting me to want to play more acoustic, and that's a good thing!:beer:

You've earned your keep with that'un. Welcome!

(reminder, never buy a used item from Monty ;))

On the subject of the Washout: We've enloyed it. Good folx & it keeps things interesting.

You should feel free to turn on the lights in acoustic sections & make yourself at home.

Thank you everyone...I am pleased to make your acquaintance....I would shake hands, buuut ....you know! As for buying used guitars from me...well the strings might be a little corroded, but that's the only way I can keep my kids out of my guitar case. With five kids playing guitar in the house, heck I'd never get a chance to play my guitar! Tell you what...I'll throw in a set of new strings if I ever decide to sell it though.

As for BBQ.... I've never met a Texan yet that couldn’t throw down a great bowl of chili, or BBQ worth fighting over! Have at it Shinner! As I recall, CB is quite the cook too!!!

Anyway…I am glad to be here….Now where do we talk about guitars, and what’s the rule about talking makes and models? Of course I love my Washburn, but I think there may be a Breedlove Atlas in my future…any Breedlove fans in here that can give me the low-down on an AD25/SR Plus?
